Definitely not closed…read more Check in is at 3pm, plan accordingly. There are lovely fish aquariums here and some nice sofas to plant yourself on for awhile. It took a while to find my room-- it is an indirect route from the reception area. But the room is pretty cool and there is an amazing view of the Rhine River. The grounds are very lovely with large old trees and wild parrots that live here. The beds are very comfy and all is well EXCEPT the wifi is extraordinarily slow. And there are no Do Not Disturb signs-- housekeeping is aggressive and you will want to lock your door. Other than that this place is A-OK.

This is the best 11th C castle that I have been to in Germany. There is no awfully narrated audio…read moretour and no bored guides leading you through the passages. Its self guided so you go at your own pace. It is large and has a lot of areas including secret or dark passages that you can explore on your own. Bring a flashlight. Seriously. Though my iphone with flashlight app worked just fine. It has some new areas such as the museum but mostly this is a very well preserved ruin. Expect to spent 2-3 hours here. There is a tram from town that will take you up but its no more than a 15 min walk. We did it pulling our luggage and leaving it at the ticket booth while we explored. The kids will love this place. Oh and there is a restaurant there too in case anyone in your group would rather drink. Have fun.

Plus, it's a little on the swanky side, which is cool. We were on the penthouse level with great views, a wonderful room, and nice upgrades. I especially liked the electronic blinds mounted on the outside of the windows which helped block both the sunlight and the street noise. The breakfast, which was included, was by far one of the nicest we experienced in our two week Euro-trip. An abundance of quality and assortments for different tastes abound for all. Value, location, quality, and service: I recommend this hotel for those looking to find a nice stay at reasonable prices. Go here.

The air conditioning is a great asset for the few month it is needed. The room is completely sound isolated from the street. Parking is not included, but parking in the public garage gets you use of the public transport system. Staff was friendly and helpful with tourist sights and directions. I will stay here again if I'm ever in Mainz again.

Booked the Town Hotel based on Trip Advisor reviews. The location is convenient to downtown…read moreWiesbaden. Street parking is hard to find and it's best to park at the Kurhaus Parking Garage. The cost is discounted to 12 euros if you stay at the hotel. Go to the hotel first to get your parking ticket before entering the parking garage. The parking garage is just a few minutes walk to the hotel. The hotel is modern and clean. We booked a standard room and upon the clerk seeing our luggage (one large suitcase and 2 carry-ons) she upgraded us to their largest room (a superior) which was still small; you will feel cramped. I imagine that the economy rooms are very small. The hotel staff was very nice and helpful with any request. The hallways can be a little noisy at night. We were awaken several times by noise coming from the hallway (just people walking and talking) late at night. The rooms aren't very sound proof. I should have guessed this because they put ear plugs on the night stands on each side of the bed. They have a section in the lobby set aside with a refrigerator and shelfs which contain drink and snack items for sale. You just take what you want (honesty system) and let the staff know the next day or when you leave and they will add the cost to your bill. The prices for these items are a little high but it's convenient (example 8.50 euros for a bottle of wine that you can get at a store for about 3 euros the beer was priced more reasonably). They have breakfast in the morning at 7.90 euros per person. We ate there once. We are not big breakfast eaters and we did not feel that what we ate justified the expense (x2 + 15.89 euros). We liked going to the bakery across the street for our breakfast. We got coffee and a few baked goods for about 5 euros. This was our fourth stay at a hotel in downtown Wiesbaden. We travel here often and are searching for that perfect hotel with a decent price. This would not be our first choice of places that we have stayed but if the price was right we would consider staying here again.
