Staff were great and the hotel was spotless, the room was perfect for the 4 of us. The only disappointment was the cost of breakfast, found it to be really expensive and not a great deal of choice for 18€ PP

Nice hotel with clean rooms and air-conditioning that worked.
Located close to a train station where there’s also plenty of parking available for a smaller fee.
Public parking available right across the street for less than €10 or you can use hotels underground garage for €16.
Hotel located within 10 minutes of walking distance to restaurants and grocery store

This is a great hotel in a great location. You're only steps from the train station, and downtown is totally walk-able. Also, there's parking both on-site and right across the street, and you're right by the autobahn.
If you arrive by rail, and rent a car, Karlsruhe is a great location from which to set out on an exploration of the Black Forest. The tech museums in Sinsheim and Speyer are 20 minutes away.
The staff here are fantastic, and the property is in excellent condition and well-maintained.
Highly recommended.

It was one night stop on the way to Austria.
In the past we stayed in few different hotels but this time Premier Inn was the cheapest.
Everything was spot on.... Location, parking, room, food....

Very cozy room and extremely comfy bed and pillows!
The service was good and the location is a big plus, since the main station is few meters away.
Everything clean, silent and spacious bathroom, the only bad side is the water pressure in the shower.

I travelled with wife and young Son.The Hotel is stones throw away from the Bahnhof. The location is calm and safe. Pleanty of parking space around,( paid and limited unpaid). The Staff are icing on the cake, sweet , responsive and very Helpful.
Recommended for family.
The rooms are small but manageable.
We stayed for one week. Cleaning was done every two days as requested.
The AC was not working ..this is was only negative point. The front office had no clue when the technician would come to rectify it.

Really good. Quiet, comfortable room with fantastic shower. Nice reception and bar area that did a very decent cocktail. Right near the station, which is in turn a short tram or walk from Karlsruhe center. Excellent value. Compared to Premier Inns in the UK, which we are more familiar with, this is so so much better for much less cost! Thanks very much and keep up the great work.
