I chose Novotel Strasbourg Centre Halles Hotel based on a handful of criteria. Thinking that the attractions at Strasbourg are concentrated on the isle, I though a hotel that is at the edge will be best. Moreover, walking from the train station to the edge is about 10 minutes which is a reasonable time frame. […]

Grand Hotel Bellevue, a 4-star hotel, isn’t my first choice when I made my trip in late January 2018 (winter). I was looking at Crowne Plaza Euralille instead. A pity it was fully booked.
