Château d'Avignon

Check in was efficient. Reception staff were friendly. The room was clean but could do with a good painting/ decorating. Plaster work unpainted in some parts. There had been some sort of an accidental maintenance incident so maybe we hit it at a bad time. Could do with two comfy chairs for the bedroom. Furniture and wardrobes had a cheap look to them but functional. Bathroom facilities were excellent. We loved the fact you could open the sash windows wide. At €18 a pop we didn’t take breakfast. I’d still recommend staying there highly for location beside train station and tram stops and if I am ever back in Montpellier it’s the first place I’d look to stay. Overall a good experience but probably just under 4 star level.

The gentleman behind receptionist was a excellent historian of Montpellier old town, He was able to guide us around on a map before we went to the old town. A pleasure to talk to in the English language, a real asset to the best western hotel at lattes.
