Bay of Kiel, Europe hotel rooms at the Independent

Truly exceptional. Will definitely return

We enjoyed the location and facilities. The only issue was disabled access. There are a lot of stairs. The breakfast is amazing.

The room was big and comfy. Just the pillows were too soft for me.

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

Nothing to add

The hotel has an incredible view over the Förde. The terrasse is great for enjoying the sunset and a nightcap. The location is a beautiful 20 minute walk to the harbor and downtown restaurants. Breakfast was complete and fresh with attentive and friendly staff. We will be back.

Beautiful room, clean and spacious. No free breakfast. No washcloths. Very helpful and friendly staff.

The hotel was a very pleasant surprise. The staff was very helpful and friendly and the family suite was massive and comfortable. Breakfast was excellent. I regret only having booked 1 night as we passed through the area

The entire hotel fire alarm system went off when...
