"Wir haben zu viert (zwei Pärchen) einen fantastischen Urlaub auf diesem wunderschönen Hausboot verbracht. Der Platz ist ideal aufgeteilt: Jedes Pärchen hat einen eigenen Schlafbereich und es gibt einen gemütlichen Wohnbereich zum Essen.Die Ausstattung hat uns vollkommen überzeugt: Küche top eingerichtet, Dusche/WC einwandfrei. Highlights sind die Terrasse und die großen Fenster mit traumhaftem Blick aufs Wasser – man ist mitten in der Natur! Schwimmen kann man direkt vom Boot oder vom nahen...

Top Northern Europe Hotel Reviews

Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was excellent. Ease of transportation to and from airport was very convenient with the courtesy bus that ran every half hour. Very glad we stayed here and away from the city center with it's noisy environment. We choose when to visit the city center by taking the courtesy bus to the airport and hop on the city bus to the city center. Train to other cities and attractions when we wanted. My wife loved the arrangements and we'll do it again."

CABINN Copenhagen

8/10 Good

"Room was well laid out for single visitor. Microwave , fridge, a bath with shower and a single bed were all and everything that I needed. Guy at the desk when I checked in was kind of a jerk but everyone else seemed cool. The message about using the microwave for cooking food only was a little confusing. If they don't want you cooking microwave popcorn because it triggers the smoke alarm and a visit from the fire department they should say that in BLOCK LETTERS. A lot of people I know considered popcorn food."

Park Inn by Radisson Berlin Alexanderplatz

8/10 Good

"Great breakfast You have to keep logging on to the WiFi but it works well You don’t have your room cleaned unless you request it the day before so you can never get a clean on day one Massive hotel but lifts work well V difficult to use the stairs if you want to be fit"

Royal Garden Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I am writing to share that my recent stay at The Royal Garden Hotel was exceptional. Upon my arrival, the staff immediately assisted me with my luggage and accommodated my early arrival by holding my bags until check-in. Throughout my stay, every team member was friendly and attentive. My room was clean and well-appointed. Additionally, I dined at both hotel restaurants, and the food was delicious. The piano bar was also wonderful, with a warm and welcoming staff. I will definitely return to the Royal Garden Hotel for another stay soon. Thank you for providing such outstanding service."

Bluedaws Private Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very basic accommodations,, but perfectly nice. Know what you're getting yourself into. It's very good for the price, but you're not getting top of the line quality. Amenities? No. There room was clean enough, everything was washed, though it showed some wear. The room is extremely basic, it really is just beds and a sink. One small piece of hand soap. No hand towels, no shampoo, no face cloth, etc. The shared bathroom should be a consideration for anyone coming here. It's a single bathroom with a single toilet, and a very small shower with little water pressure. It can be very inconvenient if another guest leaves a mess. There's one floor mat to share with other guests out of the shower. The whole place could do with some renovation. The toilet lid doesn't stay up and crashes down. The toilet doesn't flush every time easily. The TV antenna was completely broken. The shower head is old and doesn't seem in decent condition. The beds are small, not very comfortable and the bunk beds are very noisy, as is the street (and you must leave the window open to get some airflow). Just extremely basic. But the staff is really kind, the breakfast included is perfectly good. If you go in with right expectations, it's a nice stay. But if you expect any amenity or anything beyond a basic bed, you're asking too much for the price."
