Hot Springs in Languedoc Roussillon or Provence?
Has anyone been to Hot Springs in the Languedoc area? How about Renne de Bain?

StCirq;
Since you know and love the area...
I was thinking not to stay in the hot spring towns but to have a base and take day trips to them. Where would you suggest as a base for Rennes les Bains?
Narbonne? Perpignan? Beziers? Montpellier?
I'd appreciate anyone else's opinion on this, too. We've never been to that part of France.

Well, Montpellier is a wonderful, lively town because of the university there (the oldest in France), but all of the others are fine too. Depends on how big a town you're after, to some extent. I have found that driving into and out of Montpellier can be a challenge when there's lots of traffic, so that's a consideration. But its also a good town for bargains in accommodations and food, again because of the large student population.

Hi C;
Train in quotes? Can you explain?
Thanks StCirq; My traveling companion likes a real town not a village, so much. A medium size town would be perfect. With that in mind would it still be Montpellier?
