Achat Hotel Egelsbach is situated in an industrial area, so the surroundings aren’t super. Despite that it is a rather nice hotel, but definitely not 4-star. It is quiet and peaceful, the room was clean but the bathroom a little dated. - We have stayed in 3-star hotels that would compete with this hotel. No air-con and clean towels only on request. The main issues for us were: - the lighting. There were only two possibilities, either ALL lights were on or they were off. One of us prefer to read in bed, often rather late, but this was not possible because then the other half could not sleep as all lights had to be on. We have never experienced such a system before. And yes, we checked with the reception, but there was nothing to do about it. - the bathroom. You had to get into the bathtub to shower. Not very modern and definitely not for us, as we are older and getting into a bathtub is difficult and rather dangerous as you easily can slip. - the breakfast: There weren’t many guests but that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t get full service, especially considering the price of the breakfast. There were only very small plates, no proper plates. No brewed tea, just teabags and hot water. Two sorts of juice. There were just a few pieces of every item, for example (over an hour before the breakfast time was over), there was one slice of tomato left and this was in August (when there are huge amounts of affordable tomatoes around). And they didn’t fill up with anything. The staff spoke only German so asking for something was not an alternative for us. – I highly recommend for those in charge of the breakfast a visit to a 3-star hotel in Scandinavia belonging, for example, to the Scandic-chain in any small town. You might get ideas how to improve yours. We did not use the restaurant in the evenings so can’t comment on that. There are quite a few steps from the street, so if you have mobility issues, the place is not convenient for you. We will probably not return to Achat.
