Hotel des XV

Strasbourg


Housed in a beautifully revamped villa near Parc de l’Orangerie, boutiquey Hotel des XV is a chic number. Monochrome interiors, geometric prints and art-deco-style furnishings are enlivened with bursts of teal or mustard, and swish yet understated rooms come with little luxuries like Nespresso makers and robes. Breakfast is great, with fresh pastries and fruit, and eggs to order.
