The hotel has charming architecture and serves the best buillabase ever! Good service and child freindly. Nice view overloking the canal. Even parking nearby is quite fun in the basement of an old building.

The hotel is in a good location by the canals. It is a 'converted' merchants house. From each storey,you have a nice outlook to the breakfast area which was clearly once an inner courtyard but now enclosed by a glass roof. We opted for a superior room which was very spacious and gave splendid views over the canal in front... More

Our second visit. We booked a superior room which was pleasant and had an excellent view (see picture we have posted). Only cticism of room was that the beds and furniture seemed to be "none superior!" Breakfast OK not brilliant. we didn't dine in the restaurant but it looked good! Advise: make sure you book carparking. Without the hotel parking... More

Le Grand Hotel is one of Sete's better hotels. The hotel is housed in a century old-canal facing, traditional French multi-family building. Rooms all have external views (the canal-view rooms are best) and are built around an internal light well that houses the breakfast area. Rooms are smallish, but reasonably well appointed (for a European hotel!), and the bathrooms have... More

We stayed here for 2 nights in mid-October yet it was completely full up, which says a lot about the location and standard of accommodation. The room was spotlessly clean with quality linen and the double-glazing, french windows and shutters blocked out any noise from outside. The bathroom was very modern with lovely toiletries and, again, spotlessly clean. The welcome... More

Superb location. We had reserved a room directly overlooking the canal. It was a huge corner room with a magnificent view! Very comfortable. The hotel itself is been recently restored to a grand standard--expected to meet Hercule Poirot at any time! We ate only breakfast in the hotel--good choice of food. Somehow memorable.

A really great old-world hotel (+ modern frills, of course), set right on the Canal Midi in the heart of Sete (a lovely town in it's own right - not "south-of-france twee" - just edgy enough to make it an interesting port town) Best rooms are on the corner (we had room 221 with views all around - terrific.

We stayed at this hotel for a couple of nights in mid September. The hotel was full so we were lucky to be able to get in. The room we had faced the side street and was a good size. The location was great as it was close to a lot of great seafood restaurants. The only strange thing was... More

I stayed with my husband at Le Grand Hotel earlier this month for 3 nights. The hotel is located on the grand canal and close to shops, restaurants and some lovely patisseries. The hotel is quite grand and beautifully restored in the art nouveau style - it is simply stunning. I booked a shower room, and we were upgraded to... More
