“Does the job, just.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 February 2012

Stayed at the hotel for 2 nights on a trip to the Paperworld trade show. It was an average hotel, staff ok if a little abrupt at times, but softened during our stay. Breakfast was adequate.
Rooms were clean, if a little cold, as they turn the radiators off when they come in to clean the room.
Good walking distance from Messe, and nice Italian around the corner.
Only negative is that you have to pay up front, not on departure. WiFi is not free and can be a bit sketchy.
Ok for the price when a trade show is on.

“Worst experience- ripped off unfairly and very rude”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 June 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Arrived at the hotel early around 11am after my flight, however room not ready and just left my luggage. I could only check in around 11pm same evening .The hotel looks very amatuer, just an adaption of an old house with rooms divided. Was very cold in the room and did not seem clean .I went back to reception and ask for cancellation .They just said "they work parttime and they ll call me next day " .I took my luggage and left.
Despite my calls and emails no one replied. As a consequence, our company complained to hotels.com too , but no result and we have been charged 450Euro for NOT staying at the hotel .I called personally and had the most impolite and rude discussion with hotel management- that just told me" there is nothing he can do ". He will not send an emails to hotels.com confirming that I left the hotel the first night !.

“Good Breakfest, Bad nights”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 November 2010

All that has been said about this Hotel is right. However
it should be noticed that during nights there is roar of couples making love. Many of them reserved rooms only for that purpose. It looks familiar with the brothel

“Great little hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 December 2009

person found this review helpful

We stayed at the Sophien back in March of 09 for 3 days and were greeted warmly by Christian at the front desk who took care of all of our needs.
The rooms are clean comfortable and quite functional. The rates are very reasonable. The breakfast is excellent and we plan to stay there again on our next visit to Frankfurt perhaps in 2010.

“Not bad, clean and great breakfast!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 November 2009

The hotel is well located, not far from the Tradefair place (about 15 minutes walk). About 30 minutes walk to the centre. Thee is a parking available for a fee or free of charge around the corner. The breakfast was great. The only MINUS was non-functional heating in the bathroom. DON'T FORGET TO ASK FOR A NON-SMOKING ROOM! They did put us in a smoking one but all was quickly solved and we were moved into the non/smoking one. The hotel was really clean!
