Centrally located Hotel de France offers large, comfortable, clean rooms at a very reasonable price. The staff was always helpful, in particular a bellman, who was always there with good advice if the desk was getting overwhelmed. The on-property bar is comfortable, and the breakfasts are good. It's not an exciting hotel, but definitely a solid one. I'd definitely look... More

The rooms are spacious but very dated with inadequate air circulation and no view because of the high windows. The room was really hot and stuffy, but the location and price make it a good option for a couple of days. The staff was very kind and helpful.

Stayed here for 3 nights and it was a very pleasant stay. The hotel is in an excellent location for all the sights. Also you now get tea and coffee in the room as opposed to free mini bar, which I personally found much more useful. The choice at breakfast was excellent, but as usual some of the hot food... More

I am travelling a lot. I have stayed in more than 300 hotels worldwide. The room they gave me in this hotel is the worst ever! Tiny, no desk to work, USSR style of decoration, no way to lower the temperature (over 25), stairs to enter the shower... and the receptionists extremely unpolite!

The hotel is somewhere between a 4+ and a 5 start hotel. The location is great. Exactly near Metro station Schottentor, so you are in 10 min in St Stephan Platz with Metro or in 10-15 min by foot. Rooms are spacious, bed is good, breakfast ok (I have seen much better at 5* or 4* hotels), personnel extremely polite.... More

I thougth our room was nice and very interesting. It was a loft, so the main floor was restroom, closet, sitting area with Tv. Upstairs there were two beds (traveling with my daughter) and a half bath. The decor was interesting, the window on the first floor was round and had a panel that was from floor to ceiling that...
