Obernai's hotel-restaurant combinations put you steps from Alsatian cuisine and the town's half-timbered center. At Logis Hotel De La Cloche, housed in a 14th-century building on Rue de la Gare, the restaurant serves regional dishes under original Spindler paintings, and the terrace overlooks the pedestrian streets leading to the Christmas Market. Rooms include free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and family-friendly options, with the Saints Pierre et Paul Church just 10 meters away. Hotel Sainte Odile, also on a pedestrian street near the market, pairs air-conditioned rooms with a restaurant offering regional cuisine, a bar, and a terrace-ideal for couples or budget travelers seeking a central base with breakfast included.
Expect to pay roughly €80-€150 per night for a double room with breakfast, depending on season and room type. Both hotels provide free Wi-Fi and non-smoking rooms; the Citotel Cit'Hôtel des Vosges adds free private parking and an apartment with a kitchenette, while the Yona ex Le Parc Hotel (about 800 meters from center) ups the ante with a 3,000 m2 spa, three pools, and a gourmet restaurant. Book ahead for the Christmas market (December) or the summer festival season, as these hotels fill quickly. If you arrive by train, note that Citotel is a 10-minute walk from the station; for drivers, parking is free at Citotel but limited at the center hotels.
