I stayed here for a week with work.
I have been to Munster before. I was impressed then, nearly 20 years ago, and my good impression of the city has been reinforced.
The hotel is about 500 yards from the centre of the city. There is parking for cars underground. I have a large van so parked outside the hotel. Reception is friendly and efficient. The reception staff are all more than competent with English. I cannot comment on any other foreign languages that they may be able to use.
One of my colleagues was in a superior quality room. He reported that he had a good sized double bed and tea/coffee facilities. I had a standard room. A large bed but no tea/coffee facilities. All rooms appear to have a well stocked fridge. However, the price of drinks, chocolate etc. from the fridge is alarming. Further, a coffee or tea from downstairs was reportedly 4 Euros !
Both breakfast and dinner were really good. The restaurant is not open every night. We found a good cafe at the end of the road (turn right onto Aagdimarkt and go to the end). We also found a very good Italian restaurant virtually opposite the hotel.
There is a lake just a few hundred yards from the hotel. It is beautiful. Munster seems to be a very fit city. I saw lots of runners round the lake (I ran too!). Cycling is a big thing across Germany but, in my experience, Munster is by far the most cycle friendly place. That makes it rather difficult for drivers and pedestrians if you are not used to it.
There is a building site beside the hotel at present (Aug 2010). They work long hours ! This affected my sleep as did some of the locals having loud parties until the not so early hours !
Would I stay again ? Yes.
