Best Hotels near Laveshaus, Hannover

Room was dirty! Toilet was broken. They had a children group in the hotel (but its actually hostel) those kids were drunk, we informed the reception but they didn’t change the room, promised to stop singing (group of kids were singing everywhere, corridors, rooms) all hotel was full with drunk children, we informed reception but reaction was ZERO. Property looks so old, its a real hostel, dirty, housekeepers were speaking to each other so loud they woke us up at 7 am, reception next day even did not apologize, I had a feeling like they are unhappy with their job, they look so sad & indifferent. housekeeping…. Probably they don’t have. Look at the pictures & you will guess. Atmosphere is definitely depressive! Mostly because staff is so unhappy. Oh welcome…. They don’t know what is welcome, they even don’t know why they work there. So my suggestion is DON’T BOOK this hostel!!!!

Situated at the old cargo trainstation of Hannover this NYCE is a good stay when you are looking for a non thrill basic, but comfortable stay, room #809 on the highest floor is rather small with a excellent view over Hannover. bathroom was on the smaller side too. i fitted barely inside shower. a short 15 min walk to Hannover train station and close to the Barok gardens and public transports. Young and friendly staff, helpful and correct.

It feels harsh writing this review as this hotel is well put together, clean and I went during time of COVID when they were clearly just opening up, I may also stay here again the next time I come to Hannover BUT this experience was somewhat disappointing. Firstly issue was that when we arrived, it took 20-30 minutes before I saw anyone who could help me check in. During check-in (the guy who eventually arrived didn't really seem to know how to use their computer systems) they moved my payment to a different section which led to them asking me about 3/4 times during my stay for payment despite the fact I had already paid and had evidence of it. In fact, this slowness (during a quiet time for the hotel) was a factor many times. Over and over again people disappeared and there was no one on the front desk or around to help. When I got to our room I wanted to call to the desk to ask for some item (I forget right now but they didn't have it) and there was no phone in the room. Quick thinking (kinda) made me call off my mobile. I rang SEVEN times to the front desk - no one answered. I eventually went downstairs to try to find someone. The phone is a classic example of things they don't have. There's a hair and body wash hooked into the shower (surprising for such a nicely finished hotel) but there is no extra amenities. No soap by the sink, no shower cap, no body lotion. I don't need 30 books I'm never going to read which are going to collect dust, I want items I may use. Similarly, they pitch this amazing mini bar which is free - one shot of gin, some tonic, a couple of bottles of water and coca cola and an alcohol-free beer. That's it. For two people. We would have both loved to start off our holiday getting ready to meet friends with a proper beer each - but I guess that doesn't matter to everyone. Another time I ordered an iron - no one seemed to understand what that was. Eventually, after an hour and 4 phone calls and a friend asking downstairs, one arrived. It was a good one to be fair but I was no an hour later than I wanted to be. I think style before substance is the best way to sum up this. It looks great but nothing is functioning properly. I will say there was one lady on the front desk (I forget her name) who was superb. But she was the highlight of a poor stay. Oh, it is quiet and the bed is super comfy though.

We stayed here for one night whilst visiting Hannover to attend a Scorpions concert. The hotel is on a relatively quiet street but a leisurely 10 minute stroll will have you in the heart of the old town. The hotel is very clean and the complimentary minibar is an added bonus. Would recommend for anyone visiting Hannover!

Exterior appearance is dated. Only when I was in room noticed I had been “charged” an EXTRA 50€ per night on the credit card which they described to me as being on an EU initiative. I do not like this practice happening WITHOUT MY CONSENT and that it was not even explained to me at Check in. Had to go downstairs to get TV remote replaced only to go back down later that night because that one was not working either. (btw remote in Hamburg was individually wrapped – here it came with a small pack of hygienic wraps – so much for Covid cleaning). Duty Receptionist/Manager came up and made me feel inferior because it worked for her. Then there is the safe that works when it wants to. I didn’t bother mentioning that for fear of being told off again. Internet – only allowed two of my three devices and it had to be reconfigured every day of my stay. Staying in the Hamburg Courtyard I had none of these problems. Good large room with my lake view being excellent (despite the torn mosquito netting on the opening window). (I fully appreciate requests cannot always be met but the hotel was not full and they consider 3rd of 5 floors as high). Furniture and carpeting very dated. The electric switches had a mind of their own. Excellent bathroom very hot water, good towels. Bed very comfortable with very good assortment of pillows. Easy chair and table NOT good for working on (unlike Hamburg). Clearly resting on its laurels with proximity of Arena next door and the lakeside location. Personally I would not recommend this hotel purely on the basis that it seems to be living in the past. It needs a lot of care and money spending on it. Apparently this is a “franchise” hotel – it creates a bad impression of what Courtyard can do (see my Hamburg review).

The recipe works until 22-00 , and we arrived later, but on the door there is a detailed instruction where to call and the key boxes, so we settled successfully))) breakfast is quite normal (if not capricized))), There is no elevator - for the 4th floor it is not critical (if there are no huge suitcases))), the room is clean, regulated heating, there is all necessary (and if something is needed - the staff will provide it), one minus was, The stove has not been turned off unless the network connection is turned off (unfortunately it is inside the cabinet and at the bottom, so if your dimensions are not allowed, do not get to)). Staff speaks English and is very kind)) . The hotel is 15 minutes walk from the central station, very convenient to walk on a wide pavement)))) Many sights are also on foot access. We spent 3 nights in this hotel and we did not need taxi or public transport. On our next visit to Hannover we will be happy to spend time again in this hotel!

I recommend people to join miles program once they reach hotel. After registering, they can get free train/bus card for their stay. I feel that staff is good and responding. However, sometimes too much shortage of manning causes some issue of discomfort. Also had one incident where towel were smelly.

The hotel we booked during the Euro Tier exhibition was said to be very close to Hannover Central Station. In fact, it was about 800 meters away from the back door of the station. There was a stone road all the way, so it was a bit difficult to haul luggage. That stretch of road is a bit dark at night, so be careful when traveling alone. I can’t say the room price during the exhibition. I booked it half a month in advance. The double bed room including breakfast and city tax was close to RMB 3,000 per night. Fortunately, probably because I am a member, the hotel directly upgraded me to a corner room. The room was big. No wonder there is a small balcony. For a business trip party that leaves early and returns late, it is simply a waste. The bathroom is rather strange. It is divided into two rooms, one with a toilet and a small washbasin, and one with a bathtub and a large washbasin. There are also doors. When I wake up in the middle of the night, I am a little confused and it is easy to open the wrong door. The breakfast was good and the waiters were generally friendly.

The room was very ordinary and functional, good beds, modern bathroom - but not very spacious overall. However, for a short trip absolutely enough. Breakfast buffet was OK. The way to the parking in the adjacent parking house is a little adventureful. For businesses in the city center the location is optimal - railway station, cinema, shopping, restaurants are walking super accessible.

It was perfectly enough for the price. Super location, rooms have everything you need.
