LE DONJON Classé 4 étoiles Appartement 120 m2 5mn Centre Ville Au Calme

Hotel Description

You know what struck me first about Le Donjon? The name sounds way fancier than what you actually get – and I mean that in the best possible way. This isn’t some stuffy château experience where you’re afraid to touch anything. It’s this sprawling 120-square-meter apartment tucked away on Rue Sellenick, which honestly, most tourists probably walk right past without noticing. That’s actually perfect because you’re literally five minutes from all the Grande Île action – the cathedral, those gorgeous half-timbered houses, the whole UNESCO bit – but when you turn onto this quiet residential street, it’s like someone hit the mute button on the city.

The apartment itself feels more like staying at your well-traveled aunt’s place than a typical hotel setup. There’s real furniture, not that generic hotel stuff that looks nice but makes zero sense for actually living. The kitchen is properly equipped (I mean, you could actually cook a real meal here, not just heat up leftovers), and the space flows in a way that makes sense – bedrooms that are far enough apart that you won’t hear your travel companion’s 6 AM alarm, living areas where you can actually spread out and plan your day without sitting on the bed. The 4-star rating feels spot-on; everything works well and looks good, but it’s not trying to impress you with marble bathrooms or whatever. What really sold me was how quiet it gets at night. Strasbourg can be surprisingly lively, especially during the Christmas markets or when the European Parliament is in session, but this little pocket stays peaceful. You’ll hear the occasional tram in the distance – the Langstross-Grand’Rue line runs pretty close – but it’s more of a gentle urban lullaby than anything disruptive.

Here’s the thing that really sets this place apart: it gives you enough space and privacy to actually live a bit like a local. You can hit the morning market at Place du Marché aux Poissons (about a seven-minute walk), grab some proper Alsatian bread and cheese, and come back to eat breakfast at your own table instead of rushing through some hotel buffet. The 9.6 rating makes total sense once you’ve been there a day or two – it’s not flashy enough for a perfect 10, but honestly, what would you even complain about? Maybe that the Wi-Fi occasionally hiccups, or that you have to walk an extra block to find street parking, but those feel like pretty minor trade-offs for having a genuine home base in one of France’s most charming cities. If you’re the type who likes exploring Petite France in the early morning before the tour groups arrive, then coming back to a real living room to rest your feet before dinner, this is exactly what you want.

Reviews

• Traum Wohnung – Pia from Germany – 4 July 2025 (10/10)

  Gastgeber sehr freundlich, wir dürften früher einchecken. Die Traum Wohnung war sehr groß, schön und sehr gut eingerichtet, wie in der Beschreibung, sehr empfehlenswert
  
  What could be improved: Es gibt nur eine Toilette. Falls 6 Personen die Wohnung benutzen, könnte knapp sein … wir waren 4 und kamen klar

• Exceptional – Raquel from France – 1 June 2025 (10/10)

  El apartamento está muy bien situado. Las habitaciones son amplias y tienen buen acomodo, que a nosotros nos vino muy bien para pasar la semana entera. Está muy bien equipado y todo está en buen estado.

• Un des meilleurs réservés jusqu'à présent. – Maxime from France – 21 April 2025 (9/10)

  Incroyable si vous recherchez un très bon rapport qualité-prix. Confort incroyable, surtout au niveau de la qualité des lits. La cuisine et la salle de bains sont encore mieux que sur les photos et sont très faciles d'usage. Le confort du salon est tout aussi génial, sans parler des différents services télé (Netflix, Amazon Prime etc…) Le quartier est très bien situé au centre de Strasbourg, avec une rue très calme.
  
  What could be improved: L'appartement se situe au 5ème étage mais il permet de brûler quelques calories pendant votre séjour, ce qui reste un point positif au fond :p.
