The house
Motel OneBook-themed budget lodging
The budget hotel borrows from Frankfurt's printing history, centering daily life around a lobby lounge that doubles as a gin bar.
What it’s good at
Listed
The Altstadt address reflects Frankfurt's publishing history through typography and printing motifs.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Paulskirche and the Römer town hall sit just outside the door in the center of the Altstadt.
The rooms
Rooms are compact and functional, fitted with granite rain showers and collages by Frankfurt artist Hendrik Zimmer above the beds.
At the table
The bar stocks more than 40 regional and national gins beneath illuminated shelves. Mornings bring an organic buffet breakfast.
How it began

The site on the Kornmarkt hosted Frankfurt's first book fair in 1480, centuries before the hotel arrived.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.

The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
