The rooms are very loud due to the trains that start passing by at 5am, the windows are not isolated to the best standards. Unfortunately, during our stay the heating system broke down so there was no hot water in the shower. The cold water was ice cold. For a business trip this is an absolute nightmare.

This friendly hotel in a listed old building has an unbeatable location right next to the Wilhelmshöhe IC train station. The rooms are okay, but the good location comes with relatively loud traffic noise.

Getting there was a little problematic because we didn't know how to get to the designated parking garage on Sunday. A little note about the closure on Sunday and that you can get a card to open it at reception would have been useful. However, we were left in the dark when we unloaded our luggage.

If you wanted to shower you had to get into the bathtub with a very high edge.
