Hotelanlage Starick - Karl-Heinz & Jeannette Starick GbR in Lübbenau/Spreewald

The complex is idyllically located, practically the first hotel on the site, which means it has a monopoly position and this is mercilessly exploited financially. The price-performance ratio is therefore not always right. The prices quoted do not always match the advertisement on the internet. Above all: when paying, there are additional costs that were never stated or disclosed beforehand, such as additional costs for children in the suite at a price of €299 per night, even though we had expressly booked for 4 people. And then the beds aren't even made up for the children, so we had to do that ourselves. Parking costs €8 per night with no notice. You do pay, but it's about price transparency. The cyclist and paddler rooms are clearly overpriced for their size. The cake ordered for the celebration from the pastry chef is not served, instead we are served ancient cakes and some of them are from the supermarket and then we are initially charged double the price. Apologies for such deliberate customer fraud: None. Unfortunately. A company like this doesn't need something like that, and I've never experienced it before. It's a shame. It seriously tarnishes the otherwise good impression.

Very nice location Friendly staff and clean rooms No air conditioning, so it can get quite warm in the room on hot days

The hotel is located directly on a stream, a 10-minute walk from the Spreewald Open-Air Museum. Boat trips can be booked directly on site, and canoe rentals are available on-site.

We can only speak highly of the Quappenschenke. The extremely friendly and attentive staff looked after us. Despite the busyness, they remained friendly throughout. We felt very comfortable and would gladly return. We had a wonderful seat by the canal.

Dear Readers, I wanted to check into this hotel around 8:00 PM today. I've never experienced anything like this before. A note on the automation said I'd come right back. After 30 minutes, the door was still locked. The impudence is beyond compare. Either they have no staff or they have incompetent staff. Minus 10 out of ten for this performance. Abysmal. If you don't need it, then stay away. Honest answer. The joke performance of the Spreewald.

Hotel with a wide choice of rooms

A very beautiful and quiet hotel complex. The parking spaces are very narrow and difficult to find at first. We spent one night here and had a so-called "cyclist's room." The building was very nice from the outside. The hallway was a bit narrow and not particularly inviting, and the room was quite small for the price. In contrast to the other rooms in the advertisements, we were somewhat surprised by the slightly rustically furnished room. Nevertheless, everything was there. The organization at the reception was a bit bumpy both on arrival and departure. And the directions given were quite difficult to find. However, after a bit of a wait (which was, of course, very unfortunate, considering we were tired from the journey and hungry for breakfast), we were kindly answered. All in all, a lovely hotel and a pleasant stay.

I can always recommend it. Ideally connected for hiking or cycling tours.

A great team! Although from 1.5. until 4.5. Although it was definitely fully booked, the staff was always friendly and helpful.

Nicely located, good food, friendly staff.

A nice hotel and a nice staff. Breakfast was very nice and sufficient. But I have to make a small compromise. For a four star 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 hotel you can expect staff to be at reception until 9 or 10 p.m. Even if there aren't that many guests in the hotel. Great hotel complex

A very nice, idyllic hotel in the Spreewald. The rooms are modern and the beds are very good. The staff is friendly and always tries to fulfill your wishes. Very good breakfast, tasty and fresh. We also enjoyed it in the evening.

Blank idyll and a wonderful Advent weekend at “Staricks” with clever surprises. People here understand how to gut the goose, but do you really have to continue with the guest? A spontaneous, temporary price increase of almost twice as much - made us painfully aware that there seems to be something very small in print next to the small print. A field study we carried out at breakfast showed that places are scarce... very scarce... so queue up - you still remember it. The woman/man/other can end the day itself with a “peppery” nightcap at the homeopathically operated bar. If that's not enough for you, you can treat yourself to the exclusive piccolo from the minibar in your 3-star room for just EUR 8. And now that it doesn't really matter, it doesn't matter if you have the room right above the kitchen, otherwise the tired guest would never know that the hard-working guest hands start their day's work really early. The parking fee of 5 EUR/day, on the other hand, was quite a bargain. Conclusion - pre-Christmas gain across the board.

