Allthough we arrived later than "official" opening hours of his office, Philippe was extremely helpful. I have never got as detailed information of any place I have visited as he gave to us. Residence itself is excellent choice especially if you are travelling by car because they have really good underground parking. We had a room with patio and it... More

He was always available for help or guidance with lots of suggestions and knowledge of the area. The rooms were very comfortable with all the conveniences of home.

We stayed at the Thames Residence for 3 nights in early March and we thought the accommodations were first rate. Philippe was there to great us at about 11 AM and showed us to our room. It had a great sitting area, a kitchen (which we did not use), a very comfortable bedroom and a really nice bath. Philippe had... More

I can only back up some of the previous comments. Philippe, the manager, is a real pleasure to deal with. He was very kind and helpful. The place itself was great. Everything clean and fresh and with all the things one needs. It was strange though that the Thames apartments share the same building as the Grand Hotel in Avignon.... More

It's the first time we had such problem with Grand Hotel reception, but we can understand the situation when welcoming is done by trainees who don't already know exactly what to do ! We don't have such problem of course, Philippe answer all mails and welcome personally all guests staying in Avignon ! He like so much his "job" that... More

I hate to be the dissenting voice amongst five-star reviews, especially for the fact that Philippe, the manager, is a real pleasure to deal with. We found him very helpful both before check-in and during the stay. The residences themselves are clean and well-located just outside the walls of Avignon and underground parking can easily be arranged prior to check... More

Dear Guest, Thank you for your review ! Unfortunately, I do not sleep in the apartments we propose but we couldn't leave the situation like this ! Not because you said the mattress was too firm because most guests prefer to have firm mattress, it is better for the spine ! Firm would be ok, too firm is too much... More
