The 5* staff at Le Mistral made all the difference during my 2nt stay. The red-haired daytime guy was a riot & deserves a big shout-out while Titouan saved me from some snafus during my last night. If French is not your thing, rest assured that both speak English. The cleaning lady was also very sweet & seems to clean all the rooms by herself!
Le Mistral's central location means a 5min walk up the street to Pl. de la Comedie. A surprisingly wide range of cuisines/restaurants, bars, boutiques, tourist info centre, sex shops, Monoprix/shopping centre, laundromats, tram, Gare St-Roch, and all the tourist sites are within walking distance. MP is a beautiful city so there is lots to see!
I had a comfy double room facing other peoples' windows w/a good-sized shower & weird pillow but I managed to sleep well. The room gets muggy esp after a shower but there is AC. There was also ample surface & storage space and more electrical sockets in all the right places than one could ever dream of (a rarity).
I did not have breakfast here but the dining room & facilities were very clean & well-maintained. The elevator is phone-booth tiny so be prepared to hold in your stomach & don't even think about getting in with friends - one suitcase MAX! Their luggage storage room is also secure unlike some hotels where it's one big free-for-all open to the public.
MP hotels are not cheap & I was not expecting too much from Le Mistral (no offense!) but they far exceeded my expectations!