Super clean rooms and friendly staff

Beautiful hotel facility. Nice staff

Clearly comfortable furnishings both in the room and in the bar, very tasty food and friendly staff that provide child-friendly service. We look forward to next time!

Had a very nice short break here, the room was clean, there was everything your heart could desire for breakfast, dinner in the hotel restaurant was very good and the service was also good. Would love to come back.

We docked here with our boat for a lunch break and had a delicious meal. Whether deer goulash, grützwurst or quark, everything tasted great. If you like grützwurst, you should go here. That was the best I've ever eaten 👍.The service was great and there is also the opportunity to linger in the outdoor area.Nice decorations around the area.

Breakfast was very good, the staff was courteous and the room was clean and functional. Location very, very good.

Wonderful, very well-run house. The service is excellent in all areas, the food is excellent, the rooms are modern and even have a small terrace, great with dogs. There were 2 bowls and a basket ready for the dog. I would have liked to stay longer and would like to come back. Thanks

Very pleasant place also for important celebrations 👍🏻 Very friendly service 🎉

Spent two nights here. Sweet, small and quiet hotel with very nice and unobtrusive staff. At this point, thank you very much for the free upgrade 😊 Rich buffet. We would recommend it to everyone

A beautiful hotel in the middle of the Spreewald, service is great and everyone is always very nice.

Location great, very good breakfast,

We celebrated our wedding in the hotel complex in April. The location is wonderful, right on the water. The bride came to the wedding ceremony on the Spreewald barge. The wedding dinner was very tasty and left nothing to be desired. Service staff during the wedding were very friendly and quick. Consultations with the bride and groom were held throughout the evening. We have one negative point: the liquor was very expensive.

Very quiet location, great for relaxing.

Recommended for short breaks and family celebrations... Good breakfast 👍🏻 nice staff, clean rooms and hotel complex. Various pubs/restaurants/snack bars in the immediate vicinity 👍🏻 nice and quiet and yet only a 15 minute walk to Lübbenau. The only negative points: small window in the room and you also have to pay for the parking space...

I can only say the place is good I wasn't inside the hotel

This was my second time here... This time I had a paddler and cyclist room. In terms of furnishings, the slightly smaller room is identical to the larger rooms. WiFi can be expanded here in the outbuilding... Very good in the main building. The breakfast is rich and there is nothing that I missed. I'm already looking forward to my next stay

We were guests at a larger celebration. The hotel complex and the ambience were fantastic. The organization of the celebration and the decoration of the celebration location were really great! The food was incredibly delicious. The young ladies who served us tirelessly in the Gasthaus zum Hirschwinkel restaurant and during the celebration were very friendly, attentive and quick. Unfortunately, there is also negative feedback: The service staff at breakfast talked in front of all the guests about the sensitivities of their uniforms and were very rude to each other. The same applies to both men at the reception - dealing with guests when they have requests or with their own colleagues is very harsh and thus lowers the overall level. There seems to be a generally rough tone. The breakfast was very clear for a 4 star hotel. Our room had a waterbed that we had no knowledge of, but it was apparently already missing water - so we swam back and forth on the bed and barely got a wink of sleep. When the receptionist commented, they said that the bed should have been disposed of long ago and there should be a real bed in it - now you can't change that - something like that has to be checked beforehand?!

Great “witch house”... we felt very comfortable. Spreewald evening was great... we sat very romantically... the service was perfect! Thanks to the careful, fast, extremely friendly lady who also perfectly organized the large group that sat with us. ...only one very small negative point... the buffet, which was very tasty, didn't last until dessert, which wasn't refilled. But...have a nice day with you in the Spreewald! Highly recommended...even for a short break! Thanks!

We celebrated our wedding in the hotel complex and it was an unforgettable day. We would like to thank Ms. Starick for the fantastic organization. A huge thank you also goes to the whole team that accompanied our celebration. The food and service was great.

