Serviced Apartments in Dijon

Dijon is a city in the eastern interior of France, roughly a three hour car ride from Paris. The city is known for its beautiful array of attractive churches and cathedrals, and unlike many cities in France, much of its oldest architecture is still standing despite being occupied in the Second World War. There are excellent accommodation options here, with Dijon holiday apartments being the first choice for many.

Dijon has a reputation for fine wine, food and liqueurs. The first foodstuff that comes to most people's mind on the mention of this city is the famous Dijon mustard. Such is the city's fame for this particular condiment that there are many specialist mustard shops in the town selling all sorts of unusual versions. It is a good idea to stock up on souvenirs from these shops and store them in your Dijon serviced apartment until you are ready to leave.

Also, Dijon is found in the Burgundy region of France and as such produces some of the finest wine in the world. It is possible to arrange winetasting trips to several excellent vineyards within 20 minutes of the city. Most tour companies will pick you up at your Dijon holiday rental and drive you out there and back, so don't worry about staying under the limit!

Other venues worth a trip from your Dijon short stay apartment are the market of Dijon (designed by Gustave Eiffel no less) and the François Rude Square. This square is often the place of much entertainment and merriment and has cafes with a nice, relaxed atmosphere. Boutiques and restaurants are plentiful and you will not need to travel far from your Dijon serviced residence to find one.

A Dijon city centre (center) apartment provides the benefit of being close to many of the great architectural examples the city has to offer. The Porte Guillaume is found on the Place Darcy and is much like a miniature Arc de Triomphe (just without the traffic problems). Not far from the centre you will find many typical streets in the old town centre which have a character all of their own.

Booking a Dijon short stay apartment in July or August will present you with the best of the weather. Average highs during the summer months reach around 24 or 25 degrees Celsius, but the weather is certainly comfortable from May to September, at least.
