The best thing about this hotel is the location, within walking distance of the main rail station and also ideally placed to get into the centre of town. We went there for the Christmas markets and this was a 10 minute walk away.
We had read that it was near the red light district but it is in fact a couple of blocks away. I felt perfectly safe walking back at night.
The rooms are clean and appear to be freshly decorated.
We asked for a non-smoking room, but clearly there had been smokers in there at some time, as it reeked of stale smoke.
We had rooms at the front, and it was still noisy despite the double glazing, so would not advise a trip in summer.
The staff are pleasant enough, although not terribly friendly.
The breakfast was very good, although very busy on a Saturday morning, and we had to wait for a table, which are quite crammed together.
Despite the website advertising breakfast until 11am, this was not the case, and finishes at 10am which is obviously a very busy time.

I had just been to Munich where I stayed in a lovely hotel and was in Frankfurt to work the next day, so this was a one night experience only. I am happy it was really, photographs may look okay but there is a strangely depressing atmosphere in the hotel.

The rooms look like they have been refurnished in the last few months but certainly in number 66 some of the guests have not treated them well, mine had torn curtains. The pillows were really huge fat things that hurt your neck so I made something to sleep on using some bedding.

The area is full of sex shops and kebab houses but is not too far a walk from the main train station. The lady at breakfast seemed really nice. So there you go, if you need somewhere to stay for 85 Euros a night that is reasonably clean you could do much worse but like me you may feel a bit creeped out by the atmosphere.

I have stayed at the Memphis a couple of times both in single and double rooms. Whilst the single room was quite small, the double room was a reasonable size compared to other hotels in a similar price-range.

The rooms are spotlessly clean and reasonably new with mini-bar, cable tv, comfortable beds with nice linen and breakfast included. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

The location is greatly for travelling as it is only a ocuple of blocks from the haubtbahnof and S & U Bahs and ten minutes walk to the "Old Town" or Musums.

I will definitely stay there again when I'm in Frankfurt.

I stayed at the Memphis Hotel for two nights. The hotel is very modern, the rooms were basic, but VERY clean and comfortable. For the money I paid to stay here I was pleasently suprised. My rate included breakfast which is served between 7am - 11am. Typical contintenal style, cereals, selection of breads, meats, fruit and pastries. I found the service in the hotel typically German, i.e. brisk and efficient. The location couldn't have been better, although the road from the main station down to the hotel is a bit grubby, however on the other side of the hotel towards Willy Brandt Platz is fine. The hotel is ideally situated near the trams lines 11 and 12, and U bahn. To be honest I didn't use them much, as you can walk to the old area of Romer, the riverside and the main shopping/eating area of Zeil from the hotel 20 mins max. If you want a place to stay for a couple of nights then this hotel is ideal. I would stay here again.
