Ibis Budget Béziers Centre Palais Congres

This is a good no frills hotel with comfortable rooms in a prime location for exploring the village.

The Ibis Budget is well signposted on the main street (San Saens) with access via the entrance on a side street (Rue Racine) to the rear of the Mercure Hotel with whom it shares a bar/reception. We arrived by train and took the very pleasant (but reasonably steep) walk through the park area to the town. On arrival at the hotel it was midday but we were immediately allocated a room. The room was accessed via the elevator. At the time of our visit there were renovations taking place to the carpet and decor in the hallway but this did not cause any problems. The room was as expected for a budget hotel, compact but with all necessary facilities, toilet, shower and hand basin. Clothes storage was available and a desk area with small tv above. There was one English speaking channel (CNBC). Sadly the cooling system did not work at the time of our stay which for "Brits" meant an uncomfortably warm room to try and get to sleep. At least the windows opened and the location was quite quiet. Whilst I personally wouldnt "rush back" to the hotel, it was perfectly clean and safe and was a very reasonable price, so overall I would say that we "got what we paid for".

The most basic hotel ever The rooms are tiny The lack of a bathroom is very annoying The rooms are clean The breakfast is basic but actually nice The location is a bit off track The funny thing is it’s actually attached to a mecure hotel and it shares staff with that hotel The staff are very friendly but knowledge of tourists interests needs to improve
