Steigenberger Inselhotel, Konstanz

If you happen to visit Konstanz, this is the place to stay. Very close to the city center, to the train station and mostly with a stunning position over the beautiful lake. The hotel is very well kept, very clean and with a very unique atmosphere elegantly put together. The staff is second to none, very very welcoming and attentive. Food was excellent and breakfast is fantastic. You will have a wonderful stay here, do not miss out!

This is a hotel of superlatives: wonderful staff throughout, excellent breakfasts and lunch, comfortable bed and room which are well-furnished, quiet. It’s a historic building but not in the Old Town (Altstadt), half-timbered sort. It’s a former Klöster. It’s also direct on Bodensee. I only wish I stayed when I could have enjoyed the private beach and the Seerestaurant Terrace. This is my 4th Steigenberger hotel. They are outstanding properties. This one is no exception. Kudos to the entire Steigenberger Inselhotel Team! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Zeppelin Bar is amazing, the best bar tender in the world. He surprised us with vodka souer and smoked mule (specially prepared for us). The breakfast is served next to the lake, and you can reserve window seats. The sunrise in winter is amazing.

The hotel itself is beautiful, full of history and quiet. Definitely not for the young ones who wants to party at night. This hotel is clean and the staff are very attentive and generous with their excellent service. The view facing the lake is something to behold, esp the sunrise. Theres a small spot where you can go swim in the lake but one must be a strong swimmer to do so as the lake as a strong current. Drinks in the room are included. Robe and slippers are provided. Cleaners come early, mine shows up at 8am :) You can request many different types of pillow. Otherwise I enjoyed my stay and meetings here. Really beautiful place, esp for couples who wants to go away in a quiet spot.

Let me start by outlining that we have been to this hotel quite a number of times the last years. It excels with its position right at the waterfront of Konstanz. The rooms partially offer stunning views of the lake and the terrace was always a nice place to sip a drink or have a good lunch/dinner.|That’s about it talking about the positive aspects of this hotel today.|Not only you would expect something special looking at the prices they are asking for, they are today not even able to deliver on the basics.|Some examples: although we had an upgrade voucher for a Suite this time, the room was rather small, but the biggest problem: it was shabby and dirty. Mold in the bathroom, broken cosmetic mirror, sink not working properly, no single corner of the room you really wanted to have a closer look at, the bed old and tired as well and in miserable optical condition, floor scratched and dirty - the list goes on.|The potential jewel, the terrace, is managed badly: breakfast was served by friendly junior staff, but apparently at the beginning of their training and with no supervision, resulting in a load of uncleaned tables, wesps all over the place with jam and honey pots placed along the sides as an attempt to get rid of them, etc - not a place to feel comfy.|I stop it here with my personal highlight: on the first evening I received an email from the hotel general manager, asking about my satisfaction. I answered expressing my dissatisfaction and asking for a change of room. I was promptly promised to hear back at short notice - after 2 days I received this morning when checkin out a standard reply with the usual BlaBla.|Unfortunately every experience I made during my last 2 days felt like a rip-off. They are apparently milking this place as longs as that works. For us it certainly has been the last visit.|Please avoid to be ripped off and choose some other nice places around, like the Riva Hotel or 47 Grad, just to name 2 good alternatives.||I want not to miss to praise the junior staff in training. They are apparently left alone with a rather unpleasant situation and are still trying to do their very best, despite we could witness a couple of situations where there have been criticized harsh by apparently more senior staff. Unfortunately it rather sounded like accuses than training. Guys: it’s because of you that this review is voted with 2 stars instead of one! Chapeaux.

I had a great time at this hotel. First of all, it is beautiful! It was a monastery that has been turned into a hotel. I thought the decorations and furnishings were appropriate for the theme. We ate at the hotel restaurant a few times and the food was always very good. Also, sitting by the water to eat our meals was so lovely! The staff was very helpful, we had one waitress who was absolutely fantastic at dinner one evening. The location of this hotel couldn't be better, beautiful lakefront property. I would come back here in a heartbeat!

Very great hotel in a great location. The services are high class. Really enjoyed the stay. Will certainly come back to Steigenberger again.

Unique hotel in a former monastery, on an island 🏝close to city center. Terrace with astonishing views view of the lake. It has a gym, conference rooms and spacious rooms (including coffee ☕ and tea 🍵) Highly recommended 👍🏽 😀
