I'm a Marriott fan boy and we needed a place that was close to the Bahnhof for an early train to…read moreFrance and Aloft fit the bill. But wait!!! It's not only for early trains out of Stuttgart, it's exceptionally close to everything you'd want to do in downtown Stuttgart and, it's attached to a mall?
I question that because I'm certain (almost) that it was attached to a mall but it was a holiday so I'm not 100%. Speaking of holiday, I was pretty bummed that the bar wasn't open as even when I've visited other hotels on holidays, the bar and/or restaurant has been open. Despite that, a 5 star experience as the staff was awesome! Got a beer on the house due to the bar being closed and they even wished my wife a happy birthday.
The room was wonderful. Aloft hotels are relatively newer from Marriott so I wasn't surprised but it was a great short stay. Check-in and check-out was seamless.
