Hotel Santo

I had never stayed in this hotel before but it was a good stop off point between the channel and southern germany. I thought £40ish for a 4* hotel was pretty cheap. From the outside I was disapointed, its on a busy street joined to a supermarket. However, the hotel is a bit of a hidden gem. Large reception area in marble with an art deco theme, cocktail lounge and basement italian resteraunt. There is free parking on the roof, classed as insecure and secure parking for a fee in the underground garrage. There is always space on the roof and access is more or less restricted so I parked there. The room was large and spotless with good a/c, flat screen, mini-bar(useful fridge)and,not common in Germany, tea and coffee tray in the wardrobe. Staff could not have been more helpfull. Use of well equiped and underused gym club next door for free. 4* hotel at a budget price with a lot of extras thrown in. Liked it so much I stayed there on the way back as well! 10 minute walk to main shopping area.

If you park on the roof at about 3rd floor level, there is no lift just walk down the stairs or the ramp.

Very tasteful deco and really soothing energy in the room. One of the best mattresses!

Narrow space for toilet and shower.