We were guests here over Pentecost and we were all very satisfied. Very nice and clean hotel complex, everything is perfect here... Friendly staff, very good cuisine from breakfast to dinner in the Hirschwinkel. I can only recommend it. Location is also great.

A nice hotel. Service and staff very nice. Good food and lots of choice. Gladly again.

Wonderful. From back to front... We would love to come back and are looking forward to it!

This year there were a lot of mosquitoes, but they didn't spoil our fun celebrating in a great atmosphere!

A great hotel with a rich and varied breakfast buffet. We really liked our “wild boar suite with children’s room”. Only the mosquitoes in front of the house were really annoying. Luckily some of the windows have insect nets so we were still able to ventilate well at night. Unfortunately, we were unable to use the available seating in front of the house directly on the river. The beds were very comfortable, we only found the duvets to be too warm. The WiFi was also a bit weak and not available everywhere in the room. But these are just small things. You can rent paddle boats of various sizes (1-4 people) directly at the hotel behind the cucumber museum and use them to explore the river and canals. The area is ideal for water hiking. We went on a 2-hour paddling tour with our little one and were really impressed by the landscape and the atmosphere on the water. We would have liked to have stayed longer.

Personally, the beds are too soft for me, especially the pillows. Otherwise the hotel is simply great and highly recommended as a starting point for activities in the Spreewald. The staff are super friendly, the service is excellent. Very good rich breakfast.

It was very nice here. Breakfast was delicious 😋 the rooms were modern, comfortable and clean. The beautiful surroundings invite you to take a leisurely hike. We'd love to come back.

A good hotel complex with typical Spreewald charm. 4* are a bit exaggerated for me, the accommodations (some) are the result of renovation work rather than the result of hotel planning. But, this is the Spreewald, not everything is perfect, but everything is rustic. The location is very good, when all the guesthouses are open it is even better. Unfortunately, this was not the case during the holiday week after Easter. The breakfast left nothing to be desired and the staff is courteous and very nice. When paying, it turned out that the parking space was not free. A small downside, but you can still get over 5 euros per day...

Unfortunately it was very busy and so the service had a lot to do and some things took a while...but everyone was very friendly...food was good and tasted...I can't say anything about the rooms as we only went to eat there were....

Beautiful hotel with excellent service! Goods i. We've been here for the second time in February and we're always happy to come back! 100 percent recommended! But I also have to mention extremely positively the good support from Maria at the reception! You just feel at home! Thanks again for the good support!

Great place to isolate, breathe fresh air, walk in nature, and focus. Cell reception is very limited. Hotel wifi is constrained. Local game food.

The facility is very beautiful, even in winter. The alternating breakfast makes you look forward to the day ahead. We recommend.

Beautiful facility and rooms, nice staff, great breakfast. We'd love to come back.

Quiet location in the Spreewald, but Lübbenau is still within walking distance, about 10 minutes. Very nice and competent staff. Breakfast buffet plentiful and tasty.

You have to stop here and spend the night if you are in the Spreewald

Very nice idyllic facility. Good service. Food top. Nice personel

A double room comfort category 5 was booked. The reception at the hotel took a bit of getting used to. Employees are more Nordic calm than friendly. I had to repark the car because I took the wrong parking space. To then find out that parking costs €5 per night. Ok, let's go to the room. 25sqm for 155€ in mid-November, I'm expecting something now! Room on the ground floor, 2 public toilets opposite the boiler room and utility room next to it, no chance of sleeping in (room 71). The room itself is rather spartan, cleanliness is average. Nothing found that would justify the price. Breakfast wasn't bad, unfortunately the staff was a bit strange in their communication. Overall, the price is absolutely a disgrace, breakfast makes up for it a little. Location is of course great. Anyone who rates 5 stars here is probably more likely to rate the Spreewald and never this hotel. No recommendation from me.
