Situated in a commuter “village” suburb of Beaune, close to the motorway network, it is not surprising that a stay here is popular with couples and families from northern Europe. Our “superior room”, decorated in dark brown and cream, was very small – just enough space to squeeze by either side of the bed – together with a small en suite. The TV, positioned half way up a wall, showed BBC1 and CNN along with other European channels. Commuter traffic started at day break.
On our first evening we had dinner in the bistro in the adjacent hotel. This was an informal affair with closely positioned tables and a menu displayed on a circulating blackboard. If you prefer more than a glass of wine with your meal then do ask to see the full wine list which gives a wider selection. The food was wildly varied in quality – an oeufs en meurette was delicious but a veal dish was tough and sinewy. On our second evening we dined at La Garoudiere in the “village” – do book ahead as we secured the last table that morning and saw those arriving that evening without a reservation turned away.. The atmosphere was great – more like an alpine ski lodge. Their basic menu starts at 17euros with others higher.. Steaks, cooked while you watch, vary from 20-30euros each.
