Next to a mosque on the far side of the train station from the Altstadt, the Marco Polo honours its name by naming each room after a world city and adding subtle design accents; 'Madrid', for instance, comes with a toy bull and matador. The decor is cheerful and functional, and the breakfast worth the extra €10.
