I'd looked forward to staying at this hotel for years. When I'd tried to book the hotel on previous trips to Beaune it was already fully booked and I'd ended up staying elsewhere. I loved the hotel. The location cant be beat - absolutely central inside the city center. We walked to all the restaurants. After days filled with cellar... more

We stayed at the Hotel Le Cep for 3 nights in early June. We loved our stay here and are looking forward to returning. We had a junior suite with a balcony overlooking the courtyard. The hotel’s location couldn’t be beat, with so many restaurants within easy walking distance. Beaune is the prototype for the typical French town in the... more

Third time at Le Cep - and as usual it is a highlight of our trip to Europe! The location is perfect in the heart of Beaune. The staff was incredible in the assistance and knowledge - helped us with a broken window in our rental car. After a day they had learned our names and we always got greeted... more

Le Cep is a particularly ornate and sumptious family-run hotel located in the heart of Beaune and is evidently popular with the Burgundy loving well-heeled of the world. The hotel's website even features extracts from its guest book which includes various well known names (helpful if you like to have a better idea of who might have slept in the... more

We stayed 3 nights in Beaune and wished we could have stayed longer at Le Cep. There are only a couple of negatives about this place, which I see in other reviews. Yes the rooms are old with dark heavy timbers, walls can be a bit thin - but then this is an old building in regional France, not a... more

Hotel le Cep is a TREASURE in the walled city of Beaune, our favorite little Burgundy town. The location is the best-just off the town square, but very quiet. All the nicest restaurants and shops are within a block or two. The Front Desk staff made a dinner reservation for us at a different spot each of our 4 nights... more

We just returned from two wonderful weeks in France, where we did a lot of driving and stayed at five different hotels -- including two nights at Le Cep. We were a little disappointed, perhaps because Le Cep has such an outstanding reputation. Probably the biggest problem was the breakfast -- not enough room for guests to sit down in... more

Arrived early afternoon, really looking forward to it. Deluxe room booked, 200 euros,room in garden next to kitchen, quite noisy as staff coming and going all the time ,even during the night. Room very dark and austere, quite small, bed comfortable. Bathroom large but boring. Reception staff very frosty. Bar staff very helpful. Breakfast poor and definately not worth 20euros.... more

We stayed for one night only (Bastille Day) on the way back from the South of France. I'd booked here based on the reviews on this site, rather than the planned more traditional Novotel motorway stopover, and blew the budget as it was the last night of our holidays. We were not disappointed. After nearly 8 hours in the car,... more
