Modern hotel very conveniently situated adjacent to the railway station (you can practically roll…read moreout of bed and into the train, since platform 1 is just outside the breakfast room). If you get a room on one of the top floors you'll get a grand view over the city and the rolling Schwarzwald hills - and the views will be quite mesmerizing from morning to night. My room was a queen sized one, nice and clean with what you could expect from a standard room. The obvious minus would be that the floor is carpeted with one of those old-fashioned carpets that are both yucky, non-allergy or environmental friendly. The bed and pillows are a bit soft plus there's something a bit mouldy smelly in the shower, the ventilation needs looking at. Also I miss sustainability efforts like the possibility to source separation your litter, a reminder that you needn't change your towels every day etc. Friendly staff, free wifi (although it's quite slow if you chose the free option) and the public transport ticket is included for all guests, which is great! Never tried the breakfast, not sure how well they could accomodate vegan options, I generally find hotel breakfasts boring and I love having breakfasts at cafes. So I'd sat opt out of the breakfast when you book your room and have a great breakfast at a nearby cafe instead (for example Huber or Café POW). With both pros and cons my overall rating will land at a strong 3.

However, they were very helpful in giving us directions to a rather obscure town on the edge of the Black Forest, and there was also a nice bar where I was able to have a beer before I ended up going to bed. Still, it was a rather nice hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Sure, I did want to check out the nightclub next door (that happened to be on the top floor of a building) but I ended up passing on that, and just relaxed in the bar.
