2 light bulbs not working in bathroom and tv remote not working. Needs more care.
It was very convenient for our stay. The only minor comment I have is that the cleaning lady came to clean at 9am, when the check out is at 12 and we stayed there one night only. She knock the door. We hadn't put the "don't disturb" sign because we didn't think it was needed as we were going to check out the same day. She came back at 11, the sign was on and she still knocked. So it was disturbing. It was during the frankfurt book fair, so maybe it was needed to do all fast, but we founded a little inconvenient to be bothered.
My room was so small. Shower head was broken as well. Staff was really good and helpful. Breakfast options were so limited.
My stay was amazing! I was able to check in early which was especially helpful as I just arrived from a 12-hour flight. Staff was really friendly.
The hotel lobby and room were very nice and the location was excellent.
i missed some water/ a glass or a water boiling to prepare a tee
super
Perfect location, 10-15 minute walk to everything. Super close to main train station. Room was small for two people but everything was so clean and the bed was comfortable.
Overall always a really nice stay - clean, modern, quiet room, friendly staff. Related to the breakfast - any chance you can add some nuts, raisins or dried fruits as a topping for the oats or even serve a pot of warm porridge. It is not costly but certainly would fit people´s menu who focus on a healthy but simple warm meal in the morning.
The staff was very friendly and accommodated our early arrival promptly. The room was spotless and as quiet as a tomb. We will be back again.
The hotel has no phone to communicate with the front desk. The AC in our room was not working, when i went down to inform front desk, they rudely replied that we don't have AC in this hotel. How weird is that because on trip advisor it shows the rooms are air conditioned.
Hervorragender Service.
Super netter Service Reception
I love everything except that the water is one time only and that is on the first day.
Our room was small and dark. Needs a night light and a desk surface. The shower pressure and water stream was lovely. Breakfast was good. Nice location to old town.
Its always great in a Motel One. The one in Frankfurt was particularly nice. However, it was quite pricey, too, and I wouldnt go there if it wasnt for the work context I was in. The fish movie that automatically starts in the room is creepy as hell :-)
Bestes Business Hotel in Frankfurt!
Great location. Walking distance from train and local attractions. Great stay
The staff is extremely nice at reception and at the bar. The hotel is beautiful and the rooms are very clean.
Everything was good. The only issue was no fridge
Everything was good
It was expensive, and the buffet doesn’t give you any options for breakfast other than small sandwiches.
I was missing hot breakfast food (e.g. scrambled eggs, saucages). If I would have been aware of this, I would not have booked the breakfast ... just to have a cup of coffee.
Always lovely staying at MotelOne, staff is super helpful and friendly. Thank you
The hotel was clean and the staff were friendly. Two items that I did not like. Without breakfast, I couldn't get a cup of coffee in the morning without having to pay 3 euro per cup from a machine. Most hotels have a personal machine in the room. Having to go to the lobby was inconvenient but then to be charged extra on top of that was not good. I would think at least a cup of coffee should be included in a room stay. The other item was the location of the toilet. I had trouble getting around the door to get to it. If the door opened out, it would have been much better.
Very good stay. Quiet, good quality beds and linen. Great breakfast with many options. The room could be a little bigger.
The guy who checked us in was outstanding. Thank you very much to him. I am sorry i didnt get his name but we were weary travellers and he was so accomodating
Nice hotel with their own parking close to the centre of the city. Rooms on the small size and no proper desk if you need to do some work.
This was a return visit for me, I have stayed at this Motel One before. Always a great experience, lovely people and great experience, thanks!
Midrange price, good enough quality, money well spent - visited during Automekanika 2026 in Frankfurt
Having stayed there many times it’s as expected. Location close to Old Town is good. The rooms are quite good and an adequate size. They do lack in wardrobe space and no bedside drawers. The continental breakfast would be better for some if it included some type of cold fish such as Herrings or smoked salmon. It’s generally difficult getting seats but there is no actual restaurant. Overall no real complaints and always an enjoyable stay.
We had everything we needed. Very helpful staff and a great location. Great breakfast and high housekeeping standards. Thank you
Came for 1 night only, no breakfast. I came in the morning and received the room! I appreciate it a lot. Room is nice, comfy bed and sheets. Water pressure is too low.
The staff was kind, the breakfast was okay, and the room was a bit small
Excellent location, nice and comfortable rooms. Very well-maintained hotel. Super friendly staff. My only feedback is that the morning of check-out , housekeeping knocked on my door at 10 am, and 5 minutes later someone actually opened the door. This is completely unacceptable. I mentioned it to someone in reception and they apologized, saying the staff is new. However, I read online several comments with the same topic, so it may be a recurrent thing at the hotel, which changed my perception of the hotel.
We can't think of anything negative, room, bed, shower, parking and in the heart of Frankfurt, everything was excellent.
Good Hotel in the middle of the town, Carpet floor which is horrible in 2026, other than that good size room. Breakfast is expensive and bad as usual with all Motel Ones, also Coffee was this time off. Biggest downside is that you can book Radisson Blue at basically the same cost, with better view, free Parking and good breakfast. Would not come back to this one.
I’m your client me and my friend jimmy Always we used your properties in all Europe ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The bed was super comfortable. The room was well equiped. I was sent to a room for disabled people, I would rather prefer a normal one, ideally with a real bath :) Something to mention, is that I was expecting to have real glasses instead of paper cups, I prefer not to drink or use and I would also appreciate to have a real closet for the clothes. Anything else was perfect.
