There are no staff on site after 2100. If anything were to happen guests need to ring a telephone number. The access and egress to the hotel is very difficult. There is a narrow bridge to enter and access. The hotel rooms were big, the bed was comfortable. A nice outdoor seating area and a small kitchenette. The hotel looks and feels tired. It’s a 20/25 minute walk to Narbonne and the hotel is situated in a dark area. Didn’t feel safe to walk home at night. No public transport
Very helpful staff, comfortable and specious rooms. The hotel is quite out of the way of the main city. There are not many options around to walk to eat or have coffee.
A little out of the way but worth the walk from the train station. Beautiful tranquil setting! Enjoyed the special offer for dinner, food was superb! Spacious rooms, albeit a little dated.
Perfectly positioned to explore the centre of Norbonne, whilst feeling rural in its setting near the old mill and canal. Ample secure private parking.

Not as expected
We were encouraged to use this hotel as a meeting point for a very nice, highly rated
barge cruise. In my opinion the hotel should have aligned with the star rating of the cruise...therefore we were disappointed.
The lobby area is a bit strange. It contained a large cage with a big parrot who made quite a bit of noise. The noise wasn't as disturbing as the thought that the parrot wasn't really in an appropriate environment for its well being. I am not an expert by any means but it just didn't "sit" right with me or my husband.
As far as the hotel goes, The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. However the whole place was a bit dated and worn, most noticeably in the hallways where there were large, obvious stains on the carpets.
Our group was hungry and tried to go to the restaurant early. This attempt was met with a strong rebuttal from the bartender who let us know we were not welcome to sit at a table inside. We decided to leave and find somewhere else more welcoming.
We travel A LOT for both work and pleasure. We like to stay in decent places. It was ok, but if I'm in Narbonne again, I'll find a different place.
Received a nice welcome. Good location in quiet residential area amongst allotments, well placed for major roads, thus avoiding the need to drive into Narbonne centre. Ample underground parking. Our room was on the top floor with nice outdoor space. Good kitchen facilities, a few more utensils would have been useful. Nicely furnished, very clean. Staff very helpful, yet not intrusive. We enjoyed the proximity to the canal and did not find the noise from the weir to be a problem, would suggest that light sleepers bring ear plugs. Pleasant walk along canal to town, took us 15 minutes to walk. Would happily stay again.
Took a bit of finding - tucked in within a housing neighborhood overlooking a fairly unattractive canal.
The room was totally acceptable although the toilet seat was coming away and only fixed the next day. Next to the hotel is a restaurant which seems partially associated with the hotel and as well as being very convenient does a scallop meal that is truly delicious. All in all a good stay. Pity about the view from the room though
We loved our visit to Clarion Suites. Our top floor room had a beautiful view, the staff was excellent, breakfast was delicious. The nearby restaurant, Brasserie du Moulin was superb for dining. Only minus was the wifi was not strong enough to work in our room. It did work in the lobby.
Nice apartment with whirlpool bath and balcony area. Great to have fridge and kitchen facilities especially with the lovely market in Narbonne where we bought some great pâté and cheese for supper. Didn't have a car and the walk in to town is about 15 mins along the canal side. it's quite a long way to walk to the station (about 30 mins) with luggage although the station is not far as the crow flies!

Not what we expected
Two things spoilt our stay. First we found the restaurant was closed Mondays and most of Narbonne is too. The helpful lady on reception recommended 3 restaurants all ten minutes away on foot. (Not a problem as it happened). First one closed (uh oh) second one open (and nice) which we jumped at. Think website should be clear(er) on restaurant.
Secondly we were one of only a few guests and we were politely and gently encouraged not to have breakfast.
Nice quiet secluded location 20 minute walk from town. Country B&B feel. Spacious room. Friendly staff. Didn't get a chance to eat at restaurant on location. Great for a quiet get away, away from city life but close enough to town to get food/drinks.
