A lovely surprise but probably best to take a taxi as it is a steep walk! I was given a superior room upgrade and next time I will happily pay for that. The view was magnificent. The rooms are VERY basic and a bit short on power outlets but full of character. Staff lovely.

Staying in a former prison cell was a unique experience! It's all very comfortable but still retained lots of recognisable aspects of the prison. Fantastic 😍

Excellent room with a beautiful view. Very comfortable bed. The staff were excellent and very friendly. The restaurant had excellent service and the food was phenomenal. They also have a terrace where it is lovely to have a wine by glass and enjoy the view. Excellent accessibility from the ground level as there were several elevators to avoid walking up steep hills. Would absolutely recommend this hotel if staying in Beziers.

6/10 Good

This could be an incredible hotel, the building itself is iconic, with incredible views and has been finished to a high level n a boutique style. If stayed before with my daughter and rebooked with my wife because I wanted her to experience the place but it was just so disappointing. Firstly the restaurant/bar were closed on a Monday/Tuesday so wasn’t open the days we were staying, I understand they might have this listed somewhere but I didn’t realise until being sent the details the day before and, although I can appreciate not doing a food service with no customers I don’t know why they wouldn’t open the bar for residents, we would have loved to have had a drink in the evening and experience the views. Secondly the service is a just pretty lacklustre. Stuff like breakfast not kept stocked up; pretty early in service and eggs left from the beginning of service etc. mistakes on checkout about paying for breakfast (we had B&B) and other charges. I asked for an extension cord for a medical device, as I was leaving the building, and was handed it rather than one of the 3 staff offering to take it to the room etc. The staff were fine, generally professional and polite; so maybe I’m being unfair, but it was just a series of small poor efforts with no smile or willingness to go above and beyond. I’d describe it as budget hotel service in a high end boutique setting and we just found it disappointing. Could be so much better with some higher standards and care.

10/10 Exceptional

We received a wonderfully warm welcome from staff pursuing the highest standards of customer care and engagement. The Hotel la Prison is part boutique hotel, part immersive cultural experience, part modern art gallery. And the sum of the parts is a unique hotel experience. Really enjoyed the quality of the breakfast, even if range limited (curated!), in the attached bistro and the ambition in the evening meal we had in the same location.
The compact gym: with (soft toy) rabbit model.
Art Walls - part enrichment of rooms, part gallery.
Intriguing and immersive artworks on display.

The Hotel La Prison is a very quirky place to stay. Cells have been converted to rooms. Our room was on the 4th floor with amazing view but not part of cell block. Room was spacious with good bathroom- no fridge in the room and pool was very green and didn’t look too inviting to swim in. Staff were pleasant and helpful Drinks on the balcony lovely A great stay
