Beautiful modern hotel in the heart of Frankfurt. The hotel has large windows with magnificent views. The rooms are truly prestronne and well equipped, but large windows in the hotels are unfortunately rare. Unfortunately the big downside of this hotel is paid online, and 22 euros per 24 hours is very high. Great location and friendly staff, but that standard in five star hotels.

The gym located at the hotel is top quality. Uniquely, there is a lap pool (25m) which is the only one I have seen in Germany (or Europe) and a strong attraction for swimmers. The breakfast buffet is expensive but extensive and good quality. The location is within 10-15 minute walking distance of the main pedestrian zone, the train station, and many buildings in the financial district.

Very well appointed hotel in terms of location and decor, but the service was very much lacking. I'm not talking about anything over the top, I'm referring to approaching the front of the hotel with two suitcases and struggling to open door. On another occasion, waiting for someone to help hail a taxi. Wifi was 20.00 EUR per day. Also be very careful with breakfast.....upon arriving at the restaurant for breakfast, one is asked to sign a piece of paper without explanation........it turns out that what you're signing for is prepayment for the fabulous breakfast buffet - 30 EUR. In this midst of disfunction, there is a very helpful staff member on the front desk - Johanns.

Paid 260EUR a night for a king size bed without breakfast (30EUR extra), without a complimentory bottle of mineral water on the room and - most annoying - without free internet/WIFI.

Out of principle, I deduct 2 stars for so called business hotels which have the impertinence to charge extra for commodities like internet access.

The rooms itself and the Hotel is quite nice apart from that but nothing special.
