Fodor's Expert Review Steigenberger Airport Hotel Frankfurt

The sylvan beauty of this family-friendly hotel is surprising, considering that it's just a half mile from the airport and connected to it by a steady stream of shuttle buses that operate 24 hours. It's right on the edge of the city forest out of which the airport was carved, and has lots of paths for hiking, running, and biking (the hotel rents bikes), plus a 250-year-old forest house that is now a hotel restaurant. There's also a lobby bar and a rooftop terrace with a spectacular view of the airport and the Frankfurt skyline.
