I think myself fortunate that normally I would not stay in a 2* hotel but finding something mid-tier in Dijon is not easy. On the plus side Hotel Thurot is very central and close to the station - the latter point was the key benefit for me. The check in experience was both warm and efficient however the bottomline is that the room is VERY basic. The mattress had a very thick rubber sheet on top of it which does not contribute to a good night's sleep & the pillows had a very cheap foamy feel to them. If you need a simple, cheap (60 euros), quiet overnight place to stay then it fits the bill. NB Put your best map reader on point as you need eyes like a hawk to find this hotel which is not helped by the fact central Dijon is in upheaval due to the work on the new tram network.

This hotel is the most basic of everything. For the price that was expected, but there was no sign to mark the hotel, and with Dijon under major tramway construction it took an hour to find from the train station. Locals did not know it, another red flag.

We stayed at Hotel Thurot in passing on the way to the South of France in April 2011. We loved it and were looking forward to staying again but due to a death in the family we couldn't return.

For us, this really was a great find:
1 - the breakfast was very good - fresh bread, juices and a wide range of other stuff.
2 - the room was very spacious and the bed more than big enough.
3 - bathroom big with good quality shower
4 - free internet - always a bonus.
5 - walking distance to the center, near a park too which was nice as it was a nice day.
6 - quiet - the area was really quiet - not a peep during the night.

i concur with previous posts that entry into the hotel is a bit tight, but it's ok if you haven't got a huge car - we have a big car and had to take it slowly but it was ok.

dijon itself is absolutely beautiful - a huge range of shops and restaurants - the mustard shop in town is definitely worth a visit!

This appears to be the only two-star hotel relatively central to Dijon which has ensuite bathrooms. The decor is well-thought-out and charming, and the optional breakfast was better than average. Our initial problems with the Wi-fi were overcome by the helpful staff. On the down side, the hotel was approached via an alleyway that could barely accommodate our people mover, and the car park required the skills of a contortionist.. Also, there was a bolster rather than pillows on the bed, which we found rather uncomfortable.
