Grand Hôtel du Tonneau d’Or

The Jura Mountains


A belle époque hotel right in the city centre, the grand (if gently faded) 'Golden Barrel' combines its original Corinthian columns, huge stained-glass windows and a sweeping central staircase with 52 large, modern rooms, some with a view of the Lion du Belfort.

There's a 10-space parking lot, otherwise you can make do with street parking.

Rates drop 25% from Friday to Sunday.
