Everything. The location is amazing. Auxerre is a hidden gem. The B&B is a very old home but spectacularly maintained and the facilities are all modern. This home is a pride and joy of the owners. The rooms are filled with art work. It is immaculately clean and tastefully decorated. So French! We loved the location for walking to the river. The breakfast had fresh croissants and baguette, home made jams and juice, yogurt. Excellent coffee and tea. Jerome is an awesome host and such a sweet, welcoming host.
Le Nid Douillet offers accommodations in Auxerre, a 12-minute walk from I.U.F.M de Bourgogne Centre d'Auxerre and 1.4 miles from Auxerrexpo Convention Centre.

I don't know why was havn't discovered this pretty town before. Based on the river with a huge range of architecture including a couple of lovely churches/cathedrals. Will return to make use of the bicycles.

Nice historical town at the river Yonne and Canal de Nivernais. Old city center much bigger than expected. We were positively surprised that obviously the city council seems to be interested to keep pedestrian places clean - which is not always the standard in France in cities of this size.
There was a great open-air art-exhibition (July 2023) at the river bank of the Yonne.
Would come back again to visit museums and some nicely located restaurants.

Auxerre the capital of Yonne department and fourth largest Burgundian city lying on the banks of river Yonne 150 km South West Paris and 120 km North West Dijon. Auxerre was a flourishing Gallo-Roman centre named Autissiodorum in the first century AD and in the third century became episcopal chair, bishopric the provincial capital of the Roman Empire, receiving a cathedral in the fifth when the city walls were built by the feudal lords/counts of Burgundy. Renowned for vine cultivation and production of fine Burgundian wines including Chablis, in 1995 Auxerre was named Town of Art and History indeed evident in this medieval city with its myriad of half-timbered buildings enshrouded with French Renaissances residences.
The perfect place to stay is the Clos St Eusebe apartment within the WineMakers House in the heart of the city to explore the places of interest:
Cathedral of St Elieme (Gothic)
Abbey Saint Germain (Housing Bishops of Auxerre Tomb)
Tour de l'Horloge d'Auxerre (Clock Tower)
St Pierre en Vallee Church (Local wine growers financed)
Church of St Eusebe (Romanesque)

Really charming town fronting the Yonne river with a lovely waterfront, moored river boats and plenty of excellent restaurants & cafes. Beautiful places of historical interest including an incredible Cathedral, Abbey & Church - highly unusual for a town of this size.

We loved this accommodation and this town so much we stayed an extra night. Cute exposed timber houses and so many cathedrals make this small walking town a fun place to explore.The St Germain Abbey has super old frescos and contemporary art as well. Follow the trail of Cadel Russell to see everything there is to see in this beautiful fairytale town. Stop at the Horological Tower. Make sure to get baked goods at Eric Roy. Picnic on the Yonne river. Off the beaten path, yet so close to Paris.

An interesting and friendly small city with good food, wine and lovely countryside close by. I would say there is enough to see and do for a stay of around 1.5 to 2 days but on the recommendation of the hotel staff and some French guests, I hired a bike on my third day and cycled 30 miles along the Canal de Nivernais and back. The city itself has some very striking architecture and plenty of restaurants and bars. The crypt below the Cathedral and the frescoes in L'Abbaye de St Germain are the main sights but it's also a good place just to amble around.
A beautiful little hotel in a historic building only 2 minutes away fom the historic centre. The room was very cosy, well equipped and spacious. In the morning a delicious breakfast was served with home-made jam and also home-made apple juice and other delicacies. The host was very friendly and helpful and did not only supply us with useful information about Auxerre (restaurants etc.) but also with charming conversation which allowed us to improve our French.
Amazing opportunity to stay in 17th century manor house. Situated right in the old town centre you may think you are in the country when you are in the house or garden. Beautiful historic building and furniture. Touring parts of the house with our host and hearing about its history was just as good as touring the abbey. Thank you Alexandre! We always wondered what lay behind some of those huge walls and gates in the old towns.
Very nice room located on the top floor of a small commercial building about five minutes walk from the centre of Auxerre. Access via door code and key box worked fine. Very comfortable bed and nicely equipped. The free-standing bath was great for a bath but a bit tricky for a shower. There is paid-for on-street parking outside (free on Sunday) or unrestricted on-street parking a few roads away.
What a lovely place! We booked last minute after feeling too tired to continue our journey. I'd normally stop in the Ibis which was booked up, so this was a random choice. It is beautifully furnished, and the owners and their dog are charming. It would have been nice to have stopped for a few days.
There are tea and coffee making facilities and a large garden with views over the cathedral.
Reception staff were friendly and helpful. The bar was well-stocked with local produce (this is Burgundy country but they also stocked an excellent locally brewed beer). The room was comfortable and spotlessly clean. The free wifi worked. Breakfast was good. This is not a hotel with pretensions to luxury but a very good mid-market place for a stopover on a trip through France.
Liked the room "overlooking" the river (trees mainly blocked the full view but still nice to look at). Old fashioned decor but pretty well maintained basic rooms. The breakfast buffet was good quality and the hotel staff were very amenable and accommodating. Good location in the old town and close to all the sites of interest.
We arrived late at night at Le Maxime. Auxerre was freezing and a soft cloud of icy vapour was lifting up from La Yonne river. Imagine how warm it felt when at the reception they told us we received a free upgrade to the Hotel's suite, with a balcony on the river! Breakfast was prime quality, too. Absolutely recommended.
Great place to stay while exploring Auxerre. Le Relais des Saints Peres is located at the heart of the city. The host, Jerome, is very friendly and welcoming. The rooms are comfortable and clean. The breakfast is good as well. The parking is nearby and free overnight.
Fantastic location in the centre of Auxerre with easy free parking. Lovely clean, fresh-looking room, and an excellent bathroom. Very friendly staff, and a really good value breakfast. We would thoroughly recommend this hotel for an overnight stop.
Good location, only a short walk from old town Auxerre. The secure parking in the grounds was our reason for choosing this hotel.
The pool looked inviting although we didn’t use it during our stay.
The owners were very polite and helpful.
We did not book the room with breakfast, so at the hotel we were able to choose between 2 options of breakfast which worked well for us.
There was a small, nice and bright reading area with some magazines and books.
We liked the friendly welcome (after Paris it was a relief)! The hotel has character and is located in walking distance to the shops and restaurants. Our room was spacious and had everything we need.
Lovely, spacious room and breakfast with varied options. Garden is beautiful, with view of nearby St. Eusebe. Great to have parking on site. Perfect for walking everywhere in Auxerre.
The location in the centre of the old town with lots to see and do, eateries close by.
The privacy of the apartment; the helpfulness of the host Jeremy.
