IconNo negative experiences
I liked this train connection very much, so I would like to rate it here. The train arrived on time, which pleased me. The accessibility at the station was very good, with sufficient assistance for wheelchair users. The train was very clean and the staff extremely friendly and knowledgeable. The cleanliness on the train and in the toilet was very good. The bistro offer was varied, but a little expensive. The seats were comfortable and the train was equipped with power sockets, which was convenient. The wifi worked perfectly. Overall, a pleasant, albeit price-intensive journey from Frankfurt to Nuremberg.
Advantages
IconVery fast and reliable
Disadvantages
IconNone
The journey from Frankfurt to Nuremberg was overall very pleasant and satisfying. Accessibility at the Frankfurt station and in Nuremberg was well ensured. The train was on time and the staff very friendly. The toilet and bistro were clean and well equipped and accessible. The comfort of the seats was OK, but they could be a bit more comfortable. The cleanliness on the train was acceptable. The wifi worked fine and there were power outlets at the seats. Overall, a solid journey experience.
Advantages
IconComfort Inconvenience
IconPunctuality and efficiency
Disadvantages
IconRestricted socket access
My train journey from Frankfurt to Nuremberg was a wonderful experience that I would like to share. There were many positive aspects that enriched my experience, but also one minor disappointment. Two of the notable positive features, this train journey are: Comfort Inconvenience: the train journey from Frankfurt to Nuremberg was extremely comfortable. The seats were spacious and more ergonomically designed, allowing for a comfortable sitting position. In addition, the carriages were clean and well maintained. I also appreciated the possibility to buy food and drinks on board, which made the journey even more pleasant at night. Punctuality and efficiency: this train service was extremely punctual and efficient. Access was just as scheduled departure time and riding Nuremberg even a few minutes earlier than expected. This allowed me to arrive smoothly and continue with my plans without rushing. The only negative feature I experienced during my trip was: Limited socket access: during my journey I would have liked to charge my electronic devices, but the availability of sockets on the train was limited. This was a bit disappointing, especially for business travellers or travellers who are travelling longer distances and want to use their devices. Despite this minor inconvenience, my overall train journey from Frankfurt to Nuremberg was extremely pleasant. The comfort, punctuality and efficiency of the journey outweighed, by far, the limited availability of power sockets. I would definitely recommend this train route and look forward to my next journey by train.
Advantages
IconEverything super successful
IconFast and reliable
Disadvantages
IconNone
Everything went smoothly with this train connection, I bought my ticket online and was able to pay for it easily with my credit card. My train arrived 5 minutes later, but that was still acceptable. My seat was very comfortable and soft. The toilet was a bit messy, but quite hygienic. There was wifi and a USB port available. The DB staff were very polite. I was quite satisfied with this connection.
Advantages
IconEverything went smoothly
IconFast train connection
Disadvantages
IconActually none
The reservation of this online ticket went smoothly and was fun. I booked a ticket from Frankfurt to Nuremberg with a change from Nuremberg to Hof Hauptbahnhof. The train arrived on time, which was a very positive surprise. It was quiet and clear at the platform. Once on the train, I found a comfortable and spacious seat with a cup holder and a comfortable headrest. The train made a clean and tidy impression, it looked really modern. Also, which I have never seen before, there was a snack machine on the train where you could get sweets and a coffee. The staff were friendly and helpful. The toilet had everything and even had a window for ventilation. Overall, I really enjoyed this train journey and was pleasantly surprised at how everything went without a hitch.
Advantages
IconA fast connection
Disadvantages
IconUnfortunately no contact person on the train
I chose this train connection because my motorway slip road was closed and I had no other option. I downloaded the Deutsche Bahn app, registered and booked a ticket, which worked fine, the train arrived only 5 minutes later, which I think is okay. Unfortunately there was no DB employee who could help me, even during the whole journey I didn't see a single employee. The train looked okay and there were enough seats, which were relatively comfortable. The toilet was a little unclean and smelled unpleasant, there were no paper towels to dry my hands, but there was stable wifi and a power socket right next to me. I sat by the window and could easily distract myself with the scenery during the ride. The ride went smoothly and I reached my destination on time. I think three stars for this train connection is fair.
Advantages
IconSmooth and relaxed
Disadvantages
IconNone
The ride was very relaxed, quiet and pleasant. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Booking the ticket was smooth and quick. The price was within reasonable limits. There was wifi, electricity and a snack bar on the train. You could get a fresh coffee at any time, which was too expensive in my opinion. It was quiet on the train, so you could relax and maybe read a book. The toilet was clean and there was everything you needed to do your business. A journey I am very happy to recommend.
Advantages
IconTimetable
Disadvantages
IconPrice
I can recommend the connection from Frankfurt to Nuremberg. The ICE takes about two and a half hours. The trains are usually on time and you get the connecting trains very well. The Frankfurt train station is not very pleasant for young women travelling alone. You have to take very good care of yourself because there are a lot of drug addicts running around. Of course, they often find themselves on the trains.
