Montpellier in spring offers pleasant temperatures, averaging around 10-15°C (50-59°F), perfect for exploring the city. Snowfall is essentially unheard of.

While Montpellier itself doesn't offer skiing or snowboarding, the nearby Cévennes mountains provide opportunities for such activities, though it's a bit of a drive. Ice skating rinks pop up in some cities during the winter months but availability depends on the year. Transportation within Montpellier is easy, with a good tram network and bus system. The airport (MPL) has flights from many European cities, and roads are generally well-maintained. During the spring, access to transportation is rarely impacted by weather.

Accommodation costs in Montpellier vary greatly, but you should expect to pay €80-€150 per night for a comfortable hotel room for a couple. Expect to spend roughly €30-€50 per person per day on food, depending on your dining choices. A nice meal at a traditional restaurant averages €30-€40 per person, while a casual lunch might cost €15-€20. Transportation within the city will be inexpensive, around €10 per person per day using public transport.

Spring in Montpellier sees a moderate number of tourists, offering a pleasant balance between lively atmosphere and peaceful exploration.
