In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

5 reasons to book
  • Riverside setting with skyline views — Guests repeatedly mention the hotel's position on the Main river and the superb views of the Frankfurt skyline from rooms and common areas.
  • Exceptional staff and service — From the front desk to the concierge, reviewers praise the team for being helpful, well-trained, and customer-focused, with specific mentions of going above and beyond.
  • Central, walkable location — The hotel is a short walk from the main train station, the river, the Städel museum, and countless restaurants, making it easy to explore Frankfurt on foot.
  • Spacious, well-appointed rooms — Guests describe rooms as generously sized with comfortable beds, large desks, and big bathrooms – well-suited for both work and relaxation.
  • Extensive breakfast and club lounge — Breakfast is singled out as a highlight, with a wide variety of fresh options, and club-level rooms offer lounge access with additional food throughout the day.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Large, busy property — With 467 rooms, the hotel can feel big and impersonal compared to smaller boutique options in the city.
  • No air conditioning in all rooms — Standard rooms list air conditioning among amenities, but other room types don't explicitly include it – if you're sensitive to heat, check your room category.
  • Parking costs extra — On-site parking and valet are available, but at a 5-star hotel in central Frankfurt you can expect nightly fees that add to the total.
  • Check-in window ends at midnight — If you're arriving late, the official check-in window closes at 23:59. The 24-hour reception can likely assist, but confirm ahead for very late arrivals.
