Discover Orange
The Grand Hotel d'Orange is ideally located in the city so that you can easily reach the many Roman remains and historical monuments in the city on foot. The two most important witnesses of the Roman era in the city are the Arc de Triomphe and the Ancient Theater, both of which are UNESCO World Heritage Sites and only a 1.5 minute walk from the hotel.
In addition to the discovery of Orange's heritage, don't hesitate to get lost in the region and discover treasures that the whole world envies: the surrounding vineyards and their prestigious appellations, Avignon and the Popes' Palace, the Dentelles de Montmirail, l'Isle sur Sorgue, the Ochre trail...
So many reasons to extend your stay at the Grand Hôtel d'Orange.
For your trips and/or visits, think "ecomobility": bicycle, electric bicycle, city bus, small tourist train... You will limit your impact on the planet while discovering the charms of our heritage.
UNESCO World Heritage The Roman Theatre
Built under the reign of Augustus in the 1st century BC by the veterans of Julius Caesar's Second Legion, the Ancient Theatre is a striking testament to Roman civilization. It is one of the best-preserved Roman theatres in the world and still features its impressive outer wall (or stage wall) with the original elevation: 104 meters long and 35 meters high.
Today, the theatre hosts tens of thousands of spectators each year for various summer events, including the famous Chorégies.
The audio-guided tour brings the history of the monument to life; you can also discover the Museum of Art and History, which traces the rich history of Orange from Antiquity to the 20th century.
