Very nice old place. The food was excellent with a good breakfast buffet. The staff was professional and helpful. Parking is available but we came by train. The stop is about 100 meters from the hotel. The restaurant food is expensive but worth it.
Henry, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Like: SPA is amazing, big-ish pool with integrated jacuzzi, lots of beds, bar, free fruits, water and tea; nice saunas, clean 10/10, towels, chairs, beds. Massages are mediocre, don't expect anything wow. Restaurant is amazing, food is 8/10, service is impeccable, expect high end prices. Breakfast is probably one of the best in DE, cant complain, maybe add more vegetables and some more lactose free stuff, the made on spot omelettes are almost perfect. Bar is nice, smoking area, cigars shop, nice cocktails, expect high end prices here as well. DON’T like: Rooms??? All of them… except maybe the high end ones - the suit style which are spacious, clean of course, big bathrooms. Tbh big and clean bathrooms have even smallest rooms. Pillows are terrible, just change them for Christ sake, they feel like a piece of cloth with nothing inside, feels like having nothing under your head. Mattress are almost as terrible but are manageable for 1-2 nights. Beds well depends on the room, the single business whatever rooms feels like you are staying in a hostel, student dorm rooms, smallest bed ever.
Nicolae, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

If you want to eat dinner at the hotel you have to make reservations way ahead of time. Being a hotel guest doesn't necessarily give you access to the restaurant, had to go elsewhere each night. Staff is not friendly

Le spa est idéal juste ceux qu’il faut hors st valentin trop de monde sinon super je recommande ne temps normal
Jérémie, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is my go-to hotel when I am in Karlsruhe for business. The location works well, the restaurant is good, and the cigar bar is a nice touch. The staff is generally friendly and professional. The spa area is one of the highlights: spacious, clean, with a nice bar, a solid pool, and especially excellent saunas. That part of the hotel feels well maintained and thoughtfully designed. However, the rooms are a completely different story. Some of the single rooms feel extremely outdated, almost like a small guesthouse from decades ago. The design, furniture, and overall atmosphere do not match the standard suggested by the common areas. Even the suites, while better, are still clearly dated. It honestly feels like two separate worlds: modern public spaces and spa versus rooms that have not kept up with the same standard. If you book here, pay close attention to the room category. The difference is significant. And if you expect a more modern or premium room, be prepared for rates above €200 per night. Overall, a good business hotel with strong facilities, but the room quality is inconsistent and does not fully align with the rest of the property.

Ein 5-Sterne-Hotel, das vor 30–40 Jahren gewiss einen sehr gehobenen Standard hatte, ist inzwischen leider deutlich in die Jahre gekommen. Der Wellnessbereich ist jedoch modern und sehr schön. Die Fotos bei der Buchung sahen top aus, aber die Wirklichkeit ist ein bisschen anders.
