Best Western Plus Le Lavarin

“One night at Best Western Plus Le Lavarin is enough not sure what the plus is for.”

We booked the hotel as it was close to the Avignon TGV for an early start next day to catch a train that is a plus.

We booked the hotel as it was close to the Avignon TGV for an early start next day to catch a train that is a plus. Arriving at the hotel it has a large fortified electronic gate which made us feel it was not in the best part of town and is more in an industrial area and quite a ride back into Avignon town center. The swimming pool and grounds are nice on a hot day but the pool needs some maintenance. The room is on the smaller side but ok for one night. We decided to have dinner instaed of going back into town as we had dropped of our rental and this was a mistake. There appeared to be a shortage of staff took ages to order. There was a nice outdoor area but no tables set outside only inside on a lovely evenin. The food arrived and to be honest they need a new chef we had to leave most of our food so give the dining a miss.

“Worn around the edges, poor organisation”

I would qualify this hotel as 'passable'. Poor organisation in terms of welcome, breakfast, check-out. Infrastructure and rooms worn around the edges. Too expensive. Staff should go and visit the Mercure Avignon TGV to see how modern hotels are being run nowadays.

“OK but needs improvement”

Clean-Bed is hard, pillows no fluff. It was so hot in the room we left the door to the balcony open all the time. Seems the heating system was on and could not be monitored. Ie.

Clean-Bed is hard, pillows no fluff. It was so hot in the room we left the door to the balcony open all the time. Seems the heating system was on and could not be monitored. Ie. We could not use the A/C. Also pain the butt having to get out of your car & push the security button every time to want to enter the grounds. They should have a scan card system or put the button on the pole so that you don't have to get out of our car in the rain. Location: not good- you have to drive to everything. No restaurants within walking distance- it is quiet though Staff- are very nice, lovely cleaning staff Restaurant- is ok food, but high in $$ for what you get- Service was ok- Breakfast was included: ok for yogurt/fruit that sort of thing, but the scrambled eggs were either old and hard or undercooked, then left to go hard YUCK! Front Desk- is a hit and miss on service- ladies were great, but the man on duty one day could care less- How about a smile? Internet- not good Early check out and was not offered late check out. Balcony is a nice bonus. This would be a nice place in the summer for the grounds, but again you have to drive to everything
