Rooms remind a little of hostels. Bathrooms are great, spacious and remodeled. Location is right at the end of the pedestrian shopping district so ver convenient. Breakfast was extensive and very good. There are not many great choices in Wiesbaden.

Hotel is in a nice old building but feels a little half finished. Room felt very dated despite clearly being newly decorated. Weird shower which only pointed one way and soaked the floor. Good, free wifi, nice breakfast, didn't use restaurant. Staff friendly and efficient, good central location if you need to be in Wiesbaden. Didn't feel like a Radisson.

I booked services with the spa with two weeks anticipation. A big disappointment! I came with several friends for massages and facial to find out we did not have our promised appointments and they did not have enough personal to satisfy even the hotel customers. I wrote a note to the customer service but they never replied to us. I... More

The Radisson Blu Schwarzer Bock Hotel is a beautiful, historic hotel in lovely Wiesbaden. I found it fascinating that the hotel is older than the United States. The hotel is filled with stunning antiques and while the carpets may be a little worn, they actually added to the charm. The room and all common areas felt clean and the staff... More

Stayed at the Radisson Blu for one night in July 2012- it's a great old world hotel with a long history and has been refurbished. Loved the tour of the interiors, especially the meeting rooms. The Restaurant Maxime has a good spread even for vegetarians. The location is central and you can walk everywhere. Highly recommended.
