“To avoid, a scam!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 July 2011

I went here in june 2011, i booked online and when I saw a superb room was only 40 euros/night more a booked a superb room (website of the hotel indicated that the room had a bathtub, was bigger and more luxurius).

When we arrived we were given a small room (not worth even called a normal room in a 4star hotel (20sqm) without the foreseen advantages of the room we've paid extra for.
After several hours of negociaton (the hotel manager was "away" or not available, the reception desk tried to call the manager but I saw clearly that the call they "made" was not a real one, they just pretended to make a call, i know because i used to sell the kind of telephony system they have ) at the reception we were given a "suite" (or what it was called for). Still no bath and now the room was 40 sqm (we only had an extra sofa area).

I asked to be transferred to the Maritim Köningswinter hotel (were I went already a lot of times as a frequent business traveler) but also this was not possible...

In the evening we went for a meal in the restaurant, at 19h00 the restaurant was empty and there was only noise in the kitchen, we stood there for 15 minutes and nobody came (aslo the restaurant floor was soaking wet (it started raining and apparently they pulled some outside furniture trough the restaurant to the kitchen)

I sent a complaint to the hotel hoping for some formal excuses... Still waiting.... The should better change the slogan to "mismanaged by Maritim"

Positive: clean rooms and nice swimming pool

“A very nice design spa hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 April 2011

This is a design hotel, and you can see that they made an effort to decorate the rooms with a lot of design stuff, the desk lamp for example, is "Dove" by Italiana Luce that cost around 250 euros. I don't understand how an hotel can decorate all the rooms with so expensive stuff. This is nice to have design stuff at your hotel room, A nice experience, definitely not the usual hotel room, but as a designer, I would have leave half of the stuff out of the room, that would make it more specious. The bed is a little bit short for tall people (if you're more than 1.95m), and the bathroom is beautiful, great rain-shower douche, but if you turn on the light there, the whole room get lighted due to the glass wall there. This hotel has also a very nice sauna and Turkish hamam, as well as a nice small swimming pool. The breakfast was great, not only that the food was good, but also sitting there at the table with a nice view on the hotel garden is worth it. In short, a very nice hotel.

“great place to stay”

I do a lot of business travel and this little hotel does it for me. Staff is friendly and accomodating. The room smells fresh and bathrooms are clean. It gives the impression that it is safe to walk barefeet. The breakfast buffet is small but witht he main items that a breakfast should include and dinner is also good. Will definitely come back

“one time, never aigain”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 September 2007
1
person found this review helpful

We came to visit good old friends in Bonn moved there 5 years ago. Our company suggested this hotel. We know very good 5 stars hotels in the whole world but this isn´t one of them. The rooms are small and the bathroom wasn´t cleaned good. The bed is hard like a rock in Yellowstone. The menu at the restaurant is like in a diner at the highway and the brakfast is boring.

Why it is a designhotel? The interior is unusually but nothing special, the stuff not works like in a five-star-hotel and the services are slowly and of a medium quality. This hotel leaved me the impressure to be leaded unloved.

I can not recommend this hotel. It´s only a youth-hostel but no five-star-hotel.

“Could be excellent - but not yet...”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 September 2007

Have just returned from a car racing break with friends in Germany and we have spent 2 nights at the Auerberg Hotel. I am not a big fan of design hotels (too cold for my taste) but this hotel was an nice exception - very fashionable with great decoration and colour combination without you feeling inside an ice cube.
Breakfast should satisfy all tastes - their buffet has basically all you can imagine to start your day. Their staff was the most friendly and helpfull from any hotel I stayed in Germany. Unfortunately they lacked a bit of German order and organization - there were rather few minor issues I have noticed (but being from hotel industry I could be rather picky) - burned light bulbs not changed for 3 days, no hand towels in public restrooms one morning, very overpriced water in the minibar (even the receptionist apologised for it being "so expensive!"). More dramatic one was when another guest walked into my friends room first night at 3am - he stayed in his room before and reception did not tell him about the change nor reprogram the door lock. If you don't mind similar issues this is the place to stay and a great value for money. If you ask me - I would stay there again hoping the management had time to get things right.
