Chambres d'Hotes Les Hirondelles — Hotel in Forbach-Boulay-Moselle

I booked Les Hirondelles when attending a wedding in nearby Forbach. The location is extremely convenient, right off of the autoroute. The home is comfortable and charming, each room has a lot of character and makes you feel "right at home." The stars of this lodging are the owners Philippe and Christiane- welcoming, warm, flexible, interested. I literally felt that I was staying with my favorite relatives. Although breakfast is the only meal on offer (and it is really nice), Christiane offered to make me a choucroute garnie for 20 people. I was hoping to share the local cuisine with the wedding couple and their family on the night after the wedding- Yazidis from Iraq who recently moved to Forbach to be closer to their family members in Germany. I tried to refuse, too much work, etc... but she insisted and it was amazing. I am a chef and asked for chopping board and peeler to make the salad as all of this was going to the wedding family's home as a picnic, Christiane immediately offered to use her professional machine to cut the cucumbers and whipped up a great vinaigrette.

We arrived not knowing what to expect, and was pleasantly surprised.||The owner showed us into a large farmhouse kitchen ( breakfast area) and then took us to our room, it had lots of old furniture and features, beams, stone walls etc and was huge!||The bathroom was also huge with a Jacuzzi bath and separate toilet .||The bed was large and cosey, nice white sheets and duvets,||The only disappointment was the towels they where small and very thin, and because we had a shower before we went out they where still wet the next morning, as the heated towel rail didn't work. The room was a little cold, as it was cold for the time of the year.||The breakfast was good Plum tart, Chocolate Pastrys, cheese, fresh bread, and the homemade apple juice was lovely- pity none for sale to take home, plus homemade jams and local honey||The owner was very helpful recommending a pizza restaurant, down the hill and left at the church called Mistral- it was the best Pizza we have ever had, and we were on our way back from 2 weeks in Italy, plus unbelievably cheap, 25 Euros including drinks ||Overall a very good experience and if where in that area again, we would return both to the hotel and...

We stayed over on Saturday night on our way to Italy following a recommendation from a friend. The welcome was very friendly and the hotel was easy to find and only a few minutes from the motorway. |The room we had slept four comfortably with a huge bathroom and it was all very clean. |There is a good pizza place up the road but this was unfortunately closed so we headed to Forbach for dinner. Loads of places to choose from. |We all had a great nights sleep and we were ready for breakfast. |One of the best breakfasts we've had...fresh breads, homemade cakes, jams and juices and very plentiful. |We will definitely be back and can...
