About this stay
The rooms here favour comfort and space over character, with a modern decor, a private bathroom, TV and telephone in every room, and free WiFi throughout. Guests can eat on site at Le Mathuzar, serving traditional French cuisine in a relaxed atmosphere or on the terrace when the weather allows, which removes the need to plan dinner elsewhere after a day spent at the pool or driving out to the Ardeche and Vercors. The meeting rooms, up to two hundred and forty square metres, make this a workable choice for a business trip that still wants a pool to unwind at afterward. The five-minute drive in either direction, toward the motorway or into the centre, gives this hotel a genuine middle-ground position that neither the old town hotels nor the deepest exhibition-district addresses can match.

Our take
I would choose the Novotel Valence Sud for a stay that mixes work and family time. It is a five-minute drive from both the A7 motorway and central Valence, has an outdoor pool and an on-site restaurant, and its meeting rooms reach 240 square metres. Rooms are spacious and modern. An 8.5 score from 2,803 reviews is solid for a four-star by the motorway, where a car is the practical way to get around.
- ✓Book a table at Le Mathuzar in advance if dining on site during a busy period
- ✓Use the pool in the late afternoon once the day's meetings or excursions wrap up
- ✓Confirm meeting room availability ahead of time if combining business with a family stay
Why we love it

- On-site restaurant, Le Mathuzar
Why guests love itAn outdoor swimming pool and spacious modern rooms make the Novotel Valence Sud an easy pick for families, and I like that the on-site restaurant saves a drive out in the evening. It is a four-star hotel a five-minute drive from both the A7 motorway and Valence's city centre, so it works as a stop on the road south or as a base for a few days. The meeting rooms point to a business clientele during the week.
