Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were comfortable and clean, with a nice view. The service was excellent, and the location was convenient with off-street parking. However, the dining options were limited, and the facilities could be more modern.
The hotel offers a mix of experiences—a beautiful view of the town skyline through the old windows and cramped en suite facilities. The service was efficient, but the lack of room service was noticeable. The location is ideal, right in the center of the old city, but dining options are limited.
The hotel is ideally located in the center of Besancon, offering stunning views of the town skyline through the charming old windows. The rooms are equipped with AC, a cupboard, and serve drinks, making for a cozy stay. Though the price is slightly high for some, the value for money is justified by the delightful atmosphere.
The hotel is centrally located in the heart of Besancon, offering stunning views of the town skyline through the charming old windows. Despite some quirky features like a cupboard bathroom, the hotel provides an authentic experience with friendly service and a refreshing welcome drink. However, the lack of a proper bar for serving drinks can be a downside.
