Top Karlsruhe City Centre Hotel Reviews

Radisson Blu Hotel, Karlsruhe

8/10 Good

"The hotel is just off the motorway and is quite remote. There is a large car park with electric chargers. There is a 90 minute charging time allowed before idling fees are incurred. Although there was a Dutch non electric car parked in the bay all night blocking the charger and there did not appear to be any attempt to move it. The fee for the car park is displayed at 17Euros. Initially we did not book the parking but were later offered it at 12 Euros which we accepted. There are some free street parking spots around the industrial estates but a lot of the spaces are designated for the workers in the actual units. Apart from the hotel there are no other facilities on site. The rooms are large and have a mini fridge, kettle and tea and coffee facilities but no milk. Comfortable bed but the air con was a little noisy. The town is accessible by walking over the bridge which crosses the motorway - its takes about 15 minutes. There is a beer garden there but it was shut on the Tuesday we were there. There is a supermarket and a small shop which sells beer. It is a good hotel for a one night stopover"

Steigenberger Icon Europäischer Hof Baden Baden

10/10 Excellent

"Five stars! We celebrated our anniversary here and had an incredible time. The entire hotel is immaculate and beautiful. The daily breakfast was amazing, featuring fresh food and plenty of options. The location is perfect too, situated right in Old Town with easy access to restaurants and shopping. We will absolutely be returning!"

Motel One Karlsruhe

8/10 Good

"The hotel was easy to find, parking was safe and simple. Check in was fast, the front desk person was friendly. Highly recommend! My reservation was for two but the bathroom was only set with towels for one and the blanket on the bed was fit for a toddler or small person. We did not get this fixed because we checked in late."
