Weekend stay

Nice hotel but very old which is also very charming but it needs to be refurbished. Could be maintained better. Nice with kettle, coffee and tea in the room. The bathroom smelled a little bit of fungus and was old. The beds were hard. Nice view and the room was big.

For a property that is almost 300 years old... it is clean, well maintained. But the team running the place make all the difference, they make you feel pampered. A small property with a big heart! Thank you all at Hotel Excellent.

Stairs

The main drawback from this hotel was the lack of an elevator. The check in person was kind enough to carry my suitcase up the stairs to the top floor where my room was located. Room was clean with wifi included. Location on a canal with walking path/park was nice. I did not purchase breakfast.

This is an older charming hotel situated next to the water that surrounds Lubeck. Because of the age of the building, there was no air conditioning. Our room got stuffy at night. We faced a busy street, so did not want traffic noise and kept the door to the balcony closed. I suspect it would be very warm in the heat of summer. But staff were very pleasant and accommodating.

Family trip with a view

Family trip thru Northern Germany. Great location and hotel was nice. Only 11 rooms available and we booked a room for 3 that had a pull out sofa. Room was two larger rooms, excellent view and an older bathroom. The pull out sofa was VERY hard but nicely sized. Several plugs were covered with tape and our access to balcony blocked. Water had no setting between ultra hot and cold but we managed. Location, friend service and view makes up for it all. Their food wasn’t super awesome but their drinks were great and again, sitting right by the water is a huge plus on a warm summer day. They have 2 parking spots only in an alley down the street - so arrange for that early on too!

Mysigt hotell

Litet mysigt hotell nära allt. Rent och trevlig personal. Enda minuset var lite för hård säng och trafikerad gata med mycket trafik. Lite väl dyrt jämförd med standard men vi bokade sent så är nog därför
