Tulip Inn Mainz Central

Central Hotel Eden

Wow! Convenient-city! You couldn't be closer to the train station unless you were in it. It's not particularly "central" to the center of Mainz, to its main attractions and sites, but it is ideal if you are looking for a place that's going to be an easy "schlep" for you and your luggage.

I had an early morning translantic flight to catch from the Frankfurt Airport - and it was an easy "commute" from Mainz, on a direct commuter train route, about a half hour journey from the hotel to the airport. I highly recommend Mainz as an alternative/supplement to Frankfurt.

The Central Hotel is an older property, and feels like it hasn't been substantially updated since 1965. But it has a particular faded charm that I liked a lot. It's a far cry from the corporate banality of the 21st century! The elevator is "charming" (i.e. old) and the rooms resemble dormitories, but you could pick up a free wireless connection in the hotel lobby, and in the bar, the drinks were cheap. Also, as a Tulip Inn a tasty and substantial breakfast buffet was available for a song. Oh, and I got a great off-season rate here.

• Opinion of Price: about average
