Covid blown out of proportion! False advertisement
Posted 2 Sep 2020 on HotelsWell well, Travelling a lot during covid you experience quiet something but nothing takes the prices as this hotel. First of all they advertise that their spa is fully open again- well it’s open but only one sauna I function - no showers - and you only get a 20 minute time slot to manage both spa and pool !!
Same with restaurant - where you in advance have to book a table for breakfast and dinner, and if you arrive like us mid afternoon - there’s only the really inconvenient time slots available.
We stayed in this hotel many times before and was always very happy about all , but they have taken covid to an unpresidented level that has no ground in recommendations nor legislation. To narrow it down, all that used to be a commodity is gone - all that you pay is still fully functional.

Dear Camilla, thank you very much for your feedback. We regret that you were not satisfied with your stay this time. In fact, 2 saunas and our tepidarium were open at this point. In order to enable all our guests to use the wellness area in compliance with the measures, a reservation is necessary for the pool and separately for the saunas. If available, multiple use per day is also possible. In order to avoid our guests waiting for breakfast due to the currently reduced number of seats, a reservation was also necessary here. We hope for your understanding that we will adhere to the guidelines in order to be able to continue to be there for our guests and we would like to see you again soon. Many greetings from the Birke, Florian Buchebner

Great hotel. Far enough from the city to be quiet and peaceful, but only 10-15 minutes drive to city center. Staff was excellent, and the hotel and rooms were clean. I would highly recommend and would stay here again for my next visit to Kiel.
