Looks even cheaper with the red background... an interior color matching the leather insert on the top of the knob would be a classy detail, but I've only seen the dark leather finish.
Maybe a piano black iknob would be a good combo with most interior colors

totaly HILTON Frankfurt.... brand new and it is totaly nice and modern with underground parking right under.... great restaurant and excellent service.... really one of the best Hilton's ever.

I can't recommend the Marriot and the Le'Meridien, I';ve been both and they are very old, sort of dirty, with old lazy mean staff....

Hilton Frankfurt is the place !

bad news,
there is some major trade fair going on in the city.... therefore the prices are 5x more than usual....
it is about 500USD per double room including breakfast....

sorry for the bad news.... but this will be the same for all the hotels in the town. it is a trade fair town....
so if you really need to stay in Frankfurt those days you better make some reservation right now.
if you will be lucky you might get some 250USD deal I think.......

It depends on your budget and preferences...... or you can get a nice 4star hotel in the frankfurt suburbs....
