Hotels near Knielinger See, Karlsruhe

This is a old fashioned split level apartment. The bedroom is upstairs, accessible by a half staircase which may be difficult to manage for elderly people or those with limited mobility. Even for the sprightly care must be taken when descending in the night, eg to go to the bathroom. Otherwise the bedroom is nice, with a tv and a skylight. Downstairs the half-staircase ends in the little hallway with suitcase rack, a tiny bathroom with a tiny shower (old german style), and a small kitchenette with microwave and two hobs and refrigerator. The provided crockery and pots were clean and everything worked ok. The front room is a small sitting room with tv, two rather worn (with peeling plastic covers) chairs, and two tables. There was also a very small balcony with two plastic chairs. So everything was there, it was just a bit old fashioned and some things were a bit worn. Overall however it was clean and functional.

The location is very good, because not in the city but also not too far from the city. The cinema is also not far. Breakfast is sufficient and for everyone there. Rooms are beautiful and well equipped, but unfortunately there is no closet where you can eventually stack the bag. But is actually no problem, there is a clothes or something like clothes. The bathroom offers a furnace, hygiene bag, towels and shampoo with shower gel. The staff is very friendly and helpful. There are enough parking facilities next to the hotel and nearby.

Every time we pass through Karlsruhe we stay here - the atmosphere is great, staff are wonderful, breakfast is included and many other perks for free (that other hotels have since long stopped providing), fantastic rooms, and even jogging route suggestions. And then the location - so central, easy parking and great shopping, walks and eating possibilities just on your doorstep. Warmly recommended!

My wife commented this was one of the nicest rooms we have stayed in on our many trips to Europe as she walked in the room. Humidity affects her hair and there was no exhaust fan in the bathroom to remove the excess humidity. Fortunately, there was a plug outside the bathroom with a big mirror on the opposite wall. unfortunately, the bar was eyelevel, but it worked. On day two, the plug did not work. For both of us, it was very, very difficult to find the right spot between too cold and too hot for the shower. Once found it was ok, till someone, somewhere, caused the water to be scalding hot. I personally remember getting burned at least 3 times. Other than these items, showers and getting ready in the morning, the place was great. The arrival staff was superb, especially Tom. The maid was also very helpful about the plug. She brought her vacuum down to test the plug. It was head. She went out of her way for service. When we spoke about the plug at the front desk, one lady said, technicians in on Monday. Someone else heard the conversation and gave us an extension cord which we could plug into the bathroom and use outside the room. Very helpful. Great Bar service and the dinner salad dressing was superb. The bed was much better in terms of support than the bed at the Mercure in St. Germain En Laye. With the tram stop right outside, hotel is very convenient. The 5 steps Up / Down are not friendly with luggage or handicap. We were also in a remodeled room and it was nice. The glass hiding the coffee cups is inconvenient and finding the hot water pot was difficult to find at first. I hope they get the hot water fixed as I would want to stay again.

Reise meine Frau unser Hund und ich. das Hotel liegt wie alle InterCity Hotels nahe Bahnhof Karlsruhe. Es ist eines der neuen Hotel der H-Rewards Gruppe. Das Hotel und die Zimmer sind sehr modern. Alles halt noch neu und modern. Bequeme Betten und sehr gutes Badezimmer. Viele haben geschrieben, die Lüftung Badezimmer sehr laut. Dies scheint man inzwischen in Griff bekommen zu haben. Auch gutes TV mit vielen Programmen. Frühstück habe ich als Goldmember Inklusive und für meine Frau einen Gutschein. Ist Gut, aber könnte besser sein. Da hat es mir im InterCity Dresden besser gefallen. Aber ich denke mehr wegen Personal mangel. Ich bin Gold Status Member. Wir sind angekommen und wurden etwas trocken empfangen, gleich mit dem Vermerk es geht noch nicht. Ja ist mir klar gewesen. Wollte nur meinen Koffer abgeben, und wir sind dann unseren Ausflug machen gegangen. Als wir um 17Uhr ins Hotel gekommen sind, wurden wir eingecheckt. Ich habe extra um late check out gebeten, was uns auch bestätigt wurde. Als wir in das Zimmer gekommen sind, mussten wir feststellen, dass: 1) Das Zimmer nur für eine Person eingerichtet wurde (Eine Bettdecke, ein Kopfkissen, ein Handtuch). 2) Goldmember kein Begrüßung goodies vorhanden. Sind schon enttäuscht gewesen. Habe dies an der Rezeption bemängelt. Ja wir haben dann alles nachbekommen, aber es ist sehr schade. Man hat mir gesagt, Personalmangel. Verstehe ich auf der einen Seite, aber wenn es die Stammkunden Gold oder auch die Platin Kunden zu spüren bekommen, ist dies echt nicht gut. Ich habe daher mal einen Punkt abgezogen. Aber man hat die Frust anderer Gäste an der Rezeption live noch mitbekommen. So hat sich ein anderer Gast beschwert. Vor allen die dastanden. Ich hätte diesen freundlich nach hinten gebeten und es geklärt. Wie gesagt. Modern und neu. Aber es ist Luft nach oben.

I was originally staying at another hotel for the duration of my holiday to visit some friends in Karlsruhe, but ended up getting the dates mixed and needed an extra night at a hotel. The price for the one night stay I had was really affordable, and it was not a long way from my friends. Even if the stay was only for one night, the hotel and the room itself was really nice! The staff was nice and helpful as well, which made my check-in and check-out very pleasant! The area was nice and quiet, and I really enjoyed my stay at the hotel considering it was only for one night!

Plus: + Value for money as such but largely depending on what deal one can make. + Reception - friendly and efficient. + City Center + Public transport (with a trade off - see under minus) + Breakfast OK but just + Bar service - coffee service excellent + Room very good equipped + Clean + Excellent but expensive garage-parking. Minus: - The Airconditioning is a bad joke! Does not work but they offer you a (good working) ventilator instead! - Avoid if possible the rooms at the frontside corner. A continuous flow of traffic and loud Trams are passing. It’s impossible to open a window without running the risk of hearing damage!

Guter Standard, genau was zu erwarten ist von einem Holiday Inn Express. Frühstück ist auch in Ordnung, nichts überragendes aber gut und ausreichend. Rezeption/ Service sehr freundlich. Die Zimmer sind ausreichend groß und modern eingerichtet. Sauber. Auch wegen der guten, verkehrsgünstigen Lage werde ich erneut einkehren.

Sehr schönes Hotel, super modern. Beim Check in dauerte es sehr lange, die Schlange war schon ziemlich lang bis endlich mal eine zweite Person an die Rezeption kam. Später am Abend haben wir uns unten eine Flasche Wasser gekauft - 6 Euro für 1 Liter stilles Wasser sorry ist einfach zu teuer - sind damit dann aufs Zimmer und mussten feststellen, dass es nicht mal Gläser auf dem Zimmer gab. Also zwei Gläser gehören meiner Meinung nach zur Grundausstattung und eine Flasche Wasser auch.
