Where to Stay

Grand Hôtel La Cloche.

$$$$ | HOTEL | At this luxurious, 19th-century grand hotel, ask for one of the large, plush guest rooms overlooking the tiny, tranquil back garden and its reflecting pool. The garden is also the backdrop for the stylish restaurant, Les Jardins de la Cloche. Pros: very comfortable beds; attentive staff; imposing entry hall and smart bar. Cons: bad soundproofing; ostentatious lobby. | Rooms from: €225 | 14 pl. Darcy | 03–80–30–12–32 | www.hotel-lacloche.com | 55 rooms, 10 suites | No meals.

Hostellerie du Chapeau Rouge.

$$ | HOTEL | Colorful, well-appointed rooms display charm and designer chic at the “Hotel of the Red Hat,” a Best Western–branded property where the pleasant surroundings are complemented by the fine fare at William Frachot’s on-site restaurant. Renowned for classic cuisine laced with inventive counterpoints, the eponymous eatery (closed Sunday and Monday) serves dishes like pink-shelled Tarbouriech oysters with fromage frais and line-caught bass with shiso, seaweed, and mushroom broth. Pros: fine restaurant; central location. Cons: breakfast is extra; staff can be gruff. | Rooms from: €120 | 5 rue Michelet | 03–80–50–88–88 | www.chapeau-rouge.fr | 28 rooms, 1 suite | No meals.

Le Jacquemart.

$ | HOTEL | In an 18th-century building in Old Dijon surrounded by antiques shops, a steep staircase leads up to high-ceilinged guest rooms of variable comfort, decorated with rustic furniture. Le Jacquemart is very popular, so be sure you book well in advance. Pros: cheerful; good value; nice bathrooms. Cons: far from the train station; no elevator or air-conditioning; some rooms don’t have private bathrooms; might be too basic for some. | Rooms from: €65 | 32 rue Verrerie | 03–80–60–09–60 | www.hotel-lejacquemart.fr | 33 rooms | No meals.

Wilson.

$ | HOTEL | This hotel’s “bones” are 17th century, set as it is in a fetching timber-frame post house; inside, the guest rooms are accented with wooden beams and rustic furniture. Ask for one on the inner courtyard, where it’s quieter. Pros: central location; near Stéphane Derbord’s noted restaurant. Cons: some rooms are small and claustrophobic; rooms in front get street noise. | Rooms from: €98 | Pl. Wilson | 03–80–66–82–50 | www.wilson-hotel.com | 27 rooms | No meals.
