ibis budget Karlsruhe - Karlsruhe

It is my favourite hotel in Germany when travelling north. Due to many visits everything is very familiar! Access, restaurants nearby, petrol station nearby before hitting the road again in the morning.
Very good hotel organisation and cleanliness. Extra tip: Ask for a room in higher floors, away from the lift. I guess it is a bit more quiet. A big thank you to the manager couple for their faithful serving over so many years !

The hotel itself is adequate for a one night stop off, room was clean. The main downside of our stay was the male receptionist, we were a party of 5 motorbikers that had ridden in torrential rain and thunderstorms, when we arrived at the hotel the receptionist was rude to say the least, almost hostile! He would definitely benefit from a customer relations corse!

We have been initially 50% charged for a breakfast fees for kids age 2 and 5 (adults its 11.5) and later got money back after employee consulted the manager

overall location of hotel is good near to highway, a grocerry store and gas station within 200-300 meters

we booked 2 rooms for 3 adults and 2 kids

I stayed here Thurs 26th June for one night, on the way to my grandma's funeral. The man who did the check-in was sexist and quite horrible. He told me the room number (503) and said it was on the 4th floor - I was a bit unsure if I had heard him correctly so I said "4th floor or 5th floor?" To which he replied "typical women - always contradicting you". I was very taken aback and apologised and then clarified that I wasn't contradicting, I was just clarifying because in most hotels rooms with 500 numbers are on the 5th floor. To this he replied "are we married?", so I said "no..." And then he said "well then why are you arguing with me as if we are".
After that I didn't say anything and let my sister do the rest of the talking.
At no point was I rude to him or arguing with him - I was totally shocked and confused that someone thinks it's acceptable to talk to women in this way in 2025.
I can see lots of other reviews on here complaining about a male receptionist, and assume it's the same person.

The actual hotel is fine - very basic for the cost, but the rooms were clean enough. And the location is very convenient when you're traveling somewhere else.

I would avoid this place though just based on the way that this man treats customers. I definitely won't be using this hotel again.

This is a picturesque hotel from the Accor and Ibis chain! The hotel is very well located for those who are passing through or who will also be working in the area! The room is small but it is the ideal size for two or three people! The room was adapted to have a double bed and a bunk bed, so it can accommodate a couple with children! The double bed is small, but comfortable to spend the night in! The shower space is small but the shower is wonderful, with hot water and perfectly adjustable temperature and positioning! It has its own enclosed space with a toilet, which allows one person to use it while another person takes a shower. A good breakfast, in a beautiful and peaceful space! Polite, friendly and competent staff always serve you with a smile! A place to be used by families, couples, friends and also alone! A hotel with a strategic location! Thank you!

This is a solid place for an overnight stop, as long as you know what you're getting. Rooms are small, sink next to the bed, as is the shower box, and the small room with the toilet near the door.
The bed is not very big but great for one person (if you're not small people it's a little tight for two), but the room is clean, access is 24/7 (but with an automatic check-in so make sure you get the codes), and they only charge €10 for a dog. Location is easy off the highway and there is a nice park to let the pooch run (and swim!) only 12 minutes away by car, which is great if your dog is spending long hours in the car.
I'll use it again when I travel solo - if we're two people I'll probably search for something more comfortable.

Very good value budget hotel. Rooms were clean and quiet. Staff were friendly and helpful on arrival. | This is a no frills hotel, our view is the hotel is somewhere we sleep so that's all we need . A good bed comfortable room with all the facilities. It's not somewhere to sit around getting fleeced on the price of a glass of coke.

Super simple, very outdated but clean hotel. If you just want to sleep and shower it’s good. Do not expect anything more. I keep booking it as I don’t expect more. Expensive hotel for what you get though. People working there are good and nice people. Do NOT go to the diner next to it, horrible food over there!
