1. Maritim Hotel Bellevue Kiel

Düsternbrook

"The suite was truly excellent, the view was beautiful way up above huge trees. The pool was super. I found a lot of peace in this elegant, beautiful 80’s style hotel where the rooms were still big and spacious. A lot of people rate the breakfast highly. It was quite nice but could have had more options. The staff could also be more attentive and polite. It’s the rooms and the view that were beautiful."

Top Düsternbrook Hotel Reviews

IntercityHotel Kiel

8/10 Good

"Great breakfast and easy parking in CAP"

Me and All Hotel Kiel, by Hyatt

10/10 Excellent

"We spent one night in this property while driving around Germany. It is an older property and good for someone traveling. I can't praise the manager enough; he checked us in, helped us get to our room and helped us with parking. We parked in the employee parking because the rest of the hotel's parking was already taken, but the manager made sure that there were no problems. We did not take advantage of the breakfast, bar or fitness area. The hotel is in easy walking distance to the train station, shopping, and nightlife. We were fortunate to have a nice view of the harbor."

Steigenberger Conti Hansa

8/10 Good

"Check in was easy and fast. The desk staff were very nice and helpful. There was a bad smell in the main hallway down to the room elevators, I’m not sure what caused that but it was pretty bad. Our room was pretty clean. The breakfast is expensive but there’s quite a selection. There needs to be more than just one coffee machine, however. The parking garage is a nightmare! Tiny spaces, tight corners, and you had to go through two doors to get to the elevator. Those doors should be changed to automatic opening doors."

Hotel Kiel by Golden Tulip

10/10 Excellent

"The building is impressive with its great lobby (of perhaps faded art deco glamour) of another era. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The hotel is not modern and fancy, but clean and functional. Room was very comfortable. Kiel is spread out and the hotel is a bit far to walk with luggage, as I discovered, but a straight shot to train station and downtown. The terrace in front of lobby was a nice place to sit to enjoy the breezes and chill (it's Kiel!), at least until smokers claim it as their own. The breakfast area is very nice and the breakfast excellent: I highly recommend the breakfast, on its merits, but especially since there are few restaurants nearby."
