“Old style hotel, good central location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 August 2011

WE arrived by train & got a taxi to the hotel which was "up the hill"only because of our luggage, otherwise it is a lovely 15-20 minute walk.
The hotel is lovely old world style, with comfy chesterfield lounges in the reception-bar area. Very helpful staff & centrally located. The rooms are average size, although the toilet was like a wardrobe, & you couldn't close the door until you sat!! All fun though!!
Even though the hotel is on the rambla we did have trouble finding somewhere for dinner the first night, but when we did it was lovely (it was a Tuesday night) everyother night there was much more open, just keep wandering around up & down the little streets.
We had 2 rooms on the first floor & overlooked the charming little courtyard, which is lovely for an afternoon drink! There is also a lift.
We did a day trip to Sete on the train, so pleased we did, a very pretty place. It was Wednesday & there was a great market on when we arrived.
The next day we did a day trip to Pezenas on the local bus, beautful & very old. If you go make sure you go to the tourist bureau & do the walk of the "old section" which dates back to the 1100's & 1200's

“Best in Beziers, as far as i could see”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 March 2011

people found this review helpful

On a cheapie Ryanair flight, we decided to stay in Beziers which honestly is a one-horse town, with about 30% of the shops closed and not really much going on. This hotel is old world, charming reception people, as centrally located as you could want and a balcony room overlooking the front was charming and quiet. Only French channels on the TV, and no restaurants to speak of in the town (or bars either) means early nights. I would stay there again if in the town, but there was very little to do there. I didnt have breakfast there but there was a charming courtyard.

“Decent hotel - good location.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 September 2010

person found this review helpful

Our room was quite big with a very nice, large window overlooking the courtyard area. The room was clean although it was not cleaned every day of our stay (which I didn't mind but I don't think is standard). The location is very good for both the train and bus stations and the older part of town (cathedral etc...).
The reception staff were pleasant and it was very convenient that it was open 24 hours.

“Family Room - Basic but Double Room - Perfect!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 August 2010
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed here twice this year. In July as a family and August just as a couple.

The hotel is on the main drag of bars/restaurants but it is quiet at the back (on to lots of jumbly rooftiles and ivy clad walls!) and the lovely high old style front windows are secondary glazed so with both window layes and shutters closed you don't hear a thing!

Our first stay was BASIC! The family room had a double, single and puul out. ....and a TV! A separate WC and bathroom - both clean but rudimentary. Just as most French hotels were 15 years ago! We didn't hang around for breakie as we were on a bit of mission to catch our next connection and shopped at monoprix diagonally opposite for picnic breakfast! Fine!

Second stay (we'd lost kids to granny and granpa!) was much nicer in large, attractive and super comfy kingsize bed and we stayed for breakfast which was standard continental (but no ham/cheese) Great value stay. Nicer bars and restaurants than the ones close by though - go seek!

The lovely owners even found my lost mastercard and kept it safe for me until our return - THANKS

“Good location but room and cleanliness let it down”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 August 2010
1
person found this review helpful

I stayed for 3 nights in July. The room was on the small-ish side but OK. It had a pretty old fashioned window overlooking the breakfast/garden area but the floor underneath the window was dirty and looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a while. The room was dusty and again looked like it hadn't been cleaned recently. The bathroom was old and grubby looking - it could do with a major overhaul. Shower was tiny, with an undesirable shower curtain. The toilet was separate and had a weird sliding door that I refused to close as it felt like being encased in a coffin, it was so small. I saw a silverfish crawling around the floor of the toilet - another unappetising feature.
My guidebook had described this as a 'de luxe' choice in Beziers and that it was one of the better hotels which I did think was unusual at the €75 room rate. The room let this hotel down which was a pity as the hotel does have an olde world charm about it and I loved the stiff night porter who dressed immaculately in his suit each night. Reception staff were friendly. Breakfast was €8 and was fine - selection of cereals, bread etc.
The location is great - right on the main thoroughfare of Beziers and, as it was festival time, there was a market here every day.
From reading other reviews, looks like some rooms have been recently done up so if I were to stay here again I'd ask for one of those.
I wouldn't necessarily recommend this hotel but I would stay here again
