Staying at Waldhotel Stuttgart was an unforgettable experience. The moment I walked in, I felt a sense of calm and warmth that made the whole trip special. Located just minutes from the city center, it's super convenient for exploring Stuttgart while still enjoying a peaceful retreat. The rooms are spotless, cozy, and incredibly comfortable—my best night's sleep in months! The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. Breakfast was fantastic: fresh local ingredients, delicious options, and great variety. It’s rare to find such a perfect balance of comfort, quality, and value. If you're visiting Stuttgart, this is hands down my top recommendation. I’ll definitely be back.
From booking to checkout, everything was perfect. The staff went above and beyond—when we arrived early, they still managed to get our room ready so we could rest right away. The room was immaculate, with a fresh fruit platter and a little chocolate waiting on the bed—such a sweet touch. We had lunch downstairs at the hotel restaurant and just ordered soup and dessert, but the soup was honestly one of the best I’ve had during my entire trip. The location is great too—right next to a grocery store and a few takeout spots, so grabbing snacks or last-minute essentials was super easy. Breakfast was delicious and well-balanced, with fresh ingredients and good variety. Overall, this hotel truly delivers on every level—the service, the ambiance, the food, and the attention to detail. A 10/10 experience from start to finish.
Staying at Hotel Restaurant Krehl's Linde was an absolute delight. The location is perfect—just a short ride on the U1 subway line to downtown Stuttgart, making it super easy to explore the city without needing a car. The hotel itself feels like a cozy, well-cared-for gem: small but thoughtfully designed, spotless, and warmly welcoming. The owner is cheerful and genuinely helpful, adding a personal touch that makes you feel right at home. Rooms 12 and 14 are spacious and beautifully furnished, with elegant canopy beds that give a romantic, old-world charm. Breakfast is hearty and varied—exactly what you’d want to start the day right. Everything about this place feels authentic and well-maintained. If you're looking for a quiet, charming retreat in a great location with excellent service and comfort, this is definitely the place to stay. Highly recommended!
This place has such a warm, personal charm that feels more like staying at a friend's home than a hotel. The breakfast was abundant and delicious—my kids loved it and felt right at home. The location is fantastic: just a short walk to the city center, the Vasen, and the Mercedes Museum. Everything is so convenient and well-connected. I highly recommend this gem for anyone visiting Stuttgart. It’s not just great value—it’s unforgettable.
I visited Stuttgart for a concert and stayed at this hotel — it was the perfect choice. Located just a 5-minute walk from the venue, I didn’t have to worry about driving or finding parking on event day, which made everything so much smoother. The area around the hotel is really charming too — there are plenty of cozy local eateries and fast food spots within walking distance, so dinner options were never an issue. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-located for exploring the city center. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Stuttgart, especially if you’re attending a show or event. Great value, great location, and a stress-free stay overall.
I stayed at Hotel Krone Bad Cannstatt and must say the experience was extremely disappointing. While the contactless entry via keybox worked smoothly, and power outlets and hot water in the bathroom were functional, almost every other aspect of the room fell far short of expectations. The overall condition was poorly maintained, with countless small and large issues—some so minor they felt absurd, like a trash can in the bathroom whose foot pedal didn’t work. The room’s ceiling has a steep slope in the middle, making it impossible to stand upright in the bathroom, yet the advertised square footage doesn’t account for this, which is misleading. Wi-Fi was weak and unreliable—frequent interruptions made video meetings nearly impossible. The TV was tiny and completely non-functional. The built-in cabinet in the bathroom had such low shelf height that even hanging a shirt was impossible; the shelves were broken, and loose parts were scattered inside. The light above the mirror was partially detached—an unsafe situation near a sink—and didn’t work at all. Towel rack was crooked and wobbly, faucets were heavily calcified (though still working), both soap dispensers were broken, and the showerhead had a faulty seal, causing water to spray everywhere instead of just through the shower head. Only one of two window blinds remained, and it couldn’t be secured—so it kept banging against the frame in the wind. The staircase was steep and narrow, extremely difficult to navigate with luggage, and the stairwell smelled musty and looked dirty. The desk was so small you couldn’t even sit properly in front of it—the chair creaked loudly, its back legs were loose, and it felt like it would collapse any second. All switches and controls were grimy, many wobbled or were loose. Windows needed to stay open constantly due to poor ventilation, but the location is noisy—traffic, construction nearby, and loud bar activity in the evenings made it impossible to relax. The bed was uncomfortable: the headboard looked grimy, the mattress was sagging with springs clearly poking through, and the pillows were thin and worn out. Service was particularly frustrating—multiple calls to the provided number failed (tried four times throughout the day); once I got voicemail, but no callback. Communication was limited to email or the booking app. After the first night, I requested to cancel the next two nights and get a refund, but my request was denied. Every issue I observed was documented with photos. Overall, the hotel lacks basic upkeep, offers poor value, and fails on multiple levels. Not recommended.
