Reviews for Hotel Excelsior
Review 1:The room doesn't have a mini bar, not even to keep a cold water to drink at night.
Review 2:Very nice hotel, close to the main train station, and a few minutes walking from the city center. Bed and shower were very good. The room was very clean and quiet too. Another positive point was the breakfast, which was excellent. Staff very friendly. Overall, the hotel was a good surprise.
Review 3:Nice room. Bigger than expected. Quiet even though it's situated in front of the city bus station. Everything went smooth. Large variety and good quality breakfast. All facilities nearby. Just a ten minutes walk to city centre. Recommended.
Review 4:Excellent breakfast, beautiful Christmas decorations. Friendly staff, lovely view from our window. Good situation close to the train station and the town.
Review 5:No bad experience but there was a lack of parking places. Would have been good if we could hav had a reservation in advance.
Review 6:You had a wonderful breakfast and very nice room
Review 7:Location was perfect; just one block from main station the room was comfortable and big enough for my big suitcase. Staff is very friendly and polite. Breakfast buffet was delicious.
Review 8:Just opposite the bus/train station - request room facing away from the road for a quiet night. A little difficult to locate and approach by car. Rather basic, lacking character.
Review 9:Only a 10-minute walk to the old town. Room was just enough for 2 adults and 2 children to share, clean and tidy.
Review 10:The staff not very warm. A final remark about the car parked taking too much place, when if fact other one smaller was taking more, was not a nice farewell.
Review 11:The place close to the old town
Review 12:Nice hotel, very close to the old part of the city. We had a very nice room with the entrance from the small garden. Breakfast was perfect, breakfast area is very nice and cosy. The staff at the breakfast room- perfect! We were lucky to get a free parking near the hotel. there are a lot of restaurants in 10 min walking, located by the channel. we took a boat trip but the walking was much more interesting. The staff at the reception was friendly and nice.
Review 13:No refrigerator inside the room.
Review 14:We really like the location because it is near to the city. The air condition is good as it is summertime. The parking space is good as well.
Review 15:Wonderful staff, clean rooms with great beds. AC, Parking (large parking garage across the street & Wifi) living up to our expectations. Really good breakfast
Review 16:The room had an odor, perhaps deodorant residue. Open window took care of the issue quickly.
Review 17:Clean, sparkling room, recently renovated. Outstanding breakfast. Excellent service and attention from all staff.
Review 18:- Humid breakfast area - Confusing stairs A full bus arrived during the evening, causing dead-lock in the reception...
Review 19:- Very central in Lübeck, easy to find, short walk into old town. - Free parking on the outside of the hotel - Extremely silent room despite of location - Elevator - Good breakfast (Luckily the busload of people had an early breakfast)
Review 20:A sewer smell was in the bathroom. Closing the bathroom door helped!
Review 21:The hotel was great in all things except for the sewer smell from the bathroom. We really enjoyed the wonderful breakfast and fast WiFi . the location was excellent.
Review 22:The hotel's parking was full but we found parking on the street, a five minute walk from the hotel.
Review 23:Great hotel, located near the center of Lübeck. Gluten free bread for the kids was no problem.
Review 24:Wifi signal did not reach the room.
Review 25:Poor or no WIFI signal in the room, which was towards the back of the hotel. Ladies at the reception desk spoke excellent English and very helpful. Location is nice 10 minute walk to center of Lübeck. Breakfast was excellent and beds were comfy. Everything you need for a one night visit.
Review 26:The hotelrooms and corridors had a really awful smell. Had to sleep in front of an open window all night. Some kind of obsessional, deep bad smell. Also in the room the sewer just stinked. For moving around, facility was really bad with all the stairs and long and complex corridors. Not a Place for passengers with lots of luggage or with reduced mobility. Also the car places were too slight and hard to get in.
Review 27:Breakfast was ok
Review 28:Nice hotel, within easy walk of the primary area of Lubeck. No problem with parking. Friendly staff. Very good buffet breakfast. Room was good size, clean, and comfortable.
Review 29:There is very little parking here, but we knew that ahead of time, so it was no surprise. We did manage to find parking nearby.
Review 30:This was in a great location, near the Holstentor and the old Town. We could walk to everything. If you come to Lubeck by train, it is also convenient to the train station. The staff spoke excellent English and were the nicest we encountered in our 3 week long vacation. The room was spacious and the beds really comfy. The breakfast was excellent, and included lots of regional foods.
Review 31:the staff wasn't very friendly. the sewer in the bathroom gave off a terrible smell, and the shower should have a bath mat....it was tricky getting in and out without falling!
Review 32:The location is close to center. The parking space in front is a special plus for people like us who needed it
Review 33:Parking was stated as free, but it turned out that the fee for the garage was 10€ per night.
Review 34:Good breakfast, kind and responsive staff. We forgot a jacket in the room and they sent it direct to our homeaddress.
Review 35:The single room was too small. If you travel with a large suitcase, it is full and you have to step / climb over it all the time.
Review 36:Good base to explore town.
Review 37:It would have been nice to make tea/coffee in the room, although it was available at the reception at all times.
