Hotels in Montpellier City Center, Montpellier

By far the best hostel I’ve stayed at in my trip across Europe. It was modern, clean and a really fun and environment. I was able to order a meal late at the restaurant downstairs which was great! The hostel dorms were also really nice and they also had privacy curtains which blocked out any light. The location is also super convenient as it is literally right next to the train station.

The hotel was lovely and the facilities were great. Our family had enough room to be comfortable and everything was clean and tastefully decorated. The location was perfect for travellers with the the main train station across the street and trams in front of the hotel, travel couldn't be easier. Even with transport right there we had a great night's sleep due to the double glazed windows.

I stayed at Montpellier's Appart'hotel Odalys Les Occitanes in October 2023. I loved so many things about the place. For example, the location is great, the rooms are spacious and clean, and the folks at the reception are friendly and very helpful. But I can't give the hotel a high rating because of one very important thing: Their front door is heavy and often stuck, making it difficult for most women to open it. Most men have no problem opening it. Take a moment and consider this problem. When you are traveling anywhere in the world, has it ever crossed your mind that the only entrance to the hotel may be impossible to enter because the door's too heavy? It's never crossed my mind. And it shouldn't. Entering your hotel easily is a pretty basic requirement of a hotel. After straining my back in trying to push the heavy door open, then having to stop a stranger on the street (to ask him to help me), I went to the reception to see if they could address the problem. Their hands were tied. Despite their sympathy, they could do nothing. Their only suggestion: Call us if you can't get in and someone will come to open it for you. Now take a moment to consider this: First, imagine you have travelled many hours to Montpellier, you arrive at night, you are jetlagged, and your phone doesn't work because you just landed and haven't had time to get a new SIM card. What are you supposed to do? I noticed to the left of the door, there is an intercom. But guess what? It's broken. Oh, and here's another issue. One night I returned to the hotel with another woman so together we could push the door open, but we noticed there was no one at reception. Probably had to attend to something else. So if that happens when you call, I guess you're out of luck. When I suggested a solution, ”Prop the door open,” I was told we can't do that for security reasons. So...any man from the street can push the door open but women cannot. So where's the security? And who is the security for? I want to stress that this problem is not caused by the wonderful people who work at the reception. They are frustrated as well by the door. It is the management of the hotel who needs to solve this problem. So for now, the Appart'Hotel Odalys is a great place for men but women beware.

The taxi from the Gare St Roche to the hotel took 20 minutes and cost 20 euros. (We later walked back to the station which was only a kilometre away) We arrived at the hotel at 1pm hoping we may be able to check in early. Instead we were advised to store our luggage at the hotel as check in was not until 4pm. This was deflating as it was a really hot day. There was little empathy shown by the staff. We checked in after 4pm and were advised what was prohibited plus a deposit of 250 euro was required. This was surprising as we were only staying for 13 hours. The room was ok with a tiny shower that was difficult to move in, a small kitchenette and 2 single beds pushed together. Staff were friendly but inflexible. The rate was reasonable but factor in taxi & public transport costs. Walking down the corridor to the room requires going through 4 or 5 doors where the lights go on after you go through the door and the earlier lights go off. It is eerie and reminded me of the kid in The Shining. Not a bad hotel, but not customer focused and a bit far from the centre of a very ordinary town.

The room was as spacious as advertised. Bed area separate from living area. Small bathroom but the good thing was WC and bathroom were separate. Compact but fairly well-equipped kitchen also completely separate from living area. Room was at the side of the building so only view was over a lane way, at least there was a nice balcony. Covered market over the road had pretty much everything needed for self-catering, including one of Montpellier's best wine stores. Close to CBD but not ideal for walking, fortunately the tram is right outside, frequent and inexpensive. Staff were quite good. But some simple requests weren't able to be met (eg. I asked for an extra pillow but there were none available). OK, but didn't feel quite as well looked after as we might have hoped.

Location was great, quiet area, 10 minute walk to train station and about 20 minute walk to Place de la comédie (the main square). Our room with double bed/bathroom was small but served our purpose well for a weekend stay (there are large lockers available on the ground floor where you can store things, just ask at Reception). Staff were helpful, friendly and genuinely interested in making our stay enjoyable. Breakfast buffet was exceptional, quality food, many homemade items - something for everyone. We ate in the restaurant several nights. Ambience is awesome and the service was always brilliant. Thank you JOSH for making our stay in Montpellier amazing, I hope we'll be back.

As much as I am keen in giving a five star rating, I am rather disappointed with the cleanliness of the room, particularly the bathroom. I just arrived from BCN and went out dinner then returned to wash my face - as soon I had dried using their towels, it smelled like poop as it wasn’t cleaned properly & it still has dried feces on it. Not to mention toilet wasn’t cleaned properly as it have remaining feces is inside it. I had complained and had transferred me to a room that had similar condition. A lady came to inspect the room I decided to stayed in as I decided not be transferred but was told toilet cannot be cleaned the way I had requested, which is remove the hardened feces, as it was some sort of calcium deposit. Totally ridiculous. Anyhow, the reception was accommodating & seems genuinely nice,& location was good as it is centrally located - near the main train station in Montpellier.

If you’re coming for one night on a business trip it’s absolutely fine. I thought the staff were polite, the bed was comfortable and the shower was good and the dressing gowns in the room Are a nice touch. Nice roof terrace I thought breakfast was overpriced for what it was - could have been a better selection. Bit weird that the toilet is separate to the main bathroom and the tea/coffee selection in the room isn’t very good. The room was also on the small side - not tiny but it felt a little small to me. Thought it was priced OK for business but not a good value option. I just think a few little tweaks would make it better - I feel like it’s trying to me a premium hotel but not quite making it

Again one of those places where I'd love to give half-star ratings (would give it a 3.5). The location is great, very close to the city center and some interesting places for food or drinks around. The staff was extremely friendly and provided us with recommendations about what to see during our stay (5 stars for the staff working there!). We booked the basic room so I knew a little what to expect. The room was small and basic and even though the mattress was comfortable, the bed itself needs some work (I think the mattress was a little too small so we hurt our legs a couple of times running into the corners of the bed). The bathroom was super tiny, even more than I expected. We had the courtyard ”view” which I might have interpreted a little differently but be aware that you could basically see into another persons' room. Nonetheless, you can open the window and get a little fresh air. The walls are also not the greatest, they seem to be quite thin. We had no issues with the lift next to us (as others mentioned it was too loud) but a little noise in the hallway could very well be heard in the room. I'm not sure what the general price is in Montpellier city center, I personally think it was a little high for what you get (apart from the location). Generally, we were happy with our stay for a couple of nights, it was what I expected and it fit our purpose. Thank you :)

Very good hotel good location for the south part of Montpellier, easy access to foot, tram or car. The hotel is located in the heart of the city centre, in the heart of the city centre. After that, it's quite impersonal, live your stay without having to do with the staff.
