My husband is going to a conference at Minatec in Grenoble in early December and I'm going with him. We will be there for a week (without a car). Where in town should we stay so that he can get to his meeting easily and I can explore the town? Recommendations for things for me to do and see while I am there would be great. Thanks.

The above webpages should tell you what to do, but briefly:Musee de GrenobleVieille Ville (Old Town)Access by cable car to Fort de la Bastille, good view from the top
