Hotel Am Zoo - A Family-Run Property Next to Frankfurt Zoo with City Views

Located directly across from Frankfurt Zoo in the Ostend district, this Frankfurt am Main hotel has operated as a family business since 1961. The 3-star Hotel Am Zoo houses 79 rooms with 125 beds spread across the main building and an adjoining house. Each bright room features satellite TV, safes, and views of either the zoo or the Frankfurt skyline, with some rooms in the adjoining building offering balconies. The on-site brasserie serves as a bar, breakfast room, and restaurant, offering snacks, salads, pasta, and meat dishes across 50 indoor and 26 terrace seats. A 20-space parking facility is available in the inner courtyard for €14 per night. The Zoo subway station sits directly in front of the property, connecting guests to the fairgrounds, train station, and airport. The Zeil shopping district is a 5-minute walk away, while cultural attractions like the Cathedral of St. Bartholomew are within 0.5 miles.

Pros

Family-operated since 1961, maintaining consistent management

Inner courtyard parking with direct hotel access

Located in the cultural Ostend district near Fritz Rémond Theater and Hafenpark

Walking distance to Berger Straße's cafes and shops

Cons

Limited parking spaces (20 spots) available only upon arrival

Some rooms face the busy zoo area

“Hotel Am Zoo strikes me as a practical choice, situated conveniently near Frankfurt's attractions and public transport, including direct access to the Zoo underground station; its family-run history since 1961 also suggests a personal touch that can be rare. From what I gather, the hotel offers a safe, clean, and affordable base for exploring the city, with the added benefit of in-house dining. It is a straightforward, no-frills option for those prioritizing location and value.”
