Grand Hôtel Nord-Pinus (restaurant and Bar Le Cintra)

Upscale historic hotel on the Place du Forum in Arles, with a restaurant and the Cintra bar. About a dozen Champagnes by the bottle, from A. Bergère, Bourgeois-Diaz and Drappier to Duval-Leroy and Joseph Perrier, with A. Bergère poured by the glass at both the restaurant and the bar. In the cooler months the restaurant is closed on Tuesday and Wednesday and mostly serves dinner on weekdays, so check before you go. Price level in 2026: a glass from around €17 ($20), bottles from around €80 ($90), several under €100.
