Hôtel Le Colombier is a four-star hotel in the centre of Colmar with 45 rooms, ranging from doubles and twins to triples, family rooms with connecting doors and suites. It sits on a quiet street yet close to the old-town sights, and it is known for a signature organic and gourmet breakfast, a private garden and a shared patio where you can sit out in good weather. The hotel has a bar, a lift, free Wi-Fi and a luggage room, and it is pet-friendly. It has no on-site restaurant, so you will eat out in the evening, which in Colmar is an advantage because the old town is full of choices within a few minutes' walk. It holds several quality and environmental labels, and the welcome is French, German and English.
Location and getting around
The hotel is in the town centre, about a kilometre from the railway station, so arriving by train means a taxi or a twenty-minute walk with luggage. Once you are there, the old town, the canals and the museums are walkable, and the hotel has a closed bicycle garage and bike rental for rides into the vineyard villages. Parking is available, which is a real plus in a town where many old-town hotels cannot offer it, but check the cost and the booking process in advance.
Rooms and facilities
Rooms have a shower or bath and toilet, and family rooms with communicating doors help parents with children. Children under three stay free, and highchairs, cots and baby-changing facilities are provided. Air conditioning is not offered, so visitors in July and August should plan for warm nights and ask about a quieter side and a fan. There is no pool or spa, which keeps rates sensible, and the garden and patio are the main spaces for relaxing.
Who it suits and what to know: this is a good pick for couples who want comfort and calm rather than a themed room, for families who value parking and connecting rooms, and for cyclists. Breakfast is a highlight, so allow time for it before a day trip. Book early for the Christmas season, when four-star rooms in the centre fill first. With no restaurant, reserve dinner tables in the old town, since popular places book out in December and at weekends.
