Renovaded, updated, and very affordable
Hotel De L'Amphitheatre appears to be the latest "good hotel deal" in Arles.
It is now completely renovated, has air conditioning, and is getting some good reviews on the 'net.
Excellent location, right by Hotel Calendal and right off the Roman Arena, close to many of my favorite hangouts and restaurants in the old city.
Next time I might even be tempted to pay extra (if possible) for a night in the "Belvedere" suite (145 Euros /night) as it supposedly is a cool room with a 360-degree view of the rooftops of Arles. There are pix of it on the hotel website.
Definitely worth a try I think.
Here are the latest "TripAdvisor" reviews:Unique Quality: All rooms are air-conditioned now, Internet access in the lobby and a massage therapist (on call) - pretty luxurious for a 2-star in the old part of the city.
Location is one of my favorites, right by the arena at the "top" of the old city.
The prices are very reasonable, ranging from about 50 to about 80 Euro a night.
Petit dejeuner 5-EU / day, parking 7 EU / day ... again, quite affordable.
They have a website with lots of info (that sometimes loads slowly, due to the distinctly French well-intentioned-webmaster tendency to torture potential customers with too many slow-loading but fun flash & shockwave applets)
but it's worth waiting for.
Again, if it was me and based on location, raising price of Calendal and the current steep dollar-decline, this is likely where I would probably stay myself these days.

Arles + accommodation
Will be in Provence in mid-July. Would it be wise to have accommodation booked prior to arriving or ok to find reasonable places to stay on a day to day basis?
Thanks,
Linda
Re: Arles + accommodation
I think it depends on what sort of accomodations you'd like. If you want to stay in 3*** or 4**** places, I'd book ahead. It's a very popular time of year for tourists. There are some great hotels in Provence - and some towns are quite small without too many available rooms.
Re: Arles + accommodation
Last time I was in Arles, I was able to pick up a room in one of the small hotels near the station, without booking.
Consider that Arles is a major bullfighting centre and can get busy, though it's a remarkably un-touristy city, despite its great historical and cultural attractions.
www.accor.com is a good place to find accommodation at all price levels, though they're all pretty much identikit hotels. I don't really like suggesting the big chains in preference to the small family places, but Accor is a first rate operation and easy to deal with.
Re: Arles + accommodation
Last year I stayed at the Hotel Amphitheatre in Arles. In the center of everything and cheap. With the money you would save by staying there I would have a dinner at L'olivier (best restaurant in Arles).
