Radisson Blu Hotel Karlsruhe

The staff was the highlight of this hotel. Valerie, Adam and Mittell made our stay special. The rooms are very good, clean, with coffee machine, water and a good shower. Breakfast is very good. The hotel is 10 minutes away from Ettlingen, and 20 minutes from Karlruhe, so a car is needed. They have onsite parking at 17 euros/day.

Radisson Blu Hotel Karlsruhe is a place I’ve stayed at more than once – and for good reason. It’s conveniently located outside the city, which makes arriving and leaving super easy when you're on the road. The parking is spacious and safe (for an extra fee, but worth it). The room was spotless, fresh-smelling, and very well maintained. Bedding was high quality, the mattress and pillows were truly comfortable – I slept like a baby. Also, I was pleasantly surprised by the bathroom cosmetics – definitely above average, not your typical “sachet shampoo”. Dinner at the restaurant, however, was a bit of a culinary adventure. The steak was tougher than expected and priced as if it came with a private chef. Luckily, the pumpkin soup saved the evening – thick, aromatic, and genuinely delicious. All in all, this is a reliable and comfortable place to stay with top-notch cleanliness. The restaurant could use a bit of fine-tuning, but everything else was really great.

Location - just over the exit of autobahn Parking space - lot of space for cars to park Room size - decent space for a family View - nice view from the room through the lush green of Black Forest Facilities - decent gym, Sauna, steam etc. corridor - nicely decorated with paintings and pleasant carpet Place to sit for breakfast - enough space to handle the crowd. Coffee machine at reception - nice bonus for people to take away coffee in the morning when you drive into the Black Forest.

Perfect stop point for a long trip from NL to Italy. We arrived late in the evening and left very early in the morning, so our stay was just few hours. However great to refresh and rest few hours in a nice room.

Room was nice, breakfast was just great, and I really appreciated the tea selection. The beddings and towels were visibly clean, there was free water in the room as well as other useful things like water boiler, iron.
