The establishment is housed in a former convent dating back to the 13th century, but offers all the modern comforts you would expect from a 3-star hotel. Just a few minutes' walk from the city's main attractions, such as the famous Notre-Dame Cathedral or the TGV station, this hotel enjoys a prime location for discovering Strasbourg, whether you're traveling for business or leisure.

The hotel's 42 recently renovated rooms are available in various configurations, from single rooms to quadruple rooms. You’ll find everything you need for a pleasant stay: air conditioning, flat-screen television with satellite channels, free Wi-Fi, and a private bathroom. Every detail has been designed to provide a calming environment, perfect for relaxation after a day spent exploring the city or attending meetings. Whether you're traveling alone, as a couple, with family, or with friends, the various room categories cater to your needs, ensuring comfort and tranquility.

One of the hotel's strengths is its location in a quiet cul-de-sac, away from the urban noise, yet close to major attractions. If you need to quickly reach the European institutions or other key sites in the city, a tram stop is located just 100 meters away, making it easy to get around. For those who prefer to explore the city on foot, the Grande Île, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is just a few minutes' walk away. You can stroll along the canals and admire the typical half-timbered houses.

The buffet breakfast is served in a vaulted room with historical frescoes, providing an authentic and warm atmosphere. You can enjoy a wide selection of fresh and varied products, perfect for starting the day on the right foot. This unique setting gives the morning meal a truly special atmosphere, a convivial moment in a space that retains the charm of centuries past.

For those seeking a moment of relaxation, the hotel also has a bar where you can unwind after a busy day. Bicycles are also available for rent, an ideal option for exploring Strasbourg and its surroundings at your own pace. The multilingual staff is at your disposal to meet your needs and provide recommendations for the best activities in the area.

This space, both intimate and functional, is perfectly suited for seminars, meetings, or work sessions. Additionally, the hotel offers private parking upon reservation, which can be very convenient for travelers with cars, given the central location of the establishment.

The well-soundproofed rooms are all equipped with modern bathrooms featuring either a walk-in shower or a bathtub, depending on the chosen category. The comfort of the mattresses and the cleanliness of the premises are frequently praised by visitors, as is the friendliness and availability of the staff, always ready to meet your needs. Whether you need advice on an outing, a restaurant recommendation, or simply an extra pillow, you can count on a caring and professional team.

The hotel is non-smoking and accessible to people with reduced mobility. If you're traveling with family, baby cots are available free of charge, which is a great advantage for young parents. Additionally, a babysitting service can be arranged upon request, allowing parents to enjoy a moment of freedom with peace of mind.

The neighborhood around the hotel is quiet and pleasant, located between Place Kléber and Place Haguenau.

Strasbourg is both a historical and dynamic city, and this hotel places you at the center of everything it has to offer, while providing a relaxing and pleasant setting.

For culture enthusiasts, the proximity to Strasbourg Cathedral is a real asset. This masterpiece of Gothic architecture is a must-see, and you shouldn’t miss the opportunity to climb to the platform for a breathtaking view of the city. Just steps away, the Palais Rohan houses several interesting museums, including the Museum of Fine Arts, the Archaeological Museum, and the Museum of Decorative Arts.
