8.4/10 Very good! (597 reviews)
We arrived 40 mins after our check in time and was told that our rooms would not be ready for another 30 mins. We were then informed that the restaurant or the bar was not open as everything was shut on a Sunday. I think this should be clear on the website as we travelled from Europe expecting to be able to get some food on arrival after an early start that morning. There was no local restaurants open as apparently nothing opens on a Sunday in Weinheim which is why you would think that the hotel would open the restaurant to cater for their guests. We ended up ordering take away pizza and sitting outside in the garden as it was a nice evening. Thankfully the weather was nice enough to do this as the only other option would have been getting a taxi to the local town which was 30 mins away.

8.2/10 Very good! (200 reviews)
I was very happy to find this boutique hotel within shouting distance of the Messe. For many years I stayed at the Marriott but wanted a change. It is a charming, quiet and comfortable hotel. The staff are particularly good natured and helpful. I hope no one reads this review so the rates don’t go up too much for next year. Be aware though it’s not fancy or upscale so if that is what you are after it may not be the right fit for you.
