Fantastic hotel with amazing views! It’s located in an amazing spot walking distance to shops, bars, restaurants and all the sights of beziers, the staff were great, the pool and bar/restaurant were very good and the hotel is very quirky! We stayed in the cellure room which again is quirky and clean but could use shampoo/condtioner in the shower instead of one soap for all! The cellure only has ceiling fan and if it’s hot a separate fan is needed which reception can provide. Definitely worth booking highly recommended

Absolutely fabulous stay. We stayed in one of the 'cellules' which was all we needed, it was immaculately clean, the bed was very comfortable and moving didn't disturb each other. The staff was exceptional; polite, professional, friendly and helpful. They allowed me to speak French without correcting me and spoke in perfect English when I floundered and then reverted to French. I wish we had booked breakfast as the meal times in Beziers are very much adhered to (in our experience).
