    Nothing. I have really enjoyed staying at the Reederi

    Everything had a very personal touch to it without being ‘too much’. Communication was excellent, Monika really makes you feel welcome.

    Excellent facilities and host, the hotel is thoughtfully and beautifully designed. Lots of nice touches and throwbacks to the history of the building. One of the best hotels we stayed in while in Europe.

    I can’t think of any room for improvement, ut was just so well thought through

    Everything was fantastic. The host was very nice snd welcoming. The hotel is a besutifully renovated old house, with large rooms, well cleaned and with attention in every detail. The breakfast was also just wonderful, with local products and newly baked bread.

    Really nothing. Just that any hotel after this one will be a downgrade :)

    Wow, what an opening for our trip. We found the hotel by searching for a room that fits 2 adults and 3 kids, Luckily there are not many options so it made it easier to find this hotel. This is a boutique hotel with 7 rooms only, every furniture and accessory in the hotel was selected by the owner, which has a lot of experience and has amazing design vision. The family room was created this way so it will fit the owner's own family when needed, meaning -> think that the room is designed by yourself by the highest standards. The breakfast was amazing, everything was handmade. Great atmosphere and the owner gave us very good recommendations for our visit in luebeck.

    Truly Special Hotel in a Must-See City

    It is expensive, but it's worth it!

    Wonderful location in a beautiful city. The renovation of the building is perfect - glimpses of the past with all the comfort of today. Because it's a small property, you can feel the love - in creating this gorgeous hotel, in the delicious home cooked breakfast (omg, the bread!!) and in Nina's care that all her guests feel comfortable. If you are going to Lubeck (and you should go to Lubeck for the town itself and the incredible Hansa Museum), I highly recommend you stay here!

    The breakfast was incredible, freshly baked bread, amazing coffee, great service and nice products. The place was nice, the decorations. We clearly do not know how we could make it better. It is clearly the best breakfast we had in a long time.

    To be honest, there was nothing that could have been better. If I need to find one very tiny thing, it would be this. It would have been nice to have some tissues/Kleenex/Tempo in the room but now I’m really grasping to find something. The place was great.

    The hotel was perfect. It was a great location, walkable to everywhere in Lübeck. The rooms were spacious, exceptionally clean and very comfortable. Each room was named after a ship in the former Reederei. I asked for, and received, Catherine which was the name of my daughter. The owner/Reederin and her staff were incredibly friendly and hospitable. Knowledgeable about the entire area, we got wonderful tips about what to see and what to avoid along with great restaurant recommendations. Breakfast was fantastic with fresh baked bread every morning and delicious coffee and cappuccinos. I would definitely stay there again and highly recommend it.

    Absolutely nothing

    Everything was amazing!! It was such a warm, friendly, family-like atmosphere and hostess. The service level was a 10 (on a scale frm 1-10, ofc), and the room was really awesome! We loved the history of the place, the many many small spaces where there was room to relax and enjoy oneself, whether it was for games, drinks or reading a book - all in very classy settings. And the proximity to everything in the city was an absolute bonus! Highest recommendation, and we will definitely book again next time we visit - unless we've sold it too much with the recommendations ,and they will be constantly sold out😄 But I cannot go back to Lübeck again and stay at any other place.

    This is a hidden gem and a beautifully restored old townhouse that dates back to 1790. It is within walking distance of the historical areas and a quiet, peaceful place when you are returning from a busy day of sightseeing. Monica and Nina are so attentive to every need and, even at breakfast, remembered our preferences from the day before. Anyone traveling to Lubeck should consider this their destination hotel!

    This is a truly excellent small hotel. From the generously sized room, to the tasteful renovation, warm service and great breakfast, we loved our stay. We especially loved being immersed in history at this truly Hanseatic house. Even the reading room and tea kitchen had plenty of books about Lübeck and it’s past and every nook, window, decor and room detail was thoughtfully redone. Special shout out to Monika, for her authentically warm service. We highly recommend “Die Reederin”.

    Nothing. This place is worth a visit in itself. Someone who cared a lot built this hotel. It is not like anything else I have seen. Even showers were unique, made with parts from shipping containers. Spectacular play on the old days when the building housed a shipping company.

    This place is spectacular. Attention to every detail. Perfectly renovated. Super good taste. Personal service, even breakfast was unique and home made in every aspect. Wowwwwwwwww.
