***Hotel and charming restaurant in the historic heart of Besançon

Your stopover in Besançon with a view over the Doubs river banks

The Hotel Vauban offers you the privilege of a unique experience in the footsteps of the illustrious architect by staying in the historic centre of Besançon. Nestling along the Quai Vauban in the shelter of its pretty 17th-century arcaded facades, the hotel offers a magnificent view of the ‘Place de la Révolution’ and the Fine Arts Museum, the rooftops with their gardens and the citadel, on the EAST side; and of the Doubs riverbanks, the Battant bridge, the Madeleine church and the Moorish synagogue, on the WEST side.

It is in this setting steeped in history, a stone's throw from museums, cinemas, restaurants, monuments (the Citadelle is only 15 minutes' walk from the hotel) and the TGV station, that we look forward to welcoming you during your stay in Franche-Comté.
