ReviewsReviews for the rail journey from Mannheim to Stuttgart

userReviewImage

The customer opinion was acquired via Cimenio. Cimenio incentivises its users for giving an honest opinion and proving the booking with a photo of the travel ticket.
Advantages
IconBoard bistro open
IconStaff friendly
IconSeats comfortable
IconTrain had power sockets and internet
IconIt was very clean throughout the train and toilets
Disadvantages
IconDelay of 35 minutes
The train went straight through from Mannheim to Stuttgart. The journey was very relaxing, especially because the train was not very busy and the passenger compartment was quiet. The train had internet and power sockets, as well as comfortable seats. The cleanliness on the train and in the toilets was also very good. The staff was very friendly and the train had an on-board bistro. The only bad thing about this trip was the delay of 35 minutes. Otherwise very relaxing!
Advantages
IconEasy cancellation of the ticket
IconContactless check-in
IconSufficient space
Disadvantages
IconStable wifi connection
The train journey from Mannheim train station to Stuttgart train station takes a good three quarters of an hour and is therefore faster from station to station than travelling by car. Another advantage over the car is that you can work during the train journey. The contactless check-in via the Deutsche Bahn app ensures undisturbed work during the entire journey. Unfortunately, the wifi connection is not always stable, which is why you often have to resort to mobile data. Unfortunately, the train is often several minutes late due to previous delays. This can have a negative effect on reaching connecting trains.
Advantages
IconPunctual departure and arrival
Iconsuper friendly and helpful staff
IconClean and modern train
Disadvantages
Iconnone
I travelled from Mannheim to Stuttgart. I started the journey with the Deutsche Bahn ICE and was very satisfied. The train arrived before the stated departure time and left on time. The seats were very comfortable and the overall atmosphere was very pleasant. The train was very modern, clean and offered small snacks and drinks in the bistro. The internet on board was surprisingly good and even allowed me to stream videos. The staff on board were super friendly and helpful. A young lady even helped me plan my journey further and explained how to use the right train in Stuttgart to continue my journey. Overall, I can only recommend this trip and would always travel again with the Deutsche Bahn ICE from Mannheim to Stuttgart.
Advantages
IconOn time
IconPleasant climate
Disadvantages
IconPrice very high
I travelled back to Stuttgart from a business trip from Mannheim. The train was very punctual, which I liked a lot. As soon as you got on, you noticed that the air conditioning was on. In this heat, of course, it was a dream. We left on time and arrived in Stuttgart. Thanks to seat reservations, it was of course easy to find a seat. When I make a reservation, I always make sure that I take a table. That way I know I have a socket between the chairs to charge my iPhone. The wifi worked on the route. However, it was very slow. The ticket inspector was very nice and scanned all the tickets very quickly. Overall, it was a very pleasant ride in the heat. Price-wise, the ride was quite expensive. Nevertheless, I always like to travel by train because you simply don't have the stress of driving yourself.
Advantages
IconFast connection
IconHelpful staff
Disadvantages
IconNone
I took the Deutsche Bahn ICE from Mannheim to Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof and would like to report on my experience. The train journey flew by. The train arrived in Mannheim on time and reached Stuttgart main station at the specified time. The seats were very spacious and comfortable with enough legroom and storage space to stow my bags. The wifi on board was very good and I was able to exchange messages with my friends during it. I remember having to use the loo during the journey as I asked a member of staff where I could find one as the one I wanted to use was broken. The nice lady showed me the way and even walked me all the way there. Super nice staff overall and a great ride which I found very enjoyable. An absolute recommendation from me and I would ride this route again and again.
Advantages
IconSimplicity
Disadvantages
IconMany delays
There was wifi and power sockets at every seat on the train, which worked perfectly. The seats are very comfortable, you can adjust them and there is plenty of space. The service in the seating area as well as in the on-board bistro is very friendly and helpful. It is also very clean everywhere, even in the toilets. Unfortunately, the trains are often unpunctual or cancelled altogether. Nevertheless, the price-performance ratio is good.
Advantages
IconEverything a man needs
Disadvantages
IconNone
From Cologne to Ulm past Mannheim and Stuttgart. The journey was very relaxed, quiet and pleasant. The staff was very friendly and approachable. Booking the ticket was smooth and quick. The price was reasonable. There was wifi, electricity and a snack bar on board. You could get a fresh coffee at any time, it was quiet on the train so you could relax and maybe fall asleep. The toilet was clean and there was everything you need. A trip I can recommend.
Advantages
IconPunctual
Disadvantages
IconComfort
In any case, I was pleased that the train was on time. I was not entirely pleased with the lack of comfort. It was quite noisy on the train and also cold. However, I thought the hygiene and cleanliness were excellent. The price-performance ratio is very good.
Advantages
IconFriendly staff
IconCleanliness
IconShort journey duration
Disadvantages
IconNone
The journey from Mannheim to Stuttgart on the ICE couldn't have gone better. The journey took just under 30 minutes, which I found particularly pleasant. The train was clean and well maintained. It also seemed technically mature and was well equipped. I reached my destination on time, which was also pleasing. The service staff on the train were always polite, friendly and open to questions and suggestions.
Advantages
IconClean and comfortable
IconPunctual departure
Disadvantages
IconUnreliable wifi
The train journey from Mannheim to Stuttgart was efficient and mostly pleasant. The departure here was on time, the train was clean and the seats were very comfortable. Great for short journeys. However, the wifi was unreliable, which disrupted the journey. It was also quite crowded in the compartment at times, which made it a bit noisy. On a positive note, the route through the Neckar valley was beautiful.
