Wonderful hotel, very nice room with good beds, large and very well apointed bathroom. Great service.
It is in many ways a unique hotel, very charming.
We stayed 3 nights; the reception desk personnel was always helpful & the breakfast staff was genuinely kind and professional.
Our bathroom was so spacious; we truly enjoyed our stay in this adorable hotel .
Right in the middle of Besançon, amongst all the old buildings. All the staff were lovely & very helpful. Parking was a short walk away in a secure garage.
Right in the centre of Besançon with easy walking all round. Staff were super- helpful given the annual market which had blocked the town centre making it very hard to reach.
Old-fashioned but clean and comfortable.

Superhyggeligt gammelt og charmerende hotel. Meget venligt og hjælpsom personale og super beliggenhed i centrum
Ein Hotel an hervorragender Lage, dass aber etwas in die Jahre gekommen ist. Betr. Parkplatz sollte man sich wegen der Zufahrt im Voraus informieren, hab ich im Nachhinein erfahren. Viel Schnickschnack gibt es hier nicht und das Hotel trumpft ganz klar mit der super Lage im Zentrum des Zentrums.
Hotel bien situé - Personnel très agréable. bon séjour. Si on vient en voiture,il est important de contacter l'hotel avant de venir , pour les indications du parking.
Un grand remerciement a la direction de l'hôtel qui m'a renvoyé des affaires oubliées. Un hotel calme dans le centre historique de Besançon près dee nombreux magasins.
Hôtel simple et confortable en plein centre de Besançon . Excellent accueil et petit déjeuner
L’accueil d’un hôtel indépendant avec le charme qui n’existe plus dans les décors sans âme des chaînes d’hôtels
Hôtel un peu vieillot mais plutôt confortable.
En plein centre ville, il faut savoir que le centre de Besançon n'est pas très pratique d'accès en voiture
Hôtel très bien situé et facile d'accès. Les personnes à l'accueil sont très sympathiques. Malgré la déco un peu "vintage" (qui fait son charme) la chambre est très pratique et fonctionnelle avec des prises, un grand placard, un bureau assez grand pour l'ordinateur et de nombreux dossiers.
