“Okay”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 September 2008

When you arrive at Bremen airport make your way to the tram station just outside the terminal building. Take the No.6 tram into Bremen town centre and from there catch the number 24 bus from the town centre to the hotel. The bus stops directly outside the hotel. Don't take a taxi from the city - they are over priced and seemed to take longer than the bus.

The hotel itself is situated in the suburbs in very attractive street. Not a lot in the vicinity to be honest - a Lidl supermaket and McDonalds just around the corner. A very attractive entrance and very friendly front desk staff gave a good first impression of the hotel. The room was small but comfortable.

We had dinner at the hotel on our first night. The menu is reasonable although you will struggle if you dont like seafood. Prices are very reasonable however and the food was generally good. The small bar is also very good and reasonably priced. It is fairly pleasant to enjoy a drink in the bar in the evening. The bar is comfortable and the staff are generally very friendly and attentive.

In summary the hotel is fairly basic in terms of the amenities it affords. However it is comfortable and the staff are friendly.

“Great hotel”

We stayed 3 nights in this hotel. The stay was nice, the staff was really helpful and nice. The room was spacy and clean. The hotel is outside of the city center, in peaceful area. Great way to get to know the public tranport system (great bus connection to city centre) and also Bremen outside the city centre. We would recommend the hotel to anybody wishing to have a good night sleep.

“OK, Average quality”

The hotel name is changed to "cruise cafe hotel" maybe under a new management. Stayed there for 3 nights during a business trip. The hotel is far away from city center and other attractions, better have a car and a good map (or a GPS device) as the streets in Bremen are not so easy to navigate.

The room I got was very small, there was not even a proper place to put a suitcase, only a handbag or a small trolly. But it was clean, and the bathroom looks renovated.

There is no coffeemaker and a safe in the room. The service was OK and small problems were fixed promptly. Another pro: excellent breakfast buffet, far above the level I expected from this kind of hotel.

“Not a good experience”

Twice, we were left with not enough towels in the bathroom. Friends we met complained that in the restaurant, they waited 2 hours for their meal. This was because although the hotel was fully booked, the staff levels had not been increased from normal levels. On departure, they tried to charge us for breakfasts we hadn't taken and for use of the mini bar, when we had never used it. Even the basic bill was 20 Euros higher than when booked. Fortunately, I had a print out of the internet booking and paid only the original price. The room was fine, although the TV was ancient and took 20 minutes to warm up if the cleaner had pulled the power plug from the wall. The hotel is too far from the city centre.

“OK for trhe price”

Stayed here for the one night. Had sat nav so was easy to find but could be difficult as it is in the suburbs. Room was spotlessly clean and good beds but furniture a bit dated. Excellent bathroom which seems to have been recently refurbished. Had both bath and an over the bath shower which had excellent power. Not enamoured with meal choice in evening but could not fault the excellent buffet breakfast which had a vast variety. We booked through an agency and paid 64 euros for the room and 13 euros each for breakfast. Plenty of car parking around the hotel but there is a warning at reception advising that there have been recent thefts from cars and asking you to ensure that you left no valuables visible. We encountered no problems and would probably use this hotel again.
