Living very close to Frankfurt, Europe’s hub city, we often get visitors who come to stay with us right here in Oberursel As we are not always able to supply room and board for everyone’s needs, a good list of available hotels in and around the city of Frankfurt is a good thing to have on hand.

Being affiliated with Frankfurt International School as well, we make up a well-traveled international bunch of people with frequent trips between the airport and our home or hotels.

While doing my research for yet another inquiry (when living in the Frankfurt vicinity, you become a valuable source of information…), I came across hotelscombined, which offers over 300 hotels in Frankfurt and its surroundings areas. Well, next time one of my out-of-the-country friends asks me for a hotel recommendation in Frankfurt, I only have to forward them the link. Gone are the days I would have to research the availability of hotels and book the room for visitors. One less secretarial task for me to do…

You can immediately check the cheapest rate available, read reviews about the hotels listed, whereby finding out information you might otherwise not get directly from the hotel.

During my travels I have always been fortunate enough to engage my local friends’ help in finding me a hotel in his/her native language for my next overnight. But if you are not in that position, it is wise to use a search engine. Say, you are in China, speak little or no Chinese at all – you will feel grateful booking your night at a hotel via an English-speaking site.

This site lets you plan ahead from the comfort of your home. Their search engine will have hotels on display for you within seconds. So whether you are on the road or at home, take advantage and let others do the searching.
