Montaut Holidays from NZ$848

We’ve stayed at a few pet friendly hotels over the years here as it’s our first stop over en route and this hotel is in a good location, overall clean and tidy . Breakfast is fine although I always think these continental breakfast’s are over priced .

The property is beautiful. Well designed and reasonable in size. You instantly feel a sense of home. Staff is very welcoming and easy to talk to.

This hotel had a historic feel with a convenient location by the train station for our very early morning train. Even though it is historic feeling, this place has a lift! I wasn't expecting that, so what a bonus, although the staircase is also lovely. It was a short walk to the historic downtown and loads of restaurants for the evening. And although the neighbourhood itself felt a bit seedy when we arrived it seemed safe. The shower was the smallest I think I've seen but it worked, and the room was really well appointed. We didn't do the breakfast because of the early train but it was offered. I think this was good value for money.

Top notch service across the board. Great breakfast, great ambience. Special thanks to Oliver the head concierge.

The first room #16 was totally unacceptable with damp and mold settling around the vent. Not at all what we were expecting. After complaining we were upgraded to the largest room in the hotel which is what we thought we would get in the first place. The best part of the experience was meeting the chef, Olivier Lataste who created sumptuous meals for us.
