  • We enjoyed our week in your Beaucaire apartment.John and Lisa were pleasantly efficient and helpful as we settled in and out of Hotel Luxembourg. It is indeed comfortable and well-equipped with kitchen, bathrooms, washer, garage space, computer and plenty of books. J It was also an excellent place to just reside. We enjoyed walking around---- finding the PO, the multiple markets,the fine castle, the special baker, the bottle recycling container, and, of course, the dragon in the square. Every evening we walked along the dike, listening to conversations in French, in Arabic, in other languages as the stars came out. It seemed that we were truly in the France of the medieval days as well as in 2009. Thank you for making an easy introduction to such a fascinating place. Best wishes to John and Lisa and to you both. Sincerely, Ann and Pug

  • What a wonderful place to stay! We found the apartment in Beaucaire quite spacious and offering all the amenities of home (English-language television, Internet access, modern kitchen and the two bathrooms a major asset!) PLUS a lovely veranda on which we took our leisurely meals while enjoying a pleasant breeze from the Rhone. The town of Beaucaire itself gave us a sense of being in the midst of authentic small town France, surrounded by local people instead of tourists, yet we could reach such traditional tourist destinations as Arles, St. Remy, Avignon and Les Baux surprisingly easily by car. We were delighted to find that the train station in Tarascon just across the bridge (a 15 minute walk) gave us easy access to many locations (such as Marseilles and Avignon) by public transportation as well. A magical experience for us - we do so look forward to visiting again.

  • We had a fantastic time in Beaucaire...made perfect by staying in your wonderful apartment. Travelling with 2 teenage daughters, we appreciated the extra space of having 3 bedrooms and 2 toilets (and of course the computer). The clean, modern new kitchen was equipped with everything that we needed. We loved the huge terrace and had most of our meals on it. The location was great...we could walk to the outdoor market as well as to the grocery store, post office, tourist information centre etc. We loved the sleepy atmosphere of Beaucaire...it truely did feel like a piece of Heaven!

    Just wanted to tell you what a great time we had in Beaucaire and your cheerful, spacious apartment. Traveling with three 16-y.o. girls was heavily weighted towards seeking out markets far and wide -- and their sleeping in until noon whenever possible -- but the location was perfect. Besides Tarascon, we also visited St. Remy, Arles, Les Baux, Pont du Gard, Aix-en-Provence, and Avignon before heading to Paris. I loved the old windows and shutters and the quiet view across the street, the great shower and having two toilets! Our daughter loved that it was close to the water and was so photogenic (she's into photography). The girls especially liked having access to a computer (and, of course, would have liked to have access to the full range of Sky TV...Can't say that I missed it, however.)

  • What a wonderful apartment! Hotel Luxembourg is a stunning historical building with a beautiful terrace. The apartment is spacious, extremely comfortable and all of the amenities (computer, washing machine, parking area) helped us maximize our time for exploring the sights of the region. We were there for 7 days in May, with near perfect weather, and especially appreciated the genuine, non-touristy aspect of the town with its lively market and beautiful canal. Great vacation and we can't wait to return. Karen and Ted

  • We spent 7 days just before Easter in the apartement and thought it was great. Beaucaire was quiet but very attractive and medieval, in the process of renovation to reveal some very characterful buildings. Enough bars, shops, restos, and markets to keep us busy, and easy access by bus or train to Arles when we wanted crowds. We arrived by TGV to Avignon and taxied from there, but on the way back went on the dedicated bus from Tarascon, feeling more confident about it. WiFi much used by Facebookers, all other facilities good, and decor pleasant without being fussy.

  • We really enjoyed staying at Hôtel Luxembourg. The flat is delightful! The weather was a bit mixed (two days of rain, two days beautiful one day mixed etc) so it was especially nice to have a comfortable, roomy, well equipped and warm place to come home to. We found the old town of Beaucaire very interesting and the history fascinating – it was easy to imagine how it looked a few hundred years ago. We rate this flat as 'Highly Recommended'.
