The 10 best boutique hotels in Colmar

The Esquisse Hotel & Spa enjoys a privileged location on the edge of the Champ-de-Mars park and a stone's throw from Colmar's main tourist attractions. We love the warm, modern design of this luxury hotel, which stands in stark contrast to traditional hotels! All the hotel's decor has been designed as a tribute to Auguste Bartholdi, the local sculptor and creator of the Statue of Liberty.

You'll also enjoy a top-of-the-range bar with bay windows and a 500 m2 spa by Clarins! For an ultra-privileged stay for two, the hotel offers two very luxurious flats on the top floor, measuring 83 and 185 m2.

Located in the centre of Colmar, the Maison des Têtes is a house steeped in history that has been transformed into a 5-star hotel, a member of Relais & Châteaux. Its contemporary decor and natural colours bring out the best in the superb original traditional woodwork.

The hotel has two restaurants: the Brasserie Historique, with its typical period decor and classic dishes such as sauerkraut, and the Girardin gastro restaurant, with its uncluttered white atmosphere and one Michelin star!

Right in the heart of the emblematic district of 'Little Venice', Le Colombier hotel is housed in an authentic Renaissance residence. In terms of decoration, this 4-star hotel wonderfully combines design elements, such as the red carpin sculpture in the lobby, with the classic spirit of the building.

All the rooms are refined and elegant. The hotel's inner courtyard, with its astonishing monumental fountain, is the perfect place for a drink whenever the weather permits!

The James Boutique Hotel is one of those places that makes you feel good instantly! The hotel is not very big, the welcome is smiling and this charming hotel has managed to create a really warm atmosphere with a very successful contemporary decoration.

Le Maréchal is located right in the heart of Little Venice. It was built on the city's old fortifications dating back to the 16th century and overlooks the water, which is what makes this establishment so charming!

Decorated with antique furniture, the hotel offers a classic yet chic atmosphere. Le Maréchal is home to the gourmet restaurant À l'Echevin, a Colmar institution. In summer, you can enjoy traditional and regional gourmet cuisine on the riverside terrace.

Le Quatorze is a boutique hotel ideally located in the heart of Old Colmar, a stone's throw from the Bartholdi Museum and the city's main attractions. This former 19th-century pharmacy has been converted into a hotel with 13 rooms, including two suites.

Built in 1920, Villa Élyane is just 300 metres from Colmar station. The renovation of this beautiful residence has brought it completely up to date, while retaining all its charm and character.

The rooms at Villa Élyane are decorated in a contemporary style, each with a seating area and some with a private terrace. The residence's former smoking room has been transformed into a library with 3D television, and you can also enjoy a pool table in the lounge.

More than just a hotel, Paul & Pia invites you into a large house just a few minutes' walk from the station and the centre of Colmar. You'll discover a vibrant mix of colours and cultures, with decor influenced by your hosts' travels in Europe and South America.

It's a cosy little cocoon with a cosmopolitan feel. More than just a bed to sleep in, it's an experience for a unique and unforgettable stay.

The Hôtel Arc-En-Ciel is located just 1 km from Colmar city centre and offers free private parking and a bicycle shed for your convenience. The best thing about this hotel? The particularly warm welcome from the staff! There is also a terrace and veranda where you can enjoy breakfast or a quiet moment.

In terms of décor, while the communal areas are "colourful", the atmosphere in the rooms is simpler and more timeless, with soft, natural tones. Everything is done to make you feel 'at home'.
