Hotel Saint Augustin

Hotel Description

You know what? I wasn’t expecting much from Hotel Saint Augustin when I first walked up to 13 rue Kuhn – it’s tucked on this quiet residential street that honestly feels more like where locals live than where tourists usually end up. But that’s actually the whole point, and it turned out to be one of those pleasant surprises that makes you feel a bit smug about finding something good that’s not crawling with tour groups. The building itself has that classic Strasbourg thing going on – you know, those shuttered windows and the kind of stonework that’s clearly been around for a while but doesn’t try too hard to announce it. Inside, it’s what I’d call comfortable without being fussy. The lobby smells faintly of coffee and has this lived-in feeling that immediately puts you at ease, like staying at a well-traveled friend’s place.

Here’s the thing about the location that took me a day to fully appreciate – you’re actually perfectly positioned between the tourist madness of Petite France (which, let’s be honest, gets pretty overwhelming by mid-morning) and the real Strasbourg where people actually live and work. I mean, you can walk to the cathedral in maybe fifteen minutes, but you’re far enough away that you don’t hear the street performers and tour groups at all hours. The neighborhood around rue Kuhn is genuinely lovely for evening walks – lots of those narrow streets with the half-timbered houses that Strasbourg does so well, but without feeling like you’re performing tourism, if that makes sense. There’s a decent boulangerie literally two blocks away that opens early, and I found this little wine bar – Cave à Vins something-or-other – that clearly caters to locals and has absolutely no English menu, which I took as a good sign.

The rooms are… well, they’re exactly what you’d want from a solid three-star place. Nothing Instagram-worthy, but honestly comfortable beds, good water pressure, and windows that actually open properly – which matters more than you’d think when you’re dealing with those warm Alsatian summer evenings. I stayed on the third floor and it was genuinely quiet, even though you’re still in the city center. The staff seemed to know what they were doing without being overly chatty about it, and check-in was refreshingly straightforward. Look, this isn’t the kind of place where you’ll spend time hanging out in the lobby or taking photos of your room, but that 8.7 rating makes complete sense to me – it’s the sort of hotel that just works, you know? You sleep well, you’re in a great spot to explore the city, and when you come back after a long day of wandering around, everything feels easy and unomplicated. Sometimes that’s exactly what you need.

  Nice hotel with perfect location. Not only it is close to the train station, but also not far from the city center. Very convenient to reach any places.
  Hotel personnel is very kind and helping.
  Air conditioner is working perfectly, which was essential during our stay, when temperature outside was up to +36.
  Would certainly recommend this hotel and would be glad to come back once again.
