Hotel Franken

Frankfurt Airport (Terminal 1, bus platform B1 outside arrivals) → Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof (main station, then walk 10 mins to hotel)

20 min · Every 20 minutes (peak hours) · 06:00–22:00

💡 Direct to central station, then cross Kaiserstrasse and walk east 5 mins – hotel is behind the station. Slightly pricier than S-Bahn, but runs later if train schedule ends.

Frankfurt Airport (all terminals, taxi rank outside arrivals) → Le Méridien Parkhotel Frankfurt (Am Kaiserplatz 1)

25 min · On demand (rank or app: mytaxi) · 24/7

💡 Use the free taxi line directly outside Terminal 1 arrivals. Flat-rate to centre is ~35€; add 5€ for luggage. Cash or card accepted.

Frankfurt Airport (Terminal 1, regional train station) → Hauptwache station (5-min walk to hotel)

15 min · Every 15 minutes · 04:00–01:30

💡 Buy a single-ticket RMV 5 tariff zones (4.90€). Hotel is near Hauptwache exit B – walk east along Rossmarkt to Am Hauptbahnhof road.

Frankfurt Airport (Terminal 1, ground level tram stop) → Hauptwache stop (via Festhalle/Messe stop)

30 min · Every 20 minutes · 05:00–00:30

💡 Less crowded than S-Bahn. Alight at Hauptwache and walk 5 mins through Goetheplatz. Same RMV ticket as S-Bahn, but slower – better if you have no luggage.

Frankfurt Airport (Bus Terminal, outside Terminal 1) → Steigenberger Airport Hotel Frankfurt

3 min · Every 20 minutes · 06:00–22:00

💡 The bus stop is just outside Terminal 1, but again, walking takes 5–7 minutes through a heated corridor. Only use this if you physically can't walk with suitcases — otherwise it's unnecessary faff.

Willy-Brandt-Platz (10-min walk from Hauptwache) → The Westin Grand Frankfurt (stop: Freßgass/Goetheplatz)

5 min · Every 10 minutes · 05:00-00:30

💡 Trams are great for a short hop from the city centre. Use the RMV app for live departures. Tickets are valid for any route within the inner district for 1 hour. A day pass for €6.50 saves money if you’ll use it more than twice.

Frankfurt Südbahnhof (south side, platform A) → Kennedy 89 - The Unbound Collection by Hyatt (stop: Kennedyallee)

12 min · Every 10-15 minutes (weekdays 07:00-20:00), every 30 minutes evenings/weekends · 05:00–23:30 (daily, reduced service after 21:00)

💡 This is handy if you're coming from the south side of the city (S-Bahn lines S1, S2, S8, S9 stop at Südbahnhof). Exit bus at Kennedyallee stop – it's right across the street from the hotel. No need to buy a ticket in advance; pay contactless on board (RMV app also works).

Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof (U-Bahn station, lower level) → Kennedy 89 - The Unbound Collection by Hyatt (via Alte Oper station, then 5-min walk)

5 min · Every 5-10 minutes (peak), every 10-15 minutes off-peak · 04:30–01:30 (U4/U5; both run all night Fri/Sat)

💡 No direct U-Bahn to Kennedyallee – get off at Alte Oper (U6/U7) or Eschenheimer Tor (U1/U2/U3/U8) and walk east for 5-7 mins along Bockenheimer Landstrasse or Kennedyallee. Or take U4/U5 to Willy-Brandt-Platz and hop on tram 16/17 for one stop to Kennedyallee (but tram tickets are same price).

Frankfurt Hauptwache (bus stop A) or Konstablerwache → The Westin Grand Frankfurt (stop: Westin Grand/Taunusanlage)

10 min · Every 30 minutes on Fri/Sat nights, hourly Sun-Thu · 01:00-04:30 (night service)

💡 Only useful if you’re out very late and the S-Bahn has stopped. Buy a ticket from the driver (cash or card). The hotel is a 2-min walk from the stop. Check RMV.de for real-time changes.

Frankfurt Airport (Arrivals B/C) → Steigenberger Airport Hotel Frankfurt

5 min · On demand · 24/7

💡 If you're just crossing to the hotel, walk. The Steigenberger is directly connected to Terminal 1 via a covered walkway — taxis are wasted on that short hop unless you have heavy luggage. For longer trips, insist on metered fare.

Frankfurt Airport (FRA) → The Westin Grand Frankfurt (Konrad-Adenauer-Str. 7)

20 min · Available 24/7 from taxi ranks · 24/7

💡 Queue at the official taxi rank outside Arrivals B. Avoid touts inside who overcharge. Pay by card is fine, but confirm before starting the ride.

Frankfurt Airport (Terminal 1 exit B or C) → Kennedy 89 - The Unbound Collection by Hyatt (Kennedyallee 89)

20 min · On demand (rank has cabs continuously, especially 06:00-22:00) · 24/7

💡 Use the official taxi rank outside Terminal 1, Arrivals B or C – ignore any touts inside. Ask for a fixed price if traffic is heavy; otherwise, meter is fine. For return, book via Taxi Frankfurt app or call 069-545045 at least 15 mins ahead.
