Got back Sunday night, took me 4 days to write this up :sad:
The most AMAZING hotel ever!!!!!
It is worth visiting Germany just for this place!
So here goes, VERY picture heavy so feel free to skip.
We arrived late Friday night, did the Porsche museum on Saturday and the Mercedes museum on the Sunday.
On the Saturday morning/afternoon we had a wonder around the V8 hotel showroom, heavy on old Classic Merc's and McLaren's. Had a McLaren showroom inside the hotel as well as a service centre!
On Sunday Afternoon we popped across the road and spent hours wondering around the old part of the hotel. Now this place was something else...
FRIDAY:
Arrive and have a beer, check out the iced part of the bar where you keep your beer cold....heaven!
View from the bar:
Now the cars begin, the basement:
Mercs, Mercs and MORE Mercs:
Some old racing thingamabob:
A mix of things to come (more tomorrow so stay tuned):
So the next part is censored as we went out to Stuttgart after about 4 beers in the hotel bar.
THE ROOM
We got the Martini room as I wanted to sleep in the Porsche rather than the Mini, even the soap was cool:
