Hôtel Mercure Strasbourg Centre Gare

Good location with few mins walk from station and not far from Carrefour express with variety of wines.

Hotel is located just across the train stations. Lots of shops and eateries within a short walk. Room is clean and spacious.

We enjoyed an upgrade to a privilege room due to our Accor status. We could see the steeple of the Notre Dame Strasbourg from our room. The bathroom was small compared to the room size but that may be due to the fact that the room is in the roof space. The windows are dormer windows and the ceiling is very sloped where it follows the roof line. The bed was comfortable and we had 2 peaceful nights out of 3. On the Saturday night we had to call reception due to 2 rooms of inconsiderate guests yahooing in the hall at 1.00am. Signs need to mounted in the halls reminding people that silence is required when outside the bedrooms.

An overnight stay on the way to the Swiss Alps found us in this hotel. It had been a hot day and the airconditioning could not cope with the temperature in the evening. The room was clean, but 'old'. Breakfast was basic, but enjoyable. Very convenient being opposite the Strasbourg railway station.

The hotel is very handy indeed if you're arriving in Strasbourg by train. It's literally right opposite the train station. It's within easy walking distance (10 minutes or so) of the main town centre. I stayed here twice in quick succession to break a London-Prague return train journey, and was very happy with it. The staff were professional and helpful, breakfast was good (with fewer cooked items than Brits will be used to, but plenty of choice from the cold buffet and one or two hot items), and there was nothing wrong with my room. I think I was probably upgraded to a superior room on my first stay, as my room was considerably smaller the second time round. It's probably worth paying the extra for a superior room if you're planning on spending much time in the room.
