Review 2:Central to local Swiss side and German side ...best shopping ..Irish pub ..within 100 metres and casino and train station ..great normal priced food ..excellent

Review 3:Very good location and staff are very friendly and helpful. The breakfast is superb, and the dining hall itself is a fantastic sight to see. Love this hotel, already recommended to friends.

Review 4:Great location across from train station and lake. Close to shopping & restaurants. The rooms are large with all amenities to make you comfortable. Helpful, friendly staff.

Review 5:You had to ask at reception for everything - had to go and ask for the remote control for the TV, had to go and ask for the wifi code which I couldn't get to work and when I went back to reception to ask for help - I was told that technology & the recetionist didn't mix ????? So needless to say I didn't get any wifi, you had to go and ask for the code to use the toilets in reception....... I got sick of walking down to reception!!!

Review 6:The hotel is lovely and very central.

Review 7:Professional, friendly, highly competent and qualified staff, amazing breakfast room, history of the hotel, current owners who seem to have a clear vision and an excellent sense for what customers want and who are willing to invest in good employees.

Review 8:Nothing

Review 9:Excellent location, right near the lake and within walking distance of all the bars and restaurants. Staff are really nice but particularly a waiter in the bar area who I found really chatty and wanted to go out of his way to help you and point out all the nice things in and around constance

Review 10:wifi running most of time was perfect, just sometimes especially in the morning was a bit unstable for wifi connection.

Review 11:everything was almost perfect. very nice staffs provided the travel information we need. Clean and comfortable room.

Review 12:Friendly staff provided local advice and a welcome drink. Although we had a room without air-conditioning the ventilator fan did a good job of cooling the room, 'Market' multi-story car park at rear. Good location for town, lake and railway station.

Review 13:Had a room only rate as breakfast cost €17. Bar service was intermittent to say the least. Hotel probably due a refurb in the near future. Showing some signs of wear.

Review 14:Excellent location across from the train station. We had a superior room and this worked out great for us as we were sharing with a teenager and she had a separate room with a sofa bed. Sound proofing was good and air conditioning was sufficient.

Review 15:The room is not exactly the same as described. Although it was described as a superior double room (22m²) with aircon, but it was a regular double room (18m²) with aircon actually. The bathroom also needs immediate renovation.

Review 16:The room is comfortable (with aircon) and the breakfast is good but is a little expensive (€17/each).

Review 17:No air conditioning in room. Very hot in room without it. Noise from bins and church bells going all the time

Review 18:Fantastic location. Very convenient to get everywhere as hotel is so central.

Review 19:We paid extra for a lake view but the window was obstructed by the bed so view not easily enjoyed. The room was generally rather snug.

Review 20:The staff were very friendly and breakfast in the beautiful restaurant was delicious. The location opposite the station and lake was fantastically convenient.

Review 21:Bathroom had clear windows and was overlooked by offices 20 meters away. Only parking available was in a public car park (which was not cheap!)

Review 22:Hotel is located very near the lake.

Review 23:The Internet system for connection. Only one device allow. For more, you have to pay, or logout from the one you are using. If you have a laptop, a tablet and a mobile phone, you end crazy!

Review 24:Staff delightful, free wifi, public parking with a multi day pass just around the corner. Walking distance to the train, bus, ferries. Walking distance to the old city. Charming comfortable room, elegant dining hall, attentive wait staff

Review 25:we loved the room and view on fourth floor .Bed was very comfortable and pillows were lovely .It was very quiet even though we were facing train station .

Review 26:Breakfast is too expensive so we didn't bother with it. Bathroom needs updating a little as does some furniture.

Review 27:Great location opposite station and port. Big top floor room.

Review 28:Bathrooms really not optimal for elderly or disabled people. Deep slipperly bathtubs made shower difficult. Also water all over the bathroom after shower.

Review 29:Very service minded staff, hotel with atmosphere and great location

Review 30:We had dinner at the restaurant and service was slow. The meatballs that we ordered were dry. Breakfast was not included in the rates and costs euro 17 per person. So we had our breakfast elsewhere.

