Anyone been to Beaune, France?

Has anyone been to this town - I was looking at staying at the Hotel Le Cep?

Dear Erin,<BR><BR>Stayed there for three nights in September. Wonderful place, right in town, quiet. The manager was very friendly and most employees spoke excellent English - a benefit as my French proficiency is in its infancy.<BR><BR>All rooms are a little different, the bathroom we had was the nicest of the trip.<BR><BR>One tip - don't eat at the restaurant affiliated with the hotel. The restaurant previously was operated by the hotel, but is no longer. The meal there was overpriced and disappointing.<BR><BR>Susan<BR><BR>(Sorry about the e-mail address. Shhh, I'm at work....)

Erin--<BR>I've likewise been to Beaune and stayed at Hotel Le Cep. We enjoyed the old town very much, and as you have been told already, the hotel is nice. It's in a wonderful location right in the middle of the old town, just down from the Hotel Dieu.

Erin,<BR><BR>I don't know when you are going to Beaune, but I booked Le Cep a year in advance and still had to switch my desired dates because they were full. (Le Cep handles some bicycling tour groups, among others). So, I would suggest moving beyond looking and into booking!<BR><BR>Have a good trip.<BR><BR>john

Exactly what Susan (ssss) said. Stayed at Le Cep. Loved the hotel and staff. Didn't like the overpriced, stuffy restaurant. <BR><BR>Beune has plenty of other restaurants in the town that are worthwhile, and the hotel can also help you find one. <BR><BR>This is a great little town. Highly recommend.

Erin, we were at the Hotel de la Poste with a restaurant called St. Christophe where I ate fantastic Burgundy snails.
