Pro

Service

Comfort

Cons

Cleanliness

A long time ago, I took the ICE from Munich to Stuttgart. The service was very, very friendly and helpful, both online when booking and the train staff on the spot. The train ride was also comfortable due to the pleasant noise level in the train. Unfortunately, it was a bit unhygienic and not so clean in the ICE. But we were on time!

Pro

Very pleasant

Cons

None

I can only report positive things about this trip. The journey from Munich to Stuttgart was very pleasant and went smoothly. Unfortunately there was no wifi, but that was not so bad. The seats were pleasantly soft and clean, and the whole train was in good condition. The real thing was also acceptable. All in all, a very pleasant connection that I would gladly repeat and recommend to others.

Pro

Staff

Cleanliness

Cons

Capacity utilisation

The journey from Munich to Stuttgart worked well. The staff were very friendly. The toilets and the rest of the train were kept clean and everything could be used well. Unfortunately, the occupancy rate was very high, so the journey was not quite as relaxed as I had hoped. Nevertheless, despite no seat reservation, I had found a comfortable seat where the journey went by quickly.

Pro

Smooth, pleasant

Cons

None

The reservation went smoothly. I was able to print my ticket immediately, I was able to find the right track quickly thanks to the good signage. The train arrived on time. It was quiet and comfortable on the train. It smelled a bit unpleasant, but that didn't bother me too much. There was quiet music, wifi and also electricity. The toilet was very clean, you could lock yourself in, there was enough soap, disinfectant as well as paper towels and a window in the toilet. The staff was very friendly and helpful. You could get a coffee from a coffee machine during the journey. I was very satisfied with this trip.

Service

Cons

Comfort

Cleanliness

The equipment of the train was good and modern. There was enough space for luggage and the seats were comfortable. There were also power sockets to charge electronic devices, which was very convenient. In terms of comfort, I was a little disappointed. Although the seats were comfortable, there was no option to recline the seat back. This made the long journey a little uncomfortable. The service was friendly and helpful. The staff went out of their way to help us and answer questions during the ride. There was also a small catering offer, but it was limited and a bit expensive. The cleanliness of the train was acceptable, but there were some areas that could be cleaned better. However, the toilets were clean and well equipped. The journey itself was good, although there were some delays. The train arrived in Stuttgart about 15 minutes later than planned, which was a bit annoying. In terms of value for money, I would say that the journey was a bit expensive. The comfort was not as good as I expected and the catering offer was limited and expensive. Overall, I would recommend the train journey from Munich to Stuttgart as the facilities and service would be good. However, the cleanliness could be improved and the comfort was a bit disappointing. The price-performance ratio was average.

The train journey from Munich to Stuttgart was business for me. It was a pleasant experience. The train was clean and comfortable and the seats offered enough legroom. The journey time was also great as the train arrived on time. The scenery along the way was also beautiful and provided a change from working on the PC. It was only a bit noisy as the train was a bit busy. But the toilets were always clean and hygienic. Staff were also top.

Cons

Delay

Overall, I would say that the journey was okay, although unfortunately the train was not quite on time. I had reserved my seat on the train and was glad when I found it. The seat was comfortable and I had enough space for my legs. In addition, the train was quite clean and well air-conditioned, which was very pleasant in the summer heat. Unfortunately, however, the train did not arrive quite on time. We had a delay of about 15 minutes, which was not a big problem for me personally, but might have been annoying for other travellers. Fortunately, the announcements on the train were clear and understandable, so at least we were informed of the reason for the delay. The journey itself was quite pleasant and I was able to relax well. There were plenty of places to stow my luggage and the wifi worked well too. I used the time to do some work and enjoyed the scenery as it whizzed past us. All in all, the train ride from Munich to Stuttgart was okay, even if the train wasn't quite on time. The journey was pleasant and I would probably do it again.

Pro

The ICE journey from Munich to Stuttgart was very good. Comfort was definitely given by the comfortable seats and the friendly staff. The amenities were great, wifi worked without a problem, sockets were available and toilet paper was replenished... Could have been a bit cheaper though.

Pro

Service

Cons

wifi

What I liked about my journey from Munich to Stuttgart was the friendly staff and the good service. Also, the seats were very comfortable and pleasant and it was very clean. Good value for money, but unfortunately the wifi was poor.

Pro

Very fast train connection

Cons

The train was relatively full

The facilities were okay. The wifi worked easily and there was also a power socket. However, it was relatively full, so it was a bit noisy. The service was quite normal, as was the ticket inspector. The cleanliness was also okay, but could be better. The punctuality was quite good. I think the ticket price was a bit expensive for such a short journey within Germany.

Pro

Punctual

Cons

The train journey was very pleasant, my compartment was very quiet. The conductor was very nice and wifi was available. Sockets too. The toilet was clean and didn't smell. The floor was clean and the train was well heated. The price was great and justified.

Pro

Cleanliness

Cons

wifi

The positive aspects of the train journey for me personally were the cleanliness and hygiene, the friendly and helpful staff. The unfortunate thing was that the train was a little late. Otherwise, I can only rate the journey very positively.

Pro

Punctual

I would be lying if I said the journey wasn't perfect. The train was on time, the staff were friendly. I can't even find fault with the wifi. I should also say that great attention was paid to hygiene and cleanliness. As I have nothing but positive things to say about this connection, I can't help but give it 5 stars. I would recommend this train service to anyone without a doubt.

Pro

Good price performance

Cons

None

I was very surprised at how relaxed the journey was, as I often hear people saying that travelling by train is very stressful as trains are often delayed or cancelled, but everything went well for me. The train was on time and the service was satisfactory. But what I like best is the value for money, as it's even better than travelling by car or plane. Based on my experience, I can only recommend it!

Pro

Good wifi

No delays

No change

Cons

Dirty seats and tables

I really enjoyed the train journey because it was very easy to buy the ticket and it wasn't too expensive in terms of value for money. I also liked the fact that the train wasn't late and I didn't have to change trains. I also liked the good internet, which enabled me to watch films. However, I didn't like the fact that the seats were dirty and the tables and seats were uncomfortable.

Pro

The toilet

The staff

Cons

The wifi

This train journey was a very relaxed train journey. My ticket was checked right at the start. I was able to sit down in my seat and enjoy the journey. I did some work during the journey. However, as the wifi was very poor this time, I had to use my own wifi hotspot. When I had to go to the toilet, the first toilet wasn't very clean, so I went to the second one and it was 100 per cent clean. Hygienically 1A. But the journey actually takes about an hour and when I got off the bus, I was said goodbye and it was all very nice
