Poster: A snowHead

Hi Oh Knowledgeable Ones
We're off to the Riviera in Aug/Sep, and Dijon is a random spot which falls about half way from Calais to Cannes. I'd be grateful for any pretty places nearby to nightstop en route. All advice considered, including Dijon itself if appropriate. It's just one night, but being able to walk out and have a mooch around before bed appeals. Thanks.

Beaune
Dijon is actually pretty nice but Beaune is nicer. Also any of villages along the Route des Grands Crus which runs between Dijon and Beaune esp if you like wine

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@Charliegolf, we stayed at Hotel Wilson in Dijon. We did have a nice mooch. Nuits-St-George is also a good option, very close to autoroute, nice bars and restaurants in the square. I think Hotel St Vincent was our bed for the night, and their restaurant was very good. Beaune is probably our favourite, and we've stayed in several of the hotels there. Can't recall any of them being bad. Lots of great places to eat too.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

@Charliegolf, We always like to be south of Lyon for our overnight stop to the Riviera so Vienne is our current stopover of choice, lovely walks by the Rhone and a nice variety of restaurants.
