"Join the Navy" could be the theme of this fine hotel next to the museum submarine of WW2, and the 56 meter high Naval Memory, with a splendid view from the top. …

I stayed as part of a conference of European naval associations, since the hotel is owned by the German Naval Association. We had bilingual speakers with us so did not suffer the language issues reported elsewhere.  …

We had lunch in the restaurant "Heimathafen", which was ok. The food was fine, but the service not so much. The price was reasonable, the hotel had interesting details such as a beautiful model of an old war ship, which was later taken by US navy, just to be sunk at the atomic bomb testing.....

Unpolite receptionist in the morning. She considered it normal that they do mantaince of the bathroom during your stay. So twice I could not go in my room because of that. Her solution after moking me and saying if it is the first time I stay in a hotel, because it is normal to do non urgent mantaince during a stay, that I should hang the no disturb sign. So for the rest of my stay I hang it and couldn't enjoy the benefits of housekeeping. The rest of the staff were very nice.

Imagine pulling up to a hotel that is across the street from a German u boat you came to visit. You walk in to check In and hanging on the wall is the bell from the original admiral scheer, German pocket battleship.  …
