Hotel de Paris Sète

Their signage looks cool but everything is well below the bar. Parking is on reservation only, limited places and not free. Booking.com claims there is parking but it’s not correct. This should be removed. 20€ per night! Rooms are clean but quite basic. No coffee, tea, kettle, mini fridge, extra loo roll etc. breakfast was standard, though they kept running out of everything from cups to croissants. I would have paid a bit extra for that better all round service.

We were travelling to Spain on november 2. Our car got a mayor mechanical problem, so we got towed of the Route du Soleil and needed a place to stay in Setes. We found this hotel which had room and we booked 2. Stayed the night there and started calling garages in the city to fix our car. Luckily there was a really nice female receptionist who helped us with the language because my French isnt to good. We couldnt find a garage who had time, so she called her boss to ask if he had any ideas. What then happened really surprised us. She was forbidden to help us any further. So a guest with a problem you are forbidden to help. We decided to walk to the local dealer and finally they agreed to help us. Before leaving the hotel for the walk, we explained to the receptionist we didnt know if we would leave that day or needed to stay another day. That was no problem, we could leave the luggage at the room and decide what to do when we came back. After coming back from the garage it was 11:55 AM, we told her we got help and could leave. She answered we had 5 minutes to leave the room and then it was just one night. Since we had packed already that was no problem. We got the luggage from the rooms and got at the reception before 12:00. In the minutes we were upstairs, her boss called and told her to credit a second night from our creditcard. No discussion possible. So we already had a terrible voyage, got really high towing costs and repair costs and now had to pay for a night we didn't stay. We travel a lot, but never had an experience like this. Hotel de Paris only want to cash in easy. Personnel is great, boss is a thief. Condition of the rooms is also not so good, dirty sheets, floors and showers. Would really not go here!

Location’s great but that’s just about all that’s positive. Breakfast mediocre, room barely adequate - bedside lamp was falling off the wall, safe wasn’t working upon arrival, problem evacuating water from the sink. When complained to the owner she was extremely arrogant and said “You’re not in a 5 star property, as if it’s acceptable to have problems when in a 3 star hotel. NEVER AGAIN 😱

Large room, air conditioning perfect, comfortable bed although not exactly a regular queen size (rather 2 beds put together). Overall impression nice and clean but nothing luxury, very minimalist. Reception nice and helpful, but no restaurant the day we arrived + lift was broken during our whole stay. Location of the hotel is perfect for a city break in Sete.

We had a wonderful stay. The room was lovely with a view of the canal. (Great soundproofing though!) ||The bed was super comfortable and the breakfast excellent. Only downside for us was that the wifi was down during our stay.

Staying here at the moment. Shower opens directly into the bedroom ie. no bathroom and everything, including the bar, is shut at 8 pm. Do not recommend!

On a tour from Toulouse to Montpellier and opted to stay in Sete for a day and one night. Hotel was in an ideal location and parking attached to the hotel available at a cheaper rate than public car parks. Bar and Wellness in hotel appeared closed - but with some much on offer nearby this did not matter. Reception staff were friendly and an unrequsted room upgrade was a nice touch.

Some reviews are a bit down on this place. We dont understand why as the rooms were fantastically comfortable and the staff very polite. We noticed some of the famous imperfections in the paintwork but couldnt care less when the bed is the best we have enjoyed in our vacation. A great choice when visiting Sete.
