A charming traditional hotel in a prime location, right in the heart of the picturesque "Little Venice" district. Our standard room, located in the attic, was quite small but cozy, well maintained, and spotlessly clean. However, the final access to the room is via a steep and narrow staircase, which is worth bearing in mind. Unfortunately, we visited Colmar during the hottest days of the year, and the air conditioning system proved to be insufficient to cope with the high temperatures. The highlights of our stay were the excellent location, the courteous and professional staff, and the outstanding breakfast, served in a delightful and romantic dining room.

Overall, I had a very pleasant stay. The hotel’s location is excellent and very central. The rooms are part of a restored old house, which gives the place a very charming and cozy atmosphere. I stayed in a top-floor room overlooking Little Italy; the view was fantastic, and I felt very comfortable even staying alone.Cleanliness, service, and the overall experience exceeded my expectations. The complimentary buy-one-get-one cocktail offered at check-in was also a nice touch.One thing to note is that the hotel charges around €20 for a transfer to the train station if they arrange a taxi. It’s more economical to use Uber or similar apps instead.I didn’t try the hotel’s restaurant, but the one at the entrance of Little Italy just across the street opens at 6:30 PM and serves very good food. There’s usually a line, and their cocktails are also excellent.Overall, I would definitely recommend this hotel for its location, comfort, and atmosphere.I was traveling solo, but I would especially recommend this hotel for couples.

We loved everything about our stay at Hotel MRechal! The location is fantastic, offering convenient parking while still being within easy walking distance to town. Our room was absolutely spotless and featured a beautiful view overlooking the Little Venice canal. On top of that, the staff was incredibly friendly (Mr. Loan) and the breakfast was delicious. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and highly recommend it!

We stayed in the height of the heat in August for one night. Walked here from the station - not too far and doable. We were upgraded and had a lovely double room with a view our to the canal at the back, a massive double bed and a fabulous bathroom. The aircon was very welcome on such a hot day and worked very efficently. This is an old building with all the novelty and charm you get with that. Easy to walk into Little Venice, lots of lovely old buidlings surrounding the area. Staff were really helpful and happy to sort out whatever was needed. We didn't eat here so can't comment on the food. Colmar was a lovely place to visit and we really enjoyed our time here. Would stay again.

We stayed in the main house this year - which is significantly better than the annexe. We had a beautiful room at the front with a comfortable bed and loads of beams (and almost silent air-conditioning) The hotel has a lovely courtyard and the staff were so helpful trying to ensure we had enough light to play boggle by. We love this place for the location and the breakfast. In fact, the two combined are what makes it special: the buffet has just the best breads, cheeses, pastries, jams plus (huge plus) cremant ad libitum. And then you eat it looking out onto the historic centre with its cute canal.What could be better?

Hotel Le Maréchal was ideal for us. In style with Colmar as a village. Old style, but very comfortable with excellent service. The hotel is located ideally in Little Venice just minutes walk away from the city centre. A very cosy walk along the canal, via the market and you are there. Parking was easy, right outside the hotel with a spacious public parking and private parking is possible to book. Room was comfortable, classic style bed, but with a modern fresh bathroom. Breakfast was delicious and it is possible to sit partly outside along the canal for breakfast. We had dinner in the restaurant and that was very high class food and service. Highly recommendable place. Well done Maréchal!

I loved my three-night stay at Le Maréchal. I booked directly with the hotel and paid €117/night for my single room, which felt like an amazing value for such a beautiful location and level of comfort. My room, “Purcel” (Room 34), was designed for solo travellers but had a comfortable double bed, six windows including two overlooking the canal, a mini fridge, Nespresso machine, kettle, safe, and plenty of storage. The renovated bathroom had a huge bathtub, thick towels, robe and slippers, and luxurious Lalique toiletries. There were also thoughtful amenities such as a sewing kit, manicure set, cotton pads and shoe-shine sponge. The air conditioning was exceptional and by far the most powerful and effective AC I experienced during my entire European trip, even during very hot summer weather. That made a huge difference at night. The location is fantastic: right in the heart of Petite Venise, within easy walking distance of everything, and only about 15 minutes on foot from the train station. The staff were friendly and spoke English, and they kindly helped me with my luggage because my room required navigating some stairs. There were a few quirks: the safe didn't work even after being reset, the old-fashioned room key was a little inconvenient, and the bathtub is under a low sloped ceiling with no shower curtain or splash protection, so using the shower can result in water on the floor. Conditioner and body lotion were also not provided, so bring your own. One amusing highlight was looking out my windows and seeing tourists on the bridge below gawking at the beautiful hotel and its canal view; it felt like I was the paparazzi target! I would absolutely stay here again. Beautiful, comfortable, excellent location, genuinely luxurious touches, and outstanding value for a solo traveller.

Lovely little hotel with lots of charm. Easy walk from the train station and easy access to everything you need. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Room was small but surprisingly for a single room it had a double bed. Bathroom had been updated (only downside no plug for the sink, which makes washing clothes difficult when you’ve been living out of a suitcase for weeks). I had a room backing onto the canal which was lovely, however did let a lot of light into the room (fixed with an eye mask) I’d skip the breakfast if you prefer a western breakfast, it had a good selection of pastries, bread and cheese.
