How are prices calculated?
On our site, you enjoy lower prices because you book directly with the host, without any intermediaries or commission fees. Here is how it works:
• Our price: This is the direct price requested by the host, with no hidden fees or commissions. It is the fairest rate possible.
• Platform price: This represents the average price the host charges for their property on traditional platforms, which often include significant service fees (up to 15–20%).
• Our saving: We show the difference between the direct price and the average price on other platforms as a percentage, so you can see exactly how much you are saving.

Holiday rentals by department

in Grand Est

Choose a department to discover gîtes and B&Bs you can book direct, commission-free.

Contents

In Grand Est, Driing brings together holiday rentals offered directly by their owners, mainly in the Vosges mountains around La Bresse and Gérardmer, and along the Alsace Wine Route. With Basel-Mulhouse airport served by flights from the UK, Alsace and the Vosges are easy to reach. The median price is €85 per night (typically €60 to €150). For properties also listed on Airbnb or Booking.com, booking direct works out on average 23% cheaper for the same home: one of the highest savings in France.

Why book direct in Grand Est

Every property on this page is booked directly with its owner, with no platform commission added to what you pay. The saving is real: for holiday rentals in the region that are also listed on Airbnb or Booking.com, the direct price is on average 23% lower for the same home on the same dates. Over a ski week or a mountain holiday, that often adds up to hundreds of euros.

The price you see is the one set by the host, with no middleman between you and the person welcoming you. Same home, better price.

Where to stay: the High Vosges and Alsace

The region is built around two areas that most travellers look for:

  • The High Vosges, from La Bresse and Gérardmer to Saint-Maurice-sur-Moselle and Plombières-les-Bains: gîtes and chalets for skiing in winter, lakes and hiking in summer, with the Plombières spa as a bonus.
  • Alsace and the Wine Route, from Sélestat and Nothalten to the heights of Labaroche near Colmar: houses in the heart of the vineyards and Alsatian villages, in high demand during the Christmas markets.

Types of property and prices

Properties are mainly entire homes: mountain chalets and apartments in the High Vosges, quiet gîtes near the ski resorts and village houses along the Wine Route.

Prices reflect this variety:

  • Apartment or small gîte: around €60 to €90 per night
  • Family house or chalet: €100 to €150 per night
  • Large chalet (groups, school holidays): more, depending on the season

The most common amenities are Wi-Fi, free parking and a garden; some chalets have a spa or an open fire.

What to see in Grand Est

The highlights are easy to reach from most properties:

  • Lake Gérardmer, the “pearl of the Vosges”
  • The slopes of La Bresse, the largest ski area in the Vosges
  • The Route des Crêtes and its panoramic views
  • The Alsace Wine Route and its villages, from Sélestat to Colmar
  • The Haut-Kœnigsbourg castle

To get around, the Vosges can be explored on foot along the Club Vosgien trails, the lakes are perfect for swimming in summer, and Alsace is best discovered from cellar to cellar by bike.
