What Guests Said About Besançon:

Scored out of 10, guest rating 10

Besançon pleasantly surprised us.

Besançon pleasantly surprised us. We usually just passed through on our way to Dijon or Lyon, but stopping here was definitely worth it! The historic center has a wonderful atmosphere, highlighted by the Église Sainte-Madeleine de Besançon. Make sure to allow enough time for the local Museum of Archaeology and Fine Arts. The collection is extensive but well worth the time. The military fortifications around the city, including the Citadel (a UNESCO World Heritage site), were also an interesting highlight. The only downside is that the city is not a major tourist destination, so finding souvenirs can be a bit difficult, and even at the Citadel the selection is rather limited.

I didn't have the time to visit most of the inner city, but from what I can tell it's rather average, somewhat well-kept but far from ambitious in its design. Probably best for one to focus on Dijon, although Besançon could still be explored on your way to the mountains

Very nice place, Citadel is fantastic. Besançon is not a touristic place - and i loved it the most. Food is excellent in all the palces we visited. Very advisable to check what activities are in the Citadel the days you visit.

We stayed one night, on a last minute decision. The town is really attractive and although there is not a huge amount to do, it is a great place to wander. The Musee des Beaux arts is absolutely outstanding - a complete surprise. We would have stayed longer if we had known how nice the town iss, especially to explore the countryside around,.

It rained more than was good this time.

It rained more than was good this time. Get a pass for the tram. If there are more than one of you then get a pass each rather than putting all the credits on one pass. If it is running take the boat around the Boucle, preferably on a good day. Most of the captive animals have now been taken aways from the Citadelle and that is good, it wasn't right for the lions and tigers in there or the monkeys. Don't feel bad about the rabbits, guinea pigs and poultry - they love interacting with the public. The hen was really proud showing off her new chick. If the weather is such that you can eat outside then eat outside. The food is always good, it would be hard to get a bad or expensive meal in Besak. Use the trains to have a day in Montbeliard and visit the Peugeot Adventure at Sochaux. At Montbeliard Station get on the bus, route 3, about 3 euros each. Likewise a day in Belfort is always good.

We went to Besancon to visit a friend and had only time for a short walk around the city. We visited Victor Hugo's birthplace which was very informative, and we were delighted to see some Roman ruins preserved in the center of the city. We didn't have time to visit the museum of the Resistance and would very much like to visit it on our next trip there.

Nice new hotel near the highway in a suburb of Besancon. Caution: Be sure to enter the zip code in the navigation system, as there is the same street name in another suburb 10 km away! Free large parking place, good restaurant (steakhouse) directly on the opposite side. Nicely furnished room, bathroom with window (a rarity in hotels!), friendly staff, very good breakfast. After breakfast, a walk through Besancon, 8 km away. We would love to come back!

We were looking for accommodation at short notice because we were passing through from France to Germany and were very happy to find such a good and reasonably priced holiday flat. The friendly host came by personally to give us the keys, show us the parking space in the underground car park and the flat. Uncomplicated, cosy, clean - all in all a good choice.

My wife and I were travelling through France on our motorbike on our way to Spain. We were greatly warmly by the reception staff who were very helpful and even allowed my to park my motorcycle next to the hotel entrance. Nice comfortable room and bed. We ate in the hotel restaurant for dinner and also breakfast the next day. Both excellent.

A nice hotel to stay for a night on the the way to and back from the south. The room was quite spacious, the bathroom is great with the huge shower cabin and the balcony is a nice added plus. The neighbourhood is quiet, but in 5-10 minutes you are in the inner city to have dinner and walk around.
