Hôtel Philippe le Bon

We stated at this lovely boutique hotel located in the heart of Dijon historic city centre in late August 2025.

Service was wonderful. We were warmly welcomed by duty manager ‘Brice’ who spoke fluent English and arranged secure car parking for our BMW at the hotel.

Dinner in the hotel was superb – the steak was perfectly cooked (one of the best we had during our holiday in France) , the side dishes were great and the wine recommended by the waiter was excellent as were the starters and dessert.

The food in fact was better, and more satisfying than in a Michelin restaurant we subsequently visited in another French city.

There is a bar in the hotel which serves great cocktails and all the staff were friendly and helpful.

Our room was spacious – furbished to modern standards –including very good air conditioning (important in the summer) and a large en suite bathroom, and large comfortable bed. It was also quiet and we had good sleep after a long journey.

Dijon city centre is very picturesque and is literally on the doorstep from the hotel making it easy to explore on foot, which we did after dinner.

Breakfast was substantial with a good choice of hot food and a continental style buffet, coffee and fresh fruit juice etc.

We would gladly stay at this hotel again. We would definitely recommend it to our friends.

Clean, comfortable, well-located, excellent bar, friendly staff

Staff we’re fantastic

This was the second time we stayed at the hotel and the refurbishments have improved it even more. Great place from which to explore the city.

Great restaurant recommendation by check in staff. Gave us a map and called restaurant to check we could get in as it was quite late. Beds were great. Lovely old room. Great with our kids.

Great location on the edge of Dijon Old Town. Staff were very helpful. Standard room was small but clean and bed was very comfortable. Private parking needs to be booked but there is a public carpark opposite. Be aware that restaurant and bar are closed on a Sunday, which we didn't know until we arrived. A few restaurants open nearby so not all was lost!

Staff was excellent and extremely helpful. Very nice upgraded hotel, rooms are nicely appointed. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. It was a good location, close to town center.

The reception staff here are absolutely excellent.
Location is fantastic.

The only negative is my room was located above the bar so it was quite loud. Given the price of the room, I was disappointed with this.

Love it

We would definitely stay here again. The hotel was quiet, clean and easy to be in! Staff are very friendly and helpful. The dining room is exceptional!!

The bathroom was odd in that it didn't have shower curtain, and only had a handheld in a bathtub. Made for a wet, small bathroom when you were done.
Comfy bed.

This hotel was in a great location and very walkable to town. The rooms were up a lot of stairs but they helped us bring the luggage.they recommended a great restaurant and were nice at the desk. The bed should be updated. Bathroom was great. There was a bar outside our window so it was occasionally loud until maybe 11.

Good place to stay, comfortable rooms.

This is a lovely hotel with an historical ambience and all conveniences and services available. We enjoyed the options of the breakfast buffet. The shower in our renovated room was one of the best I’ve ever used.

Started off well with two young gents at reception- ‘your room is in the old part of the hotel’ - suspect that’s where they put the ‘old’ people - no lift and the stairs a challenge- young man carried our cases up! - ask for a room in new section with lift! - next morning arrived for breakfast at 10.15am (Hotels.com site says until 11.00am!!!) - non finished at 10.00, no one offered a coffee or croissant!! - we explored Dijon returning to room at 3.30pm to find our room had not been serviced, despite reception asking if we wanted this to happen, oui! - returned later in evening to find the door key wouldn’t work - another trip up & down stairs to reception- upon entering the room found one fresh towel & a used one hanging behind the door. (all used towels had been placed in bath tub as requested! -at the bar asked which of the wines offered by glass was local Chardonnay?, neither of the bar staff were sure!!! - same question re Pinot Noir, same outcome!!!!
Reception staff were all ‘busy’ and ‘going to speak with Head of this or that - there was a lot of lip service but little genuine focus on the customer- the taxi order was another issue, but I’m exhausted!! We’ve been travelling for 3 weeks in multiple hotels, this was our least favoured experience!! We loved Dijon and we’re On the train to Paris - PS; there is an excellent public multi storey carpark directly across the road from hotel

We will definitely plan a return to Dijon and definitely stay here again. Beautiful old building, 5!minute walk to everything, helpful staff and lovely restaurant.

Friendly reception staff who sorted a room problem very quickly and efficiently. Restaurant excellent. Parking illusory

The TV was not working (no chrome cast), and the shower was not as advertised. It was basically a bathtub with a handheld nozzle you had to hold above your head. They gave us 10% off our bill for the broken TV (they also offered to move us to the next room), but this basically just covered the cost of breakfast (not included).

Super friendly and helpful service. Thank you Charlie especially!

Amazing bed, lovely decoration, great location
