Where to Stay in Alsace

by Rosalind
(Manchester England)

We want to spend a couple of weeks in Alsace in August this year.

We want to be based in perhaps 2 different places. We are looking for a hotel or bed and breakfast.

What we like is somewhere we can do sightseeing of little villages etc but where we can return to in the afternoon and sit and lounge in the garden or by a pool and read afterwards.

Our budget is not unlimited. We speak French and will have a car.

Thanks,
Rosalind

The Wine Road in Alsace
by: Suzele

Hi Rosalind,

You've just described the entire Wine Road in Alsace...

There are about 100 villages and an infinite number of hotels, bed and breakfasts, and vacation rental appartments or gites.

Well...maybe not an infinite number...especially in July and August...but still there are a lot of them.

And since you speak French, it will be even easier for you to find what you are looking for!

I'm right in the middle of creating a pretty extensive list of villages including hotels and other accommodations plus nearby day trips...and not just the wine road villages either!

And for those of you who enjoy "staying on the beaten path" also known as the most touristy parts of Alsace, here is the short list...

Some of them are VERY touristy and some are just well known (but slightly less travelled)...

It might help you narrow down your list of "must sees" in Alsace.

All of the wine road villages in Alsace are charming and interesting...some are more popular than others because there is something unusual about them...but not always...

Sometimes I have no idea why some villages are more popular than other lesser known villages...

And most of them have hotels, restaurants, and wine!

You'll notice that a lot of the villages seem to be close to each other...and they are...with some of them you could walk from one to the other...with others it would be more of an invigorating hike...

Some people like to ride bikes from one to the other...just be careful of traffic...especially in the summer...

Have fun!

where to stay in Alsace
by: Tom

If you're looking for a place to stay on the Route du Vin in Alsace, I recommend either Kaysersberg or Riquewihr.

Both are very touristy with many hotel or Chambre options and many good restaurants. Plus both are right in the middle of Alsace.
