3-Star Hotels in Besancon

Despite the very central location relatively quiet (good windows), everything very clean, rooms simply but sufficient and with small kitchenette, fair price for the garage - you can remember! However, it is essential that guests (also) have to empty the waste label in the bathroom - especially as it is noted anywhere. The relevant notice refers only to the kitchen part.

The Hotel de Paris was the perfect location from which to explore Bésançon for a few days. Comfortable rooms, friendly service, and a great breakfast buffet made this hotel the perfect launching point for our time in Bésançon. Definitely recommend!

A budget hotel with decent comfortable rooms albeit quite striking in a lime green colour scheme. Comfortable bed and free parking. Small pool, unheated and therefore very cold. Breakfast was a joke, tables not cleared and items not restocked which resulted in considerable frustration for those trying to have a meal and get on their way. This needs to be addressed by the management.

First of all, the cost to stay here was cheap so I understand that it was not going to be luxurious in any way. We stayed for 1 night as we were visiting Franche-Comte. The location is just outside Besançon in a residential area. Handy for the tram and a short drive into the town. The staff were friendly enough. Our room was on the bottom floor. The hallway and our room were uncomfortably hot and stuffy. There was no air con in the room and, as it was a hot day, it was an uncomfortable temperature and difficult to sleep. The room was very basic. It reminded me of student accommodation. The bed wasn’t very comfortable and we had a thin pillow each. Otherwise, the room was clean. I personally wouldn’t stay here again but if you were looking for a one night stop for a cheap price it would be fine.

We stayed here for 2 nights in July. It was well signposted once near the town centre, which made it easy to find. There are a couple of issues to bear in mind about parking. First, the entrance is very narrow. My phone measure app measured the gap as 2.2m . I very carefully and slowly got my Tesla Model Y through. It felt like I was edging a supertanker through the Suez Canal. I used to have a model S and no way I would have attempted to get that through. One in the car park, there is a limited number of spaces. Three of them have Tesla chargers. If you book ahead, they will cone one off for you. By 10pm the car park was full and all bets are off at that point, Tesla space or not. I expect you would have to park outside in a public car park somewhere. The checkin was very simple. I had completed the online prebooking, which presumably helped. The reception and other, eg cleaning, staff were always polite and cheerful. The room was fairly basic, but the decor was well looked after and it was clean. We found the bed comfortable and with good pillows, including some extras in sealed bags. There was a small wardrobe and the ensuite included a toilet, sink and shower, all of which were pretty high quality items. The aircon worked wonderfully, which was essential, as it was around 40 degrees outside. It was also good to have two room keys as so many hotels think it is OK to give a couple just one room key. The flat screen TV was a decent size with a clear signal and a decent range of mainly french TV channels, with BBC world news and CNN as English language channels. The room has a telephone, but I didn’t use it. Free wifi was really good at about 70Mb download speed. The location is excellent on the edge of the old town centre. A short walk to the Musee Beaux Arts and not much further to the birthplace of Victor Hugo and many other key attractions and restaurants. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again if I came to Besançon. However, once my replacement model S arrives maybe later this year, this hotel won’t be an option because, although it has destination chargers, they are accessed through a narrow tunnel.

This property has everything one needs for a short stay. The interior is very cosy and homy. Room was well equipped and bathroom was brand new. Bed was very comfortable too. We've had a nice rest at night. Everything is very clean and well thought through. Breakfast was delivered to our room on time and in an organised manner. Pierre and Klervie at the reception were brilliant and went out of their way to help us with everything we needed. They have even helped to carry our bags to the room (we were moving and the car was full of bags that needed to be transported into the room). This was very sweet and kind of them. Furthermore, they were very polite and friendly. Excellent job. Excellent reception and first impression of the hotel. Management is lucky to have both of them. I've stayed in many hotels and this is not something normal to happen even in high-end properties. There is no restaurant in the hotel, but many nice places around. Easy to find something to eat. Highly recommend.

My wife and I stayed at this hotel from the 13th - 18th August 2022, In the evenings we would have two drinks before going to bed, the bar stays open until midnight, One of the nights there was no bartender as she left early, which left the night porter whom I'd never seen before, I approached him and ordered drinks to which he said the bar was closed, i politely reminded him of that the closing time was (midnight) so he got the drinks, albeit reluctantly, i paid him and said we would probably like another one, he said no we weren't getting any more, so as not to annoy him we only had 1 drink. On her way to our room as i finished my drink, my wife asked him for a glass of iced water as she had done every night, Suddenly I heard shouting so I look to see it's the porter shouting at my wife ”no you are getting no water” he screamed at her, trying to reason with him she said ”it's just a glass of water” but the porter aggressively persisted she would have no water, I told him he was a very rude person and that I was reporting him to the manager. The next morning we went to the manager with our complaint but to my surprise she wasn't one bit sympathetic towards us, she just said that she would have a word with him, she didn't even offer us an apology, When we came back the following night the same porter was on duty again but so was the bartender, we were having our drink when we overheard the porter saying to the bartender that he wasn't going to serve us anything, We are both in our mid sixties and in all our years of travel we've never felt so embarrassed or intimidated by a member of staff and over something as trivial as a glass of water! The incident completely soured our stay and really let the hotel down in how A) they let this happen and B) how they handled it. Truly appalling behaviour towards guests. Needless to say we will never be staying at this hotel or any hotel associated with it again...

We’ve been using Campaniles in France for around 30 years. Sadly they have been steadily declining in recent times despite some refurbishment. The woman running the hotel on the Saturday evening along with the chef was the only good thing. She was completely charming and was very helpful. The room reeked of smoke and was cold as the heating didn’t work properly, despite her best attempts, so she gave us a heater, which did work well. The furnishings were a mixture of original Campanile brown green and a partially refurbished bathroom which was in disgusting condition. Brown toilet, heater dripping with filth etc etc. On arrival in the restaurant we were 10 mins early at 18:50 and she informed us we were too early but we explained we just wanted a drink to start with, which she duly served. By the time we eventually left the restaurant at just before 21:00, we were the only two customers they had had all evening! Hence no buffet, just an extremely limited menu of food which was served not entirely heated through. Do yourself a favour and find another brand of hotel, as we will next time. It’s very sad as we really enjoyed the simple convenience of Campaniles but they seem to be being run down and abandoned as a brand.
