This is our Budget pick for Metz. It has 2 stars and a guest score of 8.0 out of 10 from 3,115 reviews. Rail travellers, one- or two-night visitors and anyone who spends the day out and wants to keep costs down are the best fit.
Family rooms, free Wi-Fi and a 24-hour front desk are listed. Breakfast is a continental buffet.
Skip it if you are sensitive to bathroom condition or want more comfort. The bathroom complaints are specific and worth taking seriously. For about €42 more a night, our Best Value pick has a higher score.
Location and getting around
The address is 7 rue Lafayette. Guests rate the location 9.2 out of 10 and say the city centre, the cathedral, restaurants and the Pompidou centre are within walking distance.
Our straight-line estimates put Metz Cathedral at 1.2 km, about 15 minutes on foot. Germans' Gate is 1.3 km, about 16 minutes. Saint Quentin Church is 4.6 km, about 58 minutes, which is far: plan on public transport or a taxi for that one.
The hotel's name points to the station, but we have no measured distance to it. Check the route on a map. Parking is not listed in our data, so ask the hotel if you drive.
What guests say

Why it made our top 3
We compared 10 eligible properties in Metz. Bristol ranked tenth of ten on guest score, the lowest in the sample. It earned the Budget slot because, after reserving the upscale choice, it had the lowest eligible reference price.
Its 3,115 reviews and 9.2 location score show it delivers on position and price. Comfort is where it falls short.
Before you book
Room size, noise, renovation condition, whether breakfast is included and cancellation terms have not been assessed. Given the bathroom complaints, look at recent guest photos and ask whether any rooms have updated bathrooms.
Confirm parking if you drive, and check today's prices for all three of our Metz picks, since the gap between them is small.
