Location and Access
Hotel Restaurant Spa Le Sauvage is in Besancon Old Town, 500 metres from the citadel's ancient walls and a 10-minute walk from the Musée du Temps. Besancon Viotte Train Station is 2 km away, and Tavaux Airport is 65 km away. Landmarks nearby include the Astronomical clock (0.5 km), Square Castan (0.5 km), and the Time museum of Besancon (0.5 km). Fortifications of Vauban and Gouffre de Poudrey are nearby.

“Converted from a convent, the building itself adds a layer of historical intrigue. The location places you just outside the city center, near enough to the Citadelle but with the welcome addition of private parking. I especially appreciate the bar's focus on regional drinks, like Jura absinthe, offering a real taste of the area.”
