Hotels near Colmar - Houssen Airport - CMR, Colmar

One of the nicest things about this exquisite town is that you can find your own corner, away from the big groups, of tourists on the little tourist,trains. Yes, you’re a tourist too, but you can explore a little differently, stroll though the beautiful park outside the hotel, find brilliant tucked away historic areas, lovely restaurants with a unique flair, offering something other than the admittedly delicious flammenkuche/tarte flambée (which are well worth a try). A tour of the Route de vins (small group. Not big bus) is a highlight: the independent wineries are superb. It’s perfect for solo travel because people were so natural, welcoming and friendly.

Touristy but thoroughly enjoyable - after all we are tourists ourselves!, Great location for exploring the Alsace wine route. Some beautiful villages within easy car rides and excellent restaurants in Colmar itself.

Colmar is a truly magical place! It is a small town, but incredibly beautiful and cosy. The atmosphere of the Middle Ages flows right through the streets here: picturesque alleys, brightly coloured houses with flower-filled balconies, canals and ancient bridges. The whole town looks like something out of a painting, and every corner is a delight. I especially liked the historic centre, where you can just walk around, enjoy the architecture and pop into small cafés and shops. I highly recommend visiting the ‘Little Venice’ area — it's one of the most romantic corners of the town. It is also worth visiting the ancient churches and museums, which perfectly complement the atmosphere. Colmar is also the centre of the Alsace wine region, and it is definitely worth trying the local wines here. Many restaurants and wineries offer tastings and traditional Alsatian dishes such as tarte flambée or kohenfläisch. The only thing to keep in mind is that it can be quite difficult to find a free table in a restaurant in the evening, especially if you haven't booked in advance. This doesn't detract from the city, but it can be unpleasant if your children are crying and want to eat right away.

Charming Alsacian city with a unique cozy vibe. Very Walkable city with great sites, restaurants and shops. Visit the Petite Venise area and the covered market. Just outside of Colmar are numerous small towns and wineries.

Lovely city center, unique atmosphere. Weather was just perfect, had several walks through the center looking at the unique architecture - visited church , Museum (interesyting) We were staying there 2.5 days but also visiting couple of very nice villages just 15-20' distance with car. Negative side: my husband is vegetarian sometimes we had some troubles to find options for him (but finally we managed)

Colmar is beautiful. It is touristy but that doesnt detract from how nice it is. We went in September and not too crowded. Two or three days stay recommended. It's an easily walkable place with lovely architecture. Lots of choices of restaurants. Spend a day on the bus from the station or tourist info to visit the medieval wine villages. You can visit them all if you leave early enough or spend a bit longer at some. We did three and enjoyed it. There are little tourist trains in Colmar and the villages and these are a good way to get a flavour of the places. Easy to visit Strasbourg for a couple of days from Colmar. I would recommend Strasbourg first then Colmar.