All good. One thing: When checking in there is a queue and although I checked-in online I had to wait even if it was only to tell them my name and get the room key. There should be an extra queue for the people who check-in online.
thank you for your hospitality
The reception staff is very helpful and efficient. The room was a little on the small side, but was very well-equipped and comfortable. All in all a comfortable stay.
The hotel located in a great place . It’s very beautiful. The rooms are good and very clean . The staff are very nice
Everything was good except for the cleaning team knocking on our door on two occasions to see if they could clean our room despite the fact that check-out is 12 o’clock. This disturbance is not necessary.
Great venue and perfectly placed for my business trip. The bar and restaurant areas are very comfortable and stylish, the bedrooms are perfectly functional, the breakfast was very enjoyable and the staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming.
One of the best and most kind receptionists I have met. Everything was perfect!
A perfect spot for a clean, comfortable stay, close to tourist areas a few minutes from the old town. The reception and lounge areas are welcoming, cool on a hot day, with stylish furnishings and quiet nooks. Staff helpful and professional.
We had a wonderful stay and would definitely come back. The hotel was clean, modern, and the staff was very friendly and welcoming. Before our arrival, I kindly asked if it would be possible to have a room on a high floor with a nice view. I was so happy that my request was granted! We received a room on the top floor with an amazing view over the city, and it truly made our stay even more special. Thank you for paying attention to my request and for making our visit such a memorable experience. I highly recommend this hotel and look forward to staying here again.
Great location, beautiful breakfast. Nice staff, particularly the breakfast and housekeeping staff members. Very clean. This is our second stay in this hotel and would definitely stay there again. Great value.
In the heart of the city, easy to reach with metro, bus or by foot. The room was spacious, organised, efficient, very clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Great experience!

For history buffs
Frankfurt’s ‘new’ old town
Once upon a time, Frankfurt wasn’t just known for its ultra-modern skyscrapers, but also for its old town. Until World War II, one of Germany’s largest timber-framed old towns stretched through the heart of the current finance hub. It was a place where kings were chosen, emperors crowned and the ideas of poets and philosophers like Goethe and Schopenhauer celebrated. In 2018, Frankfurt managed to retrieve a bit of its history through the ‘DomRömer Quarter’ project, which oversaw the erection of a ‘new’ old town across 7,000 m2 between Frankfurt Cathedral and the Römer.
Using original materials, and with an incredible attention to detail, 15 reconstructions of historical buildings and 20 contemporary new buildings have been developed that display typical architectural elements of the former old town. You can explore the crooked alleyways and charming squares of the neighbourhood along with its restaurants and small boutiques on your own, with a or even virtually .
For Foodies
Treat yourself to homemade cakes and other specialities in this cosy café, where love has gone into both the food and the décor. The café hosts small concerts here once a month, the ‘Sugar Mama Sessions’.
A stylish, US-inspired deli that draws in visitors with its pastrami sandwiches during the day and drink creations at night.
A popular Lebanese food stand where guests stand in line for what is likely the best falafel in the city – which is why there are two branches.
This sweets oasis offers more than just tasty snacks: you can also browse for delicious gifts for loved ones at home (or even for yourself!).
A TASTE OF SOMETHING NEW
Frankfurt-Sachsenhausen
No visitor to Frankfurt should miss out on the famous local Apfelwein (apple wine). Sachsenhausen, the ‘Ebbelwei’ district to the south of the Main, offers an array of Apfelwein establishments and is just a 20-minute walk from our hotel. If you’d like to explore other areas while tasting Apfelwein, you can hop on the ‘’, a special historical tram line that stops in different.

Fine Print
In our Motel One Frankfurt-Römer you will find a textbook example of readmarkable design.
Hotel Frankfurt Römer
Our hotel in Frankfurt am Main could also go by the name ‘Mainhattan Central’. After all, there’s almost no place more central than the Motel One Frankfurt-Römer. The old town is right around the corner, featuring the city’s medieval town hall, the Römer. The design hotel is also close to St Paul’s Church, Frankfurt Cathedral and the MMK Museum für Moderne Kunst. The Goethe House, where the German poet was born in 1749, is just a short walk away. While culture and history enthusiasts are spoilt for choice, the area also has a lot to offer fashionistas and foodies. The city centre with its cafés, restaurants and shopping streets is right on the doorstep of our affordable hotel, meaning there’s nothing standing in the way of a leisurely stroll through the city. And in case you get bored of this side of the river, you can conveniently cross the Main over the Eiserner Steg footbridge from the old town to the trendy Brückenviertel neighbourhood.
Or read another book: Frankfurt is one of the early centres of book publishing and trade – and, of course, the home of the international annual book fair. So it’s no wonder that the design concept of our budget hotel in Frankfurt centres on the book as a medium. From floating paper page lamps at reception to silver-coated decorative letters in the breakfast area, the interior is inspired by the industrial manufacturing process and a charming library atmosphere. But if you’re imagining dusty tomes and dark reading corners, you’re mistaken: modern furniture design and colourful works from the paintbrush of artist Henrik Zimmer – who creatively investigated the topic of ‘reading’ for us – are more likely to remind you of a fairy tale.
