The hotel is a bit out of the way, a good 10 min walk from a train station in a suburb immediately to the northwest of Frankfurt proper. The train to the city center (Hauptwache) takes 16 min from the station.
There are a bunch of big businesses which moved there to avoid the high excise/business taxes in Frankfurt (again, HH calls this Frankfurt but it is actually not in Frankfurt, but Eschborn). The HH's customers are mostly East Asian and South Asian business travellers which work for (or at) Deutsche Boerse, LG Germany, or the like.
The rooms are not new but well-maintained. Bedding is a bit soft for my taste. You get a kitchenette--it seems I got unlucky repeatedly with smelly fridge or kettle (items were optically clean, though).
Breakfast is mediocre. If you visit the trade fair, it is not a terrible option as the train passes by there before going to the city center. Other than that, it's okay to pick up a Hyatt night or two if you don't mind there's nothing of interest in the immediate vincity.
Globalists usually receive a fruit basket. They've also taken a soft drink off my bill once or twice.
