Burgundy unrolls its vineyards from the Côte de Nuits to the Côte Chalonnaise, around Dijon and Beaune, as far as the wooded hills of the Morvan. To the east, the Jura rises in plateaus, lakes and forests up to the resorts of the Haut-Jura and the Doubs. Spa hotels in Dijon and the vineyards sit alongside gîtes with heated pools and resort apartments with indoor pools. I've selected 25 places, all rated at least 8/10; the top-rated is The Marker (4.98/5).
Each city has its own selection, with a page for each type of accommodation.

Guests mention the heated water in their reviews, with the season when they say so.
A journalist or guide who stayed there describes the heated pool.
The hotel or the platform says so, but I haven't yet found a review that confirms it.
