Baron Vacations from $2,419

Very nice hotel by the station in the centre of Montpellier, convenient for walking to the Comedie and old town areas. Our room was clean and well appointed. We appreciated the coffee maker! Only issues were 1) headroom, a low ceiling beam above the beds and in the bathroom of in the room itself and high level boxing in the corridor outside (and I am only 1m80!). 2) for reduced mobility guests, while there is a lift the corridor to our room had two short stairs and when we arrived at about 16:30 the corridors were completely cluttered by vacuum cleaners and linen changing (see photo)

Superbe établissement. Spot magnifique. Environnement nature de grande qualité. Bâtisse remarquable. Personnel attentif et serviable. Petit dej au top. A ne pas manquer si vous passez dans la région

A lot of mosquitos

First impressions of the hotel were awful. On pulling into the parking area in front of the hotel, I thought, "Oh no. What have I done". The parking area felt unsafe. The hotel, and particularly the gardens, looked tired, dated and unkempt. It got worse. When we checked in, they had not got our reservation from Expedia so that took a while to sort out. We had paid extra for a better room but when we eventually got to the allocated room, it was a basic single - so we headed back to reception to get it changed. So why is this not a 1* review ? Once we were past the initial disappointment, we found that there was a separate, secure parking area. The room itself had been renovated and looked like the photos on Expedia. The bed was comfortable - so we got a great night's sleep. So, overall, we had to say that it was "OK".

The swimming pool is one of the nicest I’ve ever seen. Decent fitness room with a view of the water. Right across the street is a sandy beach right on the Mediterranean with clear, warm, calm water and very few people. Breakfast was delicious. All very good
