Carcassonne is a medieval treasure with countless experiences waiting to be uncovered. Here are four hacks to make your stay even better.
Fast Fact: Did you know? Nearly 85% of Carcassonne's hotels are within a short walk from the historic city center - like Hotel Montmorency & Spa, which offers views of the ancient ramparts.
Local Hack: At many local hotels, ask for "vin de pays" - some provide complimentary tastings of regional wines when you check in.
Hidden Gem: The Bastide Saint-Louis (just 10 mins from the citadel) features vibrant local markets that showcase crafts and fresh produce, often overlooked by tourists.
Smart Tip: Booking your stay mid-week? Hotels can be up to 25% cheaper as they cater to fewer travelers during this time.
