Hotel Mercure Golf Cap d'Agde

Great beaches and marina. The hotel is in a quiet location. Dinner last night by Chef Simon was superb. The room is excellent. Breakfast on the other hand leads a lot to be desired. No fresh sausage, greasy bacon, over cooked scrambled eggs and a poor charcuterie....

Well where to start- The hotel location is excellent because from here you can walk and or cycle more or less everywhere in the town in 10 minutes. The hotel backs onto a golf course and is on a slope so that there is always a gentle breeze and the views are great. The rooms are excellent and ours included a small balcony with a table and two tall stools so we could eat our snack lunch outside, lovely. At the top of the hotel there is a small spa and leisure centre with a sauna and gym inside and then a lovely jacuzzi outside and usually very few people, lovely. The main problem (like many French hotels in my experience) is the staff. They seem to be totally DISinterested in things like service and the lady in the breakfast room asked u our room number every morning for a week, and they do NOT have more than 40 rooms. The reception too were always cold and distant, totally not what you hope for. The parking garage works very well so you can park your car in the shade which is a major bonus in the hot summer. All in all great hotel and very average staff.
