"Very dated hotel. Hardly maintained building - from balcony views over flat roofs with plastic coverings. Additional charge for the sauna was excessive and unexpected. "

"The room was clean and the breakfast was very good, but unfortunately there was no means to cool the room in the heat of 29-31 degrees, not even a fan."

"Sehr zentrale Lage, gute Ausstattung, netter Service"

"Great service!"

"Beautiful hotel overlooking Elbe"

"Our recent stay at Hotel zum Halbmond was a disappointment from the moment we walked through the door. Despite confirming twice that dogs were welcome—both over the phone and as advertised on their website—we were met with immediate hostility upon arrival. The staff member’s first words were, “I can’t have this dog here,” followed by a lengthy lecture on all the potential problems our dog might cause. It was clear that our dog was not as welcome as we had been led to believe. When we suggested canceling our stay and receiving a refund, the staff member hesitated, clearly more concerned about losing our payment than providing good service. Reluctantly, he showed us to our room, continuing to complain and reiterate his earlier concerns. His attitude was anything but welcoming, and it was clear that hospitality was not his strong suit. To make matters worse, the hotel itself was far from what we expected. The entrance area looked like a construction site, messy and uninviting—nothing like the images shown on their website. We quickly decided that this was not a place we wanted to spend even one night. Thankfully, Hotel.com website was quick to assist us in securing a refund, and we left without further issue. Unfortunately, we cannot recommend Hotel zum Halbmond to anyone, especially those traveling with pets. Our advice to the hotel: improve your communication, learn what hospitality really means, and perhaps clean up the place a bit while you’re at it."

"Great location on the river; rooms are spacious, clean and mine had a wonderful view; only comment was check in could have been better - card didn't work and staff could have been more helpful locating room"

"I just had to spend the night on my way from Denmark to Berlin and for that it was perfect. But there was a constant noice from some sort og machinery, so if you are sensitive to that, it is good to know."

"The view of the lake was fabulous! Right from our hotel room!"
