Hotel Bonn dengan Kolam Renang

Allow me to proffer a ponderous and perceptive evaluation of the Hilton “Dorint” Bonn hotel, which, alas, now languishes in a lamentable state that belies its once illustrious and exalted standing. The erstwhile grandeur of this establishment, now consigned to a rather decrepit condition, compels me to expound on the profound disparities between its current forlorn state and its erstwhile splendor. In its prime, the Hilton Bonn flourished as an exemplar of refined hospitality, eliciting admiration from guests far and wide. From its imposing façade to the lavishly appointed interiors, the hotel exuded an air of opulence and sophistication that was beyond reproach. The staff, an epitome of decorum and competence, attended to the exigencies of guests with an unfaltering sense of professionalism. However, as time has inexorably marched on, the Dorint, as the Hilton now is, has regrettably witnessed a perceptible diminishment in its overall allure. The corridors and communal areas bear the unmistakable signs of wear and tear, manifesting in faded paintwork, chipped furnishings, and carpeting frayed at the edges. The veneer of elegance once so gloriously enshrined now seems tarnished, and the ambiance has become, dare I say, less than inviting. An ignoble decline has not spared the once-esteemed guest accommodations, once ensconced in luxury, but now beset with signs of neglect. The linens, once crisp and pristine, now betray a palpable weariness. The en-suite facilities, while still functional, evoke a sense of antiquation that a property of this repute should long have eschewed. In recent times, even the culinary offerings seem to have lost their lustre, eliciting a sigh of disappointment from those who recall the hotel's exquisite culinary past with reverence. The inventive menus of yesteryear have been replaced with humdrum and unremarkable fare, bereft of the gastronomic delights that once tantalized the taste buds. Regrettably, the staff, too, have not emerged unscathed from this decline. The once-polished and attentive attendants appear to labour under the burden of reduced resources and seem to lack the finesse and polish they once displayed. This conspicuous shift in the quality of service has emerged as a clear blemish upon the establishment's reputation. In conclusion, the Hilton Bonn, despite its storied history and erstwhile reputation, languishes in a state that can only be described as a sad vestige of its former glory. One cannot help but lament the departure from its once-illustrious past, where it stood as a bastion of luxury and refinement. While one may still find moments of solace amidst the shadows of its grandeur, the undeniable truth remains that the Hilton “Dorint” Bonn hotel has seen better days, and one can only hope for a revitalization that would recapture its former splendor.

We stayed for a couple of nights at the Kameha Grand in Bonn. The location is great for walking and cycling and about 15 mins drive from the centre of Bonn on the other sider of the river. Lots of very safe cycle paths everywhere. Our junior suite was large and very comfortable. Strangely, the mini-bar was empty, but I did not find out why. The styling would not be to everyones taste, but I certainly liked it and the hotel is flooded with light. Breakfast was very good with the usual offerings. We made use of the swimming pool on the 3rd floor in the spa, which was heated and overlooks the Rhine. We found the staff to be extremely friendly, helpful and knowledgeable throughout. We used Uber to get around Bonn, although the service only recently came to Bonn and the service was a bit patchy. Be prepared to wait for longer than you would in bigger cities such as Berlin. We did not try any of the restaurants at the Kameha as we were only there for a short while. If anyone needs a recommendation, try Oscar in der Remise, about 8 minutes away by car. For travellers to Germany, bring cash as the country is still behind the times and a bit analogue. The lovely Rheinlust beer garden about 10mins drive away does not accept any form of credit cards. Some taxi drivers also struggled with electronic payment. Looking forward to returning to the Kameha

Man kann gegen das Hotel nichts sagen. Die 4 Sterne sind berechtigt und das was unser Eindruck für eine 2 tägige Reise geboten wurde, war mehr als Fair. Gegenüber ist ein preiswertes Parkhaus (4,50€ pro Tag) und man ist innerhalb von 6-7 bei einen Rewe und der Innenstadt. Uns hat es nur gestört, dass das Ambiente uns sehr an Krankenhaus erinnert, weil im Hotel auch Langzeitmieten für Senioren, welche gepflegt angeboten werden. Wir sind geschäftlich angereist und würden daher eine andere Lokation wählen. Bei einer Privatenanreise sehr gerne wieder. LG

This Marriott is located near the river, with nie walking paths nearby. It is easy to drive to, on the outskirts of the city of Bonn, and very near a metro station. The parking garage is large and easy to navigate. There are no nearby resturants (other than the overpriced one in the hotel)....a Vapianos and one other place, named ”Different” are the next closest at about a 15-20 minute walk away and no grocery stores close enough to easily walk to. This is our second stay here and in both cases Lieferando orders took FOREVR to get to us and involved lost drivers. We saw two other guest parties having similar delivery issues this stay. The front desk staff are very friendly and professional. Check in and out went smoothly. The executive lounge is spacious and recently renovated. Food and drink offerings and service were less than most Marriotts in Germany. There are only peanuts and gummy candies during the day. Plus water (if someone has refilled it, it was empty almost as often as full), coffee and a soda fountain with Pepsi products. Evening cocktail hour adds juices, wines and beer, NO ice brought in for the sodas (we did flag someone down the first night and ask for it, it was brought about half an hour later, but the staff seem so busy we didn't feel comforatble asking again). Lounge staff never greet guests or offer any service, only come to refill food or drinks in the self serve area or bus tables from time to time. Snacks are defintely that, snacks, most Marriott lounges you can make a light meal out of the offerings, not this one (ironic given how little other meal options are nearby). The main offering was soup nightly (plus a VERY small salad and cheses selection and one meat based starter each night). The soup alternated between cauliflower or potato nightly. The gym is large and a highlight of the property. Lots of equipment and all in good shape. Housekeeping is below expectations. Our room was missed one day, dirty glasses (all placed togehter on one dresser) were never removed (there were 14 at the end of the week), lotion not refilled, etc. However the major cleaning was done, and towels were actually left to be reused when we hung them up, which was nice. There was an ice bucket in the room but the only way to get ice was to call for room service. They really need to add an ice machine to the shop area like so many other marriotts in Germany are doing. The bed was confotable and the room fairly well layed out overall. One final gripe: the TVs are enclosed in a wood frame to keep people from plugging a device into them to stream. OK, I am sure too many people damage TVs doing that, BUT this hotel also fails to offer streaming, or log in options diretcly on the TV, etc. Most any good hotel these days finds a way to let you stream your content on the in room TV and lacking that, plus the only channels available being basic German ones, really felt like somthing was missing. Overall it is more good

I stayed here for Fedcon 2023. It’s a massive hotel, perfectly made for conventions and conferences. My room was nice although it felt a little dated in it’s style. The air-con worked really well and I did love the shower. However there was no kettle or complimentary bottled water which are both standard in most hotels these days. The pillows were also too soft for me but that is a matter of personal preference. I loved the convenience of staying there for the convention. The buffet breakfast and dinners were great in variety and value. Having a water fountain or some sort of access to free water for conference/convention guests would be a great addition to the hotel as it was a really warm weekend and dehydration was a real concern. The vending machines couldn’t cope and the queues for the cafe were often long. You could buy water at reception but €3 per 500ml bottle is extortionate. The staff however were great and I do have to praise the staff attending the toilets all weekend as they were kept to a high standard for the 2000 people at the event the entire time. Overall it is a great hotel, just missing a few bits to make it excellent for me.
