Nice hotel. Not your typical conference hotel. Lots of personality and a bit fun decor. |Room was nice - but no refrigerator in the room which was a shame as it was warm when we visited. …

Shower in the dark - recommend adding light strips to the shower room because it was very dark when showering.Good water pressure.Air condition worked properly. The most important factor for us.Funky herb smell for shampoo and shower gelRoom is spacious for Europe.Ok infrastructure for a short stay.Service - One good staff encounter at check in. Other staff interactions needed training - very clueless and unhelpful. The hotel emailed us notifying the restaurant/kitchen will be renovating but also did not provide alternatives or points for inconveniences caused. Had to email them for my folio as it was not sent as promised. They responded immediately but did not acknowledge the rest of my email regarding lack of staff training.

Wonderful check in experience.We arrived at this hotel after being stranded in the Frankfurt airport. We arrived past midnight. The Check-in person named Samir was absolutely delightful. Though the kitchen was closed he went and found a plate of fresh fruits for us. He also found us some toothbrushes since we did not have our luggage with us. He was absolutely wonderful in putting us at ease after two long days of interrupted travel.The room was super clean as well.

Definitely not a bad hotel, most of the facilities are decent but, there are no real chairs in the room. the rooms are very small and there is no desk unless you are paying extra and the desk you are getting is without a chair. there is no minibar or refrigerator. Service is very bad, except of one receptionist all the other receptionist was between not friendly up to hostile. I've tried to print my boarding ticket in reception the young girl just didn't have any technical skills, after 15 minutes I've just left. I paid €10 for a upgraded room which wasn't upgraded. I've left wondering earlier since I really didn't like the place.

awesome place to lay your hat, was there for 4 days during the euros and couldnt have asked for more, clean rooms with everything we needed, food was absolutely amazing, location is about 15 minutes walk from the city center (not a problem for our group) plenty of places nearby if you wanted to just nip out for a little walk and a coffee, but by far the best part was the staff, could not have wished for a more welcoming and friendly group of people, i feel safe in speaking for every Scottish person that stayed there by saying thank you for making us feel at home. You made a great trip even better. 1000% would recommend

This hotel was really nice, lovely rooms and lots of great staff, ideal spot for anyone wanting to see city of Frankfurt. Unfortunately the rooftop bar was not open as much as we’d hoped( 1 out of 5 days open).other than that I definitely enjoyed my stay here and would recommend it to everyone.

Nice hotel centrally located in Frankfurt. Close to a big mall and in walking distance to a lot of things (30 min walk-ish to get to nice shops, walking street etc). Nice rooftop, but it was closed all the times we were there, both in the morning, mid day and evenings (Friday evening as well). Be aware there is no gym here. Not impressed however with breakfast, and food only served from around 1700. But would stay here again, felt safe around here as well.

8 mins to station, 30 mins to old town, 15 mins to River; few mins to your room like home; but…parking is bit far, elevators are slow, floor is little thin that you might hear people walk above the roof. Down stairs is a restaurant & bar, which I love it most. This is a good place to hang out in the evening before taking a flight of next day

Fun, quirky hotel! GEKKO house combines gangsta rap music (all unedited versions), with delicious BBQ place in lobby, and smaller contemporary rooms (micro closest, ironing board on request). I would return here because it is a Bonvoy hotel and walking distance to convention center. Plus, Felix the BBQ Manager was really engaging and led a fun atmosphere with employees.However, I would not recommend this hotel it to someone that is easily offended by naughty words or those with multiple people in a room and/or bringing lots of stuff. This is the definition of an edgy city hotel. But I would

Don't book a room here. Every potential good thing about this hotel is neutralized by the most unengaged and unhelpful staff. Nobody was available for check-in, nobody to serve at the bar, nobody to help with questions when problems were addressed. When asked for support, staff disappeared to get another colleague and never came back, while several other staff members were just standing around with no work at hand.
