Hotel Bodensee-Arena0

The room and bathroom are large. Lots of drawer and closet space. Access straight outside to a large green space with Lake Bodensee 150 meters distant. Breakfast was good with indoor and outdoor seating. Check-in was straightforward with a friendly and helpful representative. Safe and secure bike storage, although we kept ours in the room. Ten minute walk to Germany (Konstanz) with all the amenities of a city.

Check-in location is awkward (it is at the entrance to the arena). Not a big deal, just not where one might expect. Then again, the entire property is part of a sports complex so makes sense. Unfortunately, a large tent on the grass area was being removed during our stay (we were advised of this well in advance of arriving). There was some noise and an obscured view of the lake. This was not a hotel matter and as noted, we were told what to expect weeks in advance.

Location is good for the bicycle path along the Rhine or Bodensee. Indoor bicycle storage room. Good breakfast included. A good budget hotel, easy walk to downtown Konstanz and restaurants, etc.

No air conditioning, which isn't unusual in Europe, but the design of the hotel means that there isn't much airflow, either. All the rooms had to keep their doors open in order to get any breeze, which of course takes away any privacy.

It was not my first stay but I am not disappointed this time either. The location is close to the centre, the room was clean and comfortable. The staff is friendly and the breakfast was satisying. Bonus that the bike rental is complimentary and the lake is really close.

I missed a small fridge from the room, and if someone is searching for an extra quite place to stay its not for them.

The room does have the feeling of an old "locker room" just because it's a concrete room at an arena, but they've definitely made the best of the situation. It was clean and room was decorated nicely. The location might not be the best, except I ended up hanging out at an outside bar thing just accross the border so it was perfect for me that night,

Great location for the lake and the town, really friendly team and a big room/bathroom, with a good breakfast included. No air conditioning, but the room was shaded and cool.

The sound proofing, we were on the lower of two floors and the people above made a lot of noise and banged about for hours. This was more about the disrespectful idiots above than the building, but a soft floor above or sound proofing would help.

This hotel is the perfect option to discover both the German side of Lake of Constance and Eastern Switzerland - the best thing is the Oskar Card, a special offer for tourists staying in Eastern Switzerland which at a bargain of CHF 10 / day offer you free rides on local SBB trains and PostAuto buses in whole Eastern Switzerland region (Ostwind transport network) and Liechtenstein and even includes touristic attractions such as museums, mountain cable cars such as the ride on Mount Säntis and much more. A must-buy! - location is great, just a few minutes walk across the (open) border from the German railway station Konstanz (a beautiful city to discover by the way) and well connected to the Swiss Railway network through Kreuzlingen Hafen railway station (less than 10 minutes walk each). Schaffhausen / Rhine waterfalls, Sankt Gallen and cities along the lake are within easy reach from there. - Rooms are Motel style, basic but well heated and all very clean and with a superb view on the lake and just next to the sculptures at the border (Kunstgrenze / art border) and a short walk from the lake promenade. It is so close to Germany I could still use my German mobile telephone network! - The staff is super lovely, welcoming and helpful! I was attended by Ms. Iten and she did a perfect job, also giving me some useful information on how to check-in outside of Reception hours beforehand by mail. - The breakfast is truly 5 * and exceeded my expectations by far! I particularly loved the New Year breakfast which included a complimentary glass of Champagne ;-). The breakfast comes very complete, normally in the form of a Buffet but due to Covid-19 restrictions was served right at the table. It is a typical Swiss breakfast with Bircher Muesli, cereals, milk, Orange Juice, Coffee, Joghurt, fruit, rolls, Croissant, cheese, Salami, ham, Jams, honey, Nutella, .... more than enough to keep saturated until the evening!

nothing to mention - if you ask me for room for improvement, it just would be putting a water kettle in the room, some teabags and a cup in order to allow the guests to prepare a tea (especially when due to Covid-19 all the restaurants and the hotel facilities are closed).

we stayed for 1 night and It was exactly what we needed. Room was ok and breakfast was good we also forgot something in the room and they were nice enough to send it back via Post, excellent

the pillows are too big and soft but this is just personal taste.

Close to the city Center of Constance & free parking & great breakfast

No instruction how to reach the parking (but easily solved onsite)

surprisingly good! super convenient to downtown. rooms were clean and quiet.

the building is a bit strange. but acceptable.

The central location was perfect and the staff went above and beyond to be helpful and accommodating. The room was very clean and comfortable. Great value for money. For a weary traveller this was very welcome indeed. I would definitely stay here again.
