Steigenberger Graf Zeppelin Stuttgart · MitteBoth stand in the center, at the edge of the palace gardens and within walking distance of the main station. Both include breakfast for two, a room upgrade subject to availability, and at both the suitespot benefits apply from the first night.
Our travel advisors’ insider tip
Three euros separate these two hotels. So the decision is not made on price – it is made on a single word.
At the Steigenberger Graf Zeppelin Stuttgart the late check-out is guaranteed, until 2 p.m. At the Le Méridien Stuttgart there is one too, subject to availability.
On a business trip that is the difference between a plan and a hope: if you have a meeting at midday and fly in the evening, you can keep your room to the end without having to ask in the morning.
Two further differences point in opposite directions. The Steigenberger Graf Zeppelin Stuttgart brings a hotel credit of 50 € for food and drink if you stay two nights; in the premium suites it is 100 €. The Le Méridien Stuttgart brings the wider choice: 23 room categories against three.
Our advice: for one night with a fixed departure, the Steigenberger; for a longer stay with a particular category in mind, Le Méridien.
Tell our travel advisors when your train or flight leaves. At three euros' difference, that is the only question that counts.
Where to Stay in Stuttgart: the Center Between Station and Palace Gardens
Stuttgart is built around a valley basin, and both hotels in this selection stand down in the center.
From there it is a few minutes to Schlossplatz, to Königstraße and into the palace gardens, which run from the center down to the Neckar. Our recommendation for the short arrival: the Steigenberger Graf Zeppelin Stuttgart. Our recommendation for the wider choice of rooms: the Le Méridien Stuttgart.
For orientation: the Mercedes-Benz Museum stands in Bad Cannstatt across the Neckar, the Porsche Museum in Zuffenhausen to the north; the S-Bahn reaches both. The Wilhelma, zoo and botanical garden in one, lies on the way. And the Stäffele, the public stairways, lead out of the basin up into the hillsides – more than four hundred of them.
Rooms and Suites: The Best Hotels in Stuttgart from the Inside
The best hotels in Stuttgart offer 26 categories between them, and 11 of those are suites.
They are distributed very unevenly, though: 23 of them are at the Le Méridien Stuttgart, three at the Steigenberger Graf Zeppelin Stuttgart.
The floor areas we know come from the Steigenberger Graf Zeppelin Stuttgart: the Executive Suite measures 47 square meters, the Deluxe Room 39 and the Superior Room 26.
On views, the Le Méridien Stuttgart lists categories looking out over the city – which in a basin means across the roofs to the slopes behind.

What a Night in a Luxury Hotel in Stuttgart Costs
The median price is 151 € per night. The Le Méridien Stuttgart costs 150 €, the Steigenberger Graf Zeppelin Stuttgart 153 €.
| Luxury hotel | From | suitespot benefits from |
|---|---|---|
| Le Méridien Stuttgart | 150 € | 1st night |
| Steigenberger Graf Zeppelin Stuttgart | 153 € | 1st night |
When it is at its best: in May, June and September. The seasonal wine taverns up in the vineyards are open and the evenings are long enough for the climb.
When it is inexpensive: in January and February. Those are the weeks with the lowest prices – and the time when the museums are empty.
When to book early: for the Cannstatter Volksfest from late September to mid-October, for the major trade fairs and for the Christmas market. In those weeks the city is booked far in advance, and with two properties that means very early.
And whatever the date: you get the suitespot benefits in January exactly as in September.
How long to stay: two nights – one for the city and the museums, one for the vineyards and the Neckar. From two nights the hotel credit at the Steigenberger Graf Zeppelin Stuttgart is included as well.
You can earn points and status at both hotels: Marriott Bonvoy at the Le Méridien Stuttgart and H Rewards at the Steigenberger Graf Zeppelin Stuttgart.
Cars, Wine and Exclusive Services in a 5-Star Hotel
What our travel advisors arrange most often in Stuttgart is the two-museum day: Mercedes-Benz in Bad Cannstatt in the morning, Porsche in Zuffenhausen in the afternoon. Both sit on the S-Bahn, both tell the same city from two directions – and a stop at the Wilhelma fits in between.

And the food: Maultaschen, which here are also eaten fried; Käsespätzle with fried onions; Zwiebelrostbraten with its gravy; and Trollinger, the red wine you rarely find outside Württemberg.
Both properties include breakfast for two, a room upgrade subject to availability. The Le Méridien Stuttgart adds a welcome gift.
At the Steigenberger Graf Zeppelin Stuttgart two benefits make the difference: the guaranteed late check-out at 2 p.m. – not subject to availability but committed – and a hotel credit of 50 € for food and drink from two nights, 100 € in the premium suites.
