The Best Cultural and Boutique Hotels to Book in Montpellier
With over 300 sunny days a year, some people visit Montpellier for its climate – but once here, you won’t be able to avoid the stunning 17th-century architecture that’s part of France’s glamourous history. Even the new parts are styled with panache – such as the Christian Lacroix-designed trams which shuttle around the city centre, connecting the Louis XIV buildings. Accommodation is equally elegant, and whether you want to be in the thick of the action in the old quarter or close to the Promenade du Peyrou, the choice of properties is comprehensive – all bookable on Culture Trip.

6. Hotel du Parc

The tranquil neighbourhood between the Beaux-Arts and Boutonnet districts has more residential properties than hotels, and Hôtel du Parc is revered by guests for its low-key location. Once owned by the family of Count Vivier de Chatelard, the manor house is conveniently located near public transport – but is just enough off the beaten track so you can appreciate the charming, serene 18th-century neighbourhood. Romantics will love the Victorian-styled rooms and harmonious colour scheme and glorious patio – where you can enjoy breakfast in the sun.
