I had a positive experience at Alexander am Zoo and can recommend this place to other travelers. The rooms were clean and quiet, providing a very comfortable atmosphere for rest and relaxation. The staff was friendly and accommodating, which really made the stay goodl.Although the hotel is located a bit away from the city center, it was manageable thanks to excellent public transport right outside the hotel. This made it easy to get around the city without any hassle.I ended up here after a terrible experience at Hotel Plaza, where I had to deal with bed bugs and awful rooms. Hotel Alexander am Zoo was a welcome contrast and truly saved my stay in the city.

We arrived on the 8th of May and it was really hot. The AC didn't work and we asked about it. We got following answer from the guy in the reception: Who the hell needs AC. He even laughed at us. …

A quaint hotel near the Frankfurt Zoo. Rooms are adequate for our use during the Ambiente Fair. Beds are comfortable & decent. Bathroom is a good size compared to others that make you feel claustrophobic. Water pressure & temperature is good. Staff are wonderful. Well stocked breakfast with plenty of variety to choose from and their coffeemaker doesn’t disappoint. A 10 minute walk to the trains that run thru the downtown core.

Nice and cozy hotel. Comfortable and feel welcomed by staff. Very nice location. Housekeeping can put a little bit more effort into the cleaning of the room. Breakfast is pleasant. In general, I would visit again.

Extremely nice staff. Rooms were spacious and clean. Location was good and was less than a half hour walk to most anywhere. The breakfast was DELICIOUS. BEST I had in any Europe hotel. And I LOVE the Haribo gummy treats at the front desk. Recommendation Score: 97 out of 100.

For the reasonable price tag paid, from the room’s size to the huge bed, the rainforest shower option and the lovely garden view in a middle class neighborhood, i do not have any criticisms. …
