I travel internationally on a regular basis for work and have frequently found the local (non U.S. chain) hotels less than satisfactory to me. I am a picky traveler anymore! I thought that I would stay in the Dorint one night and probably want to move to Munich but I ended up loving the room, service and proximity to my client.
I would recommend the following advice to others who consider staying here:
• Upgrade to the business room. Plenty of room, with a nice big desk.
• If you don't mind walking get breakfast at one of the local bakeries...walk out to the main busy street and go left or right and you will find one in 10 minutes. Otherwise you will pay 17 Euro for breakfast. I can't eat 17 euro worth of breakfast!
• Also, dinner is pricey. Walk to the main street and then make a left and walk 15 minutes to the town center, lots of better restaurants that will cost you 25% of what you would pay at the hotel.
• If you don't want to deal with the AutoBahn email the hotel ahead of time and for 50 euro (cash) they will have a driver pick you up and deliver you to the hotel. (There is an ATM on the right side as you leave customs).
• Let them know if you are coming in early. I came in at 10am, and my colleague a little earlier, they had clean rooms waiting for us at no extra charge.
• Only thing I didn't like was that they had no take out coffee...fortunately I had my thermal cup that went to the airport with me and they filled it for me ;)
