Bay of Kiel, Europe hotel rooms at the Independent

"Gut"

" Poor cushions otherwise good!"

"Staff very friendly. Lovely cafe. Clean room. "

"The room assigned me was on the first floor; except for a sleeper car on a train I have not slept in such a small room. The presence of ear plugs did not bode well either. But even though a Christmas Markt was being held just outside of my window, I did not hear anything, and the blackout curtains prevented light from being an issue. The room had just enough things for an hotel room to be functional: no obligatory alarm clock, no abundance of drawers that no one uses. It was very austere and pleasant."

"1970's vibe but in good way."

"Great hotel, pleasant and hard working reception staff with amazing harbour and pier views. Rooms were good size and amenities were ok. Good choices of Fish restaurants nearby and some shopping area near the pier. Recommendedbto stay more than 1 day. "

"Spa, breakfast, so close to the beach "

"The hotel needs a renovation but it is clean. "

"Beautiful location right on the beach with great bikes (e-bike and standard) to easily hire. Highly recommend. The breakfast buffet was excellent."
