I stayed at the Townhouse hotel in Frankfurt for one night this week for leisure. I booked it though a German booking site which gave the hotel good ratings, thus googling I found the tripadviser review and then booked it.
Although the neighbourhood is not great it is not that bad, I expected it to be a lot noisier but it was not at all even though I stayed on the first floor at the front. Staff is very friendly hospitable and service minded. Interior design is nicely done, a lounge area and bar plus a seperate breakfast room in light and bright colors. Rooms are a bit small, but space is used very economical. Also bathroom is petite but all facilities are available and again great design. I had a queen size bed, which slept comfortable, tv, radio and mini bar (reasonably priced) small safe available. Closet space is good, seperate coat hanger (why do hotels not offer this as a standard?).Nice breakfast (buffet) lots of choice and freshly made.
Room rate; I payed € 70 incl tax & breakfast which is good money for good value. I definetly recommend this accommodation. However if you are staying there for more then 2 nights with 2 people you might want to choose for a bigger room.

I visited Frankfurt at the end of May for the Messe, first stay at the Townhouse, that I chose at the last minute, getting a very good deal on .laterooms..

The Hotel is clean, cheap, ideally situated, a few minutes walk from main train station and a few seconds from tram. Well .. the area around the station is not one of the safest with the large number of strip clubs and a few characters hanging around, but it’s usually like that in any major city, and I felt quite safe walking alone although I never came back too late at night.

The hotel itself was very, very quiet - I loved the decor of the interior, with dark woods and spotlights. I must say I had no problems with the bed or with outside noise, although the view was looking onto the back of the building.

The room was nice and clean, a little small (like in most of all new city hotels) but comfortable.

Breakfast was included in the price of the room and it consisted of a buffet of cheeses, jams, breads, eggs, fruit, juices and coffee or tea.

Staff was nice and helpful.

Would stay there again!
