Detmerode Holidays from NZ$4,185

Was my last stop of a 5 city Christmas market. Was about 25 min walk from the main train station but only 10 min to the christmas market. Room was spacious and quiet.Staff was friendly and helpful. Had a very nice 3 night stay.

We checked in and out with a real person which was welcoming. The hotel was clean and efficient in a great area with lots of local shops and cafes and bars to get food, with fantastic transport links and easy access to the Eilenriede wooded pathways where you can walk/cycle from one end of the city to the other. We chose the hotel to be near to friends in the area. If you arrive much after midnight either on arrival or after an evening out, then you have to ring the doorbell to be let in. We were pleased there was some security but felt that this could be done better as it wasn’t always clear that the bell had rung and sometimes the staff were slow to respond. Breakfast was a large array of hot and cold savoury and sweet buffet style. All nicely presented. Bedrooms were well proportioned with excellent storage, the option of a minibar fridge (buy in contents) and options of other hotel facilities. Large screen tv. We had a twin room and I found the bed a bit firm for my liking and the bedding felt a bit over-starched or rough. But it was comfortable enough. We also had a window which opened on a security latch as well as air-conditioning though couldn’t cool the room below 18 degrees at night. Bathroom had a lovely rainfall shower with alternative flexible showerhead. All was clean. All information regarding hotel was found on TV menu so it lacked the personal touch a bit as we weren’t told anything more about the facilities in person apart from breakfast. Lovely hotel.

FANTASTIC everything

Friendly staff, historic building, great location
