Packed in a hurry? Augment your wardrobe (or start over completely) with a stop at El Centre del Món (2 mins away).

Ideal spot in the centre, steps from Perpignan Cathedral and a 15-min drive from the Mediterranean.

Gardeny setting off the A9 motorway between Perpignan and Barcelona, with perks like a gift shop and playground for the kiddos.

A pretty, colourful space in the centre of town - but certainly close enough to the sea, too.

Steps from the beach with a soothing spa at your fingertips. Ready, set, me-time.

Inviting modern interiors are done up in blues, browns and greys. Bar, library and breakfast area are all equally stylish.

Nothing like a good ol' fashioned game of Marco Polo in the pool.

Onsite GourmetBar has great burgers and other tasty eats.

Want to live like the days-of-yore elite (but with way better comfort & mod cons)? This inside-the-citadel gem lets you.

Do the famous welcome cookies live up to the hype? Yes, yes they do.

Friendly accommodations ideally situated 10 minutes from the airport and 5 from the heart of Carcassonne.
