Top hotels in Port du Rhin
Auberge de Jeunesse HI Strasbourg
excellent, against what I had read. The staff is a little slow and kind, the lack of common study (electric plugs, wifi, seat in the warmth) areas remains to progress on.

The soap dispenser is difficult to use if you have arthritis. Was disappointed there was no mini fridge in the room.

Le Grand Hotel
No issues whatsoever, great location for the Christmas markets in Strasbourg, the train station is just across the road and yet it's still quiet. Rooms are a good size with plenty of storage space andbthe breakfast is enough to set you up fof the day. Yes, I would stay there again.
