A great property to stay in Stuttgart close to the airport. Great hospitality from the staff,…read moreawesome rooms, bar, kitchen that prepare great meals (the choices available for breakfast is great). There are four separate buildings that houses rooms and during inclement weather, you may get wet/cold as you traverse between buildings, just be careful if it's icy, but they do a good job of liberally applying deicer. Just remember, it meets European standards, not US so there is no alarm/clock, and European outlets (so you will need to have adapters).
PRO:
* Bar - awesome selection made even better by the bartender, Steve who goes out of his way to be hospitable and makes awesome drinks
* Property is awesome - bathroom is tiled, and in efficient German manner, the hot water pipes are under them so the floor is warm
* Breakfast has a great mix of traditional European fare (cold cuts, cheese, yogurt, bread, muesli) as well as some American style fare (eggs, bacon, sausage, etc.) and coffee machine that provides various selection from expresso, cappuccino, latte, etc.
* Spacious room with a separate living room area, bedroom, kitchen - my suite had three televisions, living room, bedroom, and even the batroom!
CON:
* No gym on site - you will need to go across the street to the KANTO Medical & Figure Lounge located on the second floor. NOTE: Bring a towel from the hotel or have cash (Euros) on hand or you will not be allowed to work out. The gym is more a "posh" spa/gym with lots of exercise machines and equipment. Work outs may not be the main focus as carpet and not the standard rubberized flooring covers the weight room area. Another limiting factor is that the operating hours is 1000-2200 (10pm).
* Parking stalls are a bit tight so be aware - when leaving the garage after hours (early or late), the door will be closed, pull the rope to activate the door to open
* The entrance to the property is not via the main road, but via a back entrance that is a bit confusing. Driving to property will take some map skills, or great map app (I used Waze), my colleagues another app - I did not have any issues.
A definite property to stay when staying in Stuttgart, especially since its close to the airport.
