“This hotel occupies a striking building in the heart of the old town, where the staff are helpful and the breakfast offers a classic French spread; I think the location is ideal for exploring Besançon's historic sites on foot. Though some rooms show a bit of wear, the architecture and central position make it a convenient and characterful base. It's a solid choice, especially for a shorter stay.”
