Relais Royal Hotel & Restaurant

In the heart of medieval Mirepoix, near Carcassonne, Relais Royal Hotel & Restaurant is more than just majestic in name.

Nearly all of the original features were resurrected, including stunning terracotta tiled floors, wooden ceilings, marble and stone fireplaces and Louis XIV nutwood doors. A member of the prestigious Relais & Chateaux group, this 18th-century French masterpiece resides in harmony with its historical setting.
