Arrondissement of Carcassonne, Occitanie hotel rooms at the Independent

"This hotel was rated highly and priced as though it was a high end property - it is not. It is an ancient chateau remodeled into a 1970s motel with amateur carpentry. Upon arrival the manager attempted to upsell us on-site breakfast and booking a dinner reservation through her website instead of showing us to our room. Our room was surprising, as it was not attractive or comfortable. There was a giant space heater to be plugged in because the proprietor turns off the heat at night - in December! The bathroom door was an ill fitting rolling door that did not provide privacy. We were happy to check out the next day. I could not recommend this hotel."

"Excellent hôtel excellente adresse nous y reviendrons sûrement tout était propre on a été accueilli très très bien dès notre arrivée c'est tellement rare maintenant d'être bien reçu qu'il faut le préciser la chambre est propre le hall et le restaurant aussi on a bien mangé rien à redire 10 sur 10"

"Very enjoyable stay with a lovely breakfast "

"La Bonne Planque is totally unique. Staying here was one of the best experiences we have had on our Europe trip. The setting right on the canal was beautiful and the perfect stop for cyclists on the Canal du Midi. Our host made us feel so welcome. We had delicious local food and wine for our evening meal and a lovely breakfast."

"Great pool, nice big unit for the five of us, and great end unit overlooking a field. Didn't feel that clean, however, an it was a little buggy (ants obviously, might have seen a mouse dropping under the sink, not 100% sure there weren't bedbugs or fleas or something else) but some of that can be due to being surrounded by nature as it was. As I said, the pool area was great, and the snack bar was a definite plus. Good location for exploring Carcassonne."

"The staff was very friendly and helpful. Our dining experience was lovely as was our beautiful room."
