The Travel Company Edinburgh

Wouldn’t it be fabulous if there was a city that was both soaring and shiny like New York but also had all the quaint, olde worlde charm of a historic European destination?

Although this might sound a bit like the Holy Grail of travel, we just might have found the very place for you.

While Frankfurt has a skyscraper studded skyline reminiscent of Manhattan, it also has enough medieval chic to make you feel like you’ve travelled back in time.

Experience both sides of the city for yourself with today’s Big Deal for a three night hotel getaway with flights included.

Charming Frankfurt

As mentioned, Frankfurt offers like the best of old and new, as far as cities go. There is the global financial hub area with its gleaming glass skyscraper skyline, and there is the medieval Frankfurt with its outdoor cafes, quaint taverns and riverside strolls.

Add to this a lively nightlife scene plus plenty of parks, gardens and museums to explore, and it’s safe to say that you will find plenty of ways fill your time during this late summer/autumn break.

Central hotel near to main attractions

As the name suggests, the three-star Star Inn Frankfurt City Centrum is in the heart of all the action, near to the Skyline Plaza. You will also be close to attractions such as Messe Frankfurt, the Commerzbank Arena, Frankfurt Zoological Garden, Palmengarten botanical garden and much more.

The hotel features a 24-hour bar serving snacks, a 24-hour front desk, paid underground parking and a guest laundry service.

Your comfy double or twin room will come with free WiFi, a complimentary daily newspaper, a 42-inch TV, a hairdryer and a fridge.

Happy guests

Star Inn Frankfurt City Centrum has gained positive reviews from previous guests on TripAdvisor, including the following:

‘We stayed for one night as a family of four. The room was huge with a big balcony. The room was clean. But pillow was too soft. 5 minutes walk from central train station. Front desk was very helpful to arrange taxi for us since we needed to leave very early in the morning.’

‘Fairly spacious rooms and very clean, the staff were friendly and approachable, no tea and coffee making facilities but the bar downstairs does serve nice coffee. 5 min walk from train station and 10 mins from main centre attractions. Plenty of bars and restaurants around the area.’

‘Super little hotel. Five minutes stroll to central railway station. Fifteen minutes walk to Romer (the old centre square). Hotel was spotless and all public areas were well kept. Rooms were very clean and beds were changed regularly. Rooms and shower rooms were well appointed and fairly large, there is a refrigerator in the room. Nothing was too much trouble for any off the staff. Would definitely recommend for a short stay. Only downside is there are no drink making facilities in the room.’

Fly out to Frankfurt

This three night Frankfurt escape for two is super flexible as it offers a wide choice of flight dates. Plus as you will be staying in a comfy hotel close to many of the main tourist highlights, you and your partner will be able to enjoy the best that the city has to offer.

So why not book this treat for later in the year and give yourself something special to look forward to in late summer or autumn?
