Property details

Funky contemporary hotel in the heart of Kiel, close to Central Station, the quays and the historic centre - includes breakfast and a welcome drink
  • Maritime décor: Decorated with modern, fresh style, the niu Welly bursts with locally inspired details, artworks and large windows that let in plenty of natural daylight. Touches of nautical inspiration within the décor honour the city's status as a major maritime centre.

  • Experience the city: Sitting along the fjord, just a few miles downstream from the Kiel Canal - the busiest man-made waterway in the world - the city of Kiel boasts a long and rich maritime history. Dive in and explore - you can step inside a real German submarine, visit the towering Laboe Naval Memorial or take a stroll down the waterfront promenade known as Kiellinie, with views across to the shipyards on the east bank. 

  • Food and fun: You need to fuel up for a busy day of sightseeing, and the niu Welly has you covered with their tasty buffet breakfast. After your day of exploring, you can relax with a drink at the bar, or play a game of table football in the lounge.
