special accomodation: an old abbey. Staff was friendly, room was fine. Town itself not to great

needing to overnight on a long drive, we chose this place, thanks to tripadvisor, and were stunned by the quality of accommodation for the price....the abbey is impressive to say the least, the gardens are superb, whilst our room was more spacious and better equipped than most rooms we've paid double for...
our only gripe was a broken showerstand, however that's a (very) minor point when compared to the plusses in the equation..

Abbaye very central and reasonable condition of room (some cobwebs on ceiling and carpet not spotless) with good bathroom and separate WC, although not brilliant VFM. Welcome OK but not friendly. Rooms are a sideline for the museum and are off the public areas which is a bit strange. Breakfast at 11 Euros very poor VFM.

We picked this hotel based on the description of the property as a converted Abbey. The hotel was very picturesque, and did not disappoint. The only problem is that Pont a Mousson is half way between Metz and Nancy, and we would have preferred staying in either city over this out of the way place. Unfortunately it rained every night during our drive back to the hotel from the city, which did not make for easy driving (thank god for the gps). If i was to return to the area, I would probably stay in Metz, which is an incredibly beautiful old city with a lively feel to it, the second largest cathedral in France, and a very architecturally diverse city center. Hotel Abbaye de Prmontres is very interesting, I'm glad for the chance to have stayed in an Abbey, and it is a nice quiet spot in the country, if that is what you're looking for. Breakfast was barely adequate, and parking was on street, across from the hotel. I would recommend if you have the time, and are looking for a diversion from the typical city hotel. We stayed in a converted insane asylum in Slego Ireland, so we enjoy traveling slightly off the mainstream.
