Semur-en-Auxois is a charming village in a lovely region. We had a perfectly nice room up the stairs. This is not a luxury hotel, it is fairly basic, but clean, comfortable, and furnished with antiques. The price was fair, and it's very well located, if a bit hard to find in the car. The entrance is on a narrow street... More

We had a large room on the top floor with some views. Didn't eat the hotel as there are plenty of choices nearby in this quaint old village. Well worth a walk round. To use the car park at the hotel you must drive up a very narrow lane from a car park nearby, saves carrying your cases.

We stayed one night at the hotel on our way to Paris. Cosy room, good service and a traditional breakfast. For our family room, room no 14, we paid €116,-. When entering the room there was a light smell of "old room", but nothing to worry about at all. The room was divided into two sleeping areas, one double bed... More

We were in room 8 this time for three nights. The room was a bit small but adequate. We stayed here last year and had a much larger room (maybe 11?). Free courtyard parking is available and easy. Service wasn't as hospitable this year as it appeared the owners were away so the helpers were running the hotel. We tried... More

Spent one night here on our way from Paris to Beaune; the helpful guy at the TI up the street pointed us to it when we said we were looking for a central location and reasonable rate that included free wifi and parking. Hotel des Cymaises had all of those things, plus a lovely breakfast in the morning. The rooms... More

This was a decent place to stay considering we were just passing through. The staff was nice, breakfast was fine. It was really really hard to find, though. We had to ask directions over and over again. But that aside, it was a typical old style french hotel, not expensive, and just fine for one night.

This lovely quiet hotel is a real find! Location in the heart of the village, but with a free car park. The room was "so French" with ancient furniture (felt as in a mansion), but with flat screen TV and free wi-fi (one of my must have's). Nice and helpful staff. Will come back.

Looking at the other reviews, I'm really puzzled, and have to wonder: Did we go to the wrong hotel? Did we enter a parallel universe, or the Twilight Zone? Because the Hotel des Cymaises we saw was just awful. We reserved two rooms here several weeks before our trip, based on previous reviews on Tripadvisor. We didn't have unrealistic expectations:...

I am sure that this hotel was a fine town house or possibly a coaching house once upon a time. It is not particularly modern i.e. no lifts air con etc., but the house is very old and looks as if it has recently been refurbished. To me this hotel is quintessentially French in its style. The owners are very... More
