Picked up hire car at the Airport and took around 1 hour to locate the hotel, driving around Montpellier is a nightmare ! The Chateau would have been in a beautiful place over 50 years ago, now the motorway is very close and the noise carries all the time. We stayed in the annex the architecture of which can only be described as seriously wierd, don't they having planning here ? Anyway step inside and the room/suite was very nice, spacious and well equipped, the Chateau itself is an imposing building. Facilities are in short supply, no food/drink on Sundays/Mondays or bank holidays, the pool area is OK however it rained while we were there, the golf is,I think, a joke!
On the whole not bad considering all things, taxi to Montpellier is about £10/£12 and worth it to avoid the driving/parking issues.

We used an RCI Timeshare swop to book this hotel. The website pictures and blurb need to be taken with a pinch of salt. This hotel is on the industral outskirts of Montpellier and very close to a busy and noisy highway. Accommodation is split between the Chateau itself and a 4 storey annex. Our room in the annex was fairly spacious with a tiny bedroom area, lounge area and a useful kitchenette. The balcony was a great asset. We could not find the hotel address on any of our maps and we used Maporama to locate it. We drove around for over three hours from the Montpellier Station before we stumbled, totally exhausted, on it by pure chance. It was a Sunday night and the restaurant was closed. The very helpful staff directed us to the nearest restaurant, a golfing resort nearby. Understandably, we were rather nervous of venturing out in our hired car without a map. The hotel called an efficient cab service but we were gobsmacked by the cost of our return taxi fare. You definitely need a car and nerves of steel to head out of the hotel into the countryside which is a long drive in seriously congested traffic.
The acceptable, attractive accommodation was marred by a lack of cleanliness. The carpet was was badly stained. Furniture likewise. The staff however were delightful and most helpful. The Restaurant was above average with interesting well presented dishes. Visitors however need to be aware that this hotel really is out of the way unless you intend to vist Montpellier, which, once you find your way is probably no more than a 20 to 30 minute drive. If the beach is your preference, be prepared for a two hour return journey with major delays in peak hour - most of the day.

I only wish I'd read the reviews on this site before I booked to stay at what I can only describe as the french equivalent of Fawlty Towers. The website is so misleading I am going to write a letter of complaint to the french chamber of commerce/trading standards.

This is an overpriced apartment block miles from anywhere. We seriously felt like we were staying in a closed hotel and there only seemed to be one member of staff. The website shows a luxurious hotel with a beautiful pool and lots of leisure facilities including a golf course and fitness centre. There was no fitness centre or golf course and the pool was the size of a paddling pool. 10/10 for the photographer who made it look olympic size. It was also right next to a major motor way so sitting by the paddling pool was not 'tranquil' at all.

The restaurant was closed on the Sunday and Monday the only two nights we were - you could not even get lunch, a snack or a drink. We were told there was a Mcdonalds and a shop about 20 minutes walk down the lane! The nearest shop is Lidl on what looked like a french Council estate. We spent over 150 Euros on Taxis into Montpellier.

Disappointing was not the word me and my boyfriend felt like we had been completely conned. We tried to find another hotel for the 2nd night but everywhere was fully booked so we had to endure our second night there. When we checked out I asked to see the manager I was told she was busy. When I complined about the complete lack of services the receptionist simply agreed with me - she was clearly used to complaints! She then tried to tell me it was not a hotel but a residence. The room rate was 170 Euros per night we manged to get it down to 130 Euros but even then it was complete waste of money. Do not be even slightly tempted to go here this has to be the worst hotel in Montpellier.

We were booked to stay for 7 nights but left after 3. Even though this meant us losing money we just had to get out. The pictures in the brochure make it look lovely - I'll never trust pictures again! The brochure says it's in a 'green wooded setting' - actually it's annoyingly close to a motorway (probably the least of its problems), with a few trees around it, but certainly no woods that you can reach.
Apparently it's 'overlooking vineyards' - not that I could see and I spent 3 long long days looking. 'Away from the city' is actually on the dirty outskirts so you are too far from the city centre for convinience but not near any nice countryside or villages. You REALLY DO need your own car - we spent a fortune on taxi's.
The restaraunt is supposed to feature 'authentic products from the region' - we never found out because it was either always fully booked or closed. The rooms are advertised as 'sunny suites' - ours hadn't seen the sunshine in it's life! We needed a torch to get the key in the door - no joke! On the subject of doors the bathroom door would not even shut. The mini-bar was a basket with a few overpriced bread sticks, peanuts and cans of drink.
The fitness suite was a shed with very little equipment in it. We never managed to find the bar. The putting course was overgrown and unplayable. There was also some bizarre wooden slatted structure around the second building that would prevent any escape in the event of a fire. The laundry room was out of order, the breakfast was desperately over priced for the poor food on offer, and served in an even more depressing room than the rest of the hotel.
On the plus side, the staff were actually quite freindly and reasonably helpfull, and the main building is quite nice - it's just spoilt by the location, the inside, and the fact that they advertise it as something it is definately not.
