Hotel Brenner

The air conditioning didn’t work, forcing us to open windows onto a noisy street, making sleep difficult. The room was outdated and in need of renovation, and the property felt more like a B&B than a hotel. The images on their website did not match the outdated reality we encountered. Overall, a very underwhelming experience.

The Hotel Brenner in Koblenz is a fabulous hotel. It's located in a rather quiet area of the said city, specifically in Rizzastraeße. The building housing the hotel is relatively modern solid construction and apparently sound proof. The room which was allocated to us is very spacious, very peaceful and comfortable, especially the bed, whose matters had the right toughness to assure a good sleep. The room consists of two parts: that where the bed lies and a living-like area with a coach and armchairs for resting and talking while having a tea before going to bed. Everything is formidable. Besides, the room has a nice view over the garden. The bath room is also comfortable. Notwithstanding that, there is no shower tray in the shower cabin. That makes one need to place the shampoo and other flasks on the floor upon having a shower, to the detriment of the comfort and the convenience of the guests. The breakfast is fabuous. There is a free-buffet including everything needed to keep going for a long time during the day. Besides, it's not expensive. The hotel staff members are great, very kind and helpful, both at the reception and at the breakfast room. This is very well decorated, with much taste and has also a nice view over the garden, of which one can enjoy while having that gorgeous breakfast. Therefore, the hotel in question is absolutely a recommendable one to stay whenever one goes to Koblenz.

This is a delightful hotel, walkable both from the train station and the main tourist spots. Our room was very spacious. Breakfast was very good. We can only give four stars because on arrival our safe showed a 'low battery' warning. We immmediately reported this and were told that housekeeping would deal with the issue. Unfortunately this did not happen during our two day stay there.

The hotel is in a good location, less than a 10 minute stroll from the train station and 15 minutes to major attractions and the town centre. There’s plenty of restaurants and bars within a short walk, 15 minutes tops cover most of the town centre. The centre is very lively if that’s what you are after. The staff were very friendly and accommodating apart from when I requested some ice for drinks and was told ‘It is not possible, it is not normal’. However when I asked a different lady on another night she went and fetched some from a local restaurant , good service. Our room was good, one floor up at the back of hotel facing the garden, quiet and spacious. On the down side the TV was small and there was no English language channels. There were a few, like CNN showing on the list but they weren’t tuned.I know we don’t go on holiday to watch TV but it’s nice to have the option of the news or a film late at night. Another problem for me was no mini fridge in the room, I like a cold drink on a hot day. Last complaint, the bathroom was large, clean, well appointed but the shower was terrible, perhaps the lowest pressure shower we’ve ever encountered in a hotel. It took me about 15 minutes under a dribble of water to get anywhere near clean. The shower and ice are minor problems. Breakfast was very good, a nice selection of cereals, fruit, yoghurt, cold cuts of meat and cheese and a hot option of eggs and bacon. I had fried eggs cooked to order but scrambled and boiled were available. There was also a good selection of bread and cakes all served in a very nice room overlooking the garden. All in all I enjoyed our stay and would probably stay again if returning to Koblenz.

We have just enjoyed a 2 night stay here and it was simply excellent. The rooms were spacious, comfortable and spotlessly clean. The staff were extremely helpful at all times and the quality of the breakfast could not be faulted in any way. It is a good 10 minute walk to the Old Town and 15 minutes to the Rhine water front. Having said that there were a couple of very good restaurants just minutes from the hotel. The fact the dog was so welcomed and we could park our car, were among the reasons for choosing to stay here, but we would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone. Way better than it’s 3 star rating.

We wanted a hotel for 2 adults with young son and parking for rental car. Surprisingly there weren’t many options for Koblenz but this hotel had some good TA ratings. It was easy to find. Parking was in a private park close by the hotel. The room was a good size for the three of us. The beds were very comfortable and the bathroom suitably equipped with good shower pressure. Breakfast was included and had lots of options. If we didn’t eat so we’ll the night before we’d have an appetite for frühstück.
