Hotel berhampiran BESANCON VIOTTE RAILWAY STATION, Besancon

Bonjour, je vais sans doute aller à l’encontre de certaines opinions mais voilà en avril 2024 nous avons séjourné 2 nuits non consécutives dans la même semaine, c’est vrai que la 1ère nuit nous étions au 4ème étage dans une chambre correcte mais sans plus, la douche était très petite (avec le rideau c’était impossible de se retourner) sinon la literie était bonne et la 2ème nuit nous étions au 3ème étage alors là c’était super, une grande chambre spacieuse avec une douche à l’Italienne lit confortable et nous avons aimé dans les 2 chambres les écrans de télé bien placés et assez grand en dimension. Nous avons pris un petit déjeuner à 8€50 qui nous convenait parfaitement, il y avait tout ce qu’il fallait pour nous, nous avons trouvé le personnel très sympathique et très aimable. La situation face à la gare et au pôle bus est parfaite. Nous y reviendrons.

Stayed for 1N whilst in Besancon. It was somewhat challenging to find the entrance to this hotel - my satnav took me to the right area but signposted the wrong side of the road, and because there was no lighting at all on the signage at the entrance to the road to the Ibis at night, it didn't catch my eye. So a few wasted drives past searching for the entrance to the parking garage in the wrong place. Room was good for the price. No issues on that front. Breakfast was continental. Average range of options. Price very reasonable, and competitive.

The location is lovely. The parc is quite pleasant and walking to the center of town is easy. The hotel seems not to have been renovated since the 1980's. The woman at the front desk when we arrived was just lovely, very friendly. The room however was disappointing. Bathroom had not been well cleaned, dust on the tp holder, the shower curtain (yes, a thin white polyester shower curtain) was dirty at the edge. The carpet hadn't been changed in years. The room served its purpose for one night. Where the experience went even further downhill was dinner in the restaurant. We had a deluge that evening and my husband recommended we just eat at the hotel. I suspected this was not a good idea but ok. The food was dreadful; they had to re-heat his dish twice, the service was fine, they tried but could not make it work. Fortunately they had a very good bottle of wine that only slightly made up for the meal. So to summarize, best stay somewhere else in Besançon.

My wife and I stayed at this hotel from the 13th - 18th August 2022, In the evenings we would have two drinks before going to bed, the bar stays open until midnight, One of the nights there was no bartender as she left early, which left the night porter whom I'd never seen before, I approached him and ordered drinks to which he said the bar was closed, i politely reminded him of that the closing time was (midnight) so he got the drinks, albeit reluctantly, i paid him and said we would probably like another one, he said no we weren't getting any more, so as not to annoy him we only had 1 drink. On her way to our room as i finished my drink, my wife asked him for a glass of iced water as she had done every night, Suddenly I heard shouting so I look to see it's the porter shouting at my wife ”no you are getting no water” he screamed at her, trying to reason with him she said ”it's just a glass of water” but the porter aggressively persisted she would have no water, I told him he was a very rude person and that I was reporting him to the manager. The next morning we went to the manager with our complaint but to my surprise she wasn't one bit sympathetic towards us, she just said that she would have a word with him, she didn't even offer us an apology, When we came back the following night the same porter was on duty again but so was the bartender, we were having our drink when we overheard the porter saying to the bartender that he wasn't going to serve us anything, We are both in our mid sixties and in all our years of travel we've never felt so embarrassed or intimidated by a member of staff and over something as trivial as a glass of water! The incident completely soured our stay and really let the hotel down in how A) they let this happen and B) how they handled it. Truly appalling behaviour towards guests. Needless to say we will never be staying at this hotel or any hotel associated with it again...

This property has everything one needs for a short stay. The interior is very cosy and homy. Room was well equipped and bathroom was brand new. Bed was very comfortable too. We've had a nice rest at night. Everything is very clean and well thought through. Breakfast was delivered to our room on time and in an organised manner. Pierre and Klervie at the reception were brilliant and went out of their way to help us with everything we needed. They have even helped to carry our bags to the room (we were moving and the car was full of bags that needed to be transported into the room). This was very sweet and kind of them. Furthermore, they were very polite and friendly. Excellent job. Excellent reception and first impression of the hotel. Management is lucky to have both of them. I've stayed in many hotels and this is not something normal to happen even in high-end properties. There is no restaurant in the hotel, but many nice places around. Easy to find something to eat. Highly recommend.

