Categories

Cleanliness
9
Generally described as well maintained with a high cleaning standard (multiple guests explicitly praised the cleaning). Some mentions of carpeted corridors but overall cleanliness is strong.
Service
9.2
Staff repeatedly described as very friendly and attentive (breakfast staff singled out as especially warm). Reception noted as professional though occasionally less warm — overall service is a clear strength.
Location
9
Consistently praised: excellent location near the Alster/lakes, close to restaurants and centre, easy walking access to transport and attractions; roof-bar location also highlighted.
Room Quality
8
Mixed feedback: many guests praised comfortable beds and well-appointed rooms, but there are recurring issues — some rooms are dark, TVs outdated/small, showers without doors causing wet floors, noise from street or courtyard fans, and varied mattress firmness.
Amenities
9
Strong amenities cited: rooftop terrace/roof bar, excellent on-site restaurant, parking garage and pleasant garden seating. Note: rooftop access limited for mobility-impaired guests (elevator ends one floor lower).
Value for Money
7.9
Generally good for the location and offerings, but value is dragged down by specific complaints (notably the €35/night dog fee seen as excessive and occasional comments that parts of the hotel need renovation).
Food and Beverage
8.8
Highly rated restaurant (Da Caio) and excellent breakfast offering and hours; multiple guests praised the food. Minor note: one comment on white wine quality could be improved.
Overall Experience
8.7
Overall very positive — many guests would return, praising location, rooftop and restaurant, and friendly staff. Small shortcomings (room quirks, accessibility, fees) present but do not dominate the stay.

Pros:

Die gute Lage. Der Zimmerservice.

Cons:

Das Zimmer war schon etwas abgewohnt. Im Bad weiße Spritzer rund ums Klo an der Wand. Die Holzanlage im Zimmer hat auch etwas abgenutzt gewirkt. Türrahmen haben Macken.

Preis Leistung beim Frühstück. Cappuccino wurde extra berechnet ,es wurde nicht darauf hingewiesen. Bei so einem hohen Preis für Frühstück sollte es inklusive sein
