I stayed at this hotel for five nights when I visited Karlsruhe for a summer school in September 2007. The location couldn't be better - it is right next to the main train station. The trams outside could be a problem for some but they did not bother me.
On arrival, I got a warm welcome by the friendly and very efficient staff. I was offered some water and juice and even asked if I had had an enjoyable journey.
The staff were very friendly and _always_ greeted me with a smile. The room was comfortable and amenities were more than adequate. When returning to the hotel in the evenings, the staff were careful to check the name of the guest on their computer system before handing the key over - a nice touch, carried out very discreetly and efficiently. The spread at breakfast was filling and yummy (their booklet in the rooms describes it as a 'rich international buffet').
I thouroughly enjoyed my stay, will definitely stay here again, if I can and highly recommend it!!
