“Great value”

very accommodating ; receptionist very helpful and pleasant. Our second visit to this hotel and equally as enjoyable. Shall return here in the future.

“très bon hotel”

il manque quelqu'un à l'accueil la nuit, mais le système du coffre est très original et fonctionne bien pour une arrivée tardive.

“Cette résidence est très bien située, elle bénéficie d'un bon service, surtout pour le nettoyage”

La résidence est bien située et assez facile d'accès par rapport à la gare. Elle bénéficie d'un bon rapport qualité / prix. La prèsence d'une kitchenette est très pratique, et l'appartement est suffisamment équipé.

“A good budget room”

This is a nice place to stay for a few nights, with smart clean rooms in a modern building situated 10 minutes walk from the heart of Besancons. Whilst it is rather souless, it's great value for money and the mini kitchen (hobs, microwave & fridge) allows you to save on eating out costs if you desire. A word of warning - the reception has limited opening times so don't plan to check in late at night!

“Correct”

Standing normal pour ce type de prestation. Un bémol toutefois, le sol est en carrelage ce qui n'est pas des plus silencieux lorqu'une personne en talon marche dans le couloir!

“Très correct”

Un hotel très imperssonnel, seul reproche!

“il y a mieux”

Le ménage n'est pas fait le week-end

“Soulless and creepy”

We just wanted a cozy place for one night, and instead we ended up at this long-term residency hotel. There was no front desk, no service, no one to help us call a cab at five in the morning. The room was clean and included a mini-kitchen and bathroom, but had a creepy tiled floor and was cold. If you're staying long term in Besancon, it might be nice to have the privacy and self-sufficiency, but otherwise it's not a great choice.

“Was basic but convenient”

The Citea was conveniently located near the center of Besancon. The rooms were large and the kitchenette was supplied with most everything you would need to eat and do light cooking. It was clean but lacked a few confort items. The floors were tiled and cold (no rugs)and there was little in the way of comfortable furniture or good lighting. The rooms are made up only once during the week so you did have to ask for more towels, soap, toilet paper, etc. There was no daily room service to pick up trash, deliver towels or make beds. We didn't find out until the end of our stay that there was a laundry facility so it would have been helpful if someone had pointed that out earlier in our stay. After 7 or 8 p.m. in the evening there is no one at the door so if you forgot the combination or needed help I don't know what you're supposed to do.

“Not for serious self caterers”

We stayed in the Citea Besancon for 7 days. It is ideally situated near the town centre, only about 7 minutes walk from the old town but far enough out for a quick exit if you intend to tour around. We were given fresh towels every day and the room was kept clean and tidy. If you are intending to arrive by car I would recommend using the underground car park under the hotel. It is worth the expense as the nearest car park otherwise is about 4 minutes walk from the hotel. The one thing against this hotel is if you intend to go there to self-cater. There is no work surface, and the cooker is directly next to the sink and draining board which makes it incredibly difficult. It is fine if you need the facilities for boiling water for drinks etc but difficult for much else.
