Stuttgart Independent Hotels & Suites

I stayed in the hotel for a short business trip. Very calm and comfortable.

Staff was friendly and able to give personal service, breakfast was sufficient, room was clean, walking distance to the city. This was closer to a four star hotel. An excellent choice for the price.

I had a great time at the Waldhotel. The room was clean and spacious enough to move around with having to dodge around furniture. There are multiple places in the hotel where one can sit quietly and relax both indoors and outdoors. The hotel is located in the Fildern woods in Stuttgart and hiking trails start right outside the hotel. Yes, it's a bit off from the centre (I paid around twenty euro for a cab ride from the train station) but it's only a 5 min walk to the subway, which will take you to the city centre (Schlossplatz) in about eight minutes. I was looking for a quiet place away from the hustle and bustle so this was perfect. I didn't try the hotel's restaurant, I'm sure they are great (but the prices are quite steep). If you are looking for some great traditional (South) German cuisine (Schnitzel, Maultaschen, etc), look no further than the TSV 07 Vereinsgaststaette, which is located very close to the hotel (exit the parking lot to the left, and turn right after some 20m): Friendly staff, inexpensive meals, large portions. I could have easily done without the jolly band of 50 Germans in the lobby one morning attending some "success training" seminar or the guy practicing saxophone (!) in his room close to the bar one morning (probably a performer at the Stuttgart Jazz Festival) but these were just minor nuisances and as I said, there are pleny of spots on the property that offer peace and quiet. Would definitely go there again.

Great place to stay if you have a car and will visit to tour Mercedes. It's a 5 minute drive. If you are using pubic transportation you have to stay in the city and use the public train to the factory tour. Otherwise this is a stunningly themed hotel. The rooms are big and clean and bright. Staff is friendly and gave us water as we checked out. Breakfast is not included but it is a nominal charge for nice food.

We told staff we had and early flight. They told us no one would be on staff so I prepaid our room. They called a cab for us for 4:30am. Unfortunately when the cab arrived we were locked in the building with no instruction on how to get out. We found a way out through the basement door no exit signs or lights. What if there was a fire, how would guests know how to get out?

I am from the United States but travel to Germany frequently. I was traveling as a single female and wanted a safe, clean hotel with internet, parking and breakfast and I found it all in this small small German hotel run by a German couple. If you want these same features in a German hotel and also want to have a German hotel experience, this is a good one to try. They prepare a delicious full German spread for breakfast which is very different from American breakfasts at hotels. The German couple was helpful and kind to me. They speak English which was also necessary for me. There is free parking, free internet and the breakfast was included in the price of the hotel room...which is a big plus in German hotels. Most places seemed to charge for parking, internet and breakfast separately and I was very impressed to receive these features for the cost of the room. If you want the German experience give this small-medium family hotel a chance and you won't be disappointed.

I've been using the Park Hotel a few times as a stop over before a flight out of STR. Every time, the staff and the hotel itself impress me with their courtesy, helpfulness and overall quality. Great rooms, great atmosphere, great restaurant.

English speaking staff, clean, high standard food in restaurant

This is not your run of the mill hotel. The restaurant serves some of the finest dishes in the area. You'll be amazed at the quality of food. The service is very personal so you will enjoy your visit. I gave it 5 stars for the food quality. The food is so nice that the locals visit to hold their get-togethers.