Review 38:Location, cleanliness and comfort. Very quiet for a hotel on a main road.
Review 39:Breakfast could be better Extra bed was not comfortable (the other one was ok) Internet: one password for each device, should work for more than one day, but we had to ask for new ones...
Review 40:Staff very friendly. Location is ok, only 10 minutes from old city center.
Review 41:Traditional little hotel but not too old-fashioned or outdated. Very nice and clean. Quiet room. Great location for train travelers! They also put a lot of effort on the breakfast.
Review 42:When arriving late it is hard to find a parking place if your car is over 2 m high as it won't fit into the public parking garage situated in the vicinity of the hotel.
Review 43:24 hours reception, tasty and plentiful breakfast, easy to reach.
Review 44:In fact we were Really satisfied with this hotel for 1 night and I even will Recommend it for very comfortable location but think the room for three persons have to be a bit bigger.
Review 45:Great location. Nice staff. Tasty breakfast.
Review 46:Not possible to pre-book parking in Garage or outside hotel. Street outside can be noisy.
Review 47:We got nice and large non-smoking rooms as desired, which we appreciated. Good and large breakfast buffé. The hotel is nice and clean with a good location, just 10 min from Old Town.
Review 48:Everything about our stay was wonderful! Very pleasant and helpful staff, excellent food, easy walking distance to train station and the old city, and very nice room accommodations. Would recommend to others, and love to return!
Review 49:We had 2 rooms booked. The first rooms they gave us, was both on minus 1st floor (basement) with a view directly out into a very small back yard (they called these rooms "quiet rooms to the back garden"). These 2 "quiet" rooms smelled terrible of cigarette smoke. We then got two new rooms, with no or moderate smell of cigarette smoke.
Review 50:No lounge for guests to sit in; there were a few settees scattered along the corridors. Would have liked a room to relax in other than our own bedroom.
Review 51:Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was tasty with a good choice of various local foods. Bedroom clean neat and very presentable. A bit too warm at times.
Review 52:Free parking very limited. We were very lucky to get one of the few spots in front.
Review 53:Location by train station only a short walk to town. Friendly staff.
Review 54:Nothing not to like.
Review 55:Staff was very helpful and nice. A 2 minute walk from train station and across street from buses. Very nice, updated room and bathroom. Great breakfast. Comfortable and very clean.
Review 56:Great location (3 steps from bus station, 200 m from Hauptbahnhof, 500 m from historical old town), friendly staff (evening tea, set for ironing, laggage storage), quiet room. Finally, they have a rooms for smokers, if it's important for you :)! Small disadvanteges: no minibar, no facilities for tea making, washing complect is too limited. But it's no matter and ultimately it's a 3 star hotel.
Review 57:The fire escape plan showed a route that would have required us to go up half a floor in a dodgy little staircase, across to another building and then down; if there were a fire, I don't think it would work....
Review 58:Very close to the train and bus station. Excellent breakfast. Charming garden, but it was raining so we couldn't use it. We were given a 'garden view' room, but you'd have to lean out of the window and look down to see it; not worth paying extra for.
Review 59:Lift a bit small, 3 people plus luggage was about the limit.
Review 60:Location very good - less than 2 minutes walk to bus and rail station and 15 minutes to historical centre; Staff were pleasant and professional; Room was large, clean, with a big bathroom; Breakfast was good quality.
Review 61:Only two things: Our room was very dark in the day and had no nice view from the window. Beds were too soft, not good for people who have back problem.
Review 62:Location, cleanliness, breakfast, helpful staff, bathroom, parking. Better than I expected.
Review 63:- we booked a room for 3 persons but got a 2 person room - free car parking announced but don't count on it - 150 euro is way too much for what we got
Review 64:Only the fact that I was there for just one night. I wanted to stay for a week!
Review 65:The hotel is right opposite the train and bus stations but I had a quiet room at the rear of the building. I liked absolutely everything about the hotel. I received a warm welcome, my single room was quite spacious and extremely comfortable, nicely furnished with a very good bathroom - everything spotlessly clean. The staff were kind and friendly and there was a nice atmosphere. The breakfast was exceptionally good and although the dining room was very busy when I went in, there were plenty of staff to replenish the buffet and re-set tables. I thought the hotel was expertly managed with the accent on making sure guests were happy. I would wholeheartedly recommend the Excelsior; it's a really nice place to stay.
Review 66:Nothing to dislike this time.
Review 67:Been here before and this time we got a better room. We choose this hotel because it's close to the city center. The public parking garage nearby is well worth its €10 a day.
Review 68:Reception staff were outstanding, helpful and informative with a smile. Found a free car park spot without asking. Comfortable and a short stroll into historic Lubeck, what a find for us, as we were travelling down from Trondheim to Lake Constance and on one night stays, wish we had had the time to stay longer.
Review 69:annoying A/C system
Review 70:staff friendliness, location - very close to bus and railway station, as well as historical city center, served an excellent breakfast on demand at 5am.
Review 71:Nothing really, breakfast could be better but it is no complaint.
