Hôtel La Prison

This is a great place to stay. Very good location. Spectacular views. A lovely restaurant which we didn't get to try because it was fully booked! The rooms are necessarily quirky but surprisingly comfortable. There are good options to eat nearby. The staff were very helpful and I would definitely stay here again if I had the opportunity to visit Béziers again.

Breakfast wasn't great! No orange juice; no breakfast tea. The staff appeared disinterested.

The location and the views

Black mould in shower, peeling paint , no bottled water even though machine was broken . The outdoor pool had lots of stuff in it and looked like it wasn’t safe to swim in , so we didn’t.

Great location and lovely transformation of the building. Breakfast and bistro both very good and staff were all lovely. However I would only stay again in winter or in a room with A/C. Our twin with ceiling fan was unbearably hot in July. Pool was great for cooling off but would recommend A/C rooms if visiting in summer as it is roasting hot.

No A/C in twin rooms.

The location was perfect and the room large but lacking in amenities

This is a hotel that seems to put form before function. There is a lot of artwork but the towels were small and rough. Despite paying more for a deluxe double there was no air conditioning and we checked out early after a very uncomfortable night. No conditioner, no shower cap and not even water offered. Every other hotel we stayed at offered us water. The staff were unfriendly too. They claim that it wasn't possible to have air-con due to the architecture of the building but alternatives to the ineffective ceiling fan were definitely possible. The restaurant and bar was closed on both nights of our stay during the summer season - again not helpful for guests. Sadly overall a very poor experience especially as we had been looking forward to staying here.
