Great staff, dining worthy of Michelin star
Hosted group of 11 before a barge cruise. Excellent staff, dinner worthy of Michelin star and comfy rooms, all in an old monastery perched on a hill with scenic views. But the best part was the staff who helped us transfer to our barge during demonstrations and strikes when no taxis or other transport was available. Kudos to the staff at Hotel Sauvage.

4 days before arrival I got a mail from the hotel that they had a problem with my creditcard. I phoned the hotel with the message that everything was correct. I used that card for every bookiing with your company this week. They accepted my explination. On monday I got a new mail that I should answer within 1 hour otherwise they couldn’t hold the reservation. I saw that mail not before arriving at the hotel. By checking in I had to pay in advance. Very unfriendley and not professionel.

We loved it
The Hotel Sauvage is amazing! First off, it is almost at the very top of the City, with incredible panoramic views. It has parking, which in Besançon is not always the case. We were greeted very warmly and professionally by the reception staff. And breakfast was very good. Great place!
