Walk in the park

Very ideal location to explore Darmstadt with a lovely park right out the back door. My room was a \"view\" room which overlooked the park but, unfortunately, this was also where truck deliveries were made and so enjoying the natural air through an open window also meant early morning noise. Despite this, I would chose this hotel again for my stay. Excellent! The airliner bus also stops right across the street for very easy transport from Frankfurt airport.

A real value. Hotel was clean, reasonably comfortable and convenient to everything you might want to do in Darmstadt (e.g., Wedding Tower and Mathildenhöhe; Makt Place, etc). Transportation is easily accessed. Staff can be a bit amateurish but they do not appear to have a large international clientele. All staff do speak English fluently. Room was good sized but curiously, with king size bed they provided 2 single size duvets.

Don't waste your money!

We checked in last week, air conditioning don't work worth a hoot, it was better to use the window, at least you can get a cooler breeze. We wake up early the next day to find out that we don't have any hot water and wouldnt not have it until 2300 hrs or later, we had to ask for a tea kettle to make enough warm water to wash up. Breakfast is WAY overpriced, you would be better off staying elsewhere. ALSO parking is a real pain here, they gave us a ticket to get in and out during our stay, HOWEVER it did not work and we have to contact a person EVERYTIME we left to let us out

A great hotel in a great location

We have just stayed at this hotel for the second time which probably says something in itself! The rooms are excellent - spacious, immaculately clean and very functional. The staff are friendly and helpful and the location - literally two minutes from the Schloss and not much more than five minutes from the main shopping area is perfect for a stay in Darmstadt. We don't tend to eat dinner in hotels because there are usually interesting restaurants to explore but we ate once in the 'Bistro Moller' and it was excellent.

Business Hotel between the Schloss and Herrngarten

Modern, relatively large hotel for business people visiting Darmstadt. The hotel is right in the center of town next to the Schloss (castle), the Darmstadium (conference center) and the city park called the Herrngarten. A little tricky to arrive by car, most guests seem to use taxis, also easy by tram from the Hauptbahnhof due to being in the center of town. Seems like the hotel is part of the campus of the Technical University. Excellent friendly service by young staff, excellent English skills. Large breakfast buffet in the restaurant facing the garten is a little pricey when it is not included with room. Bar/Bistro is fairly busy in the evening. Many American business people when I was there in July, not many tourists. Had an excellent stay.

Nice, clean hotel great walking area.

We are an American couple traveling for vacation in Europe. I speak German moderately well, my husband not at all. We stayed one night in Darmstadt, en route to a different location. My German friends told us that \"no one goes to Darmstadt, there is nothing to see.\" Needless to say, we had pretty low expectations. We were driving a car and I will say that the one problem with this hotel was that you cannot drive up to the front. The location had our GPS very confused. We were also confused and didn't realize (until our second time stressfully round-abouting back through the city) that you need to drive down into the large platz parking garage in order to be able to reach the hotel.

Anyhow, once we were parked in the CORRECT parking garage, our stay from there was wonderful. I conversed in German while checking in and was delighted to find out that the employee we dealt with spoke flawless English. She was more than happy to speak English (which I do appreciate but find slightly embarrassing at the same time.)

Our room was great, it looked to be newly remodeled. We checked out the \"fitness center\" and wished we had brought out bathing suits. In the evening we took a walk through the \"castle\" across the street and found a really great beer garden called the Ratskeller. They have fantastic beer and food. We spent many hours there and then walked through the shopping district. The area was much livelier and vibrant than I would have imagined!

Top hotel!

I got to Darmstadt after a very long day so it was a very pleasant surprise to arrive at the hotel (I parked in the underground car park associated with the hotel). I was given a corner suite overlooking the square which was really well appointed. The hotel is nominally a 4 star hotel, but I could not have wanted more. Important small things make the difference to a business traveller (I stay in alot of hotels). Things like free coffee facilities, free bottled water, an iron and ironing board (amazing how many hotels miss this one) and all importantly the mini bar with bottles of beer for €2. Yes, €2. I used the restaurant downstairs which was great and again inexpensive. Service was really good to, with plenty of smiles. I don't bother posting reviews generally but this was worth the effort of letting everyone know.

This hotel has a very good breakfast that is above standard. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Internet for wireless services is through a local telecom and is expensive if you are not a local but if you have a PC then they provide a wired service that is not free but the price is not unreasonable for 24 hours. Personally I think Internet should be wireless and free!! In hotels.
If you coming by private car then access to the hotel is via an underground car park that is difficult to find but once found it is convenient, there is a cost thou and its only free for 5 minutes. Coming by taxi then no problems. The hotel is in a good location and is above standard with helpful and nice staff.

A conference hotel

The hotel is set up as a conference hotel, not ideally suited for a family vacation. Whilst there is wired Internet in each room, this is not always free and with the quality of the hotel one would expect there to be free wireless Internet in every room. When we arrived, there were three of us standing in reception and the receptionist gave us a room for two because they had messed up the booking. There was no thought about where our son would sleep! It was an expensive hotel if you want food as well, as breakfast is not included in the room rates, which I hadn't found obvious before we arrived. It is very conveniently located for Darmstadt but has no parking.

I was traveling and needed a hotel for an over night stay. I found the Welcome Hotel through Expedia. The hotel was very nice. The staff was very friendly. The hotel is only a 5 min walk from the middle of town where there are lots of things to do. If you are a shopper you will enjoy. The morning buffet was very nice. Eggs, sausage, beacon and all the traditional European cold meats, breads and yogurts. The only two downsides were the size of the room and parking. The room was small but sufficient and parking was a challenge. A map of how to get to the underground parking on the home page would have been appreciated.
