Aloft Stuttgart

Overall, the room was good value for money, but the room showed signs of wear.||Being an American chain, the bed and pillows were American style - so no square European pillows, and a single duvet rather than two separate ones. The genuine king-sized bed (i.e. not two singles pushed together) was very comfortable, and I slept well!||Some parts of the room were starting to age and could use some attention - like a big dirty stain on the sofa, but otherwise it was fine. The windows opened to let in fresh air, and despite facing a busy street, the thick windows kept out all of the noise when closed. I didn’t hear anything from the corridors or neighboring rooms either. The shower took a while to drain which caused the room to flood on the first night, I used a spare towel to mop it up. On my last night, the water struggled to get hot, and I had to turn the temperature fully up to get it warm.||The hotel is mostly surrounded by a shopping mall, with a few average food options. It’s better to head into the city centre, easily accessible from the Stadtbibliothek U-Bahn station located right beneath the hotel. The Chinese Garden is nearby, just a couple of stops on the 44 bus (or a longer uphill walk) and offers great views of the city.||Finding the hotel was a bit tricky. Coming out of the mall, take the exit next to Decathlon, then turn left to find the hotel’s entrance. Alternatively, there’s an elevator from the U-Bahn station, or a ramp you can walk up. It’s about a 10 minute walk from the Hauptbahnhof if you don't want to take the U-Bahn one stop.||Finally, as others have said, there is a free laundry, but only one washer and one dryer are available. These are European so take a while compared to American models - if you use the shorter cycles on the washing machine they won't spin as fast so I recommend turning up the spin speed so they are quicker in the dryer (this is also better for the environment!) or just drying them in your room. Some guidance notes from the hotel would have been good in the laundry too as the machine programs are all written in German.

I recently stayed at Aloft Stuttgart, and while there were positives, some experiences left me disappointed. Location: The hotel’s location is excellent, situated next to the Milaneo shopping center and with easy access to public transport, making it a convenient base for exploring Stuttgart. Rooms: The rooms are functional, clean, and well-designed. The bed was comfortable, and the space was efficiently utilized, creating a pleasant and relaxing environment. Breakfast: Breakfast is simple but good, offering fresh and tasty options to start the day. However, the selection could be more diverse to cater to different preferences. Service: Here’s where the experience fell short. Despite usually booking directly with the hotel to avoid third-party fees and being a loyal customer who brings 30–50 guests annually, my prior conversation about a cancellation was not recalled. Instead, I was told I must pay the cost, which was frustrating. Given my long-standing relationship with the hotel, I expected more recognition and flexibility in handling the situation. Overall: Aloft Stuttgart has a great location, modern rooms, and decent breakfast offerings, but the lack of customer recognition and service flexibility was disappointing. I hope the management improves their approach to loyal customers, as this hotel has the potential to provide a much better experience.

There are two Marriott properties in the city center of Stuttgart - Le Meridien and this one. Le Meridien was great but very challenging to get to due to 10+ years of Central Station construction and this one looks convenient enough (one subwy stop to Stuttgart Hbf and easy to get to all my meeting places) so I decided to give it a try.||Hotel is located right next to the Milaneo Shopping Center where you get off at the Stadtbibliothek subway station, and Aloft is right above the station which you take the elevator up to the street level and you will see the hotel right in front. Reception is at the 2nd floor so for guests who carry heavy luggaes, there are two elevators available at the ground level so there should not be any difficulties getting up. This location is one metro stop from Stuttgart Central Station, so not the most convenient location but it is totally manageble: at least you do not have to walk far and make lots of detour to get to it like the Le Meridian. The proximity to the next door shopping mall on the other hand, is a total plus as you can easily take care of your needs for shopping and dining, with supermarkets, convenient stores, and a huge food court. ||Needless to say, this is a Aloft not the Le Meridien so people should not expect fancy facilities like executive lounge or extra services like concierge or bellman. It is your no-thrill and mostly self-serve basic business hotel. Having said, I found my upgraded room spacious, comfortable and has everything I need. Daily breakfast area (huge space) is provided at the 2nd floor next to the reception, with sufficient amount of food though food item selection is not abundant. There is also laundry room on the 4th floor available for guests' use (1 washer/1 dryer only) and you can purchase detergent pod for 2 euro/piece at the reception.||Overall I would consider my stay at Aloft very pleasant - until Stuttgart Hbf is done with construction (which will most likely take quite a few more years), I will most likely choose to stay here again.||**The only problem with this hotel is, they wrongfully charged me a huge amount of money for a booking I cancelled months ahead of time which I had to file a dispute via credit card bank and am still waiting to hear back from Aloft. So make sure you check your booking or booking cancellation with them upon arrival to avoid incorrect charges.

This newish hotel was very centrally located being just a ten minute walk from the central station. There is the Stadtbibliothek U-Bahn station just outside the main entrance too with good connections for the whole city as well as nearby bus stops. The room was clean and located on a high floor. Tea and coffee provided along with complimentary bottled water. Reception staff very helpful. Lifts fast and efficient.

Clean and comfortable, and a true king bed like in the US, which was a nice comfort. Parking was easy to access below the hotel and the staff were easy to work with. It’s attached to a large mall which was very convenient for shopping and dining if I needed something quick.

I’ve stayed at Aloft Stuttgart for nearly a year working on a military base. Anna-Lina and team was by far the best staff I’ve ever experienced at a hotel. From filing police reports for me, getting me forks whenever I need it, telling me the best restaurants and places in town to experience, decorating my room for my birthday or just someone to fun conversations with… this place felt like home and I’m truly going to miss it. I almost didn’t even want to go back to America. I’m emotionally attached to Aloft and Germany 🇩🇪 forever. This hotel should be five stars. Thank you for your professionalism and your warm atmosphere. I will definitely be back. Also phenomenal room service 👍🏻 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My stay at Aloft Stuttgart was excellent value for the price. I booked a room with breakfast for one night during a business trip, and the experience met my expectations. The receptionist Faruk Eren who welcomed me was exceptionally friendly, and as a Gold Elite member, I was upgraded to a room on a higher floor. The room itself was clean and comfortable. It was quiet, and the king bed were incredibly cozy and comfy—I had a great night’s sleep. The continental breakfast was excellent, offering a wide variety of fresh and delicious options to start the day. The location was great. The subway station is right in front of the door and the main train station is only 1 stop away. The only downside was the condition of the carpets, which had noticeable stains and looked a bit unclean. Additionally, the TV lacked modern streaming options like Netflix or YouTube, and there was no ability to cast content from your phone via WiFi, a feature which is already available at other budget Marriott hotels.

Excellent and efficient staff. Room was well appointed. Shower was free from mold and towels were ok. The only issue is if you arrive on Saturday. The wait to enter the garage is LONG!!!! Once in I'm told they have dedicated parking for the hotel. But the garage and entrance is shared with the shopping center.
