Hankensbuettel Holidays

Sehr schöne Lage, direkt am Meer.

A truly outstanding property, certainly one of the best along the Baltic coast. Nice that it is medium-sized, with very friendly staff that we soon got to know more closely. It is located right by the beach and with high standards throughout, without being too ritzy. AWESOME cakes at their restaurant! And great they have an electric vehicle charger (for a fee). It's Adults only though.

We wondered why the property had 4 stars. For a German hotel having room cleanup every second day, no to very poor sound isolation between the rooms and finally a single elevator for its 8 floors, I would say it was a three stars hotel in outskirts of the city centre. The roof top restaurant was okey for the panorama view but this is it.

The staff were extremely helpful and engaging at all times. The so-called gym is a room with four pieces of equipment and limited dumbbells (max weight 10 kg). There is no spa as advertised but the saunas and steam plus rest area were excellent. It's a pity that there is no outdoor seating other than a noisy smoking area.

The hotel was nice. Right on the promenade. It rained while we were there but there was a sun room for breakfast which was lovely. The breakfast was good. Rooms very clean and spacious. Parking was definitely an issue. I chatted online about driving in when I first booked. Then called to have a conversation about the stay and again mentioned parking and we had a rental. When we came to check in there was no record of parking. We were lucky the hotel next door was able to offer a spot.
