Libertine Lindenberg Hotel, Frankfurt
Expert reviews
“The Libertine Lindenberg in the city’s unrushed Alt-Sachsenhausen district is a new, well-priced all-suite hotel that feels genuinely different. It does away with the traditional reception desk – who needs ’em? – and focuses on home-from-home design, hand-made furnishings and a communal living room-cum-cafe. There’s even an in-house recording studio.”
Featured in The Guardian’s 20 great hotels to stay in Germany in 2016.

Beautiful building, stylish decor; not to be missed.
Gorgeous design, thoughtful touches and really interesting vibe. Wonderful communal kitchen area on top floor, would be brilliant for a longish stay. Delicious breakfast with grains, pastries, fruits!
There was no air con and the weather was hot. The windows are very sound proof (and beautiful) but opening them means you hear the lively bars nearby which were noisy.

A great little spot in a lovely location.
Really cute and moody vibe
No air conditioning. But fan in room provided was helpful

The room is really nice and more like a luxury apartment. Comfy big bed and everything very clean. Laundromat in the basement and most facilities you need. This is located in the heart of the pub area in Frankfurt so loud drunk people will be around in the evening. I can just close the window and it's well isolated.. or join them.
No AC and a fridge inside the room would've been nice.

Gorgeous bedroom on busy street
The best bed / comforter / pillows I had while traveling in Europe.
The shower smelled a little moldy. It was on a busy street corner and was really loud with the windows open, but there’s no ac so you need the windows open. It did come with 2 fans though.

Beautiful hotel right in the middle of the action
The location! (if you like the very active bar scene here!) The decor, the colours and textures - beautiful and comforting. The attention to detail. This is a really lovely hotel right across the street from all the action. LOVED the bathroom. Yes, the sink is small and there's not a lot of space to put your toiletries, but I love everything about that bathroom. The water pressure is heavenly. The colours, the wood, the blue towels. Loved the bathroom. The loft style of the room is really unique and has that wow factor. A second chair would have been nice on the main level.
We were there on a hot August Saturday night, so we had to choose between noise and being hot. The open window helped, but the bar scene is loud until about 4 am. The ear plugs that are supplied helped. There was also a remote for the blinds in the skylight, but the window had to be closed for them to work and we couldn't get the window to close. See photos. Also, please fix your keyless entry system. We got a physical key (staff is there 4 pm to 10:30 pm), but he never did get it to work on the app on my (German) phone. And the physical key ... I still don't know how to get it to open the room door. My husband got it after a while. Please get the keyless entry and room entry working reliably and we will stay here again.

Great place to stay, exceptionally kind and welcoming staff, but too noisy all night
Staff extremely helpful and welcoming, generous. We felt very at home there The breakfast was delicious but there was no warning that it would be exclusively vegan.
We stayed Friday and Saturday nights and the small cobbled streets were filled with noisy partying crowds, encouraged by extremely loud music from the bars and restaurants, until after 4 am. Shortly after that the cleaners with their road-sweeping vehicles took over.great

Really stylish hotel in a great location. The room is clean and comfortable, there’s a bath , which isn’t a usual thing, full set of toiletries and some other small items, like free water, bed warmer etc. The staff is mega friendly and helpful. The breakfast was fresh and nice, no matter is was strictly vegan.

Great looking hotel, good location but clarity needed in charging.
Beautifully laid out hotel. Great location and well restored. Good sized rooms and nice features including honesty kitchen. Our mezzanine room looked good but without aircon was too hot overnight.
Mysterious additional €96 charges at checkout that didn’t tally with breakfast. Two of our rooms were fantastic but unfortunately one was a mezzanine with a faulty velux window that kept opening and closing during the night. No air conditioning so very hot when window closes itself Without warning.

Staff were great. Great location, close to downtown. Has a self serve kitchen and store on the top floor.

