Reviews for Factory Hotel
Review 1:There was a new years eve party which They told us about when we arrived, but it was already fully booked. Same issue with the restaurant, all full for Silvester. I think it was better to send us the options by email so that we could make a reservation in advance. In munster it is apperently normal to go out for dinner on Silvester, so all the Nice/good places are booked
Review 2:The industrial look was Great! Nice area, ice-skating field infront of the hotel Close to the city center, perfect by bike and They have enough bikes for rental
Review 3:A minibar or tea and coffee making facilities would be nice . As it's generally not available in German hotels I wasn't disappointed .
Review 4:Very warm welcome . Lovely, clean room . And an amazing breakfast Buffett . There is a bar and several restaurants on site and it's only 10 minutes on the bus to town . Free mineral water still and sparkling every day in the room was a nice touch . As was the free lipbalm and apples in the foyer to help yourself . Lovely hotel .. Hence we ve stayed here often in the past and will definitely stay there again
Review 5:the smell in the main building? it has a weird odor, not exactly too strong but slightly uncomfortable.
Review 6:the decor and the spacious room with a balcony, comes with nice personal cleaning products is always plus in my book.
Review 7:Renting a bike was inflexible. We wanted to rent is only for the night, but it was the same price as renting a whole day. I suggest to rent it out for 24 hours (not strictly from morning to evening). It was a bit firther form the city centre than expected, 20 minute walk
Review 8:Very clean room, lovely Rituals soap&shampoo, modern design room, big bed, good working wifi connection,
Review 9:Rooms really bland, maybe too spoiled from stay in another hotel the night before but it does feel like a factory, no mini bar
Review 10:Staff very helpful when we needed an adapted for the plugs and directions in to town.
Review 11:Breakfast was nice, but 17 euro's was a bit crazy for a buffet.
Review 12:Location, design, comfort, price, ease of public transport, rental bikes, secure parking.
Review 13:Despite the refurbishing works, the hotel was clean. The staff was welcoming and helpful. The lady at the desk loved her city and gave us the right input.
Review 14:The pillows were atrocious, but I forgot to check for better ones, so it's possible that the grade would have been bettert here. 17 euro for a single breakfast, too expensive so we didn't try it.
Review 15:The friendly atmosphere and the feel of the hotel was very cozy.
Review 16:Missing an ordinary chairFatboy. Missing a safety box Missing a fridge The tartan carpet in halls and stairs
Review 17:The architecture and design in restaurant
Review 18:The hotel has been transformed so cleverly retaining the feel of the "factory" yet very clean,comfortable and contemporary. The staff were wonderful, very helpful and good fun. The hotel has a warm, friendly and fun feel, and the choice and quality of food was excellent.
Review 19:booking.com promises a 210 cm long bed. Factory hotel does not offer these beds however and blames booking.com for putting these sizes on their site. The beds facory hotel does offer, are too small for tall north europeans. So avoid if you are above 185 cm.
Review 20:Entrance door blocks noise fron the hallway
Review 21:Beds could be softer.
Review 22:It's def a different concept but pretty cool. Good places to eat located at hotel. Rent a bike from the hotel and fet to anywhere in the city.
Review 23:Somehow high and unpredictable overnight rate
Review 24:Best choice when on business in Muenster. Superb gym, poll and sauna, free Wi-Fi in rooms (not announced adequately in filters of booking.com)
Review 25:Should be good, if single bed easy to create to king-bed.
Review 26:1. All personnel is helpful and polite very much. 2. Interior decors and style - modern & nice 3. Location
Review 27:We booked two rooms for 2 parents and two kids, but in spite of asking beforehand, were not given adjoining rooms. Given the size of the hotel, this was surprising.
Review 28:Cool interiors, very modern hotel.
