Every room of this 5-star luxury hotel is individually decorated with historic French cotton prints: La Rivière enchantée, La Roseraie, Le Grand Corail, Le Bambou, La Corne d’abondance, Le Perroquet, Le Singe savant..., the very names of the great cotton prints of the past are an invitation to travel.
A unique charm marks the walls of this historical monument, a heritage that takes us back in time to the 18th century, the century of all the enchantments, the heritage of Avignon & Provence.
La Mirande is utterly romantic not least in its unique location directly adjacent to the eastern facade of the Popes’ Palace which is visible from almost every room as well as from the beautiful garden.
Breakfast buffet, composed of local and organic products, is served either in the Louis XV garden room or in the garden itself at the foot of the Popes’ Palace. Breakfast can also be taken in the room.
Within the luxury 5-star hotel, Florent Pietravalle is exploring with his well assessed craftsmanship the bewildering savours of Provence’s bountiful food supply. The shorter the transport, the riper the sun-drenched local fruit and vegetables to accompany meat and fish…Florent mainly collaborates with local producers near Avignon.
Florent mainly collaborates with local suppliers sharing the same ecological vision as the spirit of La Mirande.
Florent’s “relaxed” and “à la carte” alternative to the gourmet restaurant, served in the garden room or on the adjacent terrace next to the Popes Palace.
