Marbach am Neckar Holidays from €265

Cheap and cheerful. Clean enough. Thankfully there was a fan in the room and although not ideal due to the noise, leaving it on all night was a god send. A little noisy but otherwise it would have been too warm. Air conditioning would be good. No fridge or kettle. Arrived late evening and no parking availabile. Had to park about a ten minute walk away which wasn't too bad. Great location to visit the Porsche Museum which was our main reason for visiting Stuttgart.

The service was excellent very attentive and professional, of exceptional note was the service given by apprentice Miriam Wallinger. Miriam was smiling and very helpful all the time and did her very best to look after her Hotel guest.

I expected it to be better but it was tired and very old fashioned The room was fine but staff very average not that welcoming at all. No idea where the spa was as no one told us and the bar area was soulless no atmosphere at all Breakfast looked ok but all the bread and croissants were pre baked rather than fresh from the bakery- Fruit salads looked liked they’d been made up a while ago and the girl serving coffee was as miserable as anything she didn’t smile or welcome us at all. It’s a average hotel definitely not 4*

Was the Amber Hotel until August. Will be refurbished soon. Currently a little outdated but kept very clean with all the usual bathroom complementaries. Friendly helpful staff in all areas. Receptionists fluent in English. Bottle of water each day and silent fridge. Parking outside but there is a charge, and hotel is right on the edge of the central park Window rattled when on latch and building site over the road started at 7.30am so disturbed sleep but not the hotels fault. Breakfast €12 was a wide range of breads, cheese, cereals, etc with cooked eggs, bacon, hash browns. Note that few eateries are open on a Sunday so advise to have the hotel breakfast that morning as the cafes nearby on the main street that do open start after 10am and appear to be frequented only by middle aged men.

The hotel should provide ketty and tea and coffee
