Sète Youth Hostel is an atmospheric villa dating from 1903, located on the slopes of Mont Saint Clair, with a commanding view over Sète city centre, the Mediterranean Sea, and the Etang de Thau lagoon.
You will enjoy a unique setting, with an outdoor dining room with sea view, meal service, an individual kitchen, snack service in summer, a lounge, a bar, a parking lot (please note that if you're coming by car, you must take Paul Valéry street, then Belfort street), 24h room access, and a picnic area in the garden.
We offer 20 4-bedded rooms in a tree-shaded park, and 4 2-bedded rooms on the villa's first floor. Small campsite in summer.
The Youth Hostel is located 5 minutes by foot from Sète's city centre, shops, bars and restaurants on the canals, daily indoor market, and 4 weekly markets.
10 min from the nearest bus stop enabling you to go to the beach (10km of light sand beaches), or to the train station (20 min by foot, map available on request).
Sète is also Georges Brassens and Paul Valéry's home town, and you will find many museums and festivals such as Images singulières pour la photo, Worldwide, Jazz à Sète, Fiesta Sète pour la musique and Voix Vives pour la poésie. Most of them are organized in the Théâtre de la Mer (Sea Theatre), an outdoor theatre whose stage is opened on the sea and the stars.
Sète Youth Hostel is also a place for you to rest and relax, in the heart of the city and close to all its services.

| The location is nice but the working hours of the hostel are odd. The hostel is closed form 12pm to 6pm wich i found very inconvenient. When hostel is closed there is not access to WC no place to live your laggage, no one to ask fo information. I arrived at hostel at 2 pm and had to wait util 6 since I did not have were to live my luggage.Besides hostel is on the hill and once you climb up you do not feel leaving with your laggage again. Besides train station does not have luggage locekers, so you really need to plan to come during the hours the hostel is open. There is no interent in the hostel, but the staff is willing to help you with imformation. This is good place just if you are planing to stay longer than 2 days. Otherwise it is a hassle.I was staying there just one day, and I lost it waiting for reception to open sicne I did not have place to live my luggage. Hostel response: | ||

| Fantastic location, right on the hilltop. Cheap wine and excellently cooked food (and plenty of it). Sit back with a chilled Rose, and watch the sun set over the town. Just lovely. One thing - if you can avoid it, don't bring a car. Sete is a pain to drive around: small, narrow, congested - you get the drill. | ||

Further from the train station than advertised. Hostel response: | ||

| We loved this Hostel. It is located on a pretty steep hill but it is well worth it for the view from the rooms. The rooms are little apartments with quaint green shutters on the small balconies which overlook Sete- very pretty. | ||

| 17 Jul 2011 Jon, England & Wales | 93% | |
| very friendly place, clean and efficient
self catering kitchen could do with some improvements, the hotplates dont work properly and there isnt enough storage space, plus no utensils such as knives etc, but still very useful | ||
