Hôtel Lamartine -Parking Dauphine

This is a truly budget hotel and you get what you pay for. The bed was ok but the bathroom looked like something from a slum - the flush mechanism had been broken off and it took ten minutes running to get warm water from the shower. For €40 it is hard to complain but was glad we were only here for a few hours to sleep

The house was in the process of being renovated, and should have been completed before taking in guests. When we arrived in the late afternoon the door was locked and nobody was there. There was a phone number to call but it wasn’t answering and diverted to an answer service which was incomprehensible. We went to a small bar round the corner to decide what to do and to have a drink-by this time we had driven 500 miles and had been up since 03:30am. Whilst having a drink my wife went back to the hotel and someone had arrived so we were able to get in. The room was clean but very tired and so were we so we decided to stay. Late in the evening someone upstairs decided to have a shower and water was running down the electrical cables in our room-we disconnected everything in the room and thanked our lucky stars we were only there for one night!!

Brilliant cheap hotel at the heart of Dijon! Clean beds, loads of hot water, helpful staff and good wifi safe from the noise of the city nightlife but only 15 mins from the Station and 5 from excellent food, etc - what more could you want? Don't come expecting international standards of 'tourist speak', hotel breakfasts or a high standard of decor (they're doing the place up!). But if you want a really 'value-for-money' place to stay in Dijon I can't recommend them highly enough.
