Every great journey starts with a single idea. Let me turn this hotel or experience into a fully customized trip, handling everything from airfare and accommodations to tours, transportation, and travel protection, so you can travel with confidence.
The Hotel Abbaye de Maizieres is ideally situated in the historical center of Beaune, a picturesque town, on a cobbled street. The entrance of the hotel is in the cellar through a medieval door next to a beautiful, vaulted window with Cistercian glasses.
This residence is known as Maizieres Abbey because it was owned by the monks of Maizieres Abbey from 1301 until the French Revolution, when the church`s properties were confiscated. Broken up in 1789, Petit Maizieres Abbey has, for some years, been largely reassembled by Bruno Epailly and his wife Emmanuelle, and now accommodates a beautiful boutique hotel.
The hotel is in the older part of Beaune, all within walking distance to the famous Hospices de Beaune, the Notre-Dame Basilica, the Hotel of the Duke of Burgundy (Wine Museum), shopping streets, restaurants, and wine bars.

Beaune
During its 2000 year existance Beaune was for a short period the capital of the Dukes of Burgundy, then a busy commercial center for the cloth and wine industries. The town took on a defensive character through the continous fortification of its ramparts and castle whose functions were to protect its interests and inhabitants. In the 18th century Beaune became the center of commerce for Burgundy's fine wines. Today, the visitor finds a charming blend of medieval half timbered houses, the gentle curves of romanesque architecture, rooftops ornamented by weathervanes, fascinating townhouses and the multicolored tiles and lead "lacework " of the Hôtel Dieu within the city walls. Bastions and towers offer a peaceful protection to the region's most prestigous products, and the moat has been transformed into public or private gardens sheltering century old plant collections.
