TRIED AND TESTED HOTEL

Meliá Frankfurt City

BACKGROUND Meliá Frankfurt City opened in June 2021 and marks the group's fourth property in the city. The hotel is located in the new 45-storey One Forty West Tower.

WHERE IS IT? The hotel is located 15 minutes from the airport, ten minutes from Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof central railway station and ten minutes from the main finance district. The Frankfurt Trade Fair grounds, Messe Frankfurt and Festhalle, are a ten-minute walk away.

WHAT'S IT LIKE? A private side entrance is useful for the hotel's regular stream of VIP guests, while a private underground car park with dedicated lift means VVIP guests can bypass the public altogether. Guests staying in a The Level-category room will be whisked up to the 15th floor Level Lounge for a more personalised check-in experience. This is a chic multipurpose space, with panoramic city views, plus outdoor terrace with heaters.

ROOMS The hotel has 431 rooms in seven categories, plus five accessible rooms. All rooms offer a fairly spacious 25 sqm, and suites start from 36 sqm. What differentiates them is a private outdoor terrace, in-room amenities (such as a coffee machine in The Level rooms) and access to the Level Lounge. All rooms have a window that can open, which coordinates with smart air conditioning.

The rail thing - Why airlines and train companies are partnering to increase options for travellers on short journeys

An intercity flight connection operated by train would have been almost unthinkable in the early 1990s, but in 2024 it will increasingly be the default experience at many European hub airports. European nations have been among the world's leaders in adopting high-speed rail for short-distance trips, along with Asian countries such as Japan and China.

Adventures in Albania - From paranoid dictatorship to dream travel destination, why the Balkan nation is ready for its moment in the sun

Over the past few years, tourism has shot up stratospherically; recent figures from the European Travel Commission show it's grown 86 per cent since 2019. Its GDP per capita has also been increasing, and last year stood at US$8,800, while the average monthly salary is now around 84,000 lek (£704). Foreign direct investment is also on the rise, with countries including Switzerland, Italy, and the Netherlands targeting sectors such as energy, mining, information and real estate to a value of around US$1.5 billion in 2022, according to UNCTAD's World Investment Report. Not bad for a country which used to depend on foreign food aid.