Very good
The room was very nice, well decorated and the bed was convenient. The staff was very friendly. The hotel is located in a very nice area, with old buildings, and many pubs and restaurants.
The noise from the pubs in the street continues until 3AM. The windows managed to block most of it, but I can still hear the sound of the base heating very loudly

I'll definitely go back, unique and comfy experience
Not your standard hotel well quirky and modern fittings and ambience. Friendly staff with a communal kitchen and ability to use the coffee machine and other 'bar services' on an honor system, which was useful. Like a trip back in time to the good old days.
My room had a shower in the bath and was a bit cumbersome to use with no rail to hang the hand shower on also no curtain so it got a bit messy.

Perfect & amazing stay
Great staff & breakfast. Location perfect to everything you want to see. Bed comfy, spotlessly clean. Room was amazing.
Stairs to the loft in the maisonette narrow & steep. I dealt with them, but if you struggle with stairs, look at a different room.

Rooms too hot, breakfast not fully inclusive
The rooms were a good size, it was clean, staff were friendly and helpful
The rooms were far too hot, no A/c there was a fan in the room, but you could only have it working at either side of the bed so only one person got the breeze! If you opened the windows, at night there was a lot of noise from the 15 or so pubs in the 2 streets opposite the hotel. When it said breakfast included, I (maybe wrongly) assumed there was a restaurant attached (must do more in-depth research), however no restaurant at this hotel. There was a small kitchen in the room, with a hob, that worked. But no cutlery or crockery apart from a couple of pans. They did have a bigger kitchen for guest use on the 5th floor, which had a large array of crockery, cutlery and cookware, but I tend not to go on holiday to cook for myself. Breakfast is fully Vegan. Which is fine as long as you’re not diabetic. Vegan breakfast normally consists of breads, croissants, cereals, jams, fruits, which all are high in carbs, not diabetic friendly, so had to eat breakfast out

Stylish maisonette in a great part of town with an exceptionally comfortable bed.
A sweet little maisonette with stylish touches, a very comfortable bed and lovely views from the second floor skylight. Staff were helpful and spoke great English. The property was well situated near restaurants, cafes and city sights. We would stay again.
The app-based electronic key didn’t work seamlessly. Some tea or coffee in the kitchenette would’ve been appreciated.

Boutique hotel with youth hostel vibe
Staff were very accommodating to change (& free upgrade) our room when the maisonette we had selected was not suitable for us. Stairs to loft would have been difficult in the night so a one-floor room was a big improvement. Bed was very comfortable and room was cute with music references. Loved the location outside of the old town with cobblestone roads, very boutique feeling. Young vibe in the hotel with shared common areas and a vegan breakfast, plus lots of nearby bars.
Nothing to dislike. A bit of a hike to the train (over 30 mins) as we opted to walk but it's along the river and a lovely walk.

I have become a Libertiner - Great Hotel in excellent location
Nothing like a cleverly designed boutique hotel in a good location with great staff to win traveller plaudits! Well Libertine Lindenburg deserves its praise. The hotel staff are excellent - friendly, helpful and also happy to have a chat (which is great if you are travelling alone). The hotel is located in Alt Sachsenhausen - a vibrant section of Frankfurt (plenty of bars, restaurants, bakeries and cafes) which is walking distance to the Old Town (Altstadt), the Museum Sector and main railway station. The rooms are beautiful designed too - I booked the apartment on the fifth floor that was very comfortable and had some wonderful Skyline views. In addition to a relaxing cafe area on the ground floor there is also a very clever communual kitchen on the fifth floor that encourages a sense of Libertine community. No review would be right without mention of the breakfast which although small is a nicely vegan fare (if you are looking for fry-ups, walk away). I was told that the Vegan croissants were the 'best in the world' on arrival and that was not just an empty statement - they were totally delicious!!!
Nothing to dislike! One suggestion would be to broaden the range of drinks available in the cafe to include spirits but that is a very minor idea.

