Carcassonne is a historic fortified city, which has been classified by UNESCO as a world heritage site for over 20 years. Despite attracting around four million visitors every year, the city, whose major sites were restored in the 19th Century, remains largely untouched by tourism, with its must-see attractions including the popular La Cite (the beautiful yet foreboding ramparts encircling the city) and its gateway, Porte Narbonnaise, as well as the Chateau Comtal, with its fantastic views over the countryside and distant Pyrenees. Accommodation in this fabulous city is widely available regardless of budget, and backpackers can take advantage of the multitude hostels within its walls or those in smaller, more peaceful villages just a few miles away.

A quiet and comfortable place to stay

Despite its central location (just a kilometer's walk from the station, and close to the historic center), this hostel does not feel as if it's in the middle of a city, with its two beautiful gardens and 'hidden-away' feel. Set in a 19th Century stone mansion, it retains many of its former features, and includes five quaintly-furnished guest houses across three stories. Guests cite comfortable beds, as well as the excellent breakfast provided by host Joel (willing to cater for various dietary requirements) as highlights. He will happily speak French with you if you want to practice, but is also comfortable in either English or Spanish.
