Unfortunately, the stay at the Meridien in Frankfurt was a bit of a disappointment. The rooms are furnished without much care, the breakfast is average, anything extra is expensive (“signature egg dish” for 17 EUR in addition to the breakfast charge). Not even freshly made coffee, if you want one, you have to pay extra for it, too.
It’s clear that the location close to the main station will never be a nice one, but when we asked the concierge for a lunch restaurant recommendation, he sent us (two women by themselves) to Kaiserstrasse, which is the street with the heaviest drug traffic and heavily drugged people on the street any time, even during the day.
All in all, this used to be a really good hotel, but I can’t really recommend it anymore.
