3 Best Hotels in City Center, Frankfurt

This international chain's downtown Frankfurt outpost is still primarily a business hotel (with lower rates on weekends), but it's still welcoming to kids and pets, not to mention a hip lobby bar (Gekkos) that is definitely worth a visit. In addition, it has all the perks the business traveler wants, from secretarial services to video conferencing facilities. 

The Ibis is a reliable budget hotel chain, and this location offers simple, straightforward rooms on a quiet street near the river. Rooms are small but efficiently decorated, and the hotel is air-conditioned, a bonus in this price category.

Those who like downtown Frankfurt will appreciate the Westin's location, just steps from the famous Zeil shopping street, plus all the features of a high-end chain hotel, including a fitness room, spa, pool, and sauna. Re-opened in 2022 after an extensive renovation, each room has a Westin Heavenly Bed (they're also available for your dog). There is an impressive collection of museum-quality vintage cars in the lobby, and in an unusual retreat from the public areas, where smoking is forbidden, a swanky cigar lounge. Four restaurants, including Sushimoto with a Japanese menu, are on the premises.