Review 29:Location isn't ideal if you want to visit Munster city, however, the nearby restaurants looked all good (and the one we tested was great)
Review 30:Relaxed atmosphere, cool interior designs, funky bar and good, spacious rooms
Review 31:A bit far from the city centre
Review 32:Large, comfortable bed Nice design (old factory combined with modern architecture) Kind reception Good breakfast Good restaurant & food The "campus" surrounding the hotel makes it possible to stay close to the hotel, no need to go to the city centre at night
Review 33:very cumbersome to reach lobby from underground car park, had to negotiate many doors with suitcases, none automatic // confusing labelling on lift panels // sign posting for restaurants very poor // in winter you need a coat to go to breakfast
Review 34:good breakfast, interesting concept in a former factory
Review 35:A truly awful experience - The building may be a gem of modern architecture but it felt like sleeping in a work house. The bar is appalling, wretched seating etc. It's too far from the centre.
Review 36:Little at all. It was a bed for the night.
Review 37:- noisy - lacking in atmosphere/ people -poor facilities: no tea/ coffee in the room, no iron, no minibar - two single duvets rather than one kingsize
Review 38:This is certainly a unique hotel. I loved the design and overall ambience. Very comfortable rooms and good location. It was very convenient having several budget restaurants in the complex. Hotel was a short walk to the city and the staff very friendly and welcoming.
Review 39:The hallways from the parking garage up to the lobby have lots of heavy doors, carrying luggage to the elevator was a bit tough. Early check-in wasn't possible for all group members (we were a wedding party and needed a place to chance, the room booked on booking.com with request for an early check-in was ready though).
Review 40:Nice, clean modern rooms with big windows. Nice, helpful staff. Request for earaly check-in on booking.com worked.
Review 41:Would have liked to have two proper chairs in the room - the "bean bag" didn't really work for us. Disappointed that the building's history wasn't very apparent. The rooms are in a characterless modern block.
Review 42:Good breakfast, large room, several restaurants nearby.
Review 43:No minibar, sunday hotelbar closed
Review 44:Nice room, gentle staff
Review 45:-
Review 46:nice service, excellent location, noce atmosphere

Review 50:Distance from station, but the great value made up for the taxi ride.
Review 51:Price, style, staff, everything was great!
Review 52:Friendly staff, really good breakfast, clean and quiet room. Atmosphäre die to architecture is a bit cold/ clean chic.
Review 53:A little far from the centre of town
Review 54:Nice area with good options for eating out

Review 56:Everything, will definitely stay there again when I'll visit Muenster the next time...
Review 57:Paying for car parking
Review 58:Design of building
Review 59:Nice architectural idea. Perfect breakfast
Review 60:Nothing.
Review 61:Modern design, location, excellent breakfast, good value for money.
Review 62:The hotel is pretty far out!
Review 63:The silence at night!
Review 64:A long walk to city center
Review 65:Interesting architiecture, hip vibe, nice restaurants nearby
Review 66:A little removed from town.
Review 67:Very modern, comfortable rooms. Good breakfast.
Review 68:Staff were very cold
Review 69:Amazing original factory features, architectural interesting, large rooms
Review 70:- design and style of facility - very friendly and helpful staff - restaurants nearby hotel as part of the complex - bike rental at the hotel
Review 71:Cleaning standard not very good. Breakfast overpriced!
Review 72:Good location, excellent restaurants in same quater.
Review 73:Design Gym and lots of restaurants on the grounds Free wifi
Review 74:nothing
Review 75:design selection of restaurants within walking distance from the hotel free wi fi size of the room breakfast next to the pool
Review 76:Thought 17 euros for breakfast was very expensive - so had a cheap light breakfast at the local supermarket!
Review 77:Very interesting brewery conversion. Had a very good reasonably priced dinner in 'Eat' sitting beside the water!
Review 78:It is maybe unfair to mention its location because it is only a short bus ride away from the centre. Nevertheless, if there had a hotel of this standard and price nearer the centre we would have chosen it.
Review 79:Excellent breakfast and lovely room. Helpful staff
Review 80:No refridgerator in the room and no watercooker with some teabags and coffee. No information on hotel facilities in the room.
Review 81:Spatious room, good matrasses, clean shower and a large balcony. Quiet area, about 10 minutes by bike from the city center. Free wifi.
