Room was too hot, airconditioning didn’t properly work.
Love the location and the lobby. It is so inviting and nice place to hangout and lively
Beautiful hotel, room was clean and sound proof, staff was very welcoming, location was perfect.
Breakfast tables were not cleaned on July 29 at all in between 7.40 and 8.00 am. There were several tables with leftover dishes from previous customers and even the tables that were "cleaned" had bread crumbs everywhere and fatty table mats from previous clients.
Hands down, this hotel has it all, location, cleanliness, comfort and value for your money. The breakfast can be better especially for the price you charge.
The room was a good size and the beds were very comfortable. However, there was hair in the shower when we checked in, which was not a pleasant first impression. We mentioned it at the reception, and since I had already cleaned it up myself, the only response we got was, “Okay, so it’s fine now?” That wasn’t the level of service we expected. In addition, the hotel was so busy that we couldn’t find a seat for breakfast. A staff member suggested that we sit on the terrace, but the weather wasn’t great, and we had a small baby with us who couldn’t sit outside. We ended up waiting almost 20 minutes for a table. I think the breakfast area could be used more efficiently, with more tables and chairs instead of so many large armchairs taking up space. We weren’t the only ones waiting for a table, and it was disappointing to look forward to a relaxing breakfast only to end up standing with our coffee. When we checked out the following day, we weren’t even asked whether we had enjoyed our stay. The receptionist simply said, “Yes, it’s fine.” Overall, the service was disappointing. In fact, I was the one who had to wish her a nice day, rather than the other way around. 😅
The hotel was fine. Very clean! Breakfast was pretty basic, no warm food
Very pleasant star in this beautifull hotel ideally located in the heart of the historic center of Lubeck
Spotlessly clean rooms, exceptionally friendly staff, and a fantastic breakfast. Everything was excellent!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this Norderney hotel in the centre of Lubeck. We found the front of house staff warm, friendly and helpful at all times. We were late coming down to breakfast because I was listening to the UK radio and thought it was nine o‘clock. The staff were so accommodating. The housekeeping staff were super efficient and helpful.
Wonderful breakfast! And my room was so clean every day. I really enjoyed my stay and I will definitely be back when visiting Lubeck.
Great ! I will come again 🤩
We had an excellent stay at Motel One Lübeck. The location is perfect—right in the city center, with all the main attractions, restaurants, and cafés just a short walk away. The hotel was exceptionally clean, the rooms were modern and comfortable, and everything was well maintained. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help, making our stay even more enjoyable. We truly appreciated the great service, the relaxed atmosphere, and the attention to detail. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend Motel One Lübeck to anyone visiting this beautiful city.
We arrived as two couples around dinner time without a reservation. We discovered that booking online was cheaper than booking directly at reception, so we made the reservation online and enjoyed a gin and tonic while waiting for it to be confirmed. The wait was absolutely worth it. The gin selection at the bar is simply outstanding. They even have a "gin bible" on the tables with around 40–50 different gins, all carefully organized by country. It's obvious that a great deal of thought and passion has gone into curating the selection. If you're a gin enthusiast, this bar alone is worth a visit. The hotel itself is very well located. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and professional. Our rooms were cozy, spotless, and well ventilated, making for a very comfortable stay. Breakfast was fresh, varied, and of high quality. We would definitely recommend this hotel and hope to return in the future.
Excellent Service, very clean, Top location, excellent breakfast
Smallish rooms, but very clean, very modern and well-maintained. Breakfast was very good for a reasonable price. Positioned very well right in the middle of the city.
Staff were unfailingly helpful and friendly even when I had made an error.
Friendly staff, perfect location
Except for location, everything else is adequate
Very nice service, perfect location downtown Lübeck, good breakfast
Small but nice rooms. Very good location. Some coffee/tea on the room would be nice. Bed was very good. Online check in was very long and we still had to go to reception and get checked in, because we had two rooms and they where not placed near each other. Breakfast was expensive considering what was included.
Top location right in the city centre. Modern and accessible to everything
Overall the hotel and room are nice and breakfast was good. The room was not ready at 15:00 when we arrived. And the bathroom always smelled a bit bad.
Superb
Silent and clean with understanding staff
Fast check-in, pleasant room, very central location. It would have been helpful to have a handle in the shower area, plus rubber non-slip strips in the shower, so giving your guests a safer stay.
Just needed a stay for the night on my way home to Sweden. Quite small room but i had everything needed, fresh, clean and good for the price. Really nice and alerte people in the reception / bar. And, very well situated.
I would recommend this hotel for the location and the friendly staff.
Lovely clean, modern, hotel in the centre of Lübeck.
During my stay, I experienced a clear lack of privacy and room quality, resulting in a poor guest experience. The room had an uncovered window facing a public/internal area, allowing direct visibility inside. The opposite side faced an unpleasant external environment, further reducing comfort. When I raised the issue, it was dismissed as not a known concern, and no practical solution was offered at first. I was initially told no room change was possible due to full occupancy, but only later offered an alternative after submitting a written complaint. Management follow-up was also delayed/missing . Overall, this reflects a lack of privacy and disregard for customer experience.
