Our overnight in Kröpke Heide was very pleasant. The staff was very friendly & helpful. The only negative point would be that the hotel is a bit dated and looks like it could do with a refresh.

Nice and clean

The room was big and clean. Modern furniture and a good bathroom. The only downside of the room are the pillows on the bed. They are to light like the most hotels do. Normally I bring always me own pillow. Only this night I don’t :(. Except the pillows everything was perfect.

Gutes Hotel mit hilfsbereiten Personal

Ich war an diesem Wochenende das zweite mal in dem Hotel habe unter anderem auch das Schwimmbad und den Fitnessraum genutzt. Wie beim letzten Besuch war das Personal sehr hilfbereit und nett. Das Zimmer hat mir ebenfalls gut gefallen. Diesmal mit Badewanne und separater Toilette, gerade die separate Toilette gefällt mir sehr gut. Habe ich bis jetzt nur einmal in Spanien erlebt. Das Frühstück ist sehr vielfältig und gut. Insgesamt kann ich das Hotel nur empfehlen.
