The Property — Relax Hotel
The Relax Hotel in Stuttgart’s Vaihingen district is a straightforward 3-star business base: clean, efficient and a bit soulless. The lobby is functional rather than welcoming — laminate flooring, a single potted plant, guests mostly on phones. It suits travellers who want a reliable bed and a hot breakfast, not charm or local atmosphere.
Chronicles of Stuttgart
Stuttgart grew from a 10th-century stud farm (Stutengarten) into a medieval Württemberg residence and later an industrial powerhouse, home to Mercedes-Benz and Porsche. Bombed flat in WWII, it rebuilt fast with a Modernist, car-oriented grid that still defines the city centre. Today it balances corporate wealth with a strong cultural scene — opera, theatre, museums — and the largest wine-growing region in Germany right inside the city limits.
Best Time to Visit
Full Stuttgart guide →Best months
May and September: warm enough for beer gardens and the Schlossplatz lawns, but without July’s crowds or August’s humidity. June also works, but can get busy.
Peak / festival surge
June and July are peak due to summer holidays and the Stuttgart Wine Festival (late August-early September). Hotel prices jump 30-50%. Also busy during the Cannstatter Wasen beer festival in late September-October.
Budget shoulder season
April and October offer milder weather, smaller crowds and often 20-30% discounts on room rates. Risk of rain, but fewer tourists.
Weather & packing
Stuttgart sits in a basin, so summer heat often traps humidity — you’ll sweat even in the shade. Pack a light jacket for sudden thunderstorms and comfortable walking shoes; the city is hilly.
Live City Briefing — Stuttgart
- U-Bahn line U6 is partly closed for engineering work until mid-July; use replacement buses between Vaihingen and the city centre.
- The Mercedes-Benz Museum reopens its temporary ‘Legend’ exhibition on 1 July 2026 — book tickets in advance, walk-ins often sell out.
- Stadtbibliothek Stuttgart’s rooftop café is now serving, offering one of the best free views of the Schlossplatz and the new Fernsehturm.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Relax 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) on the north side of the building to minimize street noise from the Landhausstraße 259. These rooms will also be closer to the lift, but the hotel has a relatively small layout, so the distance should be manageable.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the lower floors (1st-3rd) on the south side of the building as they may be more prone to noise from the Wolfgangstrasse 17 and potential street noise from the nearby area.
Best views
Unfortunately, the hotel's address does not offer any notable views, as it is located in a residential area of Stuttgart. However, rooms on the higher floors may offer a glimpse of the surrounding rooftops.
Quietest floors
The 4th to 7th floors are likely to be the quietest in the hotel, given the hotel's layout and the fact that the lift is located on the north side.
🔊 Noise notes
The hotel's location on Landhausstraße 259 means that rooms on the south side may experience noise from the nearby road, particularly during rush hour. Additionally, the hotel's proximity to the Wolfgangstrasse 17 may result in some background noise from the nearby area.
Insider tips
Consider requesting a room with a balcony if you want some fresh air and a slightly better view. If you're driving, be aware that the hotel offers parking, but it may be limited, so it's a good idea to reserve a spot in advance.
- 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
