Style and location = Perfection!
We -- two couples -- found the convent flat to be superb in every way. The location couldn't be better for exploring Beaune and walking/biking to nearby vineyard towns. The large open-plan living/dining area provided plenty of space for us to spend time together, and the two bedrooms afforded privacy. The flat is outfitted with everything one could want, and it is furnished and decorated in a thoughtful, elegant and non-fussy manner. Lovely views from the windows, which offer a cross-breeze on summer nights. And of course there is the garden for lounging and an outdoor apero. Should we visit Beaune again, this will be our first choice. Thank you!

Gorgeous, quiet, clean 2 bedroom with perfect kitchen and garden
What a beautiful renovated floor of a former convent. Everything in its place with high ceilings and the traditional beamed ceiling. The kitchen has an incredible set of amenities; pots and pans and sharp knives made it easy to cook meals, and we loved the provided coffee and sugar. The Gigandet's were consummate hosts, responsive and kind, especially when we had a little trouble finding the entrance in the dark on the first night. If we're ever back in town, we will definitely reserve it again.

We really enjoyed staying at this property. Sparkling clean, well cared for, modern conveniences, uncluttered, and, as my friend said, "Europe's best shower"! Great location. Hard to top this spacious and quiet place. Two flights of winding stairs and a lack of handrails may deter some.

Perfect Location, Great Accommodation
We had a great week at the former convent - it's a short walk into the centre of beautiful Beaune, and there's a great outside space with chairs and loungers in the garden, shared with the apartment below. The kitchen had everything we needed to eat in occasionally and the short walk into Beaune allowed us to eat out easily too! It also had parking, which was important for us. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful apartment near the heart of Beaune
Staying at La Maison du Couvent was a restful experience where we were surrounded by simple beauty in each room. Every member of our family commented on the peacefulness of the residence, maybe tied to its history as a convent, but certainly attributable to the aesthetic design of the space. The colors of the walls of the bedrooms (a greenish blue and gray) somehow made you feel like you were a part of the sublime sky outside. We kept the updated windows, whose style tied in with the original architecture of the building, open in the afternoons and evenings, allowing us to hear the singing of nearby birds and the flowered scents of gardens that the apartment overlooked. In the communal spaces of the apartment, the clean lines of the kitchen and modern appliances invited us to cook, while the living room and dining area, decorated with subtle yellows and oranges, provided a perfect space for gathering as a family. The central area of Beaune, including the historical hospital of the Hotel Dieu, were a short walk away from our front door. A close-by bike shop also awaited us, where we could rent electric bikes that took us through the surrounding vineyards and small villages of Burgandy. If you are looking for a peaceful, beautiful landing space in one of the best wine growing regions of the world, we can’t recommend La Maison de Couvent highly enough.

Spacious Apartment
The apartment is spacious and attractive. The ols wooden beamed ceilings are gorgeous. It has a well equipped kitchen and beautiful bathroom with double sinks, lots of counter space and a fantastic shower. The location is very good, near a nice park and the vineyards and a short walk into the heart of tbe old town. It was very quiet during our entire stay, which included a weekend. The only negative was the weak and spotty wifi, but that wouldn’t keep me from staying here again. We had a lovely stay.

This was a wonderful rental—great walkable location, beautiful quaint setting, modern interior in charming old building, well-stocked kitchen and nicely furnished. The beds, pillows, and linens were all comfortable. Parking just outside the entrance. We could not have had a better location and and will not be disappointed. As a added benefit, our family of 4 (with 2 teenagers) had this unit and our friends (with 1 teenager) had the one downstairs. They share a courtyard and grassy area. It is perfect for 2 families or a group of 7 (maybe 8?) people.

Wonderful!!!
This little apartment is exactly as beautiful and charming as it looks in the pictures. We were there with our two kids; plenty of space for everyone. I would say that four adults would also have been equally comfortable. The toilet is separate from the shower and sinks, si sharing a single bathroom is much easier than one might think. Beautifully appointed and the washer AND dryer were much appreciated (again, we were there with two young children). We loved the location; just outside the ring road surrounding the city center. We had all of the conveniences of the city center without any of the noise. The garden is lovely and we lived our close proximity to the Parc de la Bouzaize (great for kids!). We didn’t make use of the bikes on this trip, however, I did a lot of running and enjoyed easy access to plenty of trails. We will most definitely return to La Couvent and thank Caroline and Max for creating such a beautiful, charming space. We loved every moment of our stay!!!
