Things to do
Top hotels in Blatin
Apparthotel Privilodges Carré de Jaude
This is an excellent modern apartment hotel very well located in Clermont-Ferrand near the center (Place de Jaude). The front desk was warm and efficient. Breakfast was decent (please supply more veggies and fruit!) with excellent coffee. Ask for a 5th or 6th floor room - great views. Very good price ...

Kyriad Clermont-Ferrand Centre
This hotel is very conveniently located. It is clean and comfortable except for the heavy duvets on the beds and no top sheet. Even with the windows open we sweat most of the night, but it was too chilly to remain uncovered.

Mercure Clermont Ferrand Centre Jaude
Staff was friendly. The room was large and comfortable. And very clean. We had drinks in the bar and that was perfect. The parking is right next-door to the hotel so it’s very easy to negotiate to the hotel.
