Propeller Island City Lodge is an exceptional place. We spent 3 nights at this hotel and found it a delight. We booked room 14, HollyWood, which had a lovely bath in the middle of the room and a balcony. Climbing ladders to get into our (very comfortable) beds was part of the fun; as was the delight of discovering the... More

Odd place but you likely can figure that out for yourself. this is NOT a fully staffed place and was quite a pain to get in after hours... keep that in mind! More

Slumbered in a flying bed in the "Therapy" room with white walls, mood lighting and a furry feature wall. Then after 3 nights floated on a raft attached to the ceiling with shipping rope and sacks lining the floor. This was truly a surreal hotel and a great place for a group of friends to visit. While slightly out of... More

I have been staying at Propellor Island City Lodge since it's very beginings when rooms were still smelling like new, the breakfast had peeled apple slices and Lars himself would welcome you. Every two years I have a peek at other or new rooms Lars and his crafty team have come up with. And every time I enjoy the playfull... More

I read some of the recent more negative reviews. I can't share those. We had a pleasant experience. It might be a bit off-putting for single female travellers arriving late at night as there won't be anyone around. But it is easy to find and well organised (key left in safe, clear sign-posts, etc.). It was also clean and well... More

So I learned something very important while staying here: cool looking rooms do not equal comfortable and accommodating hotel experience. Our stay began around 9pm at night. We had contacted the hotel staff to let them know we wouldn't arrive during their working hours (staff is only there for a few hours every morning). They left the room key inside... More

I stayed at the most expensive room of the hotel and at a very strange room. I also had the chance to see other rooms and I have to say that the ideas of the artists regarding the rooms are exceptional. This is by far that most exquisit hotel I stayed at because of its rooms and their originality. I... More

This place is quite fun and breakfast was good and nice friendly staff as well. Our room was nicely done with a sort of sound machine for mood setting. It just really has ideas slightly above what it delivers. It is expensive (you can get a 5* hotel in Berlin for the same price) and so expectations were that it... More

This hotel is really different! We stayed in the room completely lined with mirrors. It was very very tiny, but that was all part of the fun. Very friendly staff, good English. Ok location, very quiet area. Fantastic breakfast in cool dining room. Would love to stay in the other rooms! It's probably only good for one night as it... More

I was really disappointed with Propeller Island. We hoped for a fun, romantic, quirky break but we got a basic, creepy, hostel-type experience. The hotel does say that it is 'not like other hotels', but visitors must really take them at their word! No shampoo, no shower gel, no hairdryer, no manned reception. Do not expect any comforts - even... More
