French Fancy

Holiday Rental Description

While the building dates back to 1768, this apartment in charming Strasbourg places modern comfort at the forefront. Located in Grande Île, you'll have the city's atmospheric streets and celebrated attractions right on your doorstep, including the Cathédrale Notre-Dame, the romantic Rhine River and the main shopping district of Place des Halles – this place comes alive during the festive period with German markets lining the squares.

Start your morning with a coffee as you perch on the living room's Juliet balcony, watching the locals go about their day. Inside, it's a bright and open space dressed in calming blue tones and stylish artwork that create a peaceful place to return after a busy day of walking. Flop down on the sofa with a glass of wine or rustle up French classics in the marble kitchen for a laidback dinner at home – that's if you're not out sampling the culinary delights at the many gorgeous restaurants and pubs, just footsteps from your apartment.
