I was in this hotel during a business trip. I was really impressed in finding such a nice boutique design hotel very close to the frankfurt city center... The hotel is close to the river and you can have a nice walk of jogging from there. The hotel is pretty small but each room is very well designed. You make the breakfast in the wintergarden. Everything is quite special and the room rate is reasonable

Spent one night at this gem of a boutique hotel in Frankfurt on our way from Croatia back to the US. Part of the chain of Design Hotels chain* it was a sweet taste of germany and its reputation for innovative design and technology within the hospitality market. Apparently architects are challenged to create these unique individually-designed hotels all over the world. Each one has its own signature and flavor. A book in the room had photos of all of them. Here there were beautiful, comfortable rooms with lovely views of the river behind the hotel. High-tech/high-end options included in the design of the bathrooms and electronics in the rooms. A popular Beer Garden and separate restaurant (with outdoor patio!) are on the property in the midst of this park-like setting. Certainly did not feel like we were in a big city not far from the airport. Service was great. Food was delicious, ambiance delightful. Highly recommend.

[From Design Hotels website: ("a curated selection of more than 200 independent hotels in over 40 countries across the globe ... More than a collection of hotels, the company is a collection of stories. Each property reflects the ideas of a visionary hotelier, an "Original," someone with a passion for genuine hospitality and cultural authenticity, for thought-provoking design and groundbreaking architecture. All "Originals" stand for the individual, aesthetic and service-driven experiences that their hotels provide."]

Stayed here 3 nights and I have mixed feeling about the hotel.
The room was nice and modern, however i found many strange things, especially when it looks like a very business people oriented hotel, it was definitely not eg there is desk for your computer and wi-fi etc but there is no power point, so I had to connect my computer closer to the toilet's power point. There was no iron/iron board in the room. When I tried to call reception I tried several numbers and since there was no hotel guide finally I had to physically go to the reception... of course they reacted promptly.

I decided to have dinner in the room even though I found a menu, there was no information regarding whether it was room service or until what time it was served, then I tried to call once again it did not go thru and at the end I just gave up.

Bathroom was nice and spacious with a great big top shower head, body wash, soaps etc from L'Occitane, this brand have beautiful stuff but the shampoo at this hotel, smells of a really bad chemical liquid, nearly like cough medicine, really awful. All others products were amazing though.

Location wise, it is quiet however you need taxi to go anywhere since public transport is kind of far... unless of course you enjoy walking and have the time to do so. Unfortunately if you are here for business then you may have no choice but to grab taxis.

Overall a nice looking place but disorganised and not very user friendly. The staff was great! very helpful and approachable. The bar staff were also great and very professional, breakfast okay but nothing memorable, I think there was no much variety for breakfast.

I think it may be a nice place to go for drinks and dinner but to stay it is a bit inconvenient and pricey.

After a long overnight flight the staff at Hotel Gerbermuehle found, at 7am, an excellent vacant room in which we could collapse. The accommodation was spacious, a very high quality of fittings and furniture with a comfortable bed. The staff continued to remain friendly and helpful for our short stay. Dinner overlooking the river was nourishing and relaxing. The included breakfast was excellent and proved to be the best breakfast we had during the following 4 weeks of travel.
For some travellers the location which is a little out of town may be an issue. It was easily walkable largely through parkland along the river.
