Hôtel Mercure la Grande-Motte Port

The hotel seems to have seen better days. The staff was very friendly. Our room (first floor, no 114) was very poor. A shower that does not work well, paper cups instead of real coffee cups, a fridge that almost fell apart, a fitted carpet that did not look really hygienic. Is this stardard of a 4 star hotel? No, not really. The balcony was lovely, beautiful view on the port.

We stayed at the hotel for one night as we’re flying out of Montpelier, the location is wonderful. It’s very easy to find on the front of the harbour with private parking. The bed was comfortable and the balcony perfect to view the harbour and sit to catch some rays. The staff very helpful and nothing was too much trouble. We ate at the restaurant which was superb and delicious. Sadly the hotel itself is a little tired, a few chips in the sides in the room, the carpets are very old and look dirty, the air on didn’t work and the phone looked like it had come from the 90’s. Unfortunately as the air con was not working we got very hot in the night and my husband stupidly opened the balcony door for some air….huge mistake…we became a buffet for mosquito’s! They were brutal and subsequently we got very little sleep.
