The city landmark and a major cultural setting.
Charming guest house · Avignon within the city walls
La Banasterie
A historic house at the foot of the Palais des Papes, made for discovering Avignon on foot: its heritage, restaurants, lively squares and the calm of a lived-in home.
50 metres from the Palais des Papes
A place to experience Avignon from within
Veronique and Fabrice welcome guests to a sixteenth-century house with rooms, suites and an apartment, each with a carefully composed atmosphere. La Banasterie brings together old stone, original staircases, a central patio and sitting rooms where guests can slow down between walks.
The immersion begins as soon as you step outside: Place des Chataignes, La Manutention, the Palais des Papes, Jardin des Doms, Pont Saint-Benezet and the restaurants of the historic centre are all reached on foot.
