Our take
Dining is the strong point of the Hotel Vauban, with two restaurants, one Italian and one traditional, rare for a hotel of this size in Besançon. Rooms are soundproofed with a flat-screen TV and minibar, and there is a terrace and a 24-hour front desk. The Museum of Fine Arts is a short walk away. With 8.0 from fewer than 300 reviews, I would pick it for a short, food-focused stay.
