TRES BIEN

Beau séjour. Fonctionnement atypique puisque qu'on récupère les clés dans un autre hôtel et on se retrouve tout seul, sans réception, avec clé à disposition sur une table. Chambre spacieuse, bien équipée avec plateau de courtoisie bien garni puisque pas de service petit-déjeuner sur place. En plein centre et entouré de bar et de restaurant.

Simple et bien situé, tranquille... très bien !

Agréable séjour en hiver, déjà du soleil, prix encore raisonnables, pas d'autres touristes :-). Hôtel ancien et sans prétention, coloré et récemment rénové, chambres petites, simples, propres et confortables. la plus belle et plus chère (ah oui elle est chère, c'est Palavas) est celle qui surplombe le canal, vue plongeante jusqu'à la mer, mais rideaux très symboliques, la nuit sera claire ! Au centre de Palavas, à 50 m du Transcanal (fermé en hiver), l'hôtel est situé à l'angle du canal et d'une petite rue en sens unique avec arrêt minute pour bagages, à 100 m des parkings du port, du casino et des plages. A savoir : pas d'accueil sur place mais clé et codes fournis. Mini plateau de dépannage petit déjeuner offert (sinon il faut sortir). Literie impeccable. Wifi au top.

on aimerait beaucoup pouvoir juger l'hotel sauf qu'en ayant quand même reserver une chambre dans cet hotel il etait fermé en renovation ! cela me semble un peu leger comme information, le petit dej etait compris alors effectivement on nous a remplacé par un autre hotel très bien c'est certain mais ou le ptidej etait à 9 euros par personne je trouve cela pas très honnete . voila c'est assez leger comme manière de faire j'ai même des photos du fameux hotel Tanagra face au canal et il est pas pret d'etre termine. nous avions aussi choisi celui la pour son emplacement c’est à dire vu sur le canal et l'hotel des ameriques , même si son confort n'a rien à redire n'a quand même pas le même emplacement puisqu'il est sur une route et loin de la mer. en tout cas pas de vue .c'est bien dommage et je le repete proche d'une belle malhonnêteté.

AVIS POSITIF. Hotel bien situé et très correct

Juste une nuit; nous étions de passage.Malgré une arrivée tardive, tout avait été prévu :code clé... Chambre grande et confortable, propre, avec vue sur le canal. Rapport qualité prix très correcte. Un petit plus le plateau d'accueil qui permet un en-cas avant un éventuel petit déjeuner; par contre si vous souhaitez un petit-déjeuner il faut sortir et aller à l'hôtel à coté; c'est moins sympa surtout s'il fait froid, ce qui fut notre cas.

Miellyttävä hotelli keskellä kaupunkia

Lähellä merenrantaa oleva viihtyisä hotelli. Vastaanottopalvelut Americanos hotellissa, jossa erittäin ystävällinen ja miellyttävä palvelu. Siellä osattiin myös englantia. Tanagralta on hyvin lyhyt matka merenrantaan, ja sijainti erinomaisesti kaupungin keskustassa. Alueella hyvät polkupyöräyhteydet ja liikkuminen sujui helpoiten pyörällä.
