I have been in Mannheim pretty often in the past months and am still looking for a hotel that is OK. So I decided to try the Maritim this time around and will not be going back. As mentioned in some of the earlier reviews, the hotel is old and needs renovation. The room that I was first given was... More

I stayed in Mannheim for a conference in the Rosengarten. The congress centre is just opposite the hotel and it can be the only reason that this hotel survives. My room on the first floor was straight out of the 70s. With dark furniture, brownish bathroom and yellow net curtains. Awful and depressing. There was no hotel owned wi-fi and... More

I visited 30 Jan 2013 - 1 Feb and have tried to write this review a number of times. The current heat wave (it was 27 degrees on Monday 15th April) made me think it is time to add this review. BACKROUND I have stayed here on and off, over the past 13 years and cannot get over the style... More

This hotel is old but well furnished. I had arranged an early check in, but after a long trip I was disappointed at how slow both the check in and also checkout processes were. My room was nice and had a good view of the water tower. The breakfast was ok and the bar area looked nice. My big complaints... More

Part of a business trip with 35 people in the party.The hotel itself is very grand from the outside and has a good position opposite a park with good shopping all around. The check in was very efficient and we were in the rooms very quickly. The rooms were a good size and the bathroom was ok if a bit... More

I arrived earlly, before check-in time. The room wasn't ready, which didn't surprise me. The first diappointment was the reception desk's reaction. They merely said I was too early and to come back at check-in time. They did nothing to accommodate my request. They did not assure me that I would have the first room available or suggest anything to... More

A bit of a curate's egg, I found. It is located really well, and looks very attractive when you walk in. Lots of space and things that glisten like gold. A lovely bar. A view across to the sunrise (if you get one of these rooms). About half the hotel seemed to be filled with workers aged 30 to 40... More

I don't think this hotel has been updated since the 70s. There is an lingering musty odour in the corridors and the rooms, which sometimes seems to turn into a cigarette smoke smell, probably due to the age of the carpet in the hotel. However, despite the smell, the hotel seems clean and the staff are very friendly. The rooms... More

There's a certain charm to the Maritim, but it needs updating. First off, a hotel of this type that will cater to business travelers needs to offer "free" WiFi. I shouldn't have to buy a special 3rd party plan. A second option of WLAN wouldn't even connect and, when I advised the front desk, they said they would call the... More
