Cit'Hotel Du Tigre Verdun-sur-Meuse

Review by hotel critic

I recently had the pleasure of staying at a charming small hotel that perfectly catered to my culinary interests while providing a comfortable retreat at a budget-friendly price. Upon arrival, the check-in process was straightforward, and I appreciated the secure undercover area for my motorbike—an essential detail for any traveler on two wheels. The highlight of my experience was dining at Le Brasero, the hotel's partner restaurant. Its ambiance struck a lovely balance between rustic and refined, evoking the spirit of the Mediterranean. I was particularly impressed by their innovative approach to local ingredients, presenting classic dishes with a contemporary twist. One evening, I discovered a beautifully crafted stew that transported me back to childhood memories of my grandmother’s cooking. Breakfast, included in my stay, was simple yet adequate, featuring fresh bread, croissants, and local cheeses. It reminded me of the markets back home in Shanghai, where the quality of ingredients speaks volumes. This hotel may be basic in its amenities, but it serves as a wonderful base for exploring nearby historical sites, especially for those like me who appreciate destinations steeped in history and delicious cuisine. I would certainly consider returning for another culinary getaway.
