Quick Take: A flashy, Instagram-ready tower that nails the visuals but forgets practicalities like bathroom privacy and drawer space.
Reviewed by @alicia_katharina: I stayed in a corner room at Nhow Frankfurt and the sunset view over the skyline was honestly the highlight of my trip. The design is super bold and colorful, and I loved the free candy bar in the lobby. Breakfast was huge—definitely try the DIY Bloody Marys!
