Where to stay in Eguisheim

Designated as one of France's "Plus Beaux Villages," the picture-perfect village of Eguisheim is nestled in a sunny valley surrounded by the green rolling foothills of the Vosges Mountains. This enchanting medieval village was founded in 720 by the Count Eberhard. Just a short distance from Colmar, this typical Alsatian village has narrow cobblestone streets lined with brightly painted half-timbered houses that date from the 16th and 17th century. Ancient inscriptions can still be deciphered on the stone lintels of the houses. These historic houses feature balconies that are lovingly decorated with potted flowers. Because of its exquisite floral displays, the village has been rewarded with the "Grand Prix National du Fleurissement," France's most prestigious national floral award. Visitors will enjoy wandering through the village, admiring the beauty of the buildings, and the colorful geranium-bedecked window sills.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

It is a beautiful old city with well kept buildings. There are superb restaurants, and one small convenience store. Everything is the town is easy to get to on foot. The people are quite friendly to visitors.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

The city is postcard perfect with the well kept ancient buildings. The only advice is on Monday and Tuesday to book ahead for a restaurant, as many are closed on those days.
