marseille

For the fifth time already the same year, I stayed in a hotel in Marseille, about the best city I personally believe in the Mediterranean sea. From the beginning Marseille aimed at sea, to whom they are born the myth of thanks: the encounter between a Ligurian princess a Greek sailor. For centuries the maritime trade is essential for Marseille, the largest port in France. With a coastline of 57 kilometers of the city is also a meeting place of choice for athletes but also for swimmers to enjoy a very favorable climate. Many hotels in Marseille breathe an atmosphere that you find difficult elsewhere. If I had more art than elsewhere my heart’s content. As a multicultural city, the city is from its creation very many artists. Among those the city bezongen, filmed, described or outlined, are many national and international fame. But it is only since a few years that the city is aware of the creativity of its inhabitants and the economic importance of cultural activities connected. My Hotel Marseille was in the middle of the old city center, making it even more attractive, I suspect even that one of the best Marseille hotels should be. I can not say that a Hotel Marseille I certainly agree to return, maybe next year!

montpellier

Halfway between Spain and Italy, barely seven kilometers from the Mediterranean, Montpellier is a city that is very popular with the French. I had never been, but I left for 5 nights and 6 days in one of the best hotels in Montpellier, I had really very much sense in! With its narrow streets and sunny squares, famous international festivals and student festivities throughout the year, Montpellier breathes an atmosphere which many other cities can suck a tip. My Hotel Montpellier was in the middle of the city, which made me very easy to walk all the major attractions to explore. Montpellier showed everything in the house to have when it comes to quality of life. The facilities of a big city and found perfect harmony together with the typical mediterraansee joie de vivre. From my Hotel Montpellier I explored the wide pedestrian center, the many green, the ancient streets, the fragrant markets and so much more that the city so attractive created. Montpellier lives day and night, in the crowded squares, in many places and during the many festivals and concerts. Many hotels in Montpellier plays tourist assets perfect. I think about myself in the best hotels Montpellier stayed, a good time that I’ve had!
