Montpellier: top accommodation options for families

Montpellier is an ideal destination for families looking for a holiday that combines the city with nature. The Occitanie metropolis is just a few kilometres from beaches and seaside resorts such as Palavas-Les-Flots and Le Grau-du-Roi. It is also very close to some exceptional natural sites, such as Salagou Lake and the Cascade de la Vis. In town, the many squares give children plenty of space to play near the fountains and merry-go-rounds. But for large families, the choice of accommodation can sometimes be complicated. Comfort, outdoor facilities, location and budget are all important criteria. We've selected 5 accommodation options that will meet your requirements and make your family holiday a great one.
