description

brief description: 

the Hôtel de la Cathédrale was built in 1627. It is situated in the very heart of Metz and, as the hotel´s name implies, in the immediate neighbourhood of the cathedral. Some of the rooms on the top floors offer an unobstructed view over the roof of the cathedral and the city´s historic buildings respectively. Noteworthy is also the hotel´s quaint little inner courtyard with an antique staircase, typical for the era of its origin
