Transports in Strasbourg

Our hoteliers recommend utilising either the A35 or the A4 motorway. The A4 is particularly relevant if you happen to be arriving from Paris. Strasbourg Airport can also be used, as this hub is able to cater to both domestic and international flights. Alternatively, it is possible to use the Gare de Strasbourg train station. This station is linked to the airport and it supports high-speed (TGV) services. It is owned and operated by the national railway carrier SNCF.

WHEN TO GO TO STRASBOURG ?

As this city is located within northeastern France, winters here can be quite cold. Many tourists prefer to arrive during the late spring or the early autumn. Not only are numerous festivals held during these periods, but the prices associated with hotels and accommodations tend to be more reasonable. While Strasbourg is known for its Christmas markets during the holiday season, keep in mind that hotel vacancies may be difficult to encounter. However, our hoteliers recommend visiting between January and February if you are arriving here to ski.
