Holiday Rental Apartment in Montpellier, Herault, Languedoc, France Reviews

Wonderful apartment, location & hosts

Look no further for a homely apartment in Montpellier. A short walk from the centre of the old town and a shorter walk still to local bakery and shops, it's ideally located. Being a largely traffic free area, the apartment benefits from easy access (trams/railway/cycle hire are all a very short walk) whilst being quiet and free from car noise.

The apartment is spacious, well equipped, comfortable, clean and has a fabulous balcony for breakfasting/lounging in the sun (or under the canopy for shade).

Montpellier is an excellent location that wasn't previously on our radar - a beautiful old town with scenic squares for relaxing, old architecture and public gardens for sightseeing and a largely car-free centre that encourages pedestrians & cyclists. Its 'Velomagg' bike hire scheme, like Paris/London, allows easy and inexpensive access to bikes without having to find a hire shop. It's a flat, scenic hour-long ride along a riverbank cycle path to local beach towns.

Annie and Gilles are outstanding hosts. They're warm & welcoming, were helpful before and during our stay, greeted us at the railway station and were kind enough to drop us off at the airport at the end of our stay. We couldn't have asked for more. Merci beaucoup.
