Hotel Sønderborg Kaserne

Hotellet ligger godt placeret i byen og det var et super godt værelse til prisen. Det var dejligt at man kunne hente gratis kaffe og kakao. Morgenmaden var dejlig , der var alt hvad man kunne ønske sig og personalet var venlig.

Das Einchecken ist kinderleicht, kostenlose Parkplätze sind unmittelbar vorhanden und die Zimmer bieten alles was man braucht. Auch ein Balkon ist vorhanden. Das Frühstück ist ordentlich und man findet für jeden Geschmack etwas. Kostenlosen Kaffee und Tee gibt’s den ganzen Tag über .

De grands bâtiments de briques rouges qui offrent des chambres grandes et très confortables avec vue sur les voiliers. On est loin des casernes ! Ne pas se fier à la première impression en arrivant sur le parking Couloirs relativement neutres mais qui ouvrent sur une belle surprise tant la chambre est grande.

Heel erg propere accomodatie. Er is geen servicedesk of staff beschikbaar. De check-in verloopt via sms en email met een toegangscode en eveneens wordt een filmpje meegestuurd op youtube om te tonen hoe je binnen kan geraken en waar je moet parkeren. De accomodatie is vrij spartaans. Er is een mini badkamertje met mini lavabootje, toilet en douche. Er is geen airconditioning en zodra het warm wordt, wordt het er broeiierig warm binnen. Het balkondeurtje open zetten naar het terrasje kan wel (als je hoger zit dan de gelijkvloers en de 1e verdieping), maar dan heb je muggen. Hou er ook rekening mee dat je heel erg kort bij de haven zit, waardoor je de meeuwen heel fel hoort schreeuwen! Het dubbelbed was echter wel heel erg zalig om in te slapen en ook het bedlinnen was van een zalig Egyptisch katoen. Bij het ontbijt had je los fruit, pannenkoeken, een paar soorten brood (die lekker waren), eitjes, charcuterie, een koffieautomaat, cornflakes, havermout, muesli, ... kortom, je gaat er geen honger lijden en de dagelijkse zaken die je eet, zijn er heel overvloedig aanwezig. Het restaurant gaat door in een heel grote zaal en het is er heel netjes en proper. De medewerkers zijn er vriendelijk en zijn constant in de weer met opruimen, tafels proper maken en eten bijvullen. Voor 1 a 2 nachtjes is dit wel OK om es sober en eenvoudig op vakantie te gaan.

You will see a lot about the layout and operation of hotel in other reports. It is still the same minimalist room and bathroom. The front desk is not staffed, you still get an email with a pin code for your room and front door. Fumbling with luggage and phone to find the darn pin code is always fun, especially so in the dark and rain. Some of the furniture now has large stains. And still no airconditioning! On arrival in June 2024 the room was broiling hot. Opening the windows brought only minimal relief during the night. In the past, the breakfast in the old gym was of good quality, in spite of the weird surroundings, which are still weird, now with the added weirdness of lounge music being played. The place still gives me a feel of being in a hidden camera show. But said breakfast has deteriorated. The coffee options had been "upgraded" with a machine dispensing hot milk with what tasted like instant coffee. Not great. The scrambled eggs were accompanied by some small cocktail sausages and warm liver paté ("leverpostej") - maybe a local delicacy? Not appealing . The bread was old and stale. When "knækbrød" is the freshest option, you know there is a problem! Butter was a big hunk and stone cold. A large hunk of cheese with an intriguing slicer was being fondled by numerous people. Alas, no more pastries on the buffet. All in all a quite disappointing breakfast for the price.

The room was clean and minimally decorated with Danish modern furniture. The check in process was easy and we were emailed door codes and our room number ahead. Breakfast was good with lots of options. No safe in room and breakfast building was a little bit of a walk. The car park was up 1-1/2 flights of stairs. Not a problem for us but would be for someone who has difficulty. Overall a pretty location and a comfortable stay.

Un bon hôtel, dans une bâtisse ancienne (caserne militaire). Tout est très propre et moderne, grand parking à disposition, petit déjeuner très copieux, tout est électronique, du coup c‘est pratique mais hyper chaleureux. Literie très bonne, et chambre relativement spacieuse. Le seul souci c‘est la température de la chambre qu‘on n’a pas réussi à descendre. Il faisait trop chaud… et pas de restaurant attenant.. possibilité d‘en trouver à 15minutes à pieds.

We asked to have vegan options for breakfast and the only thing that we got was oats and oatmilk, sidedish greens and some bread and marmelade. No vegan butter or vegan cheese and no apology. We asked when we booked and again at arrival and was assured, that it was taken care of. I can only give that service 1 star since we

Just back from a weekend in beautiful Sonderborg for business, where we strayed from our usual hotel to stay at Stalag Kaserne. Lord knows why we even bothered. A quirky ex-Army training camp which on the face of it is unusual but pretty cool. Check in done by emails and pin codes which although a little more "A.I." than I prefer is what it is, as long as it works. And it didn't. My business partner spent ages trying to get into his allocated room only to discover when finally checking the company email that a room number change had been actioned while we were travelling. Strike one. Once in the rooms they were modern, clean and characteristically minimal but very nice and comfortable. However, no AC and with windows that didn't open, I was forced to sleep with an external door ajar all night to let some air in on a very hot June night. Strike two. Breakfast a short walk away in the next "cell block" which was pleasant enough. And off to work we went, while "strike three" was being perpetrated. For some reason, my colleagues room was given to someone else while we were out enjoying a long day of work and his belongings ceremoniously gathered up, put in his suitcase and left in reception (which was unstaffed and unlocked and could be accessed by anyone who chose to) with a torn off piece of paper stuffed in the handle with his (ex)room number on and a message passed to our employer (who had booked our rooms) to let him know as we could not be contacted. The belongings of at least 3 other (unknown to us) people were treated the exact same way and left in the same place and them left in the same situation as us, by the way for any readers who are by now thinking that we mjst have done something reprehensible to upset our hosts and cause ourselves to be evicted. Utter disgrace. To handle and collect up someones belongings (which included cash and expensive electronic communication devices) and dump them in a public area at the mercy of anyone who may choose to help themselves is borderline criminal, not to mention the inconvenience and expense of finding and paying for another hotel at 9pm on a Saturday night while we were still dressed in full business suits and wanted nothing more than to eat and sleep was something neither of us had ever experienced in decades of travel. Luckily, our "usual" hotel welcomed us back with open arms so we had a place to sleep. On the downside, a late night trip to McDonalds was as close to a taste of Denmark as we could muster by the time this was all sorted. Multiple phone calls to the hotel "robot" went unanswered and we have still not received an explaination for this apparent character test of a weekend. So, if you wish to be treated with the same "you a** belongs to us" attitude as the budding military heroes that once inhabited this structure please crack on. However, us mere civvies will be avoiding Sonderborgs answer to Camp Pendleton like the plague going forwards. Hotel Kaserne, you.re
