THE 'OUTLET HOTEL'…read more The cosy little Swabian market town of Metzingen , some 20 clicks to the south of Stuttgart, may be quite well-known in the U.K. (I'm not sure) and is certainly worth a visit. Apart from the usual scenic and culinary charms that such small towns in Southern Germany boast, it became well-known in and beyond Germany quite a few years back when local company Hugo Boss first opened their factory outlet there. Since then, outlet stores have bloomed for just about any designer brand you care to think of. Indeed, as far as I know it was one of the very first outlet cities in Europe (along the lines of Bicester Village in the U.K.). In the meantime, it literally attracts visitors from all over the world, including Russia, China and other countries. I have stayed at the Hotel Schwanen several times, both with my wife and once alone on business. This very friendly family-run hotel in the town centre by the church and minutes from the shopping centre offers very pleasant rooms, excellent bars, a fine and a reasonably-priced restaurant with quality local specialities and even a gift shop. I know from professional experience that the word 'sumptuous breakfast buffet' is somewhat overused by hotels in the German-language diaspora, but the Schwanen is certainly deserving of that epithet, with its diverse and stylish facilities. In fact, as you pass through to the breakfast room you will see photos of the serried ranks of the great and good who have stayed there (but remember that it is still very reasonably-priced). In fact, during my last visit, I had stayed the previous few nights at the Four Points Sheraton in Duesseldorf which cannot hold a candle to the Schwanen! Definitely the place to hang your hat when passing through! Early booking in the high season is probably not a bad idea to avoid missing out on the best hotel in Metzingen (as far as I know, 'high season' there runs from January to December). My photos are not representative of the luxurious double rooms, but I was very impressed with the imaginatively-designed and practical open-plan single room I had last time round: a sort of studio apartment. To see more, best check the pix on their website which you can read in an interesting variety of languages! http://www.schwanen-metzingen.de/de/00_home.php Related links:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metzingen http://www.outletcity-metzingen.com/en/welcome

Three or four local restaurants served good food at a fair price. One is directly across the street. Three are a few blocks away, so an easy walk. All very clean. The local brewery Hirsch creates a n award winning wheat beer that is extremely good. Hotel staff was friendly and helpful. English was OK, much better than my german. I had no issues communicating A free breakfast that was excellent! I loved the rye bread, lifes simple pleasures. It includes eggs prepared to order, multiple breads and croissants, a fruit bar, a yogurt bar, about a dozen types of meat ( i had bacon, salami and smoked trout), cereals hot and cold, coffee and tea. Rooms were good size for europe, everything worked well. Free TV and Internet access. Pool and sauna was awesome. (I visited in February) I will come back !

They have only Ziewfalter on tap but other options in bottle. Ordered the vegetarian knödel with in season pilzen (shrooms) which was tasty. It was a nice place to take a break from the flohmarkt. The menu options has something for everyone between chuck of beef to pasta or salads. Only 3 stars for value of the meal compared to the nearby places.
