Everything was perfect. Can not recommend this place enough from a location perspective, it is perfect for visiting Colmar or Strasbourg. You’re bang in the middle of so many places to see. Pity the hotel doesn’t do lunch in the afternoon, but otherwise could not fault, the staff were incredibly friendly and kind too!
