"This property is developed around a concept similar to Starwood's W Hotels: A central location, a cool street-level lounge and restaurant with lots of non-guest traffic, and nicely-decorated rooms.Bottom line, I did not dislike the place, but did not like it either. I left with the impression that Management cuts corners. Just as an example, as a hotel guest, you're treated like any other patron when trying to secure a place in the lounge or at the restaurant, which can be pretty frustrating at peak hours, as the place is really busy. Staff, while being courteous, is young, probably not too well paid, and clearly under trained. Kitchen staff also looked young and not too experienced (my breakfast omelette was proof). Just as an example, I had 4-5 interactions with the same receptionist over 2 days, and while courteous indeed, she was far from being engaging or make you feel valued as a guest. Not a single smile or warm word.Rooms are nice (they look better on pics than they actually are), but have cheaper mattresses and bed linen, a very poor selection of English TV channels, and a meager, middle-of-the-road selection of amenities in the bathroom. Towels were also sub par.Breakfast is very nicely laid out and displays a good spread in terms of variety, but the quality of food was below par for the price paid.A night at the Syte will set you back around 200 USD, and Mannheim being Mannheim, not Manhattan, the Syte is overpriced for what it is. Probably the result of little competition in town."
All prices are estimates on menu.
Mannheim, known for its grid layout and Baroque palace, offers hearty German cuisine. Try "Sauerbraten" (pot roast) and "Spätzle" (noodles) for a true local flavor.
