Very nice hotel in Konstanz

Review of Hotel Alte Post
5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Aug 3, 2024
We planned to stay one night in Konstanz and we found this place in Tripadvisor. The hotel is located in the center right opposite from the train station. From the outside we expected a more traditional older style inside. But the room was very stylish, modern and surprisingly big. We liked the stay and the friendly staff. A good choice and we will come back.

This hotel is perfect in every way, location, cleanliness and service. We arrived later than expected due to a train delay but it was all super straightforward to check in at the sister hotel two doors down. Great service from the guy who helped us there also.

The room was great, spacious, clean and a super comfy bed, much needed after a long journey. The location is perfect, a one minute walk across from the station and Central to restaurants of konstanz.

The person on reception when we left was really helpful too, all in all would definitely recommend staying here. A great night's sleep with great service.

My husband and I did a bike tour around Lake Konstanz and stayed at this and other hotels that were arranged by the bike tour company. This is a historical building, across from the train station and near the big pedestrian only shopping area. The building is stark, cement floors and dark furniture, though very clean and modern. The breakfast is very good. Despite the positive points, I would never want to stay there again. One receptionist we had to deal with at the start and end of our bike tour was unfriendly, had a frown on and did little to help us. The simple act of smiling at guests when they arrive can be a game changer in making guests feel welcomed and secure that they can get the information they need. Others behind the reception desk were young, inexperienced and seemed like they just arrived at their job and could not provide us with information we needed.

Room tip: Book this hotel for convenient location, value and cleanliness. It is not a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

Beautifully refurbished hotel right in the centre of town and only a couple of hundred metres from the lake and landing stages. You just step out of the back door and you are in the plaza for shops and restaurants. Bahnhof is close but not disruptive
Super room (and bathroom) over-looking a quiet square.
Staff were very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend for visiting delightful Constance

Room tip: Book a room over-looking the square to the rear for quiet.

We were booked at Alte Post by a bike tour agent. We stayed 2 nights at the beginning of our bike trip around Lake Constance and 1 night at the end of the trip. The rooms are on the smaller side as is typical for European rooms, but they are well organized and very clean. The bathrooms were nice and exceptionally clean. Breakfast was included in the stay and it was really good. They had a wide variety of options. The front desk staff were very nice and helpful. The location of this hotel is just across from the train station in Konstanz and is right in old town with lots of restaurants and shopping. I would recommend Alte Post. :)

Room tip: Just across from the train station

Very nice building, updated decore, very clean, comfortable bed, great location right in front of the train station. Comfort Plus with the lake view is mainly the train tracks & only a tiny bit of lake.

Breakfast is at another hotel. Front desk closes at 7pm. No tea or coffee in the room, no phone to call front desk as well.
Untrained front desk staff. It's apparent the staff were trained by someone who never managed an international hotel; more like a family runned B&B in a village. The hotel owner should invest in sending the staff to hospitality schools. Slow check in process, missed items at check in & giving bad information.
