Hospitable digs right off the motorway, with several restaurants nearby.

Witness history as your neighbor: your flat is at the foot of the Cité, a UNESCO-protected fortification around for quite a long while.

Inviting modern interiors are done up in blues, browns and greys. Bar, library and breakfast area are all equally stylish.

Incredible winery onsite – so obviously the cheery Mediterranean restaurant has a top-notch wine list (the rosé: do it).

Practice your best Phelps impression at the pool.

Onsite fitness centre & in-room kitchenette help you stick to the plan you made after that multi-course madness the night before.

Low-key stay that lets you blend in like a local (assuming you can fake the accent and refrain from snapping selfies).

Spacious rooms are subtle beige and brown with chirpy pops of robin-egg blue.

Tucked away within stunning Mediterranean parkland and perfectly placed close to the sea + the centre (win-win, right?).

Gardeny setting off the A9 motorway between Perpignan and Barcelona, with perks like a gift shop and playground for the kiddos.

Free WiFi satisfies both biz travelers and social media addicts.

A pretty, colourful space in the centre of town - but certainly close enough to the sea, too.

Just a short train or car ride from the city centre of Montpellier.

Packed in a hurry? Augment your wardrobe (or start over completely) with a stop at El Centre del Món (2 mins away).

In the mood for a leisurely lunch? Look no further than the hotel’s own eatery.
