Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Krehl's Linde, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 2nd or 3rd floor at the front of the building, facing the street. These floors are above the ground-level hubbub but still within the lift's reach, and the front rooms catch the morning light without being directly over the car park.
Rooms to avoid
Skip any room in the rear wing. The historic building has stairs-only access there, which is a pain with luggage, and they can feel cramped and dark. Also avoid ground-floor rooms near the main entrance—noise from the foyer and street filters in.
Best views
For the best view, request a front-facing room on the 3rd or 4th floor. You'll look out over Obere Waiblinger Straße, with a glimpse of the city skyline and the hills beyond. The rear wing offers only a courtyard or neighbouring buildings, nothing special.
Quietest floors
Floors 2 through 4 are the quietest. The lift covers them all, so you avoid street-level noise but aren't too high (no upper-floor issues). The 4th floor is slightly quieter as fewer guests pass by.
🔊 Noise notes
Obere Waiblinger Straße is a main road with steady traffic, especially at rush hour. The front rooms have double glazing (common in German 3-star hotels), but keep windows closed at night. The on-site car park adds some early morning and evening noise from cars, and the lift is moderate—guests chatting in the hallway is the main disturbance.
Insider tips
1. Park on the street for free after 6pm until 9am (check signs)—the hotel's 18€ is steep, and the Königstraße car park costs 2€ per hour during the day. 2. The hotel's free WiFi is capped at 500 MB per day, so download offline maps or stream at low quality—for heavy data use, buy a cheap local SIM at the Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof.
- 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
