Trying to figure out where to stay in Stuttgart? Jaz in the City Stuttgart is the answer. It’s classy enough to impress your friends, but not so expensive that you’ll need a second job to pay for it. You’ll look good without feeling bad.
Stuttgart might be famous for its engineering marvels—home to Mercedes-Benz and Porsche—but there’s much more to this city than revving engines.
Picture sprawling vineyards, palatial castles, and a cityscape that mixes modern architecture with rolling hills.
Stuttgart has a knack for blending the sleek with the scenic, and it’s ready to surprise you around every corner. And while you’re out exploring, you’ll want a hotel that’s as unique as the city itself.
These three options aren’t the cheapest around, but they’re my top picks for a memorable stay.
Althoff Hotel am Schlossgarten
Althoff Hotel am Schlossgarten brings elegance right to the edge of Stuttgart’s beautiful Schlossgarten park. Staying here is a bit like being transported into a refined, classical world, but with all the modern comforts (and none of the snootiness). Rooms are plush with a touch of old-world charm, while the large windows let you soak in views of the park below.
If you’re a foodie, the hotel’s Michelin-starred restaurant, Die Zirbelstube, promises a dining experience that’s worth savoring. And when you’re ready to explore, the main train station is just a few steps away, making the Althoff a perfect base for discovering the city’s many sides. See photos of available rooms >>
Jaz in the City Stuttgart
Jaz in the City is the kind of hotel that greets you with personality and doesn’t hold back. Neon lights, bold art, and Bluetooth speakers in every room set the stage for a fun, laid-back stay. It’s located near the bustling Milaneo shopping center, so you’ll have easy access to shops and nightlife if you want to see the city in full swing.
Downstairs, the Rhythms Bar & Kitchen serves up local dishes with a twist, and don’t be surprised to hear a live DJ set while you dine. Jaz in the City is for those who want to soak up Stuttgart’s modern energy without sacrificing comfort. See photos of available rooms >>
Waldhotel Stuttgart
If you crave a bit of fresh air and serenity, Waldhotel Stuttgart is your escape. Perched at the edge of the forest, this hotel offers a cozy retreat that feels worlds away from city life, yet it’s only a short drive from the center. Rooms are styled in soft, natural tones, and the hotel even has hiking trails and a tennis court if you’re up for some outdoor activity.
Breakfast here is a highlight, featuring fresh, locally-sourced ingredients that feel like a little taste of the region. Waldhotel is where you can embrace nature without straying too far from Stuttgart’s vibrant urban energy. See photos of available rooms >>