Review 82:The internet coverage is patchy. Room service isn't good. We asked for an extra duvet, but were told by the girl at reception to come downstairs to collect it ourselves as she was the only member of staff on duty.
Review 83:Location was good and breakfast was very good, if a little expensive. The staff are nice, but seem more suited to work in an Apple store, rather than a hotel. They're more like students than service orientated hotel staff.
Review 84:As it was an old factory the doors int he corridor were very large and noisy when closing.
Review 85:located in acomplex with numerous restauranst acafes and other activity centres. Renovation from factory to hotel is very tastefully done and th efeel of the old complex is retained.
Review 86:No info in room about hotel and facilities hence didn't know when bar was open or what sort of food restaurants served.etc A map of hotel and basic hotel info would have been useful
Review 87:Check in staff very helpful and cheerful The hotel was very interesting -we had used it when it was a swimming pool so we were intrigued to see it now Overall a very good stay
Review 88:The hotel restaurants have good atmosphere and good. There are some other restaurants around the hotel for different choice. Young lady staff in the front desk are friendly and helpful.
Review 89:The hotel is unusual, having previously been a brewery, so as the name suggests there is an industrial feel to the place. For all of that we found it a delightful experience. The staff were friendly and helpful, the room was large and well appointed, and the breakfast was very good. The hotel has secure underground parking, and whilst it is probably a 30-40 minute walk from the town centre, you can catch a bus immediately outside of the hotel or drive in in 5 minutes. There are also a good choice of restaurants in the immediate vacinity. In future we will certainly keep an eye open for this hotel group. Wi-Fi is also free.
Review 90:Chipped bowls at breakfast - there were a lot of them - and when I alerted the staff they were not concerned. Chip bowls are a potential health hazard and your choice of bowls seem prone to chipping
Review 91:Room was comfortable, the reception and room cleaning staff very helpful
Review 92:Walking between sectors if the hotel when quiet can appear a bit eerie but this does add to the atmosphere.
Review 93:Quirkiness - the hotel combines the old factory in a modern setting. It is one of a kind and you must see it to appreciate. The rooms are very modern, large and the bed very comfortable. The breakfast is very good with unique personal touches.
Review 94:The modernist design is bordering kitsch. The dancing events nearby are noisy and lasts until 04:00 in the morning. There is no minibar or fridge in rooms.
Review 95:Good restaurants around hotel. Also a supermarket and pharmacy.
Review 96:Air/con does not work even though I asked them to look at it on three occassions Does not have a small refrigerator in room, which would make it much more comfortable. Friday night very noisey, party night
Review 97:Has restaurants etc close, close to city centre
Review 98:During the walk from the main building (former brewery) to the rooms one has to enter a roofed part, big temperature difference. One can discuss about the interior of the rooms (no link with any historical building, except the site it self); is it 'design', cool. Or : 'cold'. To us it tended to the latter. Overall : satisfactory.
Review 99:Everything new. Not a standard hotel. Large room, nice bath room
Review 100:It was rather cold in our room and even with heating turned up to maximum it was cold . Also the breakfast at 17 euro is rather expensive. Wish tt would have cheaper breakfast options
Review 101:Lovely spacious room.
Review 102:No tea or coffee making facilities, nor room service. They charge 19.5Euros for breakfast and 5 Euros for a bottle of water.
Review 103:The location and decor and local restaurants. Difficult to find.
Review 104:Parking was paid this time.. On the net it was mentioned - Free Parking.. Toiletries were not complete in the Bathroom.. They used to provide much better toiletries before.. Overall, the service level was slightly lower than before..
Review 105:Location, staff, design of the hotel
Review 106:It was in a complex with lots of good bars and restaurants so we didn't need to go back into the town at night to eat. The room was well equipped and the bathroom very modern. Free bottle of mineral water was a welcome touch.
