Beneath the benevolent shadow of the sandstone cathedral, the paved streets still echo to the steps of Goethe and the great romantics who marked out the town's history. Further on, in the area know as Petite France, timber-framed houses reflect in the water of the canals. Between these two poles of attraction, the Hotel Maison Rouge facade stands triumphantly, a stone's throw from the bronze statue of an impassive General Kléber. The Hotel Maison Rouge, located in the pedestrian area, is sheltered from noise and pollution: a strategic departure point for discovering shops, museums and restaurants in complete tranquility. For the evening entertainment, the cinemas, bars and theatres are also just minutes away.
