Novotel Suites Montpellier

We had an excellent stay , the hotel is close to city centre and public transport so we were able to walk around and visit Xmas market. Very helpful and welcoming staffs at reception.

When on business you need the basics, a clean and comfortable room, working internet and good food. That this hotel exceeded expectations on all fronts and has an excellent location means 9/10 from me.

small room and certainly not a suite!!!.Soap holders in bathroom were empty!!!! Air con not working

We are quite astounded at the unfounded criticism expressed by some on here. We stayed here for 5 nights last week and had a wonderful experience. From the warm welcome by all staff and their efforts to understand my awful French to their wonderful English, nothing was too much trouble, they were a delight. The foyer and breakfast rooms are spacious with a bar included. There is an ample terrace with a fabulous pool which we used daily. Everything flows and is open plan. They decorated it all for Halloween which was appreciated and fun. There is an interactive Photo machine by the lifts where you can take a free souvenir. Breakfast was scrummy, a mix of hot and continental, you can even fry your own eggs at a station, plentiful and very high quality. There are meal options in the foyer for you to take to your room to reheat, a bit pricey but handy as there is no restaurant for lunch or evening options. Our room was huge, L-shaped, great big comfy bed, and lots of windows to open with a view of the pool. Small kitchen area with treats that are replenished daily, The fridge is really cold with bottled water supplied. Table and chairs and lounge chairs also. A safe and plenty of hangers and storage. The bathroom is large, with a wet room set up which was perfect for us. all toiletries are supplied and very tastefully decorated in a minimalist style. One fly in the ointment is the lack of air conditioning, it has it but it wasn't working and the room was warm, however, we were supplied with a fan. They need to look at this seriously. The suites are in the more modern area of the city with great tram transport very close by. 5 minutes away there is a very pleasing strolling area with a river, restaurants and fabulous modern architecture, lots of places to sit. This was our first visit to Montpellier, it will not be our last. It has everything sprinkled with Frenchenss of course with a scattering of Spanishness thrown in. 20 minutes to the coast, it is differently quaint with a vibrant beach life, we even swam in the ocean in October. Loved our trip and these suites, take the negative comments with a pinch of salt, this is a gem..

Really loved the suites. Used the pool every day. Breakfast was very good but the quality of items could be improved such as the cooked meat it was very tasteless and bland and the baked goods seemed to have been cooked from frozen. The biggest issue is the Aircon doesn't work and the rooms are very stuffy. I was given a fan which helped a little, opening the windows meant the road noise was deafening.
