Hotel Astoria am Urachplatz

Hotel Description

So I’ve stayed at Hotel Astoria am Urachplatz a handful of times now, and honestly? It’s one of those places that grows on you. First impression walking up Rotenbergstraße – it’s not flashy, but there’s something reassuring about that. The building has this solid, unpretentious vibe that feels very Stuttgart-Ost, you know? The neighborhood itself is actually pretty great – you’re tucked away from the tourist crowds but still close enough to walk to the main sights when you feel like it.

What I really appreciate about this place is how it handles the basics well without trying too hard. The rooms are clean and comfortable (I mean, it’s a 3-star, so manage expectations accordingly), but the beds are actually decent and the windows open properly – which sounds silly until you’ve been trapped in some hermetically sealed hotel box elsewhere. The staff at reception genuinely seem to know the area, too. Last time I was there, the guy working evenings gave me directions to this little Turkish place around the corner that I never would’ve found otherwise. Parking can be a bit of a puzzle in this part of town, but they’ll point you toward the right streets where you won’t get ticketed.

Here’s the thing though – the Urachplatz location is kind of perfect if you want to feel like you’re staying somewhere real Stuttgarters actually live. You’ve got the U-Bahn close by (Ostendplatz isn’t far), there’s a decent bakery literally across the street for morning coffee, and you can walk to the Neckar when the weather’s nice. It gets pretty quiet at night, which some people love and others find a bit too sleepy – depends what you’re after, I guess. The hotel itself reflects this neighborhood energy; it’s not trying to be the fanciest place in town, but it’s reliable and the rooms facing the street have these big windows that make everything feel more spacious than it actually is. Would I call it amazing? No, but would I book it again when I’m in Stuttgart? Absolutely. Sometimes you just want a place that does what it says it’ll do without any drama.

Early hotels booking in Stuttgart requires advance planning during peak exhibition seasons when visitors flock to see the city’s cutting-edge automotive innovations and cultural performances.

• Almost perfect for an economical one night stopover when travelling by train. – Olivia from United Kingdom – July 26, 2024 (8/10)

  Room had all facilities I needed for a one night stopover, all clean and in good order. And quiet through the night.
  I was a few minutes late for the (rather late) checkin time I had advised, and they phoned to check if I was still coming (i.e. did not just lock the door leaving me outside). Good buffet breakfast (and checkout) available from early until quite late (06:00 to 11:00) so should suit all itineraries.
  
  What could be improved: Construction works at Main Railway Station, which they say have been in progress for years. Make it difficult to find the way out and Google Maps does not know about the latest footpath closures. So it was quite difficult to find the start of route to the hotel as it was getting dark meaning it took (me) about one hour instead of the expected 25 minutes to do the walk – which is uphill although not really too steep. It would have been good to know how to use Bus No. 42 which passed me frequently. Returning to the station in daylight was much easier, as it is all downhill and I found a signposted footpath to Hauptbahnhof that bypasses all the roadworks and construction in station, with steps designed for pushchairs/buggies that almost fit suitcase wheels. Note that the only access to main railway station is at one side, via a very long step-free spiral walkway.

• Very Good – Paul from United States – July 3, 2024 (8/10)

  Easy access
  
  What could be improved: No coffee maker or fridge.
