Ibis Manosque Cadarache

Room smelled like it was full of mothballs. No hand towels, temperature during the night 8 degrees which made it difficult to keep the window open. In addition the heating had supposedly been turned off for the season, toilet paper for one use only…..and the communication with personnel was very restricted due to their incompetence in English. According to the staff the hotel was full and they were not able to give us another room. Overall a very unpleasant and almost sleepless night.

2 nights in family room at Ibis Manosque. This was a great stay in a recently refreshed Ibis hotel. It's immediately next to the motorway and close to the L'Occitaine factory and shop. There is also an Ibis Budget on the same site. The Ibis breakfast is very good. They also serve small plates of food after breakfast (it's a more limited offering than a restaurant). Next to the hotel is a Courtpaille Restaurant (serves steaks and chicken mainly). Although the signage shows that it opens 7 days a week, it was closed on Sundays when we were there. There is also a fish and a pizza restaurant nearby to the hotel but both were closed during our visit. Manosque town centre is a good 10 minutes away from the hotel. The hotel has an outdoor swimming pool, which is very welcome when the weather is hot. This hotel is a good base for visiting the lavender fields of Provence. Staff friendly, hotel clean, parking plenty. Standard Ibis rooms. Comfy bed and few frills.

Free parking ,very close to Valensole lavender fileds and some other attractions by car. We even stay 3 days there. There were Seafood restaurant ,grill room and Italian food next to the Ibis. We really like the shower room and the shower 🚿 facility (the water speed can be adjusted)