Accueil , hygiène, bon petit dejeuner , de plus climatisé. Proximité points de restauration , accès facile aux grands axes de circulation . Sejour parfait .

Sans surprise. Les campaniles sont tous configurés sur le même modèle. Mais le temps a fait son effet et les équipements sont un peu vieillots. Propreté de la chambre et de la SDB correcte sans être exemplaire. Insonorisation moyenne. Literie confortable et store efficace à la fenêtre qui permet de dormir dans le noir. Buffet de petit déjeuner très complet. Restaurant non essayé. Accueil moyen : dépend des interlocuteurs. Veilleur de nuit très professionnel, réceptionniste aussi. La femme qui s'occupe des petits déjeuners en revanche plutôt désagréable.

First of all, the cost to stay here was cheap so I understand that it was not going to be luxurious in any way. We stayed for 1 night as we were visiting Franche-Comte. The location is just outside Besançon in a residential area. Handy for the tram and a short drive into the town. The staff were friendly enough. Our room was on the bottom floor. The hallway and our room were uncomfortably hot and stuffy. There was no air con in the room and, as it was a hot day, it was an uncomfortable temperature and difficult to sleep. The room was very basic. It reminded me of student accommodation. The bed wasn’t very comfortable and we had a thin pillow each. Otherwise, the room was clean. I personally wouldn’t stay here again but if you were looking for a one night stop for a cheap price it would be fine.

Het was even zoeken als je uit richting Belfort komt, er staan gelukkig wel overal wegwijzers langs de nieuwe weg naar dit nieuwe hotel. Vanaf Besancon is het wel gemakkelijk en snel te bereiken. Het hotel is heel modern en compleet. Je kunt er zonodig 24 uur per dag eten uit de automaat, overdag en ‘s avonds in het eigen modern en sfeervol restaurant met o.a.broodjes, (alcoholvrije) dranken en lekkere koek en taart. Heel vriendelijke en behulpzame bediening. Aan het hotelrestaurant is een open toegang tot de MacDonalds; ook deze is zeer modern met digitale panelen waar je je bestelling kunt samenstellen die dan aan de counter worden doorgegeven. De inrichting is modern en fris. Buiten is er een mooi, groot terras. De kamers zijn compact en modern, de bedden zijn prima, de badkamer is ook compact, maar wel volledig en mooi. Het buffet-ontbijt is uitgebreid en lekker. De kwaliteit van locatie is voor iedereen verschillend; het ligt aan de aire, dus de snelweg en tankstation zijn dichtbij en handig voor doorreizigers, de omgeving voor langblijvers kan ietsje tegenvallen, maar de kamers zijn geluidsdicht, dus van verkeer hoor je niets en de mechanische ventilatie is prima. En op het terras en restaurants kijk je uit op bossen.

La direction de cet Ibis de Vesoul ne manque pas d'audace pour oser louer une chambre 90 € (sans le petit-déjeuner) dans l'état de délabrement qu'elle offre à la clientèle. C'est affligeant tout autant que déprimant. Lorsqu'on exerce un métier d'accueil et que l'on vit du gain qu'apporte une clientèle, la chose la plus élémentaire commence déjà par un minimum de respect. Or ici, le client ne semble que du chaland pour alimenter le tiroir-caisse, rien de plus. Comment est-ce possible que cet établissement ait 3 étoiles ??? Comment les a-t-il eues et comment est-ce possible qu'il les conserve encore ? Ces mêmes marchands de sommeil pleurent sur leur sort quant à la concurrence soi-disant déloyale que leur causent les plateformes telles que Airbnb... Et ça râle, et ça se plaint, et ça s'étonne... Pendant ce temps-là ça n'agit pas pour investir dans des travaux de rafraîchissement. Pendant ce temps-là ça ne se questionne pas pour évoluer et s'adapter. Pendant ce temps-là ça n'a toujours rien compris aux règles essentielles d'hospitalité, de convivialité et de respect. Mais ça continue assidûment à plumer les pigeons comme moi qui se font avoir. Des cancres ! (Malheureusement pas au sens noble du terme). Il faut reconnaître malgré tout que l'accueil du veilleur de nuit (car arrivée tardive) a été tout à fait correct et que la literie fut bonne. Mais la facture reste scandaleuse et indigeste.
