I
n the heart of Strasbourg, classified World Heritage by Unesco, discover the district of La Petite France.
This sleek hotel is located in the most picturesque district of old Strasbourg. Understated, contemporary rooms feature parquet floors, flat-screen TVs, and tea and coffeemaking facilities. Upgraded rooms add river views.
There's a hip restaurant decorated in vivid colors. A trendy champagne bar offers views of the river.
The magnificent half-timbered houses date from the 16th and 17th centuries. Fishermen, millers and tanners once lived and worked in this neighborhood built on the surface of the water. Their sloping roofs open onto attics where the skins used to dry. Completely destroyed during the Second World War, Strasbourg embarked on a post-war reconstruction policy for this picturesque district.
