Hotel Kieler Yacht-Club

Right at the Düsternbrook marina

The hotel sits directly on the water in the Düsternbrook district, with the marina and jetties practically at the door. The Kiellinie and its promenade are just steps away, the path running along the fjord shore towards the city centre. From here you look out over arriving yachts, ferries and, on major event days, the maritime activity of the fjord. Those coming by car should check the parking situation in advance, as this waterside spot is central and in demand; buses along the Kiellinie link the quarter with the city centre.

Maritime stays with water views

Nautical and sailing motifs shape the rooms and underline the seafaring character of the house. The restaurant overlooking the water is ideal for rounding off the day with a glass of wine and a fjord panorama. During Kiel Week and on regatta weekends the hotel becomes a meeting point for sailing enthusiasts. It suits water-sports fans, couples with a feel for maritime flair, and guests who want to watch the harbour stir from their window in the morning rather than having to walk far first.

Sailing, beach and city

From the hotel the fjord opens up on foot and by boat: the fjord-ferry piers are within reach, taking you comfortably to Laboe or the naval memorial on the east bank. Along the Kiellinie are cafés, snack stands and benches with water views. Within minutes you reach Kiel Castle and its gardens, and a little further on the city centre with its shopping streets. Tip: a short boat trip across the fjord shows the hotel and the yacht harbours from an entirely different perspective.
