Hotel Description
You know what surprised me about Médicis Home Strasbourg? It’s tucked away on rue Alice Guy in this quiet residential pocket that most tourists never stumble across, but honestly, that’s exactly why it works so well. I mean, you’re still close enough to walk into the city center – maybe fifteen minutes to the cathedral if you’re not dawdling – but you escape all that tourist chaos the moment you turn onto their street. The building itself has this understated French elegance that doesn’t try too hard, which I appreciated after staying at some pretty over-the-top places in other cities.
The rooms are what I’d call thoughtfully compact – they’ve clearly put effort into making the space work without cramming stuff everywhere just for the sake of it. What really got me was the attention to small details that actually matter when you’re living out of a suitcase for a few days. The lighting is warm instead of that harsh hotel fluorescent nonsense, and there’s enough surface space that you’re not playing Tetris with your toiletries. The beds are properly comfortable too (I’m picky about this), and the neighborhood is quiet enough that you’ll actually sleep well – no drunk groups stumbling past your window at 2 AM like you get closer to the main tourist strips.
I have to mention the breakfast situation because it’s one of those things that can make or break your morning rhythm when you’re traveling. They’ve got this spread that feels more like what you’d find at a good local café rather than the usual hotel continental disappointment. Fresh pastries that actually taste like they came from a real bakery, proper coffee, and they don’t rush you out the door. The staff genuinely seems to care about what they’re doing, which sounds simple but you’d be amazed how rare that is. One morning I was trying to figure out the best route to the European Parliament district, and instead of just pointing vaguely, the desk clerk actually drew me a little map showing which tram stops to use and mentioned that Wednesdays get crazy busy around there because of some local market. That kind of local insight is gold when you’re trying to navigate a new city efficiently. Sure, it’s a three-star place, so don’t expect marble bathrooms or a concierge in a fancy uniform, but honestly? The 8.5 rating makes perfect sense because they nail the fundamentals and then add these thoughtful touches that show they understand what travelers actually need.

Reviews
Good apartment in a great location. – Bart from United States – 12 July 2025 (7/10)
Great location, secure location. Spacious unit with air conditioning and sliding glass doors with a balcony. Kitchen had the basics.
What could be improved: Not a negative, but we were somewhat surprised that the rental is in a senior living residence. The residents and staff were great and very friendly to be around.Good location, very uncomfortable bed – Robert from Bosnia and Herzegovina – 22 June 2025 (7/10)
Location of the hotel is great, just in front of the tram station. It is very clean and the staff is polite and welcoming.
What could be improved: Bed is very, very small. We could not have a proper rest and were waking up every morning tired. Bed is definitely for one person. There are no any amanities at all, no shampoo, shower gel, toothbrush holder, nothing.Superb – Kamal from India – 26 April 2025 (9/10)
Neat and clean apartment, very close to tram stop and other shops. All tourist attractions are just 10-15 mins by tram.
Staff is very helpful and tries to accommodate every request possible.
What could be improved: To enter the apartment building you always need to depend on staff to open the door, you cannot enter on your own. Although we did not have any issues while entering, I think they should try to make the entry independent for guests.
Also, some basic kitchen essentials would be handy like salt, pepper, oil, rice cooker, non stick pans etc.
These are just suggestions to improve nothing was a deal breaker for us.Three nights in a quiet place – Natalija from Belgium – 17 February 2025 (10/10)
The apartment was very big for me alone – a sitting room/kitchen with a separate bedroom and ensuite WC/shower. Very clean. The bed was comfy and the sleep quality very good – quiet inside and outside. The accommodation is actually part of a seniors' residence – same entrance (just in case you are not sure where to go). The staff was very welcoming. It is not very close to the centre of the city, but trams are running just next to the building and it takes around 15 minutes to get to the central station.
Exceptional – Akash from India – 9 January 2025 (10/10)
Great location, just 2 minute walk from the tram station. The staff were very friendly. There are a lot of good eateries in walking distance. I'll stay here again when I visit Strasbourg in future.
I was happy – Mary from France – 7 January 2025 (10/10)
Mostly everything
What could be improved: NoneA stay close to the old town. – Tatiana from France – 26 December 2024 (8/10)
The hotel is located close to the old town, it’s 25 min walk or several stops by tram which is near the hotel. The room is really big, clean with a kitchen, sitting area and even a small balcony. The staff nice and helpful. It’s a nice and quiet location, but you will find some restaurants, supermarkets and a big shopping center right next to the hotel. I walked to the railway station in 45 min. The tram stop is next to the hotel in case you have big suitcases.
What could be improved: To open the entrance door you need to ring a bell. Couple of times I was ringing and there was no one on the reception to open the door. Finally a passing by guest of the hotel helped me. And what if someone returns very late? I asked for a badge to be able to open the door independently but the reception refused. It was really inconvenient and uncomfortable.Very much recommended!!!!! – Tatiana from Moldova – 15 December 2024 (10/10)
Very good location, close to the Gare Central, 10 min taxi. Very friendly staff, very helpful. Very large studio, with everything necessary, no disturbing sounds. I had to take the bus to Frankfurt at 4 a.m. the Station closes during the night, but the staff allowed to stay in the salon to wait until 3 a.m. offered a cup of tea. Wonderful people! Will come again for this accommodation!
What could be improved: –Superb – Travelwithrg from United Kingdom – 10 December 2024 (9/10)
Loved the location and staff were nice
Perfect place to stay – Margaryta from Germany – 3 November 2024 (10/10)
Great place to stay. Very nice and tidy apartment. It has everything you need and the location is perfect. Nice view, there are lots of restaurants and stores nearby. It is not far from the center. It was a short family trip and we really enjoyed it.
