TOP Messehotel Europe, Stuttgart

Advantages: Great city
Disadvantages: It's far from here lol

...I recently spent 8 days in Stuttgart as part of an exchange, and really loved the city and all it had to offer. Most of what I loved about it was the other towns and places that they had in the area, which I will talk about in more detail below. *Stuttgart town centre* To be honest, I didn't spend a great deal of time in Stuttgart itself, although I did spend a long time in one of the many Starbucks they had. The main shopping street, Koenigstrasse, had many German shops as well as internationally known ones such as H&M, along with a handful of restaurants. I went to the art museum one day, which was right in the middle of town and easy to get to, and really enjoyed it. *Transport* One thing that really impressed me about Stuttgart was the public transport and how clean and reliable it was.

Advantages: nice city, nice surroundings
Disadvantages: the dialect of the people, but if you don't know German anyway, why bother

When I visited, I used the train system, which I was extremely impressed with. The station is located directly beneath the terminal making it very quick and ash to catch. There are currently two lines (S-Bahns S3 and S2) which both go to the centre where you can connect with the general German rail network. The last train of the night leaves at 00:25 after which you would have to catch a taxi... Read review
