Hotels in Houssen

Just a short drive from the heart of Colmar, Houssen offers a quieter, residential base for exploring the Alsace region. The main appeal here is its proximity. You’re minutes away from the historic center of Colmar, with its famous Little Venice district and the Unterlinden Museum, yet you return to a more relaxed, local atmosphere. It’s a practical choice for those who want easy access to the Alsace Wine Route and the fairytale villages like Eguisheim without staying in the busier tourist center.

This town is ideal for independent travelers and couples with a car, as it provides excellent value and free parking that can be scarce in Colmar itself. The area around Rue de la Hardt is a convenient spot to look for accommodation, with good road links to the A35 motorway. Houssen is also served by regular Colmar public buses, making a rental car convenient but not absolutely essential for day trips.

Accommodation here is dominated by practical, good-value hotels and a few charming guesthouses. For instance, you’ll find options like the HOTEVI Colmar Hotel, which offers modern rooms and an outdoor pool, perfect for unwinding after a day of sightseeing. Staying in Houssen means your budget stretches further, letting you spend more on the region’s incredible food and wine.
