Traditional wooden architecture, picturesque villages, a gastronomic terroir par excellence… Alsace is a great place to live. Discover five top-of-the-range hotels with spa facilities in the north-east of France, for a stay steeped in gentle local charm.
5 Terres Hôtel & Spa in Barr
Looking for a beautiful hotel with spa in Alsace? Les 5 Terres Hôtel & Spa in Barr, 30 minutes south of Strasbourg and on the Alsace wine route, will win you over. It is the favourite establishment of the editors of Luxus and www.yonder.fr. While its name refers to the five types of soil in which the region’s vines grow, the traditional house faces the vineyards. It’s easy to see that good wine will be the order of the day. With its stone walls and wooden beams, the La Table du 5 restaurant, run by Michelin-starred chef Thierry Schwartz, enhances the local spirit with local produce and an attractive wine list. In fine weather, you can enjoy seasonal dishes on the terrace overlooking the Place de l’Hôtel de Ville.
This five-star hotel with 26 rooms and one suite boasts a spa with rustic luxury, famous for its wall covered in 5,000 gold leaf. The pools are nestled beneath sublime Vosges sandstone vaults and the relaxation areas are set within stone walls. Delicately lit, this spa enjoys a unique sense of calm.
Le Chambard in Kaysersberg
In the heart of the picturesque village of Kaysersberg, Le Chambard, with its Relais & Châteaux label, is an ode to gastronomy and well-being. After travelling just a few kilometres north of Colmar, you’ll quickly spot this 33-key boutique hotel thanks to its red façade and plant-filled windows.
Here you’ll find the two-Michelin-starred restaurant La Table d’Olivier Nasti, whose flavours highlight the cuisine of Alsace. The chef, an enthusiast of sustainable hunting, offers a menu with many game dishes and local produce, all refined and subtle. And after an exceptional culinary moment, head for the 200m2 spa with indoor infinity pool, jacuzzi, treatment rooms, sauna, hammam and terraces.
