Leonardo Hotel Mainz
Mainz

Pros: Good location. A short walk from the train station. Town is easily accessible through a nearby parking garage elevator next door to the property. Cons: Staff when we arrived was less than friendly. We arrived prior to check in and assisting us felt like an annoyance. Room was warm. Air conditioning did not work. Breakfast was included but underwhelming - cold cuts a bit discolored (as though they had been out the day prior).

This was a walking tour that began at our Hotel. Andreas, our guide, was wonderful. Very knowledgeable and accommodating. He recommended a restaurant at lunch that ended up being closed that day during the lunch hour. We returned at dinner and it was one of the best restaurants of our trip (Hackteufel).
