About Montpellier

Montpellier is not only one of the top research locations in France, it also enjoys a high quality of life on the mediterranean arch, about 300 sunny days a year, and a dynamic cultural and social life that contribute to the third place on the ranking of the best student cities in France. “It might not carry quite the same cachet as some of southern France's cities, but in its own graceful, easy-going way, Montpellier is every bit the equal of Marseille and Nice. With its elegant buildings, grand hôtels particuliers (private mansions) and stately boulevards, it's a quietly stylish metropolis with just a hint of Barcelona about its atmospheric old quarter, shady backstreets and leafy squares.” (Lonely Planet)
