Hotels in Vieille ville de Colmar, Colmar

Vieille ville de Colmar is the most convenient base for sightseeing on foot. The Unterlinden Museum, the Petite Venise canals, the Saint-Martin collegiate church and the main market squares are all within a ten-minute walk of hotels in this district. Guests staying here rarely need public transport to reach Colmar's primary attractions.

Eight hotels currently operate in this area across a range of categories. The most affordable option is LOGIS Hôtel Saint-Martin, a 3-star property rated 4.5 out of 5 at around 107 EUR per night. Mid-range four-star options include Hôtel Le Colombier at 188 EUR, Hotel Le Maréchal at 204 EUR and Hotel Le Colombier Suites at 213 EUR.

The old town works reasonably well for families, particularly those with older children interested in history and architecture. The pedestrianised lanes are safe for walking, and the covered market and local patisseries provide easy access to food throughout the day. Parents with pushchairs or very young children should be aware that cobbled streets are common and can make wheeled transport more tiring. Some hotels in the area are boutique properties in historic buildings, so room layouts and lift availability can vary.

Colmar's main train station is roughly a ten-minute walk east of the old town centre. The route along the Rue de la Gare and then into the pedestrian zone is straightforward and mostly flat. Local buses also connect the station to the centre, and taxis are available outside the station. Guests arriving by car should note that the old town is largely pedestrianised, so hotel parking, where available, is usually in a nearby public car park rather than on-site.
