Orient at Hauptbahnhof

DB gives the station address as Am Hauptbahnhof 20 and provides a station map and links to lift-status and accessibility information. Check the resources relevant to your route, particularly if an exit or working lift changes the plan.

Inspect two different property addresses

IntercityHotel uses Poststraße 12. Maritim uses Rheinstraße 105 and describes its station proximity on its official overview. Compare entrances on the station plan instead of using “near the station” as a complete set of directions.

Arrange assistance and the last leg

DB recommends registering for mobility assistance and publishes service operating times. Use its current guidance to arrange the support you need. Check the hotel’s entrance and step-free route separately, and arrange onward transport in advance if you need it.

Places and guides

Save the station plan before travelling

DB’s Darmstadt Hbf page provides the station map, live departures and arrivals, lift status and accessibility information. Match the exit to the address on your hotel confirmation. If assistance is essential, use DB’s current registration guidance before the journey.

Compare IntercityHotel at Poststraße 12 with Maritim at Rheinstraße 105. Check the final leg with luggage in mind, then use the destination guides for the trip you will make the next morning.

For an airport arrival, read the Frankfurt Airport transfer guide. For a journey that may end after midnight, arrange the hotel access procedure with the late-arrival checklist.
