The staff is exceptionally helpful, especially Medi at the front desk. The rooms are clean and free from outside noise. The curtains work perfectly to black out the room at night. The hotel is a good value, even if one is not coming for the automotive scenery, which is also very nice. The three restaurants have something for everyone with good service. Breakfast is a successful combination of German as well as general Western offerings that international customers are accustomed to.

This is more than a hotel. It is a complete experience for those who like cars. The Schumacher museum and the exquisite cars in the exposition are just amazing. As amazing as the three restaurants. I can't wait to return to this amazing hotel.

Not good
I find it hard to understand how this property has a 4 star rating.
Gym was a cupboard.
Rooms only cleaned and refreshed on request.
Aircon barely functioning.
Breakfast overpriced and not good.
Bathrooms poorly equipped.
All of that said, the staff were amazing, so friendly and accommodating.

The car had a holiday!
Really cool place, booked a car suite for the novelty factor, tucked the motor up before bed, and could watch her sleeping soundly from our bed - cool experience, and it didn't dissapoint. Plenty of places to eat, things to do, able to walk around the museum freely - a great stay and round the corner from IKEA and JYSK if you're into your cars and your Mrs likes the homewares!!