I’ve stayed at countless youth hostels, but this one truly stands out. The location is fantastic—just a short walk from the city center and easily accessible by public transit. What makes it special is the warm, welcoming atmosphere; you instantly feel at home among travelers from all over the world. It’s lively yet cozy, with a real sense of community. I struck up conversations with guests from different countries and even met families who were staying here—they all raved about the experience too. The dorm rooms are clean, comfortable, and well-maintained for a hostel, and the beds are surprisingly restful. Some noise is expected in a shared space, but nothing that disrupts sleep. Breakfast is excellent—fresh bread, fruit, local pastries, and juice options. Dinner offers good variety, though the sauces were slightly on the salty side, which is minor. There’s a great games area with billiards and board games, plus a bar serving perfectly balanced cocktails—no over-sweetness or harsh alcohol burn. Families love it here, and so do solo travelers. It feels like a true international family. If you’re looking for an authentic, friendly, and affordable stay in Stuttgart, this is the place.
Stayed at Hotel Alpha in Stuttgart and was thoroughly impressed! Everything about the hotel was top-notch—from the central location just steps from the subway to the clean, modern rooms. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our visit. What really stood out was the free parking—such a great bonus for travelers driving in. It made our trip stress-free and added incredible value. The overall experience was flawless, and I’d highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Stuttgart. Will definitely be back!
This stay was an absolute disaster from start to finish. Right upon arrival, I noticed rats outside the building—definitely not the kind of welcome you expect in a modern German city. The front desk was unresponsive, and my key card wouldn’t work at all. After waiting for help with no reply, I was told to find a spare key in the housekeeping room—except it was completely unmanned and inaccessible. Once inside the room, the atmosphere was bleak and depressing. I undressed and lay down to watch something on my tablet when I spotted movement on the bed. I jumped up immediately and found ten bed bugs crawling around—two had already bitten me. This isn’t just a bad hotel—it’s a health hazard. The condition is unacceptable for Stuttgart, let alone Germany. Never staying here again. It should be shut down immediately.
If there’s a better hotel in Stuttgart, I’d love to see it—this place truly stands out. Located just a 10-minute walk from the Stuttgart Arena across the Neckar River and only 10 minutes by tram into the city center, it’s perfectly positioned for both convenience and charm. The area around the hotel is packed with great restaurants and cafes—especially worth mentioning Cannsatter Kurve, a local favorite run by a fantastic Bosnian owner that captures the spirit of the Stuttgart FC ultras’ neighborhood. And don’t miss the beer garden at the nearby Pig Museum—it’s real, and the draft beer and menu are excellent. But what really makes this stay unforgettable is the warm, family-run hospitality. The staff, including owner Vanessa and her parents, go above and beyond with genuine kindness and professionalism. Our room was quiet, located at the back with a lovely balcony, air conditioning that worked flawlessly, and a spacious bathroom with a shower and fridge. The mini-bar is reasonably priced if you want to grab something quick. There’s also a lift, which is a nice touch. Breakfast was outstanding—plenty of hot and cold options, and they even accommodated our gluten-intolerant guest every morning with fresh gluten-free bread, cereal, and milk. Plus, Vanessa helped us buy three-day public transit passes, making getting around stress-free and safe. And right outside? The red tourist bus stops just around the corner. This isn’t just a good hotel—it’s exceptional. I can’t recommend it enough.
I recently stayed at Hotel am Friedensplatz in Stuttgart and couldn't be happier with my experience. The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful from the moment I arrived. The hotel is perfectly located just steps away from the underground station, making it super easy to explore the city without relying on taxis or buses. My room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, offering great value for the price. It’s a fantastic base whether you're here for business or leisure. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Stuttgart—friendly, convenient, and genuinely worth every penny.
Staying at Hostel Alex 30 in Stuttgart was an absolute highlight of my trip! The location is unbeatable—just a short walk from the city center, with cafes, grocery stores, and public transport right on the doorstep. The dorm room was clean, well-maintained, and surprisingly comfortable for the price—everything you’d expect from a budget-friendly hostel. What really stood out was the staff: super friendly and helpful. When I mentioned I didn’t have a power adapter, one of them immediately lent me one without hesitation. Plus, having access to a fully equipped kitchen made it easy to prepare meals on a budget—perfect for travelers who want to save money while enjoying fresh food. Overall, this place exceeded my expectations in every way. Great value, great vibe, and a welcoming atmosphere. I’ll definitely be back!
