The hype
Guests consistently praise the 'marvelous' breakfast buffet and friendly staff, but frequently complain about the dated decor in standard rooms.
Maritim Hotel Bonn
$130-180/ noche
Reserva esto si You're a business traveler or conference attendee who values German efficiency, a solid pool, and proximity to the UN Campus over trendy aesthetics.
Por qué a la gente le encanta
- Reliable Maritim standards with a massive indoor pool and sauna
- Excellent connectivity via the 'Robert-Schuman-Platz' tram stop right outside
- Renovated Superior rooms on floors 5-6 offer genuine comfort
Resumen rápido: A reliable, slightly dusty 1980s diplomatic fortress that delivers great sleep and breakfast but feels like stepping into a time capsule on the lower floors.
Reseñado por @globetrotwithval: I was blown away by how huge this suite was! Walking in to find champagne and local Haribo treats was such a special welcome. The mix of classic comfort in the bedroom and that sleek, modern rain shower made my stay in Bonn absolutely perfect.
Lo que dijeron los huéspedes que se hospedaron aquí
Reality check
The 'Classic' rooms on floors 1-3 are stuck in 1989—think dark wood and carpet—while the 'Superior' rooms on floors 5-6 are the modern experience you probably expect.
- You need to be close to the World Conference Center or UN Campus
- You love a proper German hotel breakfast with endless variety
- You want a full-sized indoor pool for laps, not just a plunge pool
Limpieza y Mantenimiento
8.5
- Housekeeping: Daily and generally thorough, though some guests note missed dust in older carpets.
- Bathroom hygiene: Sparkling clean, even in the older rooms. Grout and tiles are well-maintained.
- Maintenance: The building is from 1989; expect some scuffs on furniture in 'Classic' rooms and worn carpets in hallways.
- Linens & towels: Standard hotel quality—crisp white sheets, towels are plentiful but not overly plush.
- Odors & scents: Generally fresh, though some older rooms have a faint 'vintage' (musty) smell from old carpets.

Consejos de Insiders
- ✨
There is a mysterious 'electric switch' next to the TV in some older rooms that actually controls the minibar power—don't turn it off if you want cold drinks!
- ✨
The 'Brasserie' restaurant transforms into an Italian spot in the evenings, which is often better than the standard hotel bar food.
- ✨
You can walk to the 'Rheinaue' park in 5 minutes—it's huge, beautiful, and great for a morning run.
5 cosas que debes saber antes de ir
💡The 'Fridge Switch' Mystery: In older rooms, a random wall switch cuts power to the minibar.
💡The Starbucks Infiltration: The lobby café proudly serves Starbucks coffee, a rarity for this traditional German chain.
💡The 'Diplomatic Ghost Town' Vibe: On weekends, the surrounding office district is dead silent, which is great for sleep but bad for finding open shops.
💡The Sauna 'Bio' Option: Besides the hot Finnish sauna, there's a cooler 'Bio-Saunarium' (65°C) that's often empty.
💡The Piano Bar Time Warp: Live piano music on Fridays and Saturdays gives it a charmingly retro 'Love Boat' atmosphere.