Review 31:The hotel was very well located. The superior double room was big and had great views of the lake. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Review 32:Horrible odour from the bathroom, when we complain the next day, the staff just apologized and they compensated us with nothing. Bathroom very old and with fungus. Room very small. Unconfortable bed. It is not four stars hotel, super expensive.

Review 33:Good location

Review 34:trying to access free wifi was difficult but i'm sure if i'd asked the staff they would've sorted it out in no time at all.

Review 35:location, view, staff were lovely nothing was too much trouble

Review 36:The breakfast is excellent. ..but costs €17 euros. The tables are groaning under the choice of food..however If all you want is a light breakfast of croissant and coffee then I would look elsewhere..

Review 37:The location is unbeatable, the breakfast room breathtaking we were upgraded to a suite.It is worth visiting just out of season when there arent many tourists, accommodation prices are low and the weather isnt too bad..if you like Grand nineteenth century hotels then choose this one.

Review 38:expensive breakfast, but we realized it is expensive everywhere in Germany (for our standards)

Review 39:very well located, nice staff, quiet and large room, huge bathroom, free internet.

Review 40:When I came back to the hotel around midnight, the noise from the Brasserie Ignaz was deafening. I called reception and they tried to calm down the party, with mixed success. The hip hop music got softer but continued right until 3 AM. Never again.

Review 41:Great location right in front of the train station

Review 42:Parking was not clear until @ 1ST. Didn't understand WIFi until Tobias {front desk person} & walked us through it. In house restaurant maybe could have had a better variety, but area was full of variety of food & treats. William Frankfurt am Main

Review 43:Front business attitude!

Review 44:No tea/coffee facility in room, this is a must for us first thing in morning. Shower was a disaster, switch it on and the head swivels round and wets everywhere. First day I. spa was lovely, sauna to ourselves, fresh lemon water there, bottle of eucalyptus to put on coals, plenty fresh towels, second day, no one had been to replenish water, towels, eucalyptus was gone and had not been cleaned, didn't feel nice, attention to detail!

Review 45:Front desk staff were lovely and very helpful. Out of the door and your in walking distance to everything. Breakfast was very good. One of the few Hotels lately that has a dressing table with mirror and socket to get ready at. We liked the little spa area BUT!

Review 46:Breakfast not included. Mattress is too soft. Very hard to park around the hotel. There are some parking lots (5 min walking distance), but the cost is high (14€/day). Not quiet if you get a room with window to the main street.

Review 47:Style of the hotel. Location. Sauna.

Review 48:The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful and spoke English well. I requested a quiet room for my elderly parents, and early check-in, and both were provided with no problem!

Review 49:the smell in the bathroom of sewage! We asked to move rooms but unfortunately the room they offered us was dirty, a dozen empty beer bottles in the wardrobe! Half eaten packet of something, used toiletries, bed crumpled. Nasty! We moved back to our original very clean and tidy room and put up with the smell. Unfortunately there was little in the way of an apology or compensation!

Review 50:the location was perfect, right in the heart of Constance. The reception area was beautifully decorated with Christmas trees, candles and lights. Very tasteful and festive.

Review 51:We had small Problem with Internet Access. We had breakfast at the bakery front of the Hotel. The Price for breakfast is too expensive.

Review 52:We had a view to the lake. We enjoyed it very much. Excellent central place front of main Train Station and very closed to the City centre and old town.

Review 53:- Quite expensive for what you get - While the staff was friendly, we had to haul out our luggage from a dark storage room behind vacuum cleaners ourselves. For the price of the hotel I expect the staff to do that - We had two separate mattresses - Room furniture seemed quite old, couch was really uncomfortable - No free WiFi

Review 54:+ Very central location next to the train station + Spacious room (had the Superior Double Room) + Very nice breakfast (had to pay extra)

Review 55:Kitchen was closed on a Saturday night.

Review 56:Location is great. Right in the city centre and next to the train station. It is a fancy looking hotel. Rooms are nice and clean.

Review 57:The breakfast room was like an Islamic prayer room which gave us anuneasy feeling. For that reason alone we will not stay at thishotel again.

