  Wouldn't Recommend!

  25 Jan 2026

  Overall, we cannot recommend this hotel located just outside Stuttgart in Boblingen. We stayed in the "Made in Germany" room and thought it would be a fun hotel for our automotive vacation to visit the Porsche and Mercedes Museums. While the women who worked at the front desk were wonderfully kind, friendly and helpful, the hotel room bed was comfortable, and we enjoyed the playful aspects of the room decor, overall, we cannot recommend staying here. The construction of the hotel part of the building is quite poor. It's as if a bunch of "do-it--yourselfers" who are not familiar with construction built the hotel rooms. The hallway has cheap carpet and the walls were poorly constructed as if someone hastily put up drywall and left it looking unfinished. The room itself where the bed was located was satisfactory; especially as it had windows on two walls, but the wall on which car-related signs and an electric sign were located was a bit sloppy in terms of its arrangement. My husband is an electrician who commented on how the way they did the electric on the wall was not up to code. The few drawers for clothing were beat up. There was dust on the base mouldings.The bathroom was quite depressing. The tile was poorly installed and crooked. The shower and toilet area felt as if someone who didn't know how to do construction built them. The toilet area was also dirty. There was a tiny, inexpensive-looking sink with poor lighting and skimpy, very low-quality towels. The whole area was poorly constructed.Throughout the bathroom area and the hallway leading to the rooms, there were these hatch doors likely so that one could access HVAC and plumbing, but there were so many of them and they looked so cheap; again, making the place appear unfinished.The location is also 30 minutes from the museums, so it makes sense to stay closer to Stuttgart when one's purpose is to visit the museums, and then perhaps take an afternoon to visit the area around the V8 hotel with its high-end car dealerships and car storage facility. (If you do visit Boblingen, we highly recommend a neighborhood Greek restaurant called Gruner Turm.)I owe a debt of gratitude to other Trip Advisor reviewers who mentioned to review the bill carefully when departing as the man at the desk at 6:00am tried to cheat us. He knew we were in a rush, quickly handed me the bill and extended his hand for my credit card. I took the time to read the bill and I noticed that he charged us for an additional night. When I complained, he acted like there was nothing he could do. It wasn't until I showed him on my phone the email from the V8 Hotel which clearly stated the amount we should be charged that he was suddenly able to figure out how to remove the charge for the extra night. (sigh) I felt like he intentionally tried to cheat us. So, for all of the reasons in this email, I cannot recommend this hotel.

  Unique Hotel with lots to see, beautiful rooms and excellent food

  28 Sept 2025

  Booked 2 nights as a surprise for my husband 60th birthday. From booking through to departure, the hotel was so helpful. I opted for a themed room, when my first request was only available on the 2nd night they suggested I could either choose a different one or if I didn’t mind changing rooms have two. Obviously, that seemed the best of both worlds! So we had Grand Prix Originals and Petrol head, both of which were amazing. I also asked if it could be decorated and a birthday cake left. They fulfilled all my requests, even leaving a little half sized bottle of bubbly Both rooms overlooked the Lamborghini garage, an experience in itself. Definitely book the breakfast , the choice just goes on and on from freshly squeezed orange juice, pretzels to pastries, honeycomb fruits and cereal. We also made use of the bar as the setting is awesome, and tried some schnapps amongst other things. A special mention to Daniel on reception who not only didn’t let my surprises slip but super helpful, thoughtful and accommodating with our every request. We used the Strassebahn together to the Porsche museum, factory and to and from airport and found it really easy to navigate.

  Car lovers dream hotel!

  04 May 2025

  What a cool hotel for people who love cars! the room we had was great -- modern, air conditioned and lots of space. Super clean. The decorations were way cool.The location is the old Boblingen airport near the Mercedes factory.A very good breakfast buffet.And all around, the hotel is surrounded by some of coolest car dealers and shops. Porsche, McLaren, Lamborghini, Bentley, Maserati, Ferrari, Harley Davidson, and more!Plenty of good places to eat nearby, near a train station. Staff are very nice and helpful.

  Comfortable and practical for business

  28 Nov 2024

  Room was comfortable; bed, shower, etc good and enough space. When one does not need major breakfast, there is a large bakery in 3 mins walk; just across the entry of the train station. Also in 3 mins, one can find a beer brewery for a good beer and food. Note: the entry of the parking garage is same as the one for Porsche; easy to miss the sign.
