The hotel is quite nice for a HGI. Internet is free for all guests and the hotel itself is new and modern, which is a rare thing in Stuttgart. Rooms are pretty small, especially if you consider the steep pricing. But I guess that's what comes with the Daimler proximity and hotel prices in Stuttgart in general. I have been a frequent guest in the last couple of years and have been quite satisfied with the hotel, even though the bread in the morning is terrible and breakfast quality and selection is a joke compared to the cheaper Moevenpick hotels at the airport. Front desk and restaurant staff are very friendly. They do have a small spa with two saunas and a steam bath along with small gym. Avoid the restaurant Palm Beach right next to the hotel. Food is terrible! The hotel restaurant is OK and continuously improving but very expensive. Food selection is small. If you do not have a car you are pretty stuck and have to use the expensive Stuttgart taxis. There is a bus that goes to the Cannstadt train station and from there you can take the train to the city center. Takes about 20-30 minutes I would guess. Taxi takes 5-10 minutes.