Perfect little getaway for a friends weekend
Lovely little boutique hotel - very central location. Staff was outstanding - would recommend for a trip with friends, as a couple or for business. Not for families. Also can get a bit louder on the weekends as it’s in Alt Sachsenhausen - so lots of bars & clubs nearby
Design, central location, attentiveness of staff

A quaint hotel in a central location.
We were only there for one night. The room was clean and tidy. It had all the amenities that you would need. Location was very central. Love the artwork and the kitchen/hangout on the 5th floor is such a great idea.
The room was a bit small as I was sharing with a friend. The bathroom as great but one small thing...when I turned on the show the handheld shower head was pointed at my face and I didn't realise it so I got soaked. It was funny but housekeeping should really be sure to make sure that doesn't happen. Otherwise it was a good stay.

Great place for liberal souls with deep pockets
Basically everything was very good, as for the price I paid a night (200Eur/night) maybe you would expect something more chick but in general it was a very good located, very functional studio-type room over two floors. The staff is great, the breakfast choice is somewhat reduced, but I guess that's because they are vegan (and was for that breakfast too :) )
Price was a bit over the top and breakfast choice might be a bit bigger, otherwise it was a great stay especially if you are inspired by artistic design style.

Very cute and comfortable stay where I wished I had more time to experience everything it had to offer
Excellent location to see the best Frankfurt has to offer. The bed was as comfortable as it gets. The hotel it self had so many cute details.
Check in made it tricky to get in the room as it works with door codes. We got locked out of the room. The staff helped to sort it out via phone so at the end everything worked nicely

Good location, good rooms, noisy neighborhood, almost non-existent staff.
Location, the bed and the bathroom.
The neighborhood is very, very noisy! In weekends, the noise lasts until 5am.

Charming simple hotel
It is already the 5th or 6th time in this place. It is very conveniently located. Rooms are small and simple but with charm. Bathrooms are also small, but new and very clean. We love the communal kitchen, where we can get snacks, beverages (paid), coffee and tee (free), and if you want, we can cook. Personnel is always super nice. We have never had the breakfast, because we love to walk and explore the city.
In summer, without air conditioning the rooms can get really hot, with the problem that the neighborhood is quite loud. also, getting a parking spot nearby is not for the weak.... even the Parkhouse (Alt-Sachsenhousen) may be full. Better use public transportation

Lovely decorated rooms but the location doesn’t match
The room was nicely decorated and made me feel home instantly. Very lovely!
The location appears to be kind of rough, didn’t feel safe as for a solo female traveller. The checkin wasn’t as seamless as promoted and it was heard reaching staff after 8pm for support since no one was around in person nor answering the phone. Made the check in quite unpleasant.

Beautiful hotel, really excellent service
Beautiful rooms, generous communal spaces, hotel very well equipped with irons etc. for business travel. Truly amazing service; they really went out of their way to help me during my business trip.
The lamp was broken so the desk was dark for work, but I didn't have time to notify them! Simple, yet tasty breakfast, but maybe could have had some cut fruit for the soy yoghurt. Very minor issues only :)

Very good
The concept of the place being a co-living/working space. It’s kind of like a hostel for grown ups with money! It’s a great looking hotel, very clean and well laid out.
I saw one staff member the entire time. It felt very impersonal. The area is definitely suited for a younger crowd. Lots of pubs and bars and it gets loud at times. The hotel provides earplugs for this reason. During the day there isn’t a lot going on. The stairs in the maisonette apartment are very narrow. As a bigger person I really struggled to get up and down them easily. This is something that should be mentioned when booking.

Would recommend this hotel.
Really nice location. It is about a 15 minute walk from the centre and 30 minutes from the main train station. However despite not being in the very centre, it is in another area by lots of bars and restaurants. The staff were really nice. Rooms were very clean and comfortable. We didn’t have breakfast here but I know that they do offer a breakfast. And they have drinks available to buy in their bar/cafe area downstairs.
Nothing.

Loved the location and style of the hotel.
Coffee was good, really didn’t eat breakfast.
Check in , the machine kept asking for a PIN number for our credit card, we don’t have a pin for credit cards in the US, so we had to use a debit card.
