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.
Great hotel and room overall, well located, clean, friendly staff.
The only downsides are cable TV with only German channels and no mini bar in the room
Friendly staff. Everything you need. Solid and clean. Parking at level-1 only 15€. Completely quiet room despite the proximity to the railway. Good breakfast. We will stay there next time for sure.
The room was comfortable and close to the train station, which was helpful for our stay.
The interior of the hotel is much nicer and smarter looking (and newer looking) than the outside. The breakfast was nice.
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....

Overall good hotel, clean rooms. Location is a bit stand-offish but it was safe walking around and getting back at night
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.
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.
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.
Great location to railway station and public transport. Easy to catch trams into Marktplatz etc. Safe area. Good variety of breakfast. Staff are helpful. Rooms clean and comfy. Our double or twin rooms are small, bathroom a good size. Bathroom has the all in one wash liquid soap/hair Shampoo.
Lovely lounge reception area, cosy.

Kamer was schoon. Hotel is simpel maar was van te voren bekend en was voor ons prima voor een nachtje. We hadden een 3 persoonskamer met een 2 persoonsbed en een soort fauteuil waar een eenpersoons bed van was gemaakt. Dit bed lag behoorlijk hard alsof je op planken lag. Wat ook bijzonder was, was dat je een consumptie gelijk moest afrekenen. Je kon niet iets op rekening bestellen. En het avondeten was beperkt. Dit was van te voren bekend en ook prima. Maar toen we iets van de kaart wilden bestellen moest er eerst geïnformeerd worden of alle ingrediënten wel aanwezig waren. En ‘s ochtends met ontbijt duurde het vrij lang totdat tafels werden opgeruimd en schoongemaakt. Hierdoor gingen gasten op plekken verderop in het hotel zitten. Ontbijt was overigens prima. En voor een nachtje was het hotel over het algemeen prima.
Sehr gute Lage,nettes Personal, nur Sauberkeit war leider nicht so gut das kennen wir aus anderen Premier Inn besser ansonsten wieder sehr gut geschlafen 👍
