A propriedade — Metropolitan
The Metropolitan is a pragmatic, no-fuss three-star in Frankfurt's banking district, a ten-minute walk from Hauptwache. The lobby is all beige marble and brushed steel, functional rather than charming, with a 24-hour desk that processes check-ins like a business transaction. It suits the solo traveller or couple who wants a clean, quiet room within walking distance of the Altstadt and the Messe, and who won't be spending much time inside. The rooms are compact, spotless, and equipped with good blackout curtains — exactly what you need for a one-night city stop.
Crónicas de Frankfurt am Main
Frankfurt am Main began as a Frankish settlement on a ford across the Main river, first documented in 794. It became a free imperial city and the site of imperial elections and coronations, its skyline later rebuilt in the stern, modernist style that earned it the nickname 'Mainhattan' after World War II destroyed 70% of the old town. The Römerberg square was meticulously reconstructed to preserve its medieval character, while the surrounding financial towers give the city a blunt, purposeful energy. Today Frankfurt balances its 'Bankfurt' identity with a powerful arts scene — the Museumsufer on the river's south bank is one of Germany's most important cultural strips, and the city's green spaces and apple-wine taverns keep it grounded in everyday life.
Melhor época para visitar
Guia completo de Frankfurt am Main →Melhores meses
May and September: warm (15–22°C), sunny without heatwave, and most cultural venues fully open without peak August crush. June also works, but can get humid.
Peak / Festival Surge
July–August: summer holidays draw domestic and international tourists, plus the Museumsuferfest in late August draws huge crowds across the riverbanks. Hotel prices can jump 30–50% from baseline, and rooms at the Metropolitan sell out two months ahead.
Orçamento da temporada
April and October: still pleasant (10–18°C), with lower rates and far fewer queues at the Römer and the Städel Museum. October brings the Frankfurt Book Fair (mid-month), which spikes demand for four days — otherwise, it's a quiet, affordable month.
Tempo e embalagem
Frankfurt's climate is continental: July averages 19°C but can spike to 35°C in a heatwave, and sudden thunderstorms are common in late afternoon. Pack layers including a light rain jacket, and always bring a reusable water bottle — the city's tap water is excellent and public fountains are everywhere.
Livro City Briefing — Frankfurt am Main
- The U-Bahn line U5 between Hauptbahnhof and Preungesheim is partially closed for track renewal through to autumn 2026 — check the RMV app for replacement buses if you plan to use that line.
- A new permanent exhibition on Frankfurt's post-war reconstruction has just opened at the Historisches Museum, focusing on the 1950s debate about rebuilding the old town versus embracing modernism.
- The Kleinmarkthalle, the city's central indoor food market, now opens until 8pm on Fridays and Saturdays through summer, with extended hours for the evening street-food pop-ups.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Metropolitan, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Rooms ending in 07 to 15 on floors 4–7 face the inner courtyard; they are significantly quieter than front-facing ones.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms ending in 01–06 on any floor; they overlook the main street (Münchener Strasse) with tram noise from dawn until midnight.
Best views
Top-floor rear-facing rooms (e.g. floor 7, ending 15) have a clear view across the rooftops towards the Messe towers, nothing special but open.
Quietest floors
Floors 5 through 7 are best; higher than that you get more wind hum and less benefit from the courtyard buffer.
🔊 Noise notes
This is a converted office block on a main axis. Trams run on Münchener Strasse from 5am to 1am; street-facing rooms are loud even with windows shut. The lift hums audibly near shaft-end rooms (those with numbers ending 16–20).
Insider tips
If you must have a street view, ask for a room on floor 6 or 7 front (ends 01–03) – the height helps a bit. For absolute quiet, email or call the hotel and request a 'rear courtyard room, high floor'. Avoid booking via third-party sites that don't let you pick a specific room; call direct after booking. The hotel's own breakfast is mediocre – skip it and walk 3 mins to Caféhaus on the corner for better coffee and eggs.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Dinheiro e moeda
Get a travel card →Euro, EUR
Use ATMs for the best rates; avoid exchange bureaus at the airport or Hauptbahnhof as they often add poor rates and fees.
Visa and Mastercard are widely accepted in shops, restaurants, and for public transport; contactless and mobile pay (Apple Pay, Google Pay) are common. Some smaller cafes or markets may still be cash-only, so always carry €20–50.
Round up the bill or add 5–10% at restaurants; taxi drivers expect a euro or two on top; hotel staff appreciate €1–2 per bag or per night for housekeeping.
Comer, Comprar e Viajar em um Orçamento
Cheap car hire →Standard filter coffee or espresso at a bakery-cafe costs around €2.50–3.00.
A Currywurst with fries from a stand or Imbiss is about €5.00–6.00.
A main course in a budget-friendly restaurant (like an Italian or Turkish place) costs around €10.00–14.00.
Head to the Kleinmarkthalle or the food stalls at the Hauptwache for cheap eats; the main train station area has many affordable kebab and currywurst stands.
Aldi, Lidl, Netto, and Rewe are the main discount supermarket chains.
Zalando Outlet and C&A on the Zeil offer decent affordable fashion; second-hand shops and flea markets are good for bargains.
A single day ticket for the entire RMV network (€7.40) covers all trams, buses, and S-Bahn inside Frankfurt. From the airport, a one-way ticket to the city centre costs €5.90, or walk to the S-Bahn station for the same price without surcharge.
Buy a Frankfurt Card for 24 or 48 hours to get free public transport plus discounts on museums and attractions. Eat lunch from a bakery or Imbiss rather than a sit-down restaurant. For groceries, shop at Aldi or Lidl rather than Rewe or Edeka.

Your arrival at Metropolitan
🕒 Check-in is from 15:00. Arriving earlier? Most hotels store luggage free — just ask at reception.
🧭 First things nearby: cash · Nearest — 375 m · ~5 min walk — pharmacy · Leipziger Apotheke — 350 m · ~4 min walk
🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →Vindo ao redor
Find train tickets →Frankfurt Airport (Terminal 1, bus platform B1 outside arrivals) → Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof (main station, then walk 10 mins to hotel)
💡 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)
💡 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)
💡 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)
💡 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
💡 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)
💡 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)
💡 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)
💡 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)
💡 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
💡 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)
💡 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)
💡 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.

Principais atrações em Frankfurt am Main
💡 Skip the €3 tower climb if you're short on time — the view from the Main Tower skyscraper (free rooftop terrace) is better and free.
💡 Go early in the morning (before 9am) to avoid cruise ship crowds and get clear photos of the buildings.
💡 Check their website for free special exhibitions and guided tours in English on the last Saturday — they often include hands-on vintage phone demos.
💡 Go at sunset on a clear day — the glass-walled lift gives a slow ascent. Book tickets online in advance to skip queues.
💡 The free Wednesday afternoon entry is popular; arrive by 3:30pm to queue before the 4pm opening.
