His colleague, Léa, who is new today, was able to recommend a restaurant that serves escargot. Alas, it is not in Arbois. Subsequent visits to the front desk were always very pleasant and informative, responsive to requests for recommendations. Our room was over a street other than the one of the front entrance, overlooking the Promenade des Tiercelines - if that means something I'm unable to figure it out. There is a nice view of The Collegiate of Notre-Dame. It was a bit noisy when we were getting ready to retire, about 11:30 (23:30 for Europeans) but closing the window really kept the noise level down well. I would say that a couple more electrical outlets wouldn't hurt a bit, but my expectations there seem like they might be a tad unrealistic. On the other hand, maybe the hotel industry just needs a wake-up call and to provide more access to travelers. There are two of us, and if we wanted to plug in all of our electrical items at the same time, we'd be short two outlets. This IS a room for two people, after all. Soon enough, we'll be having the breakfast, so there will be more to comment on.

They took the time to point us to the best sights and shops and restaurants, and helped us arrange all. I've been to 35 countries and seven continents, and not enjoyed a better stay anywhere.

We had five course meals both nights we stayed and were astonished by the artistic quality of every course, the attention to detail and the panorama of flavors. We ended our stay with a massage which was just perfect. I highly recommend Maison Zugno to anyone who is a foodie, anyone who is in need of serenity and relaxation, or anyone who just wants a pleasant experience in a beautiful place.

This hotel is located on the outskirts of Poligny France in a beautiful countryside setting. The…read morecharming stone structure and nicely decorated interior give off a really good vibe. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The hotel features a Chef who trained under a Michelin Star Chef which equates to really special diners at the establishment, along with Jura wines. I indulged in tasting the wines from the region and two outstanding diners. There is one entrée featured each evening, I had the veal the first evening and the sea bass the second evening. Both prepared beautifully to perfection. The rooms are large by European standards and very clean, with a very comfortable bed. The hotel is located 1:30 minutes from Geneva Switzerland and easily reached by freeway. There is a back road route that is the ride of terror with steep turnback's and tailgaters who drive like maniacs. Not recommended unless you are looking for a thrill ride and white knuckles. Great price/value and truly a way to experience the culture in France. The town of Poligny is a 5 minute drive from the hotel.

2nd trip back to this restaurant in a small village outside Poligny. The Chef is in a league of his…read moreown, very creative fusion cuisine. I had the Mediterranean Minestrone, it is not what you would assume it is. Sardines, mussels, tomatoes, and couscous. The Sea Bass stew was prepared with potatoes and saffron. They have a wine pairing menus with delicious wines from the Jura Valley and elsewhere or you can order on your own. Unusually large portions for a French restaurant. The restaurant has a very comfortable setting in this small French village with narrow streets. Service is excellent and especially helpful choosing the wines from the region since most are not familiar with this variety. All of the starters and entrees are impressive but the short ribs and sea bass are off the charts. All of this is followed by a cheese cart you walk up to and choose your 4-5 selections of local cheese. The local cheese is addicting. Fresh powerful flavors. I could not stop eating the cheese on this trip. Check out these photos from last nights WOW dinner.
