Helgoland-Dune

The hotel was nice, bus stop outside and train station a few stops away although walkable. Breakfast was okay, hot and cold food although hot food is limited and not replenished enough during breakfast hours. From my observation, the dining area can be a bit messy with food on the floor that is not cleaned up efficiently but the limited staff on the floor do work hard to clear tables. My room was “cleaned” but I noticed they didn’t change the sheets because there was a mark on my pillow before I left the room and came back to it. The shower area is open plan so be cautious if you want a bit of privacy but the toilet is separate. The mini bar was stocked with apple juice, a lemon and a berry drink, sparkling and still water as well as a kettle and some teas which is restocked daily so that was nice. If you want to food from outside the hotel, you would either have to walk or take public transport/taxi as there is not really any restaurants local, I walked to Edeka supermarket which was well equipped for things you may need. There’s a fuel station across the road from the hotel as well. Checkout is 11am but I paid €15 to extend until 12. Overall, it was decent and in a quiet area.

The hotel met an important locational need and is convenient for the Stadtpark (which is well worth visiting at any time of year but especially in the autumn) as well as a U-bahn station to get into the City Centre. The rooms are good, clean and tidy and the breakfasts are very good indeed, staff have always been friendly (I have stayed there a number of times now). Underground parking is worth paying for as there are little or no spaces on-street. The street itself is quiet.

Breakfast was amazing
