We had an apartment in the next building. The view directly of the harbor and dune is fantastic.The equipment is perfect: refrigerator, two-burner stove, coffee machine and kettle, toaster, dishes, cutlery and pots - everything is sufficient. The apartment is pleasantly divided into a bedroom and a living room, so that you don't disturb each other even if you sleep at different times.The breakfast in the main building was good, the staff was very friendly and accommodating.We'd love to come back!

The hotel is located right on the water and super central. This means you always have a great view of the sea and the harbors. We had the room at the back of the house. But what shines with is a small, cute terrace and lots of space.The service was super friendly. The breakfast was plentiful and varied. The breakfast room has a view of the sea and there is enough space on the terrace in front of the building to relax from the hustle and bustle.The rooms were clean and well equipped.We felt comfortable and would love to come back.

The Hotel Rungholt is excellent. The employees and the boss are very nice and helpful. The rooms are clean, very nicely decorated and the beds are perfect. The location is prime. We really liked it, and if we came to Heligoland again we would only stay at the Hotel Rungholt. Thank you for everything!
