Quite good room

We had a very large room, clean, although the floor was very scratched, great location, with a very good restaurant downstairs. However, we were annoyed by the constant contact from the agency beforehand. Plus, I live in Germany, so why is everything described in English?

There's a car ferry service next to the hotel running early to quite late which can be a bit noisy. Not the ferry, but the cars & people embarking, disembarking & queuing.

This Hotel is set right by the river and is so peaceful and scenic. The staff are very friendly and there is a ferry right next to the hotel which is fun to ride just to cross the river and is less than a euro per person.

This is one of the hidden gems in Berlin. Absolutely perfect place, friendly and helpful staff, lots of outdoor activities. Bike rental available and recommended to take a tour of the expansive forests. And a convenient Rewe grocery store walking distance away. We loved our stay and would come back / recommend to anyone.

Diamond in the Ruff

Very surprised and super impressed. This is a family run hotel and restaurant that gives the little extra. The restaurant food was very reasonably priced, great selection and our waiter was in a league of his own. The breakfast was 12€ per person but worth every penny. Scrambled eggs, yogurt cup with granola, cheeses, meats, veggies, orange juice and coffee. The rooms were super clean and beds were comfortable. The rooms had adjustable heating and ample parking. We ate at the restaurant 2 of the 3 nights and night capped with wine, beer and gelato night 3. This view out the back of the hotel makes you feel like you are in the country off the lake. You will not go wrong with this booking and we plan to come back for our 3rd visit to Berlin.

I was surprised how great this place was. It's in a beautiful location on the lakeside. This was a last minute trip so I was desperately looking for somewhere to stay in Berlin. The regular hotels & chains were quoting very high rates £400-£500 a night.

The Location of the hotel is amazing, the hotel is close to down town and like a lake in the nature. The walk way is so nice. The breakfast is so nice and you can ask what you want for breakfast. This is a real Boutiquie hotel. The room was very clean and large..

Wir haben im Mai über Expedia ein Superior Doppelzimmer für 4 Personen im alten Fährhaus für 2 Übernachtungen im September gebucht. Als wir abends zum gebuchten Zeitraum im Hotel ankamen, war erstens die Rezeption seit 14 Uhr nicht besetzt und anstatt dessen sollte man sich telefonisch melden. Der Mitarbeiter am Telefon teilte uns mit, das er unseren Namen nicht auf seiner Buchung findet und kein Zimmer mehr frei hat. Er hat auch keinerlei Anstrengungen unternommen uns ein Alternativhotel oder ähnliches anzubieten. Wir mussten daraufhin am Freitag Abend 3 Stunden lang mehrere Hotels in Berlin abklappern bis wir endlich ein Zimmer für die 2 Nächte bekommen haben. So etwas schlechtes ist uns noch nie passiert. Auch bei der Anfahrt zum Hotel ist dringend darauf zu achten wie Google einen zum Hotel leitet, denn auf der einen Seite der Havel fährt die Fähre nur bis 20 Uhr. Wenn es später wird droht ein Umweg von 50 Minuten.

Wir kamen nach sieben Stunden Fahrt an und es wurde uns gesagt, es sei kein Zimmer frei und ich hätte nicht gebucht. Dies kann ich allerdings mehrfach belegen und war zwei Tage vorher noch mit dem Hotel bzgl. des Check-Ins in Kontakt. Der Mann, mit dem ich sprach wirkte so, als wolle er Ausreden finden und mir die Schuld zuweisen, was in diesem Fall nicht möglich ist. Gestern erhielt ich von Seiten DES HOTELS die Anfrage, den Aufenthalt zu bewerten. Es war definitiv gebucht.
