Hotel Sonne
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
It is worth booking if you are driving, want a good breakfast and need the lowest price among our Bad Homburg picks. Skip it if you want to walk to the sights or if a firm mattress is a priority, since some guests report worn beds.

Hotel Sonne is our Budget pick in Bad Homburg vor der Höhe. It fits drivers, families and travellers on a budget: the property lists free parking, family rooms, a restaurant, a garden and free Wi-Fi.
It is less suited to people who plan to explore on foot, because the sights in our data are a long walk away. Air conditioning is not in the facility list we have, so check this if you travel in warm weather. And if bed quality matters a lot to you, read the guest comments below.
Location and getting around
The address is 3 Landwehrweg. Guests give the location 8.3 out of 10, the weakest score in the data for this hotel.
The Church of the Redeemer is about 2.4 km away, roughly 30 minutes on foot. Saalburg is about 3.8 km (48 minutes) and the Frankfurt Germany Temple about 4.5 km (56 minutes). Those last two are far, so you will need public transport or a taxi. All walking times are straight-line estimates and have not been verified.
Free parking makes a car a practical way to get around from here.
What guests say
The score is 8.0 out of 10 from 601 reviews, joint third among the 4 eligible properties in the sample.
Breakfast earns the warmest comments: a tasty, generous buffet with a good choice of fresh items. Guests also describe the staff as friendly and helpful, with a warm welcome and easy service.
Beds split opinion. Some guests find them large and soft, while others report sagging mattresses and broken slats.
Price and what you get compared with our other picks
The reference price was €114.13 per night. These are reference prices seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 (10 to 12 Nov) for 2 adults in one room, not live quotes. The sample median was €146.61, so Sonne came in 22% below it.
Our Best Value pick, Maritim Hotel Bad Homburg (4 stars, score 8.7), was €152.70 per night. Our Luxury pick, Steigenberger Hotel Bad Homburg (5 stars, score 8.4), was €185. Sonne saves you about €39 per night against the Maritim, but the Maritim scored 0.7 higher.
