This is a very old and outdated hotel. However, that being said, it was very clean and comfortable. The staff were very nice as well. It is also located in a great walkable area.
Pleasant stay overall! Very clean and comfortable except that the beds were very very firm/hard. Also the A/C seems more like a fan than traditional cooling. Fortunately the weather was cool and breezy so we were able to open the windows.
Fabulous friendly hotel. We stayed in a brand new room which was clean, comfortable and spacious. €10 for an Über to the Altstadt. Parking is opposite the main entrance or under the hotel.
Good garage, quiet location and decent restaurant (for the evening meal). Friendly staff. Place is a bit old but clean and well maintained. Room was large.
We chose the ZUM SCHIFF twice as a stop on our way to Holland and back to Italy.
Excellent stay
Excellent dinner and breakfast
Fresh meal always just cooked
Simple and effective hotel where nothing is missing from what you would like to have
Fantastic! Good location easily accessible from the Autobahn, a very nice and tidy hotel with own parking garage, good restaurant, biergarten and last but not least, a very nice and friendly staff

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff is very friendly and professional. The building is a bit outdated, as are some of the rooms. Our room was comfortable but had long sienna brown shag carpet throughout. The back garden has been given over to construction materials as it seems they were at one point updating part of the building (scaffolding remains). The parking was very convenient and there is a bus stop immediately in front that takes you downtown (about 30 minutes away). The breakfast was a good value. Dinner was good but overpriced.
Even though I only had a small room with a small bed, and that's what I wanted, it was very spacious and had everything you could possibly need. I could really tell that the staff understands travelers and what they are looking for when they check in exhausted after long train rides or flights. It was a convenient ride from the HBF, not quite in the main business district, so not as noisy even though I was right on a main street.
I had a lot of luggage and a small dog. The facilities were perfect. There was a full-length mirror to check the damage after a day of walking, the shower was divine, the drinking water tasted delicious right out of the tap, and the room was spacious and very comfortable, I didn't feel cramped at all. Short walks revealed lots of coffee shops and places to buy snacks. It was also a very convenient 25-minute walk on pedestrian walkways to the Europcar outlet.
They held my baggage for me for a few hours while I was picking up my car and exploring the neighborhood. I would stay there again in a heartbeat and it looks like I probably will on my way back!
Strongly recommended. For the same price in the US, in a small city, you would be hard-pressed to find such a clean and convenient hotel. The bar and restaurant looked inviting, so next time I will visit. Everything you need is right there! We loved it!
My second stay here. Came back for the restaurant. Unfortunately this time i was physically threatened by the waiter - twice - first in the restaurant and then in the reception. I will not be back.
