Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Elha Hotel, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the higher floors (above 5th floor) for a quieter stay. This hotel is located on Ulmerstrasse, a busy street in Stuttgart, and the higher floors are likely to be further away from the street noise. Additionally, rooms on the higher floors may have a better view of the surrounding cityscape.
Rooms to avoid
Rooms on the lower floors (1st-3rd floor) might be noisier due to the proximity to the street and potential noise from the service entrance. Rooms near the lift may also be noisier due to the constant door opening and closing.
Best views
Rooms with a view of the city may be available on the higher floors, but the hotel's orientation and surrounding buildings may limit the view.
Quietest floors
5th floor and above
🔊 Noise notes
Street noise from Ulmerstrasse may be an issue, especially on the lower floors. Additionally, the hotel's proximity to the service entrance and lift may generate some background noise.
Insider tips
Book a room with a view to make the most of Stuttgart's skyline. While the views may not be breathtaking, it's a lovely way to enjoy the city. If you're driving, consider parking in one of the nearby underground car parks instead of the hotel's parking lot. It may be cheaper and more convenient.
- 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
