The location is excellent. Next to a shopping mall and 5 minutes walk from the major shopping area. Very friendly and professional staff. Lots of paid parkings around the hotel. Hint: the Cinemaxx parking at Berliner Platz (100m from the hotel) charges only EUR 3.50 per day! Breakfast is really great!!

Niels, Belgium

Location is good, walking distance from center (and restaurants, like Sitenblick and Pfefferkorn), close to subway, etc. The place itself was good, with dedicated rooms available for us boardgamers (we went for the Spiel 2018, the biggest boardgame yearly gathering), and breakfast was OK/good. Staff was very nice.

During our stay the hotel was full (because of the christmas market), resulting in waiting lines for breakfast and check out. The rooms are really hot, for some maybe too hot.

“Very convienient to transport to the convention hall”
- • Business trip

Little things. Only one roll of toilet paper in the bathroom (no second roll even with the first roll low). They were super fast to bring up more when asked, but shouldn't have to ask. Water cups not cleaned day to day (left out where I was using it), makes me wonder if they were cleaned between guests, but I hope so.
Location is very good, near the U11 stop and the Limbecker Platz mall. The U11 goes both to the main station and to the Messe Hall. Beds were pretty comfortable and my room was very spacious. A desk with a powerplug and a chair was nice. I had an end room which was very spacious.

I felt a little exploited by paying €216 for a room that normally would cost €69. I know it's a busy period, but I booked 3 months in advance, and only realized the room was very simple once I was there. So that feels like a little too much, didn't think it was good value for money.
