We payed 85 EUR for a double-room with parking place on weekend. For internet you have to pay extra (and it's not cheap). The hotel is a little bit out of date and cheerless. We didn't like this hotel and the grey atmosphere in there. It's about 10 minutes walking distance from the city center. But it's definitely ok for... more

Arriving by train to Besancon, hotel was easy to find as it is a fairly straightforward walk downhill towards the river. The location opposite the river and old town was very convenient as it was just a 5 - 10 minute walk into the town. The town is beautiful and almost without exception people we met were extremely friendly and... more

This hotel has a good location by the river. There is parking at the front of the hotel. The town centre is accessed by a bridge directly opposite and is a short walk of approximately 5 minutes. The room was excellent, well decorated and of reasonable size. The breakfast room was bright air and the breakfast choice was good. Very... more

great deal of coming to this hotel. rooms and services are ok very close to the tiny nice downtown. more

This hotel is a great choice if you are driving, since it offers free parking (at least during our off season visit), & is across the street from the tourist office. Ask for a room overlooking the river & old city, which is just a 2 block stroll across the bridge. Besancon was another surprise stop, which turned out to... more

Stayed here for one night en route from Switzerland. Hotel easy to find even though in a fairly complex area of roads. I was disappointed with the lack of secrure parking, as there are residential areas all round and streets which could potentially encourage 'wandering' types. There is almost all-round unfenced access to the car park. We had no problems... more

The Mercure is well located near the casino and bridge to the town centre, opposite a park. The town centre is no more than 10 minutes stroll. There is no secure parking, plenty of open parking. I would recommend asking for a room at the back of the hotel as the piano bar opposite becomes very noisy after midnight and... more

This hotel is quietly located near a small park and the casino, but you just have to cross the street and the river and you're in the 'city'. The hotel entrance is bright and shiny, but the remainings of the hotel is quite dark and a bit oldfashioned, to be honest. The dark restaurant badly needs redecoration, for example, with... more

Que dire....un 3 étoiles sans mauvaises surprises, des chambres bien tenues, un restaurant correct qui mériterait un peu d'audace de... more
