This hotel is a little off the cycle way, but situated at the edge of Lindau old town, which is the most charming part. Checking in went fine, though the owner had played that dangerous game of emailing important codes and instructions on the day of arrival to people whose mobile reception was poor and who weren't making it a priority to check the phone as they cycled. However, happily, he turned up when we did at and all was well. There were cycle racks outside the hotel. The room and ensuite were very spacious , the room was clean and AC was provided. Breakfast was included and more than acceptable, though the coffee won’t be winning awards. This a well located hotel, a comfortable room, but a touch of chaos in the public areas, and how staff spoke to each other. A previous reviewer said it looked nothing like the photos and I agree, especially around the untidy reception area and there was a touch of “ Fawlty Towers” to the experience .However , as breakfast was included , it was value for money .

Great bathroom and AC!!! Not as picturesque as the site, we were expecting a water view but it wasn’t near the water, otherwise it was fine, clean, parking across the street, very nice breakfast.

Not the best service.
Nobody was really there at the front desk, so if you need anything then forget it. They gave me a smaller/cheaper room than what I paid for but, I couldn't find anyone to complain to. Very brief & hurried instructions. Parking is at least a 15 minute walk, so forget about parking close. You could probably find a better deal, with a better location, and more friendly staff. I wouldn't stay here again.

Just passing through the area an overnight stop
My wife an I arrived early evening, the hotel staff/owners were friendly and welcoming. The general cleanliness is lacking, our room for two was completely Inadequate with just enough room for a double bed that was fitted into one corner of the room so no access to both sides of the bed, the bathroom was so small two people would not fit into it, some black mould & grime in the shower not nice. I was Subdued by the price and the pictures on the website, the reality is somewhat different. Maybe we were unlucky. We had prepaid for the room with breakfast but didn't eat breakfast because of the cleanliness issue. Value for Money (No) the location is very pleasant.

Smallest room ever, but OK
This was definitely the smallest "double" room I've ever stayed in--including the bathroom it had to be less than 100 square feet (10 x 10). But it was the cheapest thing on the island--but still overpriced. I would recommend staying on the mainland and just walking over the bridge. The breakfast was actually pretty good and the staff was friendly enough. Unfortunately, there is also construction going on across the street. While it stops at night, they left bright lights on all night. Thus, we couldn't open the room to any air and it got extremely stuffy because there is no air conditioning. Unfortunately, I don't understand why these hotels don't provide fans in the rooms when there is no AC. A little desk fan would have been all that is needed for the air to move and be comfortable. Although we were there during the summer, it was only 83 degrees during the day--but when you have a room with no air movement, that's enough to make it stuffy.

Disaster!
I rated this hotel poorly because I had a confirmed reservation through Expedia and when I got to the hotel I was told there were no rooms available. It may be a very nice hotel, but my experience was a nightmare!!

Overpriced hotel, parking is not entirely free
We stayed at the Seerose Hotel during a long trip throughout Europe, and by comparison, this one was hugely overpriced. Our shower head was broken and the room and breakfast were very plain for the price. It was a decent stay, but not a good value for our money. The worst part is that it states that parking is free, and that is a half truth. It is paid starting at 8am so you have to get up early in the morning, go outside (in our case, in freezing temperature) to put coins in the meter, which would be understandable if previously explained but the reservation says "free" and that is just not true. It is within walking distance from the lake and the town so that is a plus.

Pricy matchbox
The room was extremely tiny, the "double bed" consisted of two tiny, well-used mattresses, one narrower than the other. We could understand every word of other guests talking in the rooms next to and above ours. The towels and sheets were old and showing it. The blanket was too thin, forcing us to turn on the radiator all night. Breakfast was inedible. Due to a construction site it was difficult to drive to the hotel to unload. The nearest parking lot was a 20-minute walk along a heavily trafficked road. Quite expensive considering the poor quality of everything.

Misleading amenities, poor service
The "free" parking was a quarter mile away and not free. The man at the front desk the following morning was very rude and made us check out early because he had other properties he had to clean (I'm sorry our stay was such an inconvenience). Our room also smelled like a smoker had previously used the room, so that was disgusting. Lindau was nice, however this hotel really soured that portion of our trip.

Relaxing stay and excellent value.
I really enjoyed staying at this hotel. It was very relaxing and quiet. I had an excellent night sleep and I would recommend staying there. One thing I really liked was this hotel gave you a lot of towels in the room and the towels were large! Free internet and free breakfast were both very good.

Location was great -- within walking distance to entire historic center of Lindau Island. Staff was business friendly. Room was small (not unexpected in Europe) with little natural light and extremely hot (mid September). No A/C and no ceiling fans, not even a stand-by fan!! Complimentary breakfast was quite nice but milk was sour. INTERNET WAS NOT FUNCTIONING AT ALL. HOTEL STAFF REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT OTHER THAN CALL A TECHNICIAN THE NEXT DAY. This caused major late night problems and expenses. I believe that a hotel that advertises Internet availability should not take this feature lightly and be held accountable for consequential damages.

Great Price, Clean Room and Good Breakfast
The location was good but it is a small island so everything is close. The staff did not have very good english but were very nice and gave a cash discount when checking out. The parking is free which is great on a congested island. No frills room but plenty big and clean. I would stay here again.

Good value for a family room
Seerose was a good option for us for an overnight stay for our family. Their foud-bed room had a sofa for our kids and a queen bed for us in a separate room. It's not a fancy hotel, but it was clean, functional, and comfortable enough. The breakfast was good. WiFi worked well. The hotel is in a good location, a short taxi ride from the train station, probably walking distance for some. It is not a luxurious hotel, but I feel it was a good value for the price, and it served our purpose.

Good value for the money!
We stayed on the bottom floor which was not a problem. The room and bathroom were a nice size and clean. The breakfast was good. The hotel is located a short distance from the main walking streets and restaurants. Construction was going on across the street but they stopped at dark and did not start back early in the morning. The manager gave us a cash discount when we checked out which was not expected. Overall it was a good value for the money and I would stay at this hotel again.

Terrible service and over-priced! Avoid!!
Hotel is conveniently located in Lindau but the staff are rude and unhelpful. There was a lady who checked us in who did nothing more than give us the key and show us the room. She could not give us any information about parking and the advertised free parking on hotels.com did not exist. The car park opposite the hotel was free overnight but charged 1.60 euro/hour from 8am. The next morning at check-out, there was another man who took our key and complained about giving us a receipt. When asked if he would mind storing our luggage for a few hours, he just told us to leave it in the main corridor without even paying attention to how many pieces we had or what our luggage looked like. The place was also over-priced for what it offered. There are plenty of other options available that I would definitely use next time.

Our room is in the basement. It's actually not a guest room but more like a storeroom. Unpleasant smell, dirt on bed sheet, I cannot sleep at all as I felt itchy when lying on the bed. Thought of leaving the hotel immediately, but it has charged me 99 Euro. Terrible experience!

Room in the basement
The hotel is nicely located on the actual Lindau island. Breakfast and staff is ok. But... we were put into a basement room with two tiny windows that were at the same height as the outside pavement and barely let any light in. The whole room was tiled and there was a drain in the floor. It clearly was some kind of washing facility before it was converted into a room by simply placing some beds in there. Not at all what I expect from a decently priced hotel!
