Fodor's Expert Review Hôtel 5 Terres
11 pl. de l'Hôtel de Ville, Barr, Grand-Est, 67140, France
In the heart of this famous Grand Cru wine-producing town is this lovely hotel and spa housed in a former 17th-century trading house. It sits right on the main square and has a pretty view of the town hall. Leather, marble, exposed oak beams, stone walls, and velvet furnishings deck out the guest rooms and public spaces. There is also a reasonably-priced, upmarket restaurant, a wine bar, an airy lounge, and a pool and spa in the vaulted cellars.
PROS
- wonderful pool and spa
- centrally located on the Alsace wine route yet quiet
- good-sized rooms
CONS
- restaurant closed Sunday and Monday
- elevator doesn't reach all rooms
- town lacks nightlife and may not be vibrant enough for some
