The place is absolutely awesome, quiet, beautiful view around the area, nice staff. The breakfast was great.
It’s a bit challenging for the hot summer without air conditioning.
Neither Expedia nor The Hotel Du Bois make it clear in any way that this is an unmanned “Hostel” It is not a hotel in the way most people would understand. The room was ok, breakfast fine, but the lack of transparency on the status unacceptable. And for what you get it is actually expensive. I would not recommend it
Der kontaktlose Check-in und der Zugang via Code hat sehr gut funktioniert. Das Zimmer war nicht gut gereinigt, das Bett war wenigstens bequem und nicht durchgelegen. Was uns weniger gefallen hat war eine fehlendes Toilettenpapier, das Fehlen eines Ansprechpartners da die Rezeption nicht besetzt ist, die fehlenden Becher um sich einen Tee zu machen sowie die hohe Zimmertemperatur (es gab ein Klimagerät, das man aber nicht nutzen sollte). Das Frühstück war ok aber für 12,50 zu teuer. Dies hätten wir bei dem Preis als inclusive erwartet. Hier lohnt es, sich ein Frühstück beim Supermarkt gegenüber einzunehmen, sofern dieser geöffnet hat.
Très bonne situation geographique!
Supermarché, restaurants , pharmacie à proximités.
Nous avions pris le "studio hôtel" code d'accès à l'arrivée pour ouvrir les portes ce qui laisse le choix de l'heure d'arrivée.
Top confort, propre et la douche excellente!
Seul petit bémol les plaques electrique pour cuisiner qui ne sont pas très pratiques.
Très bon hôtel.
Chambre confortable, spacieuse, bien équipée et agréable ainsi que la salle de bain.
La personne à l'accueil est très sympathique, accueillante, disponible.
La réception d'un SMS avant l'arrivée avec informations et instructions est professionnel, rassurant.
J'ai passé un séjour parfait dans cet hôtel.

Kein Wlan, leider konnte kein Wlan hergestellt werden, TV musste zuerst die Sendergesucht werden und der Fernseher hat keine 82 cm und der Stadtblick würde ich nicht zu fest hervorheben, man sieht nur zum Nachbar.
Le confort, la tranquillité, la propreté, l'amabilité et le service du personnel de l'hôtel sont des qualités que je trouve dans cet établissement et sont toujours au rendez-vous au fur et à mesure des mes venues. J'ai toujours plaisir à venir à l'hôtel des Bois.
Hôtel très impersonnel en raison ... d'une absence de personnel !. Système de clé en forme de code; donc pas d'accueil. Par ailleurs, clientèle louche. Un client a dit à mon petit garçon de 8 ans qui se trouvait dans le couloir lorsqu'il a franchi la porte : "Enc..., tu m'as fait peur!". J'ai demandé "pardon???" et le client a répondu être originaire du Sud, donc utiliser ce terme "par habitude". Plus tard, il a tourné autour de notre voiture et laissé un mégot de cigarette près d'une porte. On aurait dit un dealer. Bien sûr, ce n'est pas la faute de l'hôtelier qui ne connaît pas ses clients, mais le fait d'être dans un hôtel sans personnel et d'y croiser ce genre d'individu n'est pas rassurant. Dommage car la personne de l'hôtel que j'ai eue au bout du fil était sympathique.
En bordure de la ville près d'un centre commercial mais le calme est assuré.
Hôtel propre et récent, bonne literie. Idéal pour une halte reposante.
Proche de villages alsaciens typiques.
Trevligt litet hotell som är fräscht. Finns några stolar samt gräsmatta att sitta på utomhus. Stor affär bredvid hotellet. Åt inte någon frukost dör nen det såg fräscht ut.
