Hotels near Chapelle de la Congregation des Soeurs de la Charite Maternelle, Metz

This is a lovely old hotel (above the main door in the stonework it says the royal hotel) an easy walk from the train station. Decor is lovely. There are extra sitting rooms downstairs and self serve tea and coffee is provided. Room was spacious for an Ibis, large bathroom, very comfortable beds and quiet. Breakfast was a bit chaotic, I don't think there were enough staff to cope with the number of guests, everything from food to cutlery kept running out. Loved the yoghurt and fruit but everything else was very carb heavy but that is probably my taste rather than French. My only problem was the house keeping lady. We had asked if we could stay an extra 30/60 minutes so we didnt have to hang around the train station and were told no problem the night before, yet at 1210 there was banging on the door and this angry lady was saying get out you leave, she would not listen to me, possibly a language issue but there was no mistaking the angry face. Maybe she should concentrate on the mouldy bathroom, unfilled soap containers and missing towels before she is rude to guests?

As a Technical Manager, I would like to share my experience staying at the Mercure Metz hotel during a recent business trip. The hotel not only impressed me with its cleanliness but also stood out for its exceptional service and incredible food options. The combination of these factors made it an excellent choice for my stay in Metz.

When I arrived it was pouring with rain, so I missed the hotel first time around, so according to my Garming I had to drive another 1,5 KM to get round to the hotel. Pleasant reception explained how to get to the parking garage with my motorbike. Room was ok, breakfast was a fast breakfast. Not to write home about. One thing did bother me , at the reception they gave me a streetmap of Metz, but the scale was so small I couldn't use it too well, ofcourse I went the long way round to the cathedral.

We went to Metz for 2 days and decided for the Mgallery Hotel. It was very well located next to a park in a historic environment. Definitely a very nice place. City center with a many restaurants, cafes and bars was just a 10 minute walk. Also the cathedral was just 15 minutes away. Staff was very friendly and rooms are nice and clean. Breakfast was very good with good choices.

Absolutely stunning hotel modern French design. Location even better. Superb stay with access to pretty much everything you want and desire. Our room was fabulous very good character and the pool very nice. Safe parking for our Motor Car with excellent members of staff to help you throughout. In the morning the breakfast service is again delicious and well supplied. The hotel is very ambient and offers selection and seclusion whilst dining. I really like this. Staff exceptional, very helpful and pleasant. Highly recommended especially for stop overs whilst travelling across a brilliant country.

I was a bit concerned about parking in a public car park for three days but in the event it was trouble free and easy. Hotel also offered a discounted payment which was explained clearly on arrival. Room was good. Pull down sofa for my son was comfortable and shower etc better than adequate. Staff were all friendly and helpful with enough English to help our stuttering French. Breakfast was good for price but on one of the two mornings the coffee machine broke down and caused a lot of issues in a very busy breakfast area. Position was superb, with easy access to Metz sites. Lots of restaurants nearby abd hotel bar was pleasant. Will definitely use again on future cross France journeys.

Pros: The receptionist were very friendly and speaks English. Breakfast buffet is included in the rate and were okay. The location is close to everything, walked everywhere. The room is on a smaller side, no fridge and was on the 4th floor. We were able to fit in an extra bed for my daughter. Parking fee were about 9 euros and no in and out privileges and a few blocks away from the hotel. Cons: The reception area were a bit hard to find. Reception is located on the left side from the main hotel entrance.

Let’s get the good points out of the way first. The reception staff were lovely and very helpful, the location is great for seeing Metz and it has free parking… I booked this hotel for one night without my usual diligence and research, I got what I deserved! After being directed to the local free parking and negotiating the tight entrance ramps I was less than comfortable with the surroundings. It seemed that the car park wasn’t very secure, litter strewn on level -1 and seemingly used as a toilet. This was reinforced by the stairs to ground level which required the holding of breath, it really was that bad. As above, the welcome from staff was great but on exiting the lift to our room on the first floor (106) there was an unpleasant odour. The room was a decent size, a bit sparse, very warm with one portable fan but the real issue was the carpet. Black stains that looked like ground in dirt or gum and other dubious looking stains in several other places. The bathroom was clean but the rail and attachment to hold the flexi shower head was missing from its mountings. The separate toilet was in a small cupboard just inside the door, again it was clean. The entrance lobby had what looked like long-standing cobwebs above head height, I’m guessing that the spiders are permanent guests. The bed was averagely comfortable and the linen clean. The wall paper appeared damp above the skirting boards and was discoloured. It isn’t the cheapest Metz option and really was presented poorly, there isn’t an excuse in a modern city for low standard accommodation like this.

La première chose dont les travaux rendant inaccessible l'accès à l'hôtel lors de ma venue, mais ça l'hôtel n'y est pour rien. Par contre, quand on appelle pour trouver un conseil pour se garer, la réponse à été ”cherchez dans le quartier”, merci du conseil, je n'y avait pas pensé. Dans les chambre, en tout cas la mienne, on sent bien un petit manque d'entretien, le plan de travail qui bouge, les plaintes dans la salle de bain... Le petit-dejeuner est, ordinaire, : café, viennoiseries, quelques fromages, œufs brouillés et jus de fruit industriels. Ha si, une petite chose, prenez soin de votre personnel de ménage et mettez une brossé dans les toilettes, cela rendra leur travail moins ”desagreable” à cet endroit.

Place advertised limited parking but there was none. No handicapped parking either. Nearest parking was a block away and 12 Euros for 3 hrs but free from 1900 to 0900. Reception team unaware of parking rates and restrictions. Small room was adequate, kitchenette but needed air conditioning. Our 6th floor room faced west and it was hot. Fan provided helped. All instructions were provided in German along with a pocket size map in French. Excellent location near most sights in easy walking and bike range. Breakfast at 8.50€ was very European. Quiet area in NW area of city center near everything. No lobby or restaurant in our facility. Restaurants required reservations but plenty of outdoor seating was available in the many pedestrian zones. Beer averaged 6.50€ for 1/2 liter and wine for a small glass started at 3.50€. Grocery stores and gas stations are well hidden. Overall parking expense was a major drawback. Find a hotel that has parking.
