"Very nice and quiet room we had. Stayed only one night but if I ever go there again, this is my preferred hotel. Excellent buffet breakfast and the old town is just some hundred meters away. Strong recommendation."

10/10 Excellent
"Great property for a night or two in Lubeck. Right off the main square and next to MarienKirche. Uber can drop off and pick up right at the front door. Only drawbacks are the lack of space for luggage in the rooms and the fact that the church’s bells do ring on the quarter hour all night long. We had our window cracked so that probably made them louder."

"Beautiful location and surroundings, incredibly relaxing place to stay. The family condo we stayed in was really well equipped and you could easily make your own meals. However, the breakfast was highly rated by other guests so we decided to book breakfast here. It was fantastic so very glad we did. Would wholeheartedly recommend!"
