The hotel was perfect for the occasion, starting with a huge breakfast buffet, good coffee, and what really turned into a leisurely brunch. Afterwards sauna, sleep, reading, writing, a bit of a walk through the very pretty old town of Ettlingen, and then dinner in the 1 Star Erbprinz Gourmet restaurant.</p> <h2 id="the-dinner">The Dinner</h2> <p>I chose the five course meal with matching wines and it was a solid 1 star performance. There was some &ldquo;fingerfood&rdquo; followed by an amuse bouche of salmon in joghurt sauce. Let&rsquo;s call it interesting. Especially the asparagus water with raspberry vinegar was strange.</p>https://blog.h-group.net/p/day-3-strasbourg-to-ettlingen/Fri, 30 May 2025 00:00:00 +0000https://blog.h-group.net/p/day-3-strasbourg-to-ettlingen/<p>Ettlingen. Wait, what? How does this line up with Colmar and Strasbourg? Where is that and what makes it notable enough to stop there?</p> <p>Well. It is about 10k south of Karlsruhe but its claim to fame for this trip is the Hotel <a href="https://www.erbprinz.de/en/about-us">Erbprinz</a>, which has been highly recommended to me and thus, Ettlingen is on the map.</p> <h2 id="the-morning">The morning</h2> <p>Again, a wonderful and restful night. Breakfast was a buffet, really well made and delicious food, even the bulk scrambled eggs which I usually have only contempt for. Lots of quick carb options, energy levels up.</p>
