I'm gonna spend 2 days in Frankfurt next week.
Has anyone been there? Is there anything worthwhile to see?
Thanks, take care

Dunno too much about your age, disposition, marital status, etc., but if you're youngish I'd prolly fk with the downtown Schwimmbad (swimming pool, half indoors, half out, heated iirc,too). It's huge and got a spa and all kinds of stuff to do and is a cool place to just chill. Downtown Frankfurt also boasts some superb avant-garde architecture which is a pleasure just to look at and walk around in and among.
Don't remember any names, but pretty much any German club is a good bet as far as nightlife.

Most people that go to Frankfurt make their way down to the Romer Strasse area. Its an area of great charm where they have historic buildings, restaurants, souvenir shops and a town square they hold events at.
You'll more than likely have this place pointed out to you by anyone in the city since its where everybody goes.

Lufthansa offers free coffee at the airport. That was the best thing about Frankfurt. Sorry.

Just get into a taxi and say "Sachsenhausen", it's an area of the town riddled with bars and clubs
O'Reillys is a cool Irish Bar that has karaoke on weekends and just about everyone in there will know english, then when that place dies down around 3, step outside and scarf down a doner kebab and head about a block away to Cooky's which opens I think around 2 (not the greatest of places but if you're partying all night you can't be too picky)
If it's your cup of tea then FKK is like you guessed pretty much a sauna with hookers, but it'll be somewhat expensive (cab ride, entrance fee, girl charge), if you're looking for a quick lay just head to the red light district. And if you wanna take it down one step you could head to the strip club Pure Platinum.
And of course this being 2+2, Yours Sports Bar used to have a small poker tournament, although I forget what day, and there's a place called Las Vegas in Friedberg (about 25 min. away) that had 5-6 tables and on the weekends there'd be a couple games going. And of course there's the casino in the airport to keep you busy as you're waiting for your departing flight.
