Hotel berhampiran Monument aux Morts, Chalon-sur-Saone

The hotel was fine - generally you know what you are getting in a Campanile, it's one of the older ones but was clean and the shower was great. The problem was the restaurant - after travelling for 8 hours we were told (on arrival) that teh restaurant was closed. The reason we use Campanile is that you the restaurants provide a decent meal and there i no hassle - but we then (after all that travelling) had the stress of trying to (1) find a restaurant (it is in a retail area of town), (2) find somewhere that was open (many restaurants in the area seemed to be closed on Sunday and (3) served reasonable food. We ended up in a Buffalo grill, which was pretty poor quality food. To be honest the receptionist wasn't overly helpful, didn't seem at all bothered by our plight and just pointed vaguely in the direction of the retail complex where there might be a restaurant. Would it have been so hard to drop us a line to say the restaurant was closed ? Then at least we could have made alternative arrangements in advance. I would not stay here again.

Les installations sont conformes à ce que j'attendee, pour la nourriture Je n'ai pas mangé

I have been saying with the Accor Group of hotels for over 40 years and I have to say this one is right at the bottom of the pile with very few positives . The main positives are the shower and hard working lady at breakfast Location is in the middle of a commercial park with a huge factory view from the back of the hotel , where our room was . Lights on all night Triple glazing so no road noise thankfully . A hypermarket is ten minutes walk away . As is the bus stop with the No3 taking you into town . The welcome was not the best . Despite silver Accor group membership , which normally means a complimentary drink ,we where advised the hotel offered complimentary water fountain ?! It’s not about the drink it’s the lack of acknowledgment. We where then advised the restaurant was closed only when I asked can we make a reservation , not ideal when there is so little nearby except a Bar grill . Which offers average food for a reasonable price to be honest but not what I expected . Again despite being booked for over 9 months , no advise email to say restaurant closed was sent The room was fine except for weird smell , stale smoke I suspect . The towels where very thin but the bed nice and comfy and as mentioned the shower great . As with all the Accor group toiletries have been massively down graded with ‘one for all ‘ approach from a dispenser . Bar service was non existent unless you wanted to order via a QR code , which ironically offered full restaurant service despite restaurant being closed . Half the wines where out of stock and the prices buried so deep in the scrolling we gave up and went to our room. No complimentary hot drinks in reception as with many Ibis Styles and no machines in room , so bring a kettle and own coffee … Staff seemed non plussed in offering local advise , when we enquired about buses the chap seemed surprised , he said he could offer us cabs ?! 1.35€ into town and 20 minutes journey is perfect on the bus by the way 👍🏼 Breakfast was poor with very little choices except serial and a few pasteries , cheese and bread . Cereal and poor fruit . Sliced bread would have helped of even boiled eggs . Not the hook it used to be with Ibis Styles .

Très bon hôtel pour une étape. Très bon accueil, personnel très arrangeant. Nous étions deux adultes et deux enfants de deux ans. Nous avons pu avoir des chambres communiquantes et deux lits parapluie. Chambre très propre et rénovée. Bonne literie avec de vraies couettes. Aucun bruit pendant la nuit même au RDC. Je recommande !

We were a bit worried after the recent reviews but needn’t have been. On arrival our daughter went straight to the pool. The family room was a good size and the hotel stored our ice packs in the freezer enabling our onward transit to the south. The atmosphere is laid back and a bit quirky. About a 20 minute east walk to the centre of Beaune. Breakfast was ok, a little chaotic, but we got what we needed. The kids play area was also a nice touch. We would definitely return.

My wife and I stayed three nights here. We had been to Beaune 12 years earlier but just for several hours travelling between Lyon and Dijon. We are so happy we stayed here and were able to enjoy the area. We arrived at the train station from Lyon and then by taxi to the hotel. We were fortunate to snag the one taxi at the train station so that might be something you want to arrange ahead of time. The hotel was a reasonable fare, about eight euros and I rounded it up to ten euros for a tip. The hotel is very nice, nothing fancy but more than adequate for a multi night stay. Our room was very good and a very good bathroom, all up to date and clean. The staff spoke good English and was very friendly and helpful. There is a bar in the lobby / common area and we enjoyed wines there. There are a number of good restaurants within easy walking distance. The hotel is right across the street from the main tourist office which made pick-up for a day long wine tour very convenient. The hotel has underground parking for an extra daily fee. The location was a very easy walk in to the historic center and we had a great time visiting sites and enjoying the numerous shops and restaurants. We left Beaune with a longer list of things to do then when we arrived so we are already talking about a return visit and would stay here again.
