The Property — Premier Inn
A reliably neat, functional Premier Inn at the edge of the city centre, this is a no-nonsense spot for business travellers or budget-conscious tourists. The lobby is clean and modern, with a self-check-in kiosk and a small bar selling German beer and decent coffee. Its biggest draw is a direct U-Bahn connection to the main station, and the price is hard to beat. You’re not here for character; you’re here for a clean, quiet room and a solid breakfast buffet before heading out.
Chronicles of Stuttgart
Stuttgart grew from a 10th-century stud farm (Stutengarten) into the capital of Württemberg, later the post-war industrial heart of Baden-Württemberg. The city centre was heavily rebuilt after Allied bombing, so its architectural mix is pragmatic 1950s modernism alongside a restored 18th-century palace and the striking glass Neue Staatsgalerie. Today Stuttgart is defined by Mercedes-Benz and Porsche – both have huge museums – and a fiercely independent cultural scene with a renowned opera house and ballet. The hillside vineyards that press into the suburbs are a wrinkle most outsiders don’t expect.
Best Time to Visit
Full Stuttgart guide →Best months
May and September – mild temperatures (15–22°C) and low rainfall; crowds are manageable before summer holidays and after the summer rush. Early June works too, before school breaks.
Peak / festival surge
July and August, plus the Cannstatter Volksfest beer festival in late September/October. Hotels double or triple in price, especially during the festival (late Sep). The city is busy with holiday domestic tourists and festival-goers. Prices at Premier Inn can rise 60–80% vs. shoulder season.
Budget shoulder season
April and October. April sees rain and variable temps, but cheaper rooms. October is quieter after the Volksfest ends, weather still pleasant (10–15°C) for sightseeing, and hotel rates drop back to normal.
Weather & packing
Stuttgart sits in a basin, so summer afternoons can hit 30°C while evenings suddenly cool to 14°C. Pack layers: a light jacket or fleece for evenings, plus a rain shell year-round – brief showers are common even in June.
Live City Briefing — Stuttgart
- A key S-Bahn line (S1) through the main station is undergoing weekend closures until at least September 2026 for tunnel repairs; check the VVS app for alternatives.
- The Mercedes-Benz Museum has extended its permanent exhibition with a new 'Design and Future' wing, open from June 2026 – worth an extra hour.
- A major heatwave is forecast for the final weekend of June 2026, with highs near 35°C – the hotel’s air conditioning is reliable but book a room on a lower floor for better cooling.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Premier Inn, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the top floor (third floor) away from the lift. These are furthest from footfall and offer a better chance of quiet.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the first floor, especially those near the lift or stairwell, as they pick up lobby noise and early morning breakfast prep if the dining room is on that level.
Best views
No particular scenic outlook — the hotel is in a suburban commercial area. A room at the rear or side will look over neighbouring buildings or car parks.
Quietest floors
Second and third floors are quieter than the ground floor, which can get traffic from parking and entrance.
🔊 Noise notes
Strohgäustraße is a through road in Weilimdorf, so side-street traffic and early morning deliveries are the main external noise sources. On-site parking spaces are limited — if the car park fills, guests may be directed to Parkhaus Schwaben Galerie, which adds a short walk.
Insider tips
1. Parking on-site costs €12 and has only 20 spaces — arrive before 6pm to secure one, otherwise use Parkhaus Schwaben Galerie (€10 day cap) and save €2. 2. The lift is small and serves all floors — if you have heavy luggage, request a ground-floor room to avoid waiting or squeezing in.
- 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

Top Attractions in Stuttgart
💡 The free collection is in the basement; go straight down the stairs, avoid the paid upper floors. The glass roof gives good city views from inside.
💡 Check out the weekly farmers' market on Saturdays for local produce and a lively atmosphere. Grab a beer at a nearby brewery pub afterwards.
💡 The free section includes works by Beckmann and Schlemmer. Visit on a Wednesday when the entire museum is free after 5pm.
💡 Take the lift to the top for panoramic views over the city. The rooftop terrace closes at dusk, so go late afternoon. It's also a quiet place to sit and read for free.
💡 Head to the top-floor café for a cheap coffee and a view over the rooftops. Free entry on first Sundays of the month for the building itself.
💡 Go on a Wednesday for free general entry, but the special exhibitions still cost extra. The building itself (by James Stirling) is worth a look.
💡 Go on a Wednesday afternoon (closes at 8pm) to avoid queues. The modern wing has an impressive view of the city from its roof terrace.
💡 Stop at the kiosk near the station end for cheap pretzels; it's a local lunch spot for office workers.
