    The reception is often non-accessible… at least when we tried.

    It’s in a remote place, quite nice and quiet there… actually very quiet.

    The breakfast was a bit simple. We were missing eg yoghurt and sweets.

    Spacious room with great view. The hotel is a project to give young people experience who have some distance to the labor market which is a great initiative.

    Booked a room for 4 adults. Was only a double room. 2 ok normal single beds, but then the sofa plus sofa table plus big chair were squeezed to the side and two foldable beds squeezed into the room so really difficult to maneuver around in the room as now way too tight. Plus the one bed cookies collapsed 2 times so at the end we put the mattress directly on the floor. The rest was fine

    Beautiful buildings and very good breakfast. Nice views.

    btw - I wrote various time arriving late re key - staff confirmed by mail that reception would be open and key there. I cam think 22.30ish - got into reception - but no key planted for me. Walked behind the counter and found where keys were supposed to be - my key no 106 was not there. Back to the door to the room again - no key. Back again to reception - still no envelope nor key in sight. Nobody picking up on the emergency phone no - trying various times. Was lucky to find a group of people still awake - one lady was nice to help. She was a regular with yoga and thought she knew where to find the key. Again back to reception and there she knew about a drawer with an envelope with my name + room no 106 and finally a key. Not really well organized not to put it on the counter or inform me where to look. Was tired after flying half of the day and just been driving 500 km from Hamburg and now wasted more than 30 minutes. Please note for future guests and tell staff. But still nice place and good value - will maybe be back

    Some lack of feedback how to get in when arriving 23-00.00 hours in a snow storm as mentioned in advance. We found the note by coincidence they had left for us at front desk as no one was picking up the phone and super many entrances and hard to find our way in with the wind and snow in our faces. But all turned out well and good.

    Big parking lot and big room and super nice fresh breakfast

    A monastery not so quiet.

    The hotel is quite basic with facilities. Paper cups on our bathroom. Some dust webs around the windows and floors make a lot of noise when you walk. Though this is probably normal for a monastery. We booked 3 rooms for our group. The other 2 were ok on the other side of the building. We were not lucky to have a room right under the caffee/ social room. A group of pensionists were having a party right above our room until midnight. We could not sleep as everytime they walk and move chairs made a lot of noise with the kind of wood floor in this building including the talking. Bad sound proofing. My husband had to go to sleep in the car parked outside far from our room until it became quite. Or else without this incident of partying above us, we will recommend the place if you want something relaxing and different. Food buffet was good. Sea view but not right outside as I thought from the picture. One of the reason we booked was the idea it was just outside.The sea is far from the hotel..

    The place, the atmosphere, the food.

    there was nothing we did not like, but we would love to be able to have dinner in the lovely breakfast restaurant.

    I don't usually book Danhostal, but as I love the castles and old buildings, we had to visit to see it. We were very positive and surprised. Now, the review is to be seen in the light it is a Danhostal, not a 5-star hotel. I must express my positive experience. A beautiful place. Super service and kind staff. Amazing breakfast room. Caffe, etc., available 24/7. We appreciate it atay a lot and give it our warmest recommendations

    I have been calling to the hotel several times, all day and no one picked up the phone. Couldn't reach them. I didn't stay at the hotel because no one was there to meet me. I would to get a full refund of the money.

    Excellent location... I have always wanted to stay in a monastery and seep into the spiritual energy. This place is really out this world. Simply amazing... The openness that you enjoy from your window is purely exceptional. The herb garden is a wonderful spot to enjoy the bounty of nature. The breakfast buffet is in Monk's cellar, it is such a tranquil place to start your day and the common room with the historical fireplace and chandeliers is the best place to have your dinner. The room was spacious, the ceilings are so high -nothing that you can find in modern day buildings. The long beach and the forest behind offer beautiful walking trails. The whole staff was amazing; the warm welcome of Mikolaus and the last day farewell from Kasper made our hearts smile 💖 We definitely would like to come back.

    There was no staff. We arrived and found an envelope with my name and the key. We were the only guests. It felt like we were dropped and we were on a scavenger hunt. In the morning we had breakfast which was fine, but again no staff. Only when we checkend out and dropped the key there was someone behind a desk. After a few minutes he said "you are good to go" and that was it. Didn't feel welcome at all. I thanked them for our stay and he said "you're welcome". I don't want to talk for hours, but a few words when you arrive and when you leave are the bare minimum. Especially for this price you would expect more service.

    The building and the location are great.
