Radisson Blu Hotel, Karlsruhe

Paying for parking was odd but the breakfast was good and rooms were clean. Showers and sink backed up water immediately.

I booked a standard room, but upon check-in, the receptionist informed me that these rooms are only located on the first floor—something that wasn't mentioned in the hotel description. They offered an upgrade to a higher floor for an additional €20 per day, which adds up to a significant amount for longer stays. On the bright side, the room had everything needed for a comfortable stay, including a fridge, coffee maker, kettle, and iron. The breakfast was delicious, and the hotel also has a gym and a sauna. However, the air conditioning was very noisy and barely cooled the room. Another major downside is that the hotel is surrounded by highways, making it extremely noisy, even at night if you keep the windows open. That being said, the staff were very accommodating and always ready to help.

Clean room, nice spa, very nice staff! I was especially thankful for the General Manager who was so kind to us. We tried to pay for parking on the way out and she was taking care of the front desk while her employee was somewhere else. She could not ring us up and just gave us a ticket to get out. She didn’t make us wait and was very kind.

Easy parking and enough space, Dog allowed and fair fee for dogs. Very friendly staff . Clean and spacious rooms, unfortunately with carpet on the floors which I do not like.