Review 107:At the check-out we were suddenly told to pay 50 Euros extra per night for our two children who had slept on the pull-out sofa of the suite. The hotel had not had such charges in 2011, nor were we told of any such charges when we made the reservation this year. The receptionist finally checked the hotel's own records of the booking and then back down. So, we didn't pay the 50 Euros, but the member of staff who dealt with us was less than courteous, claiming that we should actually have been charged it rather than apologizing for their mistake. This issue, rising prices in general, and additional charges e.g. for parking are likely to make us look elsewhere next time. A minor issue was that the selection of channels available on TV was rather restricted. The children had looked forward to a film on SuperRTL, which was not available despite being freeview.
Review 108:This is a fantastic hotel with great design features both to please the eye and to make one's stay superbly comfortable. Our children (10 and 5) absolutely loved the giant bean bags and the separate television in their part of the suite. We parents hugely enjoyed the very big and comfortable bed and the great design of everything, from the bathroom with slate tiles to the wall-to-wall bench in the bedroom. The breakfast was good too, although we are not the sorts of people who'd drink sparkling for breakfast.
Review 109:The room is too expensive, keeping in mind that the hotel is locatedoutside the city and breakfast is not included. The room is very basic(in terms of the facilities). If breakfast was included, it would havebeen a fair price. Make sure that you ask a room far away from theentrance door of the hallway.
Review 110:The hotel is an old factory that has been very nicely renovated. Brunchon Sunday is excellent and really worth the 17 euros.
Review 111:everything was first class,food was excellent,the staff where very helpful and courteous nothing was too much trouble,rooms spacious, comfortable,and very clean.cannot fault the factory hotel at all.I would definitely stay there again.
Review 112:Expensive breakfast at 17 euros per person.
Review 113:Location close to old town Munster, a 20 minute walk or short taxi ride.Good combination of old brewery with new and spacious hotel rooms.
Review 114:Arrived by car and had to go through a payment parking spot in order toarrive. Parking is free for hotel guests but the website did not mentionanything about this.
Review 115:Brilliant hotel. Everything was new, clean and spot on. Can stronglyrecommend.
Review 116:Unique place! Modern design hotel built into an old factory. Greatrooms, beds, in a complex with nice looking restaurants and someshopping. Sadly we arrived too late to eat dinner, everything isclosed by 11:00.
Review 117:This hotel does not suit any familys with children to stay. Theiradvertising is also in-accurate stating they have swimming pool. In factthey do not have any fitness or swim pool facilities. What they offer isa connection with Fitness First (extrrnal centre) that only allow accessfor persons above 18years.The hotel does seem suitable for teenagers and rave parties. Drinking and dancing. For families i would say tje hotel is horrible.....
Review 118:- no mini bar - Location not very close to the centre and the transports in Muenster were not very convenient
Review 119:The facilities were modern and innovative and the staff was more than friendly and helpful
Review 120:The personal in the reception told me that: "if you loose the breakfast card you will have to pay for another breakfast". Very school teacher and that was the moment that she lost me as a customer. No whire less WIFI which is also nerving. I like to be able to sit in the bed, the computer in the knee and work. Not possible here - you have to sit at a desk.
Review 121:A very nice breakfast. A very special design of the hotel.
Review 122:I have nothing negative to say about the Factory Hotel.
Review 123:Great hotel in a nice location with excellent staff service. Rooms werevery modern in an old factory setting. All rooms had a balcony which wasperfect for smoking =) Would recommend this hotel to anyone!
Review 124:I loved the modern design and feel of the hotel and the location being in the middle of all of those restaurants of many nationalities. It was perfect for us. Also a walk into the center of town was just what we needed.
Review 125:The buffet breakfast, although good, was too expensive. Half the price would yield a much better value-for-money ratio.
Review 126:Good location, clean, good but pricey buffet breakfast, free parking
Review 127:The sign on the road was quite small and difficult to see.
Review 128:everything was good. BBC world news was appreciated.
Review 129:Poor Wifi connection in hotelroom
Review 130:Entourage of the hotel Politeness of the staff
Review 131:Price of breakfast
Review 132:Good value for money Clean and big rooms
