Disappointed by the Trip Advisor members' impressions of hotels in Dijon when searching for somewhere to stay for a long weekend, we found a spectacular apartment which we were amazed to discover is 50 metres from 'Place de la Liberation' within the pedestrianised heart of Dijon. The apartment had a large 'studio' space and separate kitchen and bathroom and compares with any of the 3 and 4* hotels and we would thoroughly recommend it to couples who, like us, have been looking for something different. [www.myhomeindijon.com]

The only downside for Dijon is the airport no longer has scheduled flights since Ryanair were stopped, but the TGV from Paris takes 1 hour 40 minutes and Dijon is four and a half hours from Calais by car. There's so much to see- especially the Owl Tour Walk which takes you through the centre highlighting the history and architecture.

I am glad that you found a gem in Dijon. I stayed there twice. Coco made it easier to deal with. I would like to discover someone like her in other area, Normandie, for instance. That is my next trip, if the euro is not so bad, not to mention the airfare.

Wouldn't it be fantastic if there were places all over Europe, N America and Australia/New Zealand, which had apartments like Coco's? ...where you feel 'at home' straightaway with everything to hand which you could possibly need!

We too recently returned from a ten day stay at Coco's place www.myhomeindijon.com. Anyone who stays there is in for a treat. The apartment is wonderful...lots of room, good lighting, well equipped kitchen, large bathrooms-anything one could ever want.

Coco is a marvel. The apartment was stocked with enough food to feed an army. The location is divine.

I should not be saying all this because we plan to return and I don't want myhomeindijon to become too difficult to book. However, as any real traveler does, I feel I should share my "finds". This is a real find. To all who come after us...ENJOY.