Review 58:Excellent location, nice spacious room, very clean. Very friendly andhelpfull staff. Expensive but good breakfast.

Review 59:Old hotel. Bathroom sometimes smelled of raw sewerage. No free Wi-Fi.

Review 60:Clean room. Excellent location in the old town, near the train station. Rich breakfast buffet.

Review 61:The layout of the rooms, felt a little 'boxed in'. Shouldn't have to pay for wi-fi anywhere in the world anymore.

Review 62:The location and the friendliness/helpfulness of the staff.

Review 63:There is a Parking near, but it's a little expensive. The hotel is pretty clean, but is a little old.

Review 64:It's a charming hotel, in a good location. The apartment is very large and the breakfast is excelent.

Review 65:I think I must have stayed in a different place than many of the reviewers saying something nice about this place. I haven't seen a four star hotel in such a bad shape for a long time. The pictures hugely oversell this place. It is old, the room we had stank of mold from the bathroom and the bathroom was falling apart. Terrible, for 150 euros a night this is a total rip off!

Review 66:Wifi access charged extra. No free parking (EUR 15 extra payable at the municipal parking located next to the hotel - if you find any free space). Breakfast quite expensive (charged EUR 17 / person)

Review 67:Great atmosphere, great view, great location, great staff, amazing restaurant hall

Review 68:Breakfast cost 20.00. Should be included. They charged for wifi -- no other hotel in 6 weeks has charged us!

Review 69:Location, staff very accommodating. Glass Wine served at 6:00 each night. our suitcases locked up whle we rode around the lake for 5 days.

Review 70:the hotel is really old and the price of hotel is very high. most of the hotels provide free internet service this hotel was not, no parking area for the cars and the available one is public and not free.

Review 71:the hotel location is very good staff were friendly and always ready to help specially reception side, breakfast was very good

Review 72:the street and train station is loud not enough parking space in the direct surrounding

Review 73:the beauty of the facilities the kindness of the staff the furniture in the room the proximity to the lake and to the city center the blueberry muffins for breakfast

Review 74:Breakfast very expensive. No free WiFi and costly if you want to buy it. A bit noisy outside at night if your room faces the front.

Review 75:Great location in central Konstanz. Spacious rooms.

Review 76:Bathroom was a bit odd, we had a shower head in the bath but you could hardly shower as the roof line was so low. Having a view over the railway and lake was good but also meant that there was a lot of noise at times. And the wi fi is not free and not cheap which is a real minus point against the hotel.

Review 77:Room itself was good, we had a 5th (top) floor corner room that overlooked the lake ( over the railway station) and along the high street. Breakfast was good if a little pricey

Review 78:15euro charge for motorbike in public car park at the rear. You should not advertise parking in this way. Hotel overlooks railway station.

Review 79:Great quality hotel and greAt breakfast. Staff very good and created an excellent stay

Review 80:No air conditioning in the room.

Review 81:Location is perfect for exploring the old town and lake front area. Staff go out of their way to assist in any matters. Rooms are large and spacious. Bathroom is enormous.

Review 82:The mattress was very old and not comfortable. The young gentleman at reception needs more training, his service was poor and not the standard I expect from a four-star hotel, he made us wait for over an hour until we could check in which was a waste of our precious time in Konstanz. Shame.

Review 83:Excellent location right across from the train station and close to Lago shopping centre.

Review 84:The Hotel staff were very helpful and polite. The Hotel itself is well maintained and in a great location with the main railway station directly opposite. I was a little nervous in case there was noise from the railway, but we noticed none. Breakfast was vast in choice and quality was perfect, well worth 17 euros. All in all, fantastic, we can highly recommend.

Review 85:We enjoyed the whole experience of the hotel Halm. Excellent. We would certainly recommend it to anyone and we would certainly stay there again. Thank you for a wonderful experience once again.

Review 86:Widow broke which limited air flow and maybe some more cupboard space

Review 87:This was our first visit to Konstanz and to have a great base from which to explore your town / region made our time really enjoyable. The hotel provided a high standard of accommodation - loved the fridge in the room, beds were comfortable and we felt secure in the room..
