From the bus and train stations it's about a ten-minute walk down rue Alfred Merle to the main square, place du Mandarous. The tourist office
is on place du Beffroi in the centre of the old town (July & Aug

). Bikes and outdoor equipment can be rented from Roc et Canyon, 55 av Jean-Jaurès.
For an overnight stay , try the good-value Hôtel Le Commerce
, 8 place du Mandarous (tel 05.65.60.00.56, fax 05.65.60.96.50; under
€24), with clean, well-furnished rooms; it's best to take a room at the
back, though, to avoid any noise from the square. A bit more expensive,
but with more character, is Les Causses , in an attractive
building on the N9 at 56 av Jean-Jaurès (tel 05.65.60.03.19, fax
05.65.60.86.90; €34-46), which has a reasonable restaurant (from
€9.91). Slightly further out of town, by the river at 115 rue du Rajol,
the clean, traditional Cévenol Hôtel (tel 05.65.60.74.44, fax 05.65.60.85.99, www.cevenol.hotel.fr ; €46-61; restaurant from €11.25) offers a range of rooms, some with views of the causses . There's a good hostel about 1km down av Jean-Jaurès at 26 rue Lucien-Costes (tel 05.65.61.27.74), and scattered round about are several campsites : one of the best is Cureplat
(tel 05.65.60.15.75; closed Oct-March) at 121 av de Millau Plage, on
the left bank of the Tarn, north of the confluence with the Dourbie -
take the bridge at the end of av Gambetta.
