Having seen the previous review we did not see it in it's hay day, but it has just been refurbished so was nice and clean, room was small but great views of the surrounding countryside. Meal was very good if overpriced as it seems to be all over France service good

We've stayed here about five times in the last ten years driving down to skiing. It used to be quaint and charming. Now it's just become another faceless hotel which knows how to charge. 139 euros for a room mid march no breakfast. We went with it because we didn't know anywhere else, and any way we remember it was... More

Our room at the Poste et Lion d'Or was spacious, very clean, very quiet, nicely furnished, and had a very comfortable bed. The bathroom was also spacious and spotless. The view from the room over the countryside is very beautiful - the essence of unspoiled rural Burgundy. The location is very convenient - a 10 or 15 minute walk (uphill)... More

This medium sized hotel is in a nice old building in this interesting town with its large abbey. This hotel is at the bottom of the hill though you need to climb a hill to get to it. It had a large garage round the back where we could store our bikes. The rooms were OK but in need of... More

We stayed one night in July with our two children (9/12). Hotel was perfect for our needs which were a quick place to stay and see the bascilica and then journey on to Strasbourg. Our rooms were well situated directly across from each other and the hotel is close to the basilica and center of town. On the downside, I... More

Other reviewers seem to have had a different experience at this sweet old hotel, and I agree that the building itself is lovely and the views are amazing; however, our stay was reminiscent of a Fawlty Towers episode. Stephanie Biver, the desk clerk, did her best to be sweet and charming, but the rest of the employees seemed rushed and... More

We enjoyed our stay here. Good location, large rooms, comfortable beds, OK breakfast, helpful staff, evening meal variable, but some dishes excellent - especially the pistachio ice-cream. One oddity was that the bar was hardly ever attended, so we had to go to the cafe across the street for pre-dinner drinks. This seemed to be because the hotel was hosting... More

This hotel is under new management and has recently been refurbished. The rooms are beautiful and the beds extremely comfortable. Our room had a lovely view of rolling hills and farms. The restaurant is excellent. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Many of them speak English.,
