We spontaneously took a break for a few days in Borkum. Since we knew the Hotel Kachelot (from before) we thought we could go there again. What awaited us there, however, was less beautiful. The bathroom was completely run down, it smelled musty and the curtain on the bathtub was already showing mildew stains. The room was partially renovated, furniture was old, doors were old and totally shabby. When we arrived, the sliding doors of the wardrobe didn't work, but this was fixed immediately. We had fingerprints on the sliding glass door until we arrived, like some storage basins. When we left, we showed the lady at reception the photos we had taken and she was visibly shocked.We would recommend the hotel at the moment. do not recommend, only after the complete renovation. The location of the hotel and the breakfast were very good.

Booked at short notice with 3 grandchildren in tow. Very friendly welcome at reception. Great large family room with connecting door and 2 bathrooms. Equipped for allergy sufferers. A 3 star hotel near the beach, which gets the star from us. Yes, it needs a new touch here and there ...the breakfast buffet was very well stocked. Extra requests were fulfilled. Extremely friendly staff. We'll be back.

The hotel is getting a bit old. But that's not bad at all. Everything is clean and the staff is very friendly. The location at the lighthouse is very central to the island railway, shops, restaurants and the main beach. WiFi bad.

I stayed here during a work trip and apart from the slow Internet connection, it was brilliant. The staff are incredibly friendly, helpful & professional, the hotel is immaculate and it has a great little gym/sauna.I would like to thank the staff for accommodating my poor German skills and making me feel welcome. Keep up the great work :)
