Tips for your city trip or weekend trip

Art and culture, shopping, natural treasures and culinary delights: our hotel in Stuttgart is the ideal starting point to discovering and getting to know all facets of the city. Relax in the Höhenpark Killesberg, stroll through the shops in the city centre, take advantage of the healing power of the mineral baths or try delicacies from all over the world in the market hall Stuttgart. To make sure you do not miss any highlights, we have compiled a few tips.

From the Waldhotel Stuttgart, it is only a few minutes’ travel to the television tower, the landmark of the city. From the viewing platform you can have a look over the city before setting off to the city centre. To see the most important sights, a city tour, a guided city tour, or a Segway tour is a good opportunity to take in the sights. A line of the Hop-On-Hop-Off-Tour with open roofed double-decker buses also passes the television tower, so that you can comfortably start your tour from there and go on to sits such as the Schlosspark.

City walks, Segway tours, cable car and rack railway

In the baroque gardens you will find lovely shadowy corners and views of the magnificent facades of the Old and the New Palace. Should you wish to embark on a shopping tour during your city trip or weekend holiday, simply make a small detour through the charming shopping streets.

A bus tour is not right for you? Explore Stuttgart during your city trip with a guided Segway tour, or take part in a themed tour of the city, including tours such as culinary experience tours. Get to know Stuttgart’s unusual means of transport- in Degerloch, close to the Waldhotel Stuttgart, you can take the cable car or the rack railway, called the “Zacke”.

From the Hotel to the market hall or to the mineral baths

One of the special features is the market hall: 33 sales stalls in the Art Nouveau building covering an area of 5000 square metres offer delicacies and international specialities such as bread, cheese, meat and sausages, wines, tea, coffee and sweets.

If you are planning your stay in Stuttgart during the Advent season, we recommend a visit to the Christmas market, which is one of the oldest and largest in Europe. From the beginning of March to the beginning of November, we recommend a visit to the Grabkapelle auf dem Württemberg, which is also known as the “Monument of Eternal Love”.

The mineral baths offer a relaxing retreat at any time of year if you want to take a break from sightseeing and shopping tours. Stuttgart is home to the largest mineral water deposit in Western Europe and has 19 springs, including 13 healing springs. In the three mineral baths – the LEUZE Mineralbad, the MineralBad Cannstatt and the Mineral-Bad Berg – you can swim and bring your body, mind and soul into harmony.

Another highlight, easy to reach from our hotel in Stuttgart, are the Mercedes-Benz Museum and the Porsche Museum. Not only automobile fans will enjoy these museums – all ages and personalities will experience exciting things from the world and the history of motorised locomotion there.

Lovely place to stay if don‘t need to be central

Located in green and airy Degerloch, in a quiet recreational area, we found this the place to relax for a stopover on our trip. Excellent service, spacious rooms, leafy surroundings, friendly staff. It has a restaurant and a bar, so you needn‘t go out unless you want to.
