Impressed with the hotel’s professional staff who were consistently helpful. Two staff members - Ella at the front desk and Artigas in the restaurant provided exceptional service. Each went out of their way to make my stay pleasant. They both speak excellent English which helped since my German is limited. The breakfast buffet is excellent and I also enjoyed the pool and hot tub. The hotel is a bit dated but comfortable with good views of the Baltic.

Beautiful spa with amazing facilities. The buffet which was €27 was absolutely delicious and very well priced. The people that work are very helpful and courteous. I don't 5 star often at all and I have reviewed over 200 hotels and resorts but this one deserves the ratings. Be aware though some of the paperwork says 10am checkout but it is actually 11am. Again absolutely wonderful people throughout. Also spa prices for wellness were very reasonable.

Hotel and facilities were great, I loved to poll and the excellent service. I Found only 2 issues, the curtains in the room did not block the sunlight so it was hard to sleep past 6:00am and the shower was a bit small and had some issues with warm and cold water.

Not the same as usual

We stay here every year. This year was a little different because of corona. No breakfast buffet or pool. While I understand that those are requirements I would have liked that info beforehand because the price was still the same. The breakfast was not very well organized. As a guest who has stayed here many times, i know that it is usually better. So lets hope next time we get our breakfast buffet and sauna again.

Oh I do love to be beside the seaside

The hotel was handy walking distance from the main train station. The rear of the hotel faced the sea, and there is the promenade between the hotel and rhe sea. The room which we had faced the waterfront.The room was comfortable, but would have loved to have a kettle in the room. The windows could be opened, which meant a fresh seabreeze in the room which was very nice. The breakfast had a wide selection, and the outdoor dining area overlooked the sea. The hotel probably needs a little cosmetic work, but not to interfere with its overall charm. Stepping into the hotel It feels like a bygone era. The travel card for the local area is handy, taking you as far as Prora on the bus line, and to the kleinbahnhof to catch Rasender Roland through to various highlights on the island, such as Sellin. The pier at Binz is walking distance. The hotel also has 2 restaurants and a bar, as well as an outside bar / cafe which serves until 19:00 (in summer while we were there). Would I stay here again? Yes, I think I would.

Great location

Had a lovely stay here. Right on the Strand promenade and only 2 minutes to the beach. Rooms are very spacious and clean. Would have liked to have had a coffee maker though...early riser here and no coffee unless you went down to the front desk and then it was a bit of a challenge to get the coffee. Room service in the morning doesn't start until 8am. Was a great breakfast upstairs on the 6th floor. Amazing views and the food selection at the buffet was fantastic!

Old hotel needs an update

+ Close to the beach + Friendly staff + Great breakfast - Bathrooms are terribly designed, e.g. bathtub without a shower curtain make it impossible to shower without flooding the floor, separate hot and cold faucets, hot water is almost boiling - Furniture and carpets are worn-out - No parking spot available during our 1-week stay - Worn-out mattresses - Elevators too slow and can't handle high time traffic

Great Location

This hotel has old world charm and does a fantastic breakfast. The pool is nice too and the location right on the beach and near the town centre. Don't stay near Binz pier BTW as they play live music and have a market til late. Great to visit but noisy. Good restaurants near the hotel and there is soooo much to do on the island. We LOVED the tree top walks and the submarine. The beds were not great however too soft, but would not put us off.

Super Lage, nettes Personal. Frühstück sehr gut. Traumhafte Aussicht im Restaurant - dort kam es gelegentlich zu kleineren Verständigungsschwierigkeiten, da das Servicepersonal international besetzt war und teilweise nur eingeschränkte Deutschkenntnisse vorhanden waren. Zu bemängeln ist die Parksituation, ich kann nur jedem der mit Auto anreist, raten, nur mit Parkplatz AM HOTEL zu buchen. Wenn dort keiner verfügbar ist lieber woanders hin. Ansonsten kann es passieren, dass man 300m Fußweg hat oder sogar am Bahnhof parken muss 10 Minuten Fußweg - dort wurden wir direkt wieder hingeschickt nach dem Check in. Unser Zimmer fiel am Anreisetag einem Wasserschaden zum Opfer. Dafür bekamen wir ein leichtes Downgrade aber und als Entschädigung All Inclusive, ein guter Tausch! Spabereich super, 2 Pools, Badeaufsicht etwas ruppig. Design und Einrichtung renovierungsbedürftig: Oma/Opa Stil aus meiner Sicht -stört mich allerdings nicht so sehr. Teppich im Zimmer hatte Flecken, die wohl nicht mehr rauszukriegen sind. Sehr warm im Hotel, im Eingangsbereich See/Pool Klima.

Das Essen war wunderbar. Für Groß und Klein, egal welche Geschmäcker - es war immer etwas zu finden (Halbpension gebucht). Die Möbel im Zimmer haben jedoch schon bessere Tage gesehen und könnten durchaus erneuert werden sowie das Badezimmer. Ansonsten war aber auch vom Service und Personal alles super. Im Generellen waren alle Angestellten sehr freundlich, insbesondere zu unserer Tochter. Wir kommen wieder :)
