After trying a number of other more expensive hotels, some with no parking we stumbled upon the Grand Saint John. On first appearances it didn't appear the most inviting but the rates were reasonable and the reception staff very helpful and spoke good English. The hotel has very secure off street parking, the rooms were large, recently refurbished and although not luxurious they were welcoming and comfortable. The location is superb with easy walking distance to the centre of Beaune (three minutes) passing a large number of lovely shops, restaurants and wine merchants. Didn't try the buffet breakfast as wanted to sample Beaune in the sunshine. Hotel staff all really helpful, the free wifi needs a username and password which they give you very willingly and it works really well.
Don't be put off by the exterior this hotel does everything you need a hotel to do and saves you some money to spend in Beaune (something that is really easy to do!)
Probably better for a short stay (1/2 nights) but very central and has easy access by car.
