Boutique Guesthouse & Outdoor Hot Tub in Alsace
Warm water and mountain air
Late afternoon. You are back from a walk in the Vosges, a stroll around the mountain lakes or a day among the villages of the Kaysersberg Valley. The robes are ready, the water is warm, and the hills stretch out in front of you.
For the next hour, the hot tub is reserved for you.
Our outdoor hot tub welcomes up to four guests, for one private session each day of your stay, at no extra charge. A quiet moment, and one of the simplest pleasures of a stay at Les Écrins.
Set in the garden behind the house, the hot tub looks out over the hills and mountains around Orbey. Warm water, fresh mountain air and the quiet of the valley: after a day exploring Alsace or the trails of the Vosges, it is the ideal place to slow down.
After a day outdoors. Back from a hike, a bike ride or a trail run in the Vosges, warm water is the most natural way to unwind tired legs, before a massage at the house or dinner in the village.
As the light fades. Soak in the outdoor hot tub as the sun sets over the Vosges, with the hills stretching out in front of you.
On a crisp winter afternoon. There is something rather wonderful about warm water and cold mountain air, especially after an afternoon at the Christmas markets of Kaysersberg or Colmar.
