Hôtel le Spuller — Hotel in Dijon

We booked this hotel as part of our long trip back to the UK from the South of France and we were visiting an attraction in the area the following day.||||When we arrived, and we were able to park immediately outside which is always a bonus, the establishment was firmly locked up! There was a printed notice on the door explaining that the hotel & restaurant is closed on Mondays except for pre-booked reservations. ||||There was a number to call but my spoken French is not that great, so I rang the central Logis de France office who were able to help. After they contacted the owner it transpired that our room keys were in the letter box to the left of the front door! ||||After letting ourselves in, we headed to the rooms which were nicely decorated. However there was a problem with the shower in our room which meant that the water wouldn't drain away and overflowed to the floor.||||Now, remember I said that the hotel restaurant was closed on Mondays? Well, this causes a problem if you want to eat as there's nothing else in the village apart from a fast food place! In the room, there was a helpful list of restaurants in neighbouring towns & villages, however the nearest of these was still at least a 10 minute drive away which wasn't ideal as I'd driven up from Monaco and was looking forward to a drink! ||||I was a little surprised that the room rate was exactly the same on a Monday as any other day, despite the lack of facilities available. Had we known in advance that the restaurant was going to be closed, we would have chosen a different hotel , however that's probably my fault for not inspecting the website closely enough! ||||If you do want a hotel in the area on a Monday, there's an Ibis Budget in the nearby town of Creancey which is much cheaper and opposite the Courtepaille restaurant which is where we...

We stayed one night only and ate dinner at their restaurant which was reasonably good. The room we were shown was on the 4th floor via a narrow staircase which made taking luggage up/down the stairs a bit difficult. The hotel seemed empty but we were told that was the only room available. The sleeping area was quite small but clean and very quiet and the view was very nice. The bathroom looked like it was newly renovated and was quite large and modern. It was also very clean. The person who checked us in was very accommodating even though she spoke very little English and we spoke no French. She took our heaviest bag up the stairs for us! There was street parking available which worked out fine since the town seemed to be deserted even though it was a Saturday night in July. We walked around town after dinner and did not see any other hotels or restaurants, other than a carry out, in...

I stayed with Remy and his family of staff for a week in spring and was never left for a minute. Everything was attended to without delay. The room was wonderfully cosy in the cold nights and the restaurant and bar delivered food and local wine of excellent quality. The place was always humming with guests, local and international, and provided a perfect home from home during a business stay. I recommend Le Spuller to any traveller to this quaint village!! Merci beaucoup Remy. We...
