Esslingen Christmas Market

The hotel is good, but the area is a industrial, however it is convenient to the highway

Good hotel, excellent breakfast

Our stay at Maison Messmer Spa Hotel was fabulous! Everyone who works there was wonderful to us. They were very friendly, fun to talk to and even willing to help us with our terrible German. The location is excellent. Only a five minute walk to the center of town. Lots of shops, restaurants and a beautiful path along the canal are only a few steps away. We walked over to the famous Friedrichsbad spa in about 10 minutes. Absolutely a must do if you are in Baden Baden. The spa at Maison Messmer was also very well appointed with high quality facilities. They have a steam-room, sauna, massage rooms, quiet rooms for resting and a swimming pool. There is also a section of the pool where they have the most powerful bubble maker we’ve ever seen. We were a little embarrassed because we were like a couple of kids playing around in the volcano of air. You definitely have to try that if you stay there. The beds were very comfortable. Everything was first rate. The only issue we had was we were not able to book breakfast included through Expedia. They have a really nice breakfast buffet for 32 euros that we highly recommend. Most of the other guests were able to include breakfast with their room but apparently Expedia doesn’t support it. When we go back to Baden Baden we are definitely staying at the Maison Messmer Spa Hotel.
