We had made a reservation for a room in this hotel, but after taking a look at our room we left, or rather fled the place. According to the elevator´s license plate, the hotel has probably been built in 1969, and according to what we saw in our room, not a single thing has been changed or replaced since then. The furniture and bathroom looked like authentic early 70s; nobody prepared us for this, and paying some 80 EUR a night for that smelly room seemed like a rather cruel joke.
So, if you really want to know what travelling has been like in 1970, don´t miss out on the Meran Hotel. To all others, I would urgently recommend the Novotel or the Mercure Hotels for your stays in Saarbruecken.
