Will they charge you the downtown price?

My reservation is actually at the HGI. :o I'll leave my reservation for now and see what will happen.

We have booked 2 awards at the Hilton Garden Inn Frankfurt Airport in early March 2012 as an award stay.

Hopefully it will be finished then.

When you drive through the motorway it seems to be that the outdoor work is finish on both ^

They have put back the opening yet again: both the Hilton and HGI websites now say they are accepting reservations from June 2012.

They haven't yet cancelled our December reservation, but I assume we'll be back at the Sheraton. :(

Does anyone have any insight into why they can't get their act together?

Website now says 5/1/12, I've got a res for April, I know a long ways away, but wondering what they are going to do.

They is probably not Hilton. They is probably a contractor.

Earlier this month I exchanged emails with the Hilton business development team responsible for the two FRA hotels. The word was that they "still plan for an opening in December, however there is a risk involved that the opening will delay until early 2012."

No idea who/what is behind the delays. Almost everything else in the SQUAIRE complex seemed to be up and running when I was there last month.

Websites are now accepting reservations for February 1, 2012 onwards.

So maybe it will open in June.

Or December.

Or February.

Or tomorrow.

They already tried:

September 2011
October 2011
March 2012
May 2012
June 2012

... not necessarily in that order.

Back in November 2010 they were hoping for March 2011!

IIRC I had a booking for this August and only recently cancelled one for December.

That's why I managed to make a booking during the January sale for December!

Hey guys,

They are going to open SOON, trust me ;) I head down to the breakfast and will post a few pictures I was able to take two or threee weeks back.

OK, just posting the link to my Picasa here. Have to catch a flight to SEA. Hilton Frankfurt Airport

What does SOON mean in German? :rolleyes:

The soft opening SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON, like asap. Expect the Grand Opening on 12/01/2011.
