"Very nice and newly renovated hotel in the heart of the city! The hotel staff was very friendly and had good suggestions on things to do around the city. Karlsruhe downtown is easy to explore and everything is walkable from the hotel. There is also a public transit station right in front of the hotel in case you want to go further. With the central location comes the only downside, it’s not ideal if you travel with a car as you can’t drive up to the front door of the hotel to unload and near by...

They are always super fast with any questions and concerns. I went to the wrong location, and they were very quick getting me where I needed to go. The location is fantastic. Grocery store with bakery right across the street, and many stores and great restaurants within easy walking distance. This is definitely my place to stay in Karlsruhe!!"
