Hotels Near Pfarrkirche St. Helena, Trier-Euren in Trier

We booked a komfort room. Was very clean and with simple modern furnishing. It was quiet and the air con worked well which is needed in the heat of August. Slightly annoying that it beeped and flashed when the hotel set timer switched it off automatically after a set period. We weren’t expecting this and it woke us up with a start in the middle of the night. Unfortunately the garage on site was not able to fit our high car as the hotel has limited parking with high head space. We found a parking nearby in a pay and display place, so not a huge problem. We didn’t eat breakfast in hotel which was probably a mistake as we found the local (nearby hotel) cafes to be not particularly appetising, maybe we just picked the wrong ones. However we did find a great restaurant in walking distance called La Kramerei. You need to book, at least in August. I can recommend the hotel.

Hotel was excellent. The public areas are bright and gleaming. There was a great selection of food at both breakfast and dinner buffet. The room was large and spotlessly clean. The highlight of our stay was one of the waiting staff whose surname is Rodriguez. She was a delight has a smile which brightened the dining room and truly looked after us during our five night stay. The hotel could not be better placed for access to the city centre shops and tourist attractions. Well done Mercure.

The apartment is in a great location, directly in the second row of a residential complex on the Moselle. The apartment is very nice, new and tastefully furnished. A very well-equipped kitchenette was available. Vinegar/oil, salt/pepper shakers were available. There is a bakery right next to the house entrance. We were travelling by bike and so the location of the apartment was perfect for exploring the wine region. Beds are comfortable, bathroom has a hairdryer, shampoo and soap were also available. Towels were also available. We felt very comfortable. The only small downside is that there was hair in the bathroom from previous guests and that a little more love should have been put into cleaning the apartment in general. It is unpleasant to come across other people's paper waste. The dust on the bathroom lamp was unfortunately impossible to miss. The cleaner should have noticed that.

The Holiday Inn Express in Trier is a newer hotel in a city without a lot of hotels. It's an easy walk (about 15 minutes) from the historic city center with most of the tourist attractions. If I had to guess I would say the hotel has been open for about a year. There is still a fresh paint smell. Some of the walls by the front desk are also missing paint as if construction or decorating isn't done yet. There's a lot to like about the hotel, including a full bar, fast and free wifi, a good TV, and huge walk-in showers. However, there are some big issues. The hotel advertises free parking. While parking is free, there are NOT enough spaces for all guests. I was told to park in a muddy, dirty field between the parking lot and main road. I had to make an illegal turn from the road, drive over the sidewalk and risk damage to my car and tires. Why was this hotel allowed to build a parking lot that did not have one space for every room? The breakfast is typical by German continental breakfast standards. However, Holiday Inn Express advertises a hot breakfast. There were no hot eggs or anything that adhered to the hot breakfast standard. There is no gym. I have never stayed at a Holiday Inn Express anywhere without a gym, even a small gym. Why does a newly built not have a gym? Guest rooms are very, very small with nothing but a closet, small table and shelve. I had a king-sized room. It would be very crowded if there were two people in the room. My room did not feature the usual Holiday Inn Express amenities. No lotion, no bar of soap, no shampoo, no conditioner and no body wash. Instead, there was one dispenser of Dove soap and one dispenser of Dove shampoo-conditioner. That's it. That is not consistent with my experience at Holiday Inn Express hotels everywhere else. Also, there was no clock, no refrigerator and no coffeemaker, despite coffeemakers being advertised. I did get a kettle with tea and instant coffee. My IHG Spire status recognition at check-in consisted of getting a voucher for a free drink. When I redeemed the voucher at the full bar I was told it didn't cover the cost of a glass of wine. What's the point of the voucher? The bar has several regional wines, but the bartender did not speak English beyond basic words. It was difficult to confirm what wines were dry. Staff were few and far between. On a Saturday night when the hotel seemed 100% sold-out, there was only one front desk employee and one bartender. When issue arose the front desk employee had to leave and go to guest rooms, forcing the bartender who didn't speak fluent English to work both the bar and the front desk. This resulted in wait times of 10 minutes for a drink. After a week of staying in local German hotels I was really looking forward to the consistent chain experience of a Holiday Inn Express. Next time I'm in Trier, I will book the Mercure instead.

The staff are great here - upon checkin the Manger helped contact Enterprise for our rental car pickup. This was so helpful. we chose the hotel to be close to the rental car. The hotel feels modern and room were a pretty good size. Only drawback is the hotel is far into town. We did walk it - took about 20 minutes one way. so good to get exercise, but a little far. but it is easy to navigate - down one street to Porta Nigra. The hotel was great for one night, but if you want to spend more time in old town Trier, this might be a bit far.

Nells Park has various types of rooms (as regards size and luxury) and my room was a beautiful middle mother. Not very big but fine. The bathroom was a little bit on the small side and the shower cabin can be renovated but it was also good. There are 2 sauna cabins and a steam cabin; good temperature and wellness is very clean. One point of the hotel is the location. It is at least half an hour walk to the centre of Trier. But that means you're sleeping quietly, and that's very nice!
