Hotel berhampiran Kreuzkirchengemeinde, Kiel

We liked the hotel very much. For travellers who want to use the ferry to Oslo with car, the location is particularly convenient. The hotel has a big garage and is located right in the center of town. Check-in at the hotel was very professional and friendly. The room was exactly like the photos on the website and offered a beautiful view onto the Kieler Förde. The breakfast was very rich. We did not take advantage of the dinner because the rooftop bar and restaurant was closed due to a private event. The only negative point was that we had to log on to the wifi again and again when the computer was switched off. We will gladly come back again.

I spent hours researching hotel options in Kiel (never been, was invited to a birthday party), and wound up in this hotel. No question that the hotel offers the best location for Kiel activities at the best price. They have regular sized rooms and larger rooms facing the waterfront, expect to have each room come with everything you expect in a 4 star hotel. In-house parking available, just about everything worth doing in Kiel can be reached by foot, the ferry boats leave from a pier virtually across the street. If you have the time, definitely take the ferry to Laboe, other side of the harbor bay, where you will find a wide variety of beach front restaurants and shops and the U995 WWII submarine exhibit - above ground, with the price of admission (around $10) you can walk it stern to bow. Anyway, back to the hotel - this is the best option for the money, do not hesitate to book.

Das Hotel liegt sehr gut zu erreichen am rande der Innenstadt, relativ ruhig gelegen. Als Übernachtungsmöglichkeit im Zusammenhang mit einer Kreuzfahrt sehr zu empfehlen, da in wenigen Minuten zu Fuß der Kreuzfahrhafen zu erreichen ist. Auch für Ausflüge in die Stadt ist es gut gelegen. Beim Frühstück ist noch etwas Luft nach oben, da das Hotel zum Besuchszeitpunkt stark besucht war und der Frühstücksraum (im EG gelegen) an ein Ladengeschäft erinnert (langgezogener Raum) Zeitweise gab es Wartezeiten für einen Sitzplatz zum Frühstück. Das Hotel ist noch sehr neu und auch sauber. Die Zimmer sind zweckmäßig, einfach aber modern eingerichtet. Parkmöglichkeiten für PKW sind hier scheinbar Mangelware, konnte aber nicht nachgeprüft werden, da Anreise mit dem Zug.

We had a brief two night stay prior to joining a cruise. The hotel is in the best location for picking up a cruise ship! On arriving in the room I was surprised to find no air con and when I checked my booking and the website it appears that due to the age of the hotel, only some rooms have it. If you want air-con make sure you check the room category carefully before booking. Although August, it was raining across the two days that we were there and with the room being on a high floor and with the windows open at night, the room was cool enough. Comfortable bed and good shower, the hotel offers a good selection of product at breakfast time. We very much enjoyed our brief stay

A very nice and cozy hotel. The room we had, was very satisfying. The hotel staff is very polite and professional. The hotel has a cozy restaurant with very good food, and very friendly staff. There is also a small spa/saunaarea at the hotel, which is textilfree (FKK) and that we find very nice. There was some children in the spaarea beeing a little noisy and adults with bathingsuites, and without the staff saying anything.

Don’t stay here. Both times we have been here it has been excruciatingly painful to say the least. The first time we had the so-called presidential suite and another room for the kids. The presidential suite had a door that didn’t fit properly, dirty windows, filthy cushions on the couches. Old-fashioned furniture that has been badly beaten up and they are charging a premium price for the rooms. With the five of us we had quite a bit of luggage and my wife asked for assistance. Eventually somebody from the bar (refused to give his name but someone at reception said he was from the UAE) ambled up to my wife and said “you want some assistance with a luggage?“. Yes replied my wife. He then looked at her and said “we don’t do that here“ and walked off leaving her to struggle with three small children and a number of large suitcases. Absolutely appalling is the only way it can be described. Just simple good manners would dictate that somebody would help a woman with three children and luggage up some steep stairs and into the lift. Just not too hard thing to do for a young man…. Surely? The bathroom is dirty and smelt of mould. The second visit was no better. We would not have stayed here if it hadn’t already been pre-booked and paid. They managed to completely get the booking wrong and then refused to even try and sort it out in order to make our visit more comfortable. Instead, we end up with a tense and very unhappy situation exacerbated by the extraordinarily rude staff at reception who would not listen to our requests. Strongly recommend you stay away from this place.

Stayed for one night on our way to Norway and can't fault the hotel at all. Very clean, congrats to the housekeeping team! Excellent breakfast with a lot of variety. Attention to detail, as for example there are mirrors with a keyhole in the corridors, where most likely housekeeping is storing their stock. A classy way to hide those storage rooms. Nice touch! Only 'negative', the toilet roll holder is installed somewhat behind the toilet, so not ideal to reach. But now we are just nitpicking..
