Les Toits d’Austerlitz

Les Toits d’Austerlitz Overview

First Impressions

The name says it all, really — Les Toits d’Austerlitz translates to “the rooftops of Austerlitz,” and that’s exactly what you get. Perched on the sixth floor above Place d’Austerlitz, this four-star property in Strasbourg greets you with a sense of elevation — both literally and in terms of the whole experience. The moment you step out and realize you’re looking out over the rooftops of one of Alsace’s most beautiful cities, you kind of just stop and take it in for a second.

Location & Neighborhood

Honestly, the location here is something else. Place d’Austerlitz sits right at the edge of the Grande Île — Strasbourg’s UNESCO-listed historic island — which means you’re within easy walking distance of the cathedral, the Petite France quarter, and all those winding cobblestone streets that make this city so memorable. Couples especially seem to fall for this spot, and it’s easy to see why — there’s something genuinely romantic about being this close to the heart of the city without being stuck in the middle of the tourist chaos. The area consistently scores among the top-rated in Strasbourg, and after spending time here, that makes complete sense.

The Rooms

The rooms feel thoughtfully put together — not overdone, but with real attention to detail. You get that clean, considered aesthetic that works well in a city like Strasbourg, where the architecture around you is already doing a lot of the visual heavy lifting. The higher floors especially give you those rooftop views that the hotel is named for, so if you can, it’s worth requesting something with a view when you book. I mean, you’re here — you might as well wake up to the skyline.

Practical Perks

One thing that genuinely surprised me — free private parking. In central Strasbourg, that’s not something you take for granted. If you’re driving in from the Alsace wine route or arriving from Germany (the border’s not far), having a secure spot for your car without an extra daily fee is actually a pretty big deal. It removes one of those small logistical headaches that can quietly chip away at a trip. It’s the kind of practical detail that shows the property actually thinks about what travelers need.

Why Guests Love It

Les Toits d’Austerlitz carries a guest rating of 9.7, which — well, that’s not something you see every day. It’s the sort of score that comes from a place consistently getting the small things right, not just the big gestures. The combination of a near-perfect location score of 9.9, genuine character, and that rooftop perspective over one of France’s most beautiful cities creates something that’s hard to replicate. Whether you’re here for a romantic weekend, a slow exploration of Alsace, or just passing through and wanting somewhere that actually feels special — this place delivers in a way that sticks with you after you’ve left.

Hotels in Strasbourg offer guests the perfect blend of French elegance and Alsatian charm, with many featuring regional wine concierge services and traditional half-timbered architecture to enhance the authentic Franco-German cultural experience.

Reviews of Les Toits d’Austerlitz

• A magical space in a great location, kind and helpful hosts. Great for a multi-night stay! – Danielle from United States – 22 July 2025 (10/10)

  This is a wonderful location and a very sweet apartment. It was very convenient to have a parking space as well. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful. I booked for a family, but we ended up meeting later in my trip. But it's a great spot for 1-2 children… they will find it magical as do the adults.
  
  What could be improved: I read about the ceiling heights and stairs before I booked, so I have no reason to complain! I'm 5'10 and have a knee issue, but everything worked out fine. I think it would be hard for someone taller or less mobile however.

• Exceptional – Michael from Australia – 29 May 2025 (10/10)

  I was traveling with my wife and adult daughter. Antoine met us at the property as arranged and directed us to our free, secure car parking. He helped us with our bags etc and explained the workings of the apartment and made recommendations for things to eat, do and see. The location was perfect, providing easy access to the centre of Strasbourg and all it has to offer. The apartment itself was very comfortable and well equipped for the three of us. This apartment was the perfect base for anyone wishing to explore the beautiful city of Strasbourg.
  
  What could be improved: Whilst the apartment was fine for us, potential guests should be mindful of the fact that it is an attic residence on the top floor with a lift that goes to the fourth floor and stairs for the remaining two floors. Some guests may find this difficult but it is worth the effort!

• Superb – Sarah from United Kingdom – 8 April 2025 (9/10)

  Great location and comfortable. Recommend

• Exceptional – Daniele from Germany – 9 March 2025 (10/10)

  Everything: perfect apartment to visit Strasbourg.
  
  What could be improved: I have nothing to criticize, but clearly if you are tall people, this is a small attic and you might have some problems, but otherwise it is perfect.

• Perfect in every way. – Daniela from Canada – 15 January 2025 (10/10)

• A quirky, stylish & charming property with wonderful hosts – Stephanie from United Kingdom – 24 December 2024 (10/10)

  The apartment was very convenient for the Christmas markets and had everything in it that we needed. The beds were very comfortable. Antoine & his family went out of their way to make sure we were ok, including providing free parking, which was a huge bonus.
  
  What could be improved: Be careful if you are tall!

• Fabulous short city break in the heart of the city – Verity from United Kingdom – 12 August 2024 (10/10)

  Amazing location. Strasbourg is a beautiful place and this apartment takes you right to the centre. Wonderful greeting and assistance checking in and parking. Can’t recommend enough and hope we can go back one day.
  
  What could be improved: Sloping ceilings could catch you unawares but it’s part of the charm of the property.

• Perfect 🤩 – June from United Kingdom – 29 June 2024 (10/10)
