Hotel La Diligence, Obernai, France

• Tradition with a modern twist: In the beautiful medieval town of Obernai, you'll find Hotel La Diligence – an elegant French boutique hotel. The exterior's authentic Norman-styled exposed wooden beams and half timbered elements make for a traditional fairytale-esque setting, while the recently refurbished interior lends itself towards a more modern and chic experience. It's the perfect base from which to explore the region’s wineries.
  
  
• Beautiful breakfasts: A beautiful French breakfast is served daily, with fresh pastries, cheeses, charcuterie, and coffee. Then there's Le Comptoir, the all-new gourmet space with fantastic views onto the square outside.
