Chambre d'Hôtes Villa Ambrosia et Spa

Chambre d'hôte très bien entretenu. Accueil sympathique. Avec piscine intérieur.

It is the second time we have stayed here- and it won't be the lates! It is tucked diwn a quiet street with private oarking - just 10 minutes walk from the cathedral. There is always a warm welcome. The rooms are colourful and artistically decorated. We stayed in a deluxe room this time that had its own garden terrace. It was soacious and comfortable with a large bed and great shower. There are lots of sitting areas in the communal garden. Breakfast is really good too with generous amounts to enjoy- a great place to stay!.

Frank Sinatra did it "My Way" and the charming ladies who own and run Villa Ambrosia have their own distinctive style in this funky but passionately unique B&B. The decoration and greenery suggest world travelers and folks that can't resist brocante shopping plus family heirlooms. Everything might not strike your fancy, but it all coalesces into a relaxing and whimsical whole built around a large indoor pool and enough plants and trees to compete with a botanical nursery. Our room, "Shabby" was comfortable with a premium bed and a fine rainwater shower. A memorable breakfast is essential for any self-respecting B&B, and Villa Ambrosia scores well on this checklist. A very minor quibble: wished they used more substantial paper napkins, but everything else on the table was delightful. A caution, if you are arriving by car: Allee Ambrosia is at a sharp angle off the main road, quai de Lorraine. You and/or your GPS might miss it, and that can be annoying and stressful. There are a cluster of tiny public parking spaces outside their gate and room for only a few cars inside. It would be prudent to reserve same if you have a large car or visible luggage when the car trunk is too small. This place grew on us. You may not have all the "mod cons" of a modern hotel (you might have to pull a cord out of a lamp socket to charge your laptop or phone), but you will be staying at a distinctive and singular hostelry that you will remember with fondness.

We travelled around Europe for a month, and stayed at 17 different accommodations in France, Portugal and Spain. We enjoyed a fantastic trip, but unfortuately this was the worst of all the accommodations we chose. We booked for 2 nights, but left after the first night, as it was simply not what we had expected or hoped for. We did not ask for a refund, I was simply very pleased to leave. Something we have never done before. The host does not live on site, and was not available when we arrived. The accommodation is sign posted, and we found it okay, although it is not obvious without the signs. The accommodation is not located in the best part of town. The car park is behind an iron gate, and then there is a further gate to gain access to the property. It was not inviting. As we went out for dinner there was another confused couple (we helped) trying to gain access to the car park. The key was in a key box, and we gained entry via a phone call without trouble. The room was in the garden, not the main house. Perhaps the garden was nice once, but now it is ill kept and in desperate need of attention. The room smelt strongly of damp. The garden ponds were full of mosquitoes. The air con worked, which was good, but did not cover the strong smell of damp. The towels need to be replaced immediately. Perhaps the rooms in the main house are better, but after the room we were allocated, I was not interested in asking to change. There is limited accommodation choice in Narbonne, and I chose based on the price average of about £150 a night, which had served us well throughout our trip. This accommodation was vastly overpriced. We were not impressed with Narbonne either to be honest. Don't like to leave bad reviews, but please beware. We moved on to Avignon as a result, which is lovely.

✅ Accueil 10/10 ✅ Lieu 10/10 Tout est dit. Merci à toute l’équipe de la Villa Ambrosia pour avoir permis à ce que le séjour se déroule à merveille. Nous recommandons cet endroit de Narbonne. Un vrai havre de paix intimiste à proximité du centre-ville.

Un petit bout de paradis, la gentillesse des propriétaires la beauté du lieu le confort des chambres le petit-déjeuner merveilleux. Tout contribue au bien-être. On y prendrai bien pension à l’année. Une adresse confidentielle qu’on ne devrait pas divulguer de peur de ne pas avoir de chambre.
