Hotels With a Restaurant Near Frankfurt Hbf
Frankfurt (Main) Hauptbahnhof is one of Germany's busiest rail hubs, with ICE trains across the country and S-Bahn lines to Frankfurt Airport in a few stops. The Bahnhofsviertel around it is known for its mix of international restaurants, and the Main river and the Museumsufer lie a short walk south. The hotels listed here with a restaurant range from the IntercityHotel Frankfurt, a minute from the station with a restaurant and terrace, to Le Méridien Frankfurt, an art nouveau hotel with French cuisine and a beer garden, and the Hotel NH Collection Frankfurt Spin Tower, rated 9.
Frankfurt is Germany's financial centre, home to the European Central Bank and a skyline of towers rare in Europe, and a major trade fair city with the Messe close to the station. The Bahnhofsviertel, between the Hauptbahnhof and the banking district, packs restaurants from many cuisines into a few streets. South of the Main, the Museumsufer lines the riverbank with museums, and Sachsenhausen is known for its apple wine taverns.
Where to stay
Terraces, Beer Gardens and Late Dinners
I would choose a hotel with a restaurant near Frankfurt Hbf when the train schedule decides when I eat: a late ICE from Berlin or Munich, an early flight from Frankfurt Airport, or a trade fair day that ends after the kitchens around the station have filled up. A restaurant downstairs saves a search after a long journey. The listed hotels are mostly practical three- and four-star properties, several with bars, terraces or a spa, and many are pet-friendly.
The IntercityHotel Frankfurt is the most convenient choice, about a minute's walk from the station, with a restaurant, a lounge, a bar and a terrace, rated 8.6 by guests. It is pet-friendly and has parking. The Toyoko Inn Frankfurt Central Station, very close to the station, keeps things simple with a restaurant, a bar and a complimentary breakfast, rated 8. I would book the IntercityHotel for a short stop between two trains, because the restaurant and terrace make an easy evening without leaving the station area, and the platform is only moments away the next morning.
For a more refined dinner, Le Méridien Frankfurt near the station combines art nouveau style with a restaurant serving French cuisine, a beer garden, a spa and a fitness centre, rated 8.4. The Scandic Frankfurt Museumsufer, a high-rise near the museum embankment on the south bank of the Main, has a restaurant, a bar and city views, rated 8.8. The Hotel NH Collection Frankfurt Spin Tower, a four-star with a restaurant, a bar and a business centre, earns the best score here at 9. I would choose one of these when dinner is part of the plan rather than a necessity.
Several hotels keep a restaurant in a straightforward setting. The Leonardo Hotel Frankfurt City Center, very close to the Hauptbahnhof, has a restaurant and a bar and is pet-friendly, rated 8. The Hilton Garden Inn Frankfurt City Centre, a short walk from the station, offers an airy restaurant, a bar and a 24/7 gym, rated 8.2. The Premier Inn Frankfurt City Centre, with sofabeds in some rooms, adds a restaurant and a bar for families. These suit travellers who want dinner on site without paying for a full-service hotel, and the station stays within walking reach.
The Grand Hotel Downtown, a short walk from the station, stands out for its Japanese restaurant and full-service spa, though its rating of 7.2 is the lowest on this list. The ibis Frankfurt Centrum, located opposite the river, has a restaurant, a bar, a business centre and a fitness centre with spa, rated 7.8. My honest note is that the streets right around the station are lively at night and can feel rough to some visitors, so I recommend choosing a hotel with its own restaurant if you arrive late and prefer to stay in for the evening.
A traveler's perspectiveFor a short stop between trains, I would book the IntercityHotel Frankfurt, about a minute from Frankfurt Hbf, with a restaurant, a bar and a terrace. For a better dinner, I would choose Le Méridien Frankfurt for its French cuisine and beer garden. Our advice for a stay with views is the Scandic Frankfurt Museumsufer, rated 8.8, near the museum embankment on the Main.
