After spending a week in Germany and in various hotels around Northen Germany, this one was really a lovely treat. From the moment of check in (they know who you are the minute you are through the door!). The rooms are immaculate and cosy, and the restaurant is fantatstic to say the least! The staff are very friendly, and the food is very tasty.

I wish I could have stayed anoteher day or so!

Enjoy with a nice glass of Pils!

I try to keep my reviews short, sweet & straight to the point!!

My wife and I stayed in the Hotel Convent Garten in the middle of September, on our journey up through Germany to Denmark.

The staff, all of them, could not have been more helpful and indeed charming. The public areas contained wonderful large scale models of commercial ships; a delight for overgrown schoolboys.

Our room overlooked the Kiel Kanal where we could watch the ships sail from the North Sea to the Baltic, or maybe the other way round; (all day and all night if we had been so inclined). The fun was almost silent, but well worth watching.

Our room was large and comfortable enough, the bathroom worked as advertised, though I wish hotels in general would be more generous in installing larger showers; not necessarily to have room to shower with a friend, just so that those of us inclinded to be larger than average, could turn without hitting the walls.

The restaurant was excellent, both for dinner and breakfast; the staff being helpful and charming and the offerings of excellent quality.

The cost at the end of our stay was much lower than we had expected it to be for the quality on offer; the calculation was checked to see if anything had been left out; nothing had, but we continued our journey in a good mood as a result.

One niggle; as a handicapped ex-serviceman, I noticed that there was no ramp to the reception area from the outside world. In days gone by when, wheelchair bound, I would have needed such a ramp, this would have been a source of irritation!

No complaints at all; we rate this hotel as one we would happily and willingly return to and would unhesitatingly recommend to our friends.

Staying one night 20/09-21/09-2008 at the great hotel Convent Garden in Rendsburg, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany produces this very statement:

The hotel was in top regarding service, cleaning-standard and location. Sitting in your room and watching the by-passing ships at the Nord-Ostsee-Kanal is a very special experience.
