“Fabulous friendly hotel to ride on the Molli steam railway and explore the area”
Fabulous location to enjoy the Molli steam train which runs close past the hotel’s front entrance! The hotel building is grand and welcoming with a superb breakfast available. The centre of Bad Doberan is interesting walking distance to many food choices for dinner. Best of all, the staff at the hotel are super friendly. We will stay longer next time.

“For a short break in Bad Doberan this hotel is hard to fault - it's roomy, clean and comfortable wit”
The location is just perfect with the steam-hauled trains of the 'Molli' passing the front of this hotel which was once owned by Grand Duke Friedrich Franz I (Royal conncections!). It is very close to the town's charming facilities and historic attractions, not least of which is the enormous brick-built 13th century Cistercian Münster which is constructed on a truly monumental scale and seems totally out of scale to the town. The Hotel is clean, comfortable, convenient while delightful staff and a fantastic breakfast all helped make this a lovely and enjoyable stay in the attractive and historic town of Bad Doberan. Car parking is in its private car park at the back of the hotel and the hotel issues a ticket to put in the windscreen - I suspect they have had trouble with non-residents taking up space. We drive an EV and fortunately were able to plug the car in to a socket in the bedroom by passing the cable through the window as our room was in the rear building, on the ground floor next to the car park. Incidentally, it is well worth taking a trip on the train of the Mecklenburgische Bäderbahn (or Molli) which uniquely runs through the main street of Bad Doberan before heading over the countryside to Kühlungsborn, a pleasant and popular seaside resort. It's truly astonishing to see a 14-coach steam-hauled train on the 900mm-gauge line gingerly threading its way through the street cafes, pedestrians, bikes and cars - warning bell dinging and whistle warning those who are slow to get out of the way.
