The Originals City, Hotel Colmar Gare is a practical, mid-range base on Rue des 3 Épis, a short walk from Colmar’s railway station. It suits travelers who prioritize rail access, simple comfort, and a reasonable rate over boutique character, and it is part of The Originals, a French network of independently run hotels.
Rooms are relaxed and functional, with flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi. An optional breakfast buffet covers early departures and family mornings before a day trip. The hotel’s 3.2 guest rating points to mixed reviews, so set expectations for a straightforward stay rather than polished luxury. Its strengths are convenience and connectivity. Business travelers value the quick link to trains, and families on a budget can save money for days in the old town and along the Alsace Wine Route.
Visitor Highlights & Practical Info
Book well ahead for late November through December, when Colmar’s Christmas markets fill hotels and push prices up. Summer weekends and the autumn grape harvest also get busy. Spring and early November offer calmer streets and better rates. Allow about 15 to 20 minutes on foot to reach the half-timbered old town, Petite Venise, and the Unterlinden Museum, or take a local bus. Regional trains from Colmar station reach Strasbourg in about 30 minutes, which makes the hotel a convenient base for car-free trips around Alsace. Confirm room configurations, breakfast pricing, and parking directly with the hotel before arrival.
