Historik Hotel Garni Christinenhof

Christinenhof is located in the middle of Hamlens old town, to get there you have to drive through narrow alleys but it is not hard to find. We arrived late in the afternoon on Whitday and got a warm welcome at the front desk. German efficiency, so in ten minutes the car was parked, we had a map of the city and the "Rattenfänger" fairy tale (in brief) in Swedish in our hands. We were lucky and got the Hochzeitszimmer (no 28), a well-furnished corner-room overlooking a picturesque streetcorner with halftimbered houses along the alleys. We went out for a walk in Hamelns old town and it was so nice. The old part of the town underwent a restoration in the eighties and nineties and is full of halftimbered houses, lots of references to the Rattenfänger fairytale and historical events. Off course there is a Glockenspiel and you can cross the Weser river to a small island and enjoy good food, wine and beer in one of the outdoor restaurants. We had a wonderful evening and the next morning we enjoyed the breakfast that included honey from the owners private behive, homemade yoghurt, leberwurst (also homemade). All through it was german hospitality and friendliness. Be sure to visit Hameln and when you go there, stay at Christinenhof!

The staff were just so nice, lovely place.

Virtually all of the historical points of interest as well as dozens of great restaurants are within a few minutes walk from the front door. Rooms were quiet and high quality. My room on the third floor had plenty of space. The breakfast was 4-star (a buffet of varied items such as devilled eggs, smoked fish rolls, sausage and they offed eggs to order as well). The staff could not have been more helpful. For the modest rates it is a steal. Highly recommended.

The staff were friendly and helpful, and the hotel was beautiful and in a great location. We loved the look and feel of the hotel. Near the train station, Hameln felt like a normal city, but this hotel and the old town feels like what you envision Hameln should be. I was looking forward to this visit, and it exceeded all my expectations. And the breakfast at the hotel was incredible. Definitely make sure to eat there.

The building is beautiful in the old town and yet it has its own parking for guests. The staff are eager to please and recommended some delightful places to eat. Our bedroom was spacious, comfortable and very clean. The top score must go to the breakfast chef. I recommend other hotels should visit to see how to create the best breakfast.

Excellent hotel in a half-timbered historic building in Hamelin Old Town, very close to main areas of interest. Our room was very nicely modern inside, comfortable bed and large clean bathroom. Breakfast was an adventure for the taste buds - traditional choices, healthy, plus a selection of innovative taste combinations. Excellent.
