Le Merceny is a unique and unusual motel to say the least. I say that in a positive way. It is located in Bastogne and is on top of a large convenience store/gas station in town. I stayed here for one night while visiting Bastogne and have nothing but good things to say about it. It consists of 8 rooms on top of the store. The motel lobby is located connected to the store. The room floor can only be accessed thru the lobby or by a special door on the side of the building only accessible by the guests room key. My room had a foyer entrance, a large bathroom with an American size walk in shower (that means it was large) and then a large bedroom. The room windows face the rear of the building and my room was very quiet. The room was comfortable and the air conditioner worked well. Parking was in front of the building with cameras monitoring the car spaces 24/7. Besides, I don't think there is that much crime in Bastogne. The store below is very well maintained and is like a small grocery store including a bakery/restaurant that serves food. I remember seeing an employee using a machine to wash the floor. The store is convenient because if you need anything you can just walk downstairs to get it as long as it is before 10 pm because that is when they close for the evening, You can walk to Place McAuliffe in about 5 minutes so Le Merceny is in a good location. When I checked in the female manager showed me my room to make sure it was satisfactory to me. Excellent customer service. If I returned to Bastogne, this is where I would want to stay. read more

It's a motel, according to its name, but this spot is better than any other motel I've ever stayed at. Le Merceny is easy to find. It's on one end of very few roundabouts in Bastogne, above a gas station. The gas station market is basically a mini grocery store and has more than what you'd expect inside of a gas station, such as produce, fresh baked goodies, and more. It was the perfect spot to spend the night before our full day WWII tour the next day! We were well-rested, and breakfast gave enough energy to last us until lunch. read more

We absolutely loved this hotel! Yes, it is above a gas station. Don't let that sway you! This place is clean and modern. It's centrally located and has a/c and free wifi. Skip the minibar and go downstairs to the convenience store for anything you might need to drink or nibble on. There is a breakfast available for a very reasonable rate (8 euros pp), which offered a balanced meal to start your day. Yes, you eat it in the store but who cares! We would stay there again, no question! read more
