Architecturally brilliant conversion of an ancient prison into a modern hotel. Lots to like about the style, a combination of ancient, brutalist and ultra-chic minimalism. But the room we were in was somewhat disappointing (though my wife thought it OK). We were not in one of the converted cells, so they might be different. Our corner room seemed to be an old office or admin space. There was no place handy to plug in a phone charger. The plug was UNDER a table, and to access it, one had to crawl on the hard concrete floor under the table which was fixed to the wall. Not so easy when you're not as lithe as you used to be. Cold floors, with some rug cover. But the overall feeling was a little bleak. Also, the restaurant (and the bar) were closed on Sunday and Monday. I can understand the restaurant not being open 7days, but the bar?? A street map/A4printed sheet of the town, perhaps with visiting suggestions, would have been a nice touch too.

In the cell block, it sounded like a prison, with the noise reverberating through the entirieof space, and the open vents part of the original prison let the noise of the city in. Resaurant shut Monday and Tuesday, not great, and so few good restraunts available close by, they get booked out.

What an amazing place! Not just a unique place to stay, but in a great location. Very friendly staff... Rooms are not huge, what do you expect with a cell, but the bathrooms are spacious. Our room was 'decorated', but not all are. Amazing art all around the hotel. We did not use the bistro as it was closed but enjoyed the breakfast buffet, lovely jam!

Had a very enjoyable 3 night stay at Hotel La Prison. We stayed in a standard cell which had amazing views over the valley and river, modern en suite and very comfortable bed. The hotel has been beautifully modernised, keeping many historic aspects with modern art, quirky sculptures and gorgeous views from the pool and hotel exterior. The hotel sits next to a stunning cathedral, and walking distance to narrow cobbled streets, restaurants and pretty squares. The hotel restaurant was closed for dinner during our stay but we had breakfast which was well stocked with continental meats, cheese, mini pastries, scrambled eggs, French bacon and local bread and fruit. Well worth €15pp. I would not hesitate in recommending this fabulous hotel in Beziers.

This is just an unimaginably extraordinary hotel in a beautiful city. Felix and Arthur at the restaurant were just superb. The intimidating history of the property is immediately forgotten as soon as you walk in and walk the hotel. Food is delicious and the rooms, while cell-like (no pun intended) are comfortable. Don't let the history of the building scare you. This is a Jewel in Beziers.

It was an amazing experience staying at the prison hotel. The rooms were of course small which is expected for a prison and part of the entire experience. The attached bathroom was quite roomy and everything was clean and bright. Even though there was no air conditioning in the room it was very comfortable by opening a large window that let a nice breeze in - even in the middle of July. If you stay here I would highly recommend their restaurant for dinner - reservations are strongly recommended. On top of all the features and ambience of the hotel you can walk around town to see the sights. Overall an A experience.

This is an amazing buidling, beautifully converted and in the centre of the historic city. Full of lovely pieces of art. A real experience. One important thing that would improve it though would be to have a fridege in the room and also tea/coffee making facilities. There are no televisions in the room either but that didn't bother me so much. Very good value also.

Amazing repurposing on an old prison. Great modern art. Room was comfortable and the view from the restaurant is second to none. Parking is not on site but not far away. Great place.

Staying in an old prison was a very fun experience. The art work and furniture is all very cool. It was a little hot with just the ceiling fan. Pool was wonderful! Amazing views!! We lucked out with parking and got a space up top and just left our car there for three days. About 20.00 a day. The restaurant was good and there was another really good one by the fountain near by. Staff at the hotel were all very nice and helpful. Would recommend

The hotel is very chic and stylish. It's central location is excellent, with the cathedral, shops and restaurants all in easy walking distance. Our group stayed in the basic twin bedrooms which whilst small, were very comfortable, clean, with fabulous views across the countryside. The lack of any tea or coffee making facilities in the room is an issue. The hotel staff, particularly the reception staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful, sorting out dinner reservations for the three evenings of our stay. However, the hotel only notified us a couple of days before our arrival that it was necessary to book a table in the hotel restaurant at least two weeks in advance for evening meals. Also, that the restaurant would be closed for two of the three evenings of our stay, hence us having to eat out every evening. On arrival we were then informed that the bar would also be closed for three evenings. As there were no tea or coffee making facilities in any of the bedrooms, it was not possible to get any drinks in the hotel when we returned each day from sightseeing around the area. I would recommend this hotel and would return but maybe avoid Sundays and Mondays when the restaurant and bar are closed particularly as many of the nearby shops and restaurants in Bezier also closed on those days

Unique place to stay. Not that much room in the bedroom - but it did use to be a prison cell, so no surprise! En-suite bathroom was good. Great location and good restaurant. Bar staff could be a bit friendlier, but reception and everyone else was great.

The concept of Le Prison is carried through the hotel. Unfortunately the walls of the rooms are rough plaster that comes off on clothing, bedding, anything that touches it. Not a good look, or a good feel. The pool was narrow but lovely, but also there was a slippery algeacovered platform at one end that caused me to slip into the pool instead of sitting down on the platform. Dangerous.

Lovely different hotel. Deliberately chosen because it was a former prison. Directions/road signs hit a miss, but sat nav got us there via very narrow streets. There’s some hotel parking, but also other local secure car parks at realistic prices. The town is full of bars and restaurants. Is worth taking the little train out to the locks of the camel de midi, but it’s also only a half walk. Only downside of the hotel is that the rooms don’t have air conditioning.

Wow! What an amazing place to stay! The prison is in an incredible location in the heart of old Béziers and with stunning views over the river and countryside. It has been beautifully restored to a high standard, with original features and modern artistic touches. We loved the concept of being able to sleep in a cell, whilst having features of a boutique hotel like swimming pool and gourmet breakfast. Simon Calder (famous British travel journalist) was staying there the same night as us, so it must be trending! Spend at least one night there while prices are still low and before it gets too well known!

We have enjoyed our stay in this Hotel. The only improvements we would suggest: - a second van for the extra (3rd) bed in the side room - bathroom and toilet be separated by glass wall

Rooms are full of character and decorated to a very good standard. Not all rooms have a view, but the proximity to the Cathedral and walking distance to the old town and restaurants makes up for it.
