Hôtel Mercure in Besançon

Hôtel Mercure stands within the casino gardens in Besançon, opposite Parc Micaud and about a ten-minute walk from the railway station. This green setting is paired with private parking, while the hotel’s restaurant and bar provide places to eat and drink on site.

Setting and accommodation

The address is 3 avenue Édouard Droz, 25000 Besançon. Its position facing Parc Micaud gives visitors a clear point of orientation, and the station can be reached on foot according to the property description.

Several categories of air-conditioned room are described, including a small number of suites. Bedrooms have a desk, direct-dial telephone, television and minibar, as well as computer connectivity. Each is equipped with a bathroom and separate toilet facilities. Exact equipment can differ by category, so features that matter to a stay should be confirmed when choosing a room.

Breakfast, restaurant and bar

Breakfast is served as a buffet. The directory entry describes Le Vesontio, the hotel restaurant, as having a contemporary interior and serving regional specialities. L’Instant is the hotel bar, where guests can have a drink in a musical setting.

Hot dishes and snacks are also recorded as being available through the bar for guests who prefer to eat in their room. Restaurant service periods, bar hours and whether breakfast is included in a particular rate are all changeable details; historical schedules and prices have therefore been left out of this guide.

Other services

The hotel source lists childcare on request, dry-cleaning and ironing services, along with a shoe-polishing machine. These facilities may be useful to families or business travellers, but advance confirmation is advisable for any service that is essential to a visit.

Private parking is also recorded. Drivers should check current access arrangements with the hotel before arrival, particularly if they plan to leave or return outside staffed hours.
