“park and beyond”

Maingau

5 of 5 stars
Great Neck, NY
May 13, 2008

this is a gem of a hotel. It is in a residential neighbor across the street from a park. Parking can be difficult but they are very accommodating. Museums are close by. The Old
Town is nearby

there is a great breakfast, where eggs are available as well as all the usual cheeses and meats. The rooms are relatively small but the beds are very comfortable.

The staff was very pleasant and helpful and spoke English. There is a lift and there is a dining room for evening meals which is top of the line and very expensive. Breakfast is in the same restaurant.

Thanks Trip Advisor!
Really nice Hotel in a great location.
Stayed in a single room which was clean and plenty of space.
Rooms were cleaned each day, all staff very friendly.
Nice breakfast.
Location Fantastic for eating places and PLACES TO DRINK!!!.
Opposite a park.
My first trip to Frankfurt and really enjoyed the place but would stay either at this Hotel or in the area again as much better than the area around the main Railway station!

“A great find”

Maingau

Oct 4, 2007
2/2 found this review helpful

This was a great find in Frankfurt. It is 3 blocks from the Pedestrian Bridge to Alstadt. It sits accross the street from a park, among many restaurants, bars, and shops. It is a short walk to the S line to go anywhere.

The rooms are small, neat, clean and plain. The breakfast buffet is standard but served in the restaurant next door - on linens with wine glasses for water and juice!. Very nice.

It has a lift, location and reasonable - all I ask for in a hotel.

“Applewine!”

Maingau

Aug 18, 2007
3/3 found this review helpful

Frankfurt is expensive. I think this hotel is a good option. It's in the applewine district, so there are lots of great restaurants nearby. Surprisingly, the museum area is also easily reachable on foot. Even the historic downtown we walked to crossing a nice pedestrian bridge. The subway and streetcar stops are nearby and we used them frequently to navigate around downtown and travel to the train station. Due to the number of bags we had, a taxi was the best option for travel to the airport.

The hotel is dated but certainly adequate. The surprise for us was the park across the street which had a playground. This was a great break for our seven year old. Be sure to ask for a park facing room.

    • Liked — Easy access to historic downtown and train station. Plus the applewine!
    • Disliked — Dated interior and lobby smells smokey.

“Clean, Cheap, and Convenient”

Maingau

Sep 18, 2006
4/4 found this review helpful

Hotel Maingu is a simple and clean hotel in the older part of Frankfurt. The location is great for walking to the central part of the city. We had two rooms there at the beginning of September--one for two people and one for three. Both were small, simple and clean. I'm not sure I would want to stay here if I were spending a lot of time in the room, but it was entirely adequate for the one night stopover we had. The included breakfast was great, and the staff helpful. Room prices were quite modest for Europe, making the hotel a bargain find at a time when the dollar is weak.

    • Disliked — room size, but it was bigger than most European hotels
