Frankfurt / Accommodation / Classic


 

The former residence of the Prince of Hesse is one of the last remaining privately owned hotels of any size in the city. Its slightly moribund façade conceals a pleasingly atmospheric belle epoque interior furnished with art and antiques. While some of the older rooms are acquiring the patina of age, they are larger than those in the modern section so may be preferable. The rooms and suites are individually and elegantly furnished, but also provide a modern workspace with everything you need for your offi ce away from home. Instead of a buffet, breakfast is served to you at your table.

 

The 300-room Le Méridien Parkhotel Frankfurt is located at the idyllic Wiesenhuettenplatz, yet in the heart of the city, just 2 minutes walk from the main train station. The hotel offers a unique touch, given by the combination of Art-Nouveau-style rooms in the historical Palais, and Art & Tech rooms with Flat TV screens, modern lighting elements and high-speed internet access in the Business Wing. Excellent service, and local as well as international cuisine is offered in the Restaurant Le Parc. Lunchtime buffets and the award-winning Sunday Brunch round up the great variety of specialties. The nostalgic Casablanca bar pays tribute to the cinematic classic with live piano music and is a good last port of call. The 24-hour business centre provides computers, printers and high-speed internet access. Wireless LAN Area in Lobby, Bar and Restaurant. Relaxation can be found in the Fitness & Wellness Area “White-Stone-Lounge”, which impresses with a great view over Frankfurt’s skyline.

 

This is one of Frankfurt’s most characterful hotels. It’s a family-run concern in a tastefully furnished late 19th-century building located opposite the tranquil Palmengarten in the banking sector. The character of this beautiful building, with its 1890s façade, is refl ected in the individual rooms, each stylishly and uniquely decorated to depict different architectural periods and fully equipped to cater for all the technological facilities demanded by the modern guest. The rooms situated to the rear of the building offer privacy and tranquillity and some have balconies. Those in the front have lovely views of the Chestnut tree-lined Bockenheimer Landstrasse.

 

Sandwiched between runways and the autobahn, this gargantuan building with 600 staff claims to be the biggest hotel in Europe and contains everything from pubs and shops to haute cuisine dining. With its bold modern design this giant of a hotel is more than an airport stopover; it has everything you need on site plus excellent transport links to the city centre. If you are just dropping in for a meeting or have an extended stopover, some rooms can be taken by the hour. The guestrooms have muted contemporary decor. Full facilities for business customers include secretarial services and conference rooms.

 

This is the grandest of Frankfurt’s grand hotels, occupying a palatial buliding from the days of the Second Reich. Although modern conveniences have been fitted throughout, the historical splendour of the building is carefully aintained. Elegant rooms are furnished in various styles and provide all the comfort and facilities a business traveller needs. Culinary options feature a Japanese restaurant and sushi bar; Francais, which ranks among the best restaurants in the country; and Oscar’s, which serves traditional German fare at more reasonable prices. The Skyline Wellness Club is the perfect place to relax after a hard day.