Clean, nice and indeed a very cozy place with a lovely breakfast - really wide selection of organic products. We ordered a room with a king size bed for the two of us and our daughter, but there was an extra bed in the room as well. Lovely beds and pillows - we got a really good sleep. Nice and clean room with a lovely view, big windows and the possibility to darken the room completely at night. Very quiet area. Lovely scented soaps in the bathroom - a little feeling of luxury. The staff was so friendly and serviceminded - special thanks to Eddy who saved us, when our car got locked up in the parking house. Directly in the middle of the beautiful, charming old city centre. Clean, nice toilets in the lounge area and an overall really nice vibe 😊 Only thing, that could be extra nice would be a little fridge in the room for beverages... We will definitely come back 😊
Everything was very good but I was upset that I need to make registration instead of only pay the room that was free.
Rooms are comfortable, breakfast very good. Nice to stay in the old center of the city, close to shops etc (on the other hand very quite rooms).
As a couple on holiday, we had a wonderful stay at Motel One Lübeck. The staff were attentive and friendly, the room tidy, clean and quiet
I had a great stay at the motel one. The location in the center of Lübeck is just great. And the rooms as well as the breakfast were at a standard motel one level. However, the greatest compliment belongs to the night shift at the bar. Kemal did provide service far beyond any expectations at both nights we were in the lounge at quite a late (or early) hour. His attitude was also welcoming and friendly at any hour, catering to all needs and actively checking in without being pushy in the slightest way.
We stayed in room 113. Good room, however it would be for privacy reasons even better if the windows could be partially blinded with a foil so that the curtains can be opened over the day
Room 404 We found the room very pleasant but rather too small even for a one night stay. A few more dining tables, rather than coffee tables for the older generation
SUPER
Alles super
Alles super
Great location, room a little small but was OK for a short stay. Really needs privacy/net curtains as room was very overlooked and the only way for privacy is to shut out all the natural light during the day, which was not good. Reception often left unmanned. Overall it was just OK, not bad but not outstanding either.
We enjoyed our stay in Motel One in Lübeck. Quality of the services and breakfast are very good. Location is excellent.
It was a nice stay. Comfortable beds. Good breakfasts.
Good location. Too small doubleroom. Not adequate place for suitcases. Breakfast is limited, much better at other MotelOne locations.
Really nice hotel, very central location
Super Service
Fantastic hotel. Location unbeatable. Brilliant breakfast. Modern room. Good bed. Highly recommended!! .
Again very lovely stay
Alles gut!
Central and quiet location, great staff! If I were to complain about something, the breakfast is good, but too expensive.
Switch on. beOne.
Lübeck
Motel One Lübeck – where medieval charm meets modern design
With its romantic streets, winding alleyways and gorgeous abbeys, Lübeck’s Old Town enchants visitors all year round. The affordable Motel One on the steps of the historic Town Hall is a testament to modern design that offers a compelling contrast to the surrounding medieval architecture. Situated directly in the heart of the city, our design hotel offers not only comfortable box-spring beds for spending the night, but also a space for sitting back and relaxing – a home away from home. After a good night's sleep, stock up on energy for a day in the Hanseatic city at an extensive organic breakfast buffet.
Are you in Lübeck for business? Comfortable lounge work spaces, free WiFi and a creative atmosphere are the perfect setting for inspiration and productivity. And after a long working day, you can relax in our One Lounge with a drink of your choice.
Affordable design hotels in Lübeck – your Motel One
Did you know that when UNESCO named Lübeck a world heritage site in 1987, it was the first time ever that an entire old town was given this honour? When you explore the more than 80 enchanting passageways and courtyards, you’ll quickly realise that Lübeck’s Old Town is unique across the world.
The undisputed symbol of the capital of marzipan is the Holsten Gate, which graced the 50 German mark bill back in the day and continues to represent the Lübeck cityscape. Today it’s hard to imagine that the Holsten Gate was nearly demolished to make way for the railway – an action that was prevented by a tight one-vote majority. By the way: when you visit the Holsten Gate, notice the way the two towers tilt – pretty crooked, huh? Just around the corner from the Holsten Gate are the old salt storehouses, where Lübeck’s ‘white gold’ was once kept. Today, shopaholics can find clothing boutiques in the impressive complex. Enjoy a great view of the Holsten Gate and the salt storehouses while lunching on the banks of the Trave. The other side of the river also offers unique views – there’s a reason this area bears the nickname Malerwinkel (‘painter's angle’).
Nobel Prize winners, fairtrade shopping and marzipan
In addition to its fascinating Old Town, Lübeck has been home to three Nobel Prize winners. While Willy Brandt and Thomas Mann were born in the Hanseatic city, Günter Grass moved to Lübeck later in life.
Lübeck may not be as big a trade hub as it was during the Middle Ages, but it can now call itself a fairtrade hub. It has held the title of Fair Trade Town since 2012, with restaurants, cafés, hotels and individual retailers promoting global fairtrade – another thing to feel good about in Lübeck.
Want to get to know the culinary side of the Hanseatic city? A visit to Lübeck isn’t complete without tasting its famous marzipan. Lübeck Marzipan is even EU-protected and is distinguished by certain quality principles.
