We had dinner with our 3 1/2 year old son this evening.We have rarely experienced such child-friendly staff as here! Just like the change to the menu and a spontaneous re-order because the little one also wanted a fried egg were no issue at all and were conjured up in a flash, it's just nice that there are still such restaurateurs. The food was excellent and quickly served at the table.10 out of 10 for food20 out of 10 for the lovely interaction with the little guests.The best thing was that it was no problem at all that the little one ran through the hall and said good night to everyone and the same was immediately wished to him at eye levelA really nice evening!

A really great hotel that also caters to the special dietary habits of its guests. Very well located, central and close to the beach. We also really liked the cinema next door. The person was very attentive and friendly. We'd love to come back.

Breakfast a bit too little. We made sure that we didn't bring too many grain rolls to the table. Buffet wasn't refilled when it was empty. Very little moldy cheese. The standard room a bit small. We had half board. The food was good but far too little. 2 potatoes and a few vegetables.

The Seerose house is in need of renovation. The rooms are separated by doors which are very noisy. The hotel is clean and the staff is friendly. The beds take some getting used to, too small and worn out in the single room.

We stayed in the adjacent building (Seehotel). The rooms are a bit old but absolutely clean and functional. The breakfast buffet was very good, everything you needed was there and very tasty. If something is empty, the waiter will bring it directly to your table. Particularly noteworthy is the excellent service. Due to the ferry times, we arrived at 9 a.m. and were able to move into the room straight away. It was similar when we left. Since our ferry didn't leave until 3:30 p.m., we were allowed to use the room until our departure at no extra charge.

A rock-solid house with functional and clean rooms in the second row to the promenade. What was annoying was that breakfast wasn't available until 8:00 a.m. because I already had to work.

Was placed in the next building. Everything is getting old. However, clean and tidy. Room service very efficient. Breakfast could be a little more extensive.
