Have you seen the good news? Good for Americans and not-so-good for Europeans, though. The Euro has dropped significantly in value recently, making summer European trips very appealing and affordable. We just got back from Germany ourselves, and on top of reaping the benefits of better exchange rates, we also blind-booked a hotel for one night in Frankfurt, and majorly scored on the deal.
With a last-minute extra night in the city, we had to make a quick decision for a hotel that would ideally be luxurious, but not too expensive that we'd be traumatized at losing the room charge in case the Iceland volcano threw off our entire trip. Thus, we turned to Hotwire and spotted a 5-star for $105 per night. That's 105 dollars even.
After booking, Hotwire revealed that the property was none other than the very centrally-located Westin Grand, which usually asks upwards of 189 Euro per night. With taxes and fees, our total came to $121—not bad for a European "5-star" hotel. Heck, it's not bad for any hotel. Stay tuned, because tomorrow we'll be bringing you the full review and photo gallery of all the junk inside the Westin Grand Frankfurt's trunk.
