Would be pleased to have a recommendation for a nice bed and breakfast place or inexpensive hotel somewhere along the wine road between Colmar and Strasbourg - preferably nearer to Colmar.
Thanks for any advice!
On this website:

you will find quite a good selection along the Route du Vin. I have stayed at many places (apart from my friend's house in Colmar...), at Riquewihr, Ribeauvillé, Eguisheim, St. Hippolyte, etc.
Apart from Eguisheim the places are north of Colmar, so where you want. Zellenberg which is also in the list is just up on a hill above Riquewihr.
Have a look at this nice one in St. Hippolyte:

(Sorry, I forgot the name of the two I stayed at :-( And once I stayed at the Hotel du Parc which is more costly.)
Riquewihr is very touristy and so - in general - more expensive. St. Hippolyte is also a good location for visiting the castle of Hohkönigsburg.
You can google more B&B's by searching for: Chambres d'hotes + the name of the village.
Thank you so much for the very helpful information. I will look into these possibilities.
Dear friends

Kind regards
Very nice place - but not between Colmar and Strasbourg, but west of Colmar.
When you are there do not miss to visit the next village, Turckheim. Absolutely wonderful and some great restaurants.
Start your tour with a visit in the "Unterlinden" Museum. There can be found a lot of interesting exponats, including the "Issenheimer Altar" which is the most famous one.
It shows the life of Alsace people in a very good way and it should not missed on a visit in Colmar.
I will check the adress and tell it to you later.
The creativity of human beings is amazing. Who would have thought to communicate this message in this way. I don't know what street it was on, but I saw at least one other example. It seemed to help keep the beaten paths relatively clear.
We visited theBartholdi Museum expecting it to be dedicated to the Statue of Liberty. However, the museum is his home and a lovely place. This photo is of the dining room. Quite a unique use of the china, but a nice effect. Bartholdi did not only the Statue of Liberty but a fountain in Philadelphia for the observance of USA's centennial in 1876. His work can also be seen all around Colmar. Some joke that all his statues have one arm raised, but there are exceptions.
"In 1277, despite the opposition of the canons of Saint Martin, the Dominicans were called to Colmar and began construction of their buildings here. The first stone of the church's chancel was laid in 1283 by King Rudolph of Hapsburg, and the building was completed during the first half of the 14th century. Superb stained glass windows survive from this period. The chancel contains the retable of the virgin of the rose bush, a masterpiece executed in 1473 by Martin Schongauer."
Each time I passed in front of the Maison des Têtes (House of the Heads); I wondered what had inspired the merchant Anton Burger in 1609 to build this manor in German Renaissance with its 111 grotesque heads or masks on the frontage!?
The façade is beautiful with its oriel which rises on three stages. The gable is surmounted by a statue, representing a cooper, made in 1902 by the sculptor Bartholdi.
The porch opens on a paved yard. The house, when built, was leaning against the fortifications of the Old Colmar. It has been a "Bourse aux vins" wine exchange office, then a restaurant and a hotel.
=========================
A chaque passage devant la Maison des Têtes, je me suis demandé ce qui avait inspiré le marchand Anton Burger en 1609 de faire construire cet édifice de la Renaissance allemande avec ses 111 têtes ou masques grotesques sur la façade!?
La façade est belle avec son oriel, une avancée en encorbellement, qui s'élève sur trois étages. Le pignon est surmonté d'une statue, représentant un tonnelier, réalisé en 1902 par le sculpteur Bartholdi.
Le porche ouvre sur une cour pavée. La maison, adossée dans les temps anciens aux fortifications du Vieux Colmar, a été une bourse aux vins, ensuite un restaurant et un hôtel.
