IFA Fehmarn Hotel & Ferien-Centrum in Fehmarn

Beautiful vacation spot for young and old alike who will be happy to come back!

It was very nice again. We were there for the second time. Only this time we were on the 16th floor in Copenhagen. The elevator only goes up to the 15th floor. That means lugging all your luggage up one floor. I didn't think it was that great because I have very bad knee problems. If I had known this beforehand, I wouldn't have booked.

Due to the fact that the entire facility is getting old and the new investor has not renovated anything, unfortunately nothing is positive anymore except for the location. Mattresses completely worn out. Bathroom very bad and dirty. Hot water is usually not available in the morning hours. The walls and frame were perhaps last cleaned in 1988. Ventilation system for cleaning in the Copenhagen house and incredibly loud at night.. nothing works without the window closed.. unfortunately.

This is really a bad hotel, old and outdated, the furniture from 1970, nothing is furnished with love or suggests that the guest is welcome here! Unfortunately, this is also reflected by the unfriendly lady at the reception! The beds are terrible, the sofa is broken, the cupboard where the TV is has holes in it, you don't even want to make coffee in the small kitchen! The only plus point is the location, unfortunately we had a view of the huge parking lot! We originally planned to stay two nights but will be leaving early! What a disappointment!!!!!

If simple accommodation is enough for you, it's fine. The hotel is simply very old and the room is completely old. You can spend the night there but that's it. We had a room for 4 people, which was quite cramped and small. The equipment is very limited...for 4 people there were 2 forks and the kitchen on site cannot be called a kitchen. We have had better equipped apartments for a long time. You can't stand a summer vacation here at all. The only advantage is the location on the south beach... simply perfect. You can park right in front of the door for 5 euros per night. Bicycle rental and bakery right in front of the hotel and the thermal baths are free for hotel guests for 2 hours every day. So OK for a short vacation. Nevertheless, the facility really needs to be renewed a little. Bed linen and towels are included.

Affordable holiday apartments in a prime location, parking 5 euros/day, moderate local tourist tax, bike rental on site

Super room with everything for a mini stay. For 2 people 110 Euros per night approved, however, breakfast at 18 Euros per person is just on the upper end in relation to the offer. Nice and clean, for an extra payment vufi can also be included😊

Unfortunately, the outside of the hotel is a bit old. A little color would be good for the look. The hotel is located directly on the beach. Very good food and friendly service staff.

We really liked it, had a 1-room apartment in the Fernblickhaus, 2 adults and 2 children. Great location, rooms as described and very clean, a lot offered by the complex. The bicycle storage should be mentioned very positively. A small drawback is the very expensive half-board, but you can also get food elsewhere on site, for example from the beach pizzeria or the restaurant, and the WiFi is somewhat weak. But it's complaining at a high level. We'll definitely be back. We really liked it, the location right on the beach and on the bike path is simply unique and Fehmarn is simply beautiful.

Price/performance absolutely top

We were here with 3 buses. Accommodation and food left us wanting for nothing. Very pleasant and friendly atmosphere. We'll be back.

Catastrophic for holidaymakers who are offered such rooms! Plus indifferent reception staff! Check out the video and pictures! Addendum: The contact with management is positive! They didn't try to justify themselves, but agreed that such a room shouldn't have been allowed to be rented out! Let's keep our fingers crossed for all guests that something like this doesn't happen again!

A very nice hotel, directly on the beach with a great view of the Baltic Sea and an excellent breakfast buffet! The staff is very friendly and helpful. We come here every year in the early and late season! The rooms are equipped for 4 people with everything you need for self-catering. The view is directly over the Baltic Sea. Dogs are allowed up to the 4th floor. There are 16 floors, although you have to climb the stairs to reach the 16th floor, the elevator only goes up to the 15th floor! But you will be rewarded with a fantastic view. All rooms have sea views.

Mixed feelings, the location itself is great, the rooms are incredibly old and run down. We got another room which probably took 3 hours to clean. I don't know what was done during the 3 hours, but at least the room was ventilated and the toilet was used properly. Definitely wouldn't come again. And someone who values ​​cleanliness is not particularly well looked after there. My husband is a severe allergy sufferer and unfortunately had to leave early because it didn't work despite having a vacuum cleaner

Everything perfect!!! Big praise to the entire team. Breakfast and dinner excellent. ALL rooms with sea view and very cozy and clean.

The location of the complex is simply fantastic. You could definitely do more with the rooms and make them a little more modern, but the rooms are absolutely clean! Unfortunately the beds are terrible 😐. If investments were made here and a renovation were to take place, people would definitely be happy to pay more for their vacation because the location is unbeatable. The breakfast and dinner are absolutely fine and everyone should find something they like. The service is very nice and friendly. I would definitely come again

I stay here once or twice a year, always in the off-season. The price is unbeatable. The service is always friendly and courteous. Every room has a sea view, and so far, I've always stayed on one of the top five floors. Unfortunately, the rooms now look very worn and are in need of a complete overhaul. The towers would probably even need a complete renovation, but that could be difficult, given their historic status.

Only viewed from the outside: Visually bad, location great. Ambiance all around rocked down and boring

The hotel gets one star for service because the restaurant wasn't very vegan-friendly. Unthinkable these days.

A very nice place with friendly service and pleasant people.

Rooms are a bit dated. But the value for money is right. We'd love to come back again and again. This view is simply amazing 😍

The hotel was built in the 1970s, so its layout is accordingly simple. We had a room on the 16th floor, with good weather and therefore a wonderful view.

A bit of 70s and 80s charm, but otherwise really nice. We also had fantastic weather.

Simply beautiful. Although a bit dated, the place is perfect for a lovely short break.

We were just there for a walk...still a great environment.

Great hotel, with breakfast at a great price. The dinner was super delicious. Gladly again.

It was our first time there, and we really enjoyed it. It was off-season, so it wasn't too crowded. We were very impressed.

We would not recommend this hotel to anyone. Our rooms were very unclean, the furnishings were outdated, mattresses were completely worn out, unpleasant smells from the kitchenette and bathroom. Breakfast and the view were the only positive things about our stay. We won't be coming back.

NEVER AGAIN!!!!! The worst hotel we've ever experienced. The rooms were an absolute disaster: dirty, saggy mattresses, and a moldy smell!

Top location, right by the sea but the traces of time are clearly visible on the interior.

The location on the beach is great even in bad weather. The rooms are functionally furnished and always have a view of the Baltic Sea. The fridge in our room was probably powered by diesel, but from the sound of it (fun) it was still great...

The rooms were very clean, stunning views. Unfortunately, the cooperation with the Windrose restaurant is terrible! We were told at reception we didn't need to reserve a table. When we checked out on Sunday, the lady at the reception warned us. "It's very busy today." So we waited in line for about 30 minutes to get a table, for which we had unfortunately already paid for breakfast. Annoying and unfortunately overshadowing an otherwise lovely stay.

Just the 70s. Beach okay. If you want peace and quiet, ideal. Best in the off-season. But then not all restaurants are open. So off to the city.

Great view of the Baltic Sea Restaurants and leisure options in the hotel Right on the beach

The hotel is getting old and the mattresses are really not ok! Great view and nice staff. But what really scares me is the wind!! It whistles through every crack, through the elevator and through the air shafts from bottom to top. What happens if a fire breaks out? Is the Lopesan Group saving on this?

We were there for two nights. Unfortunately the weather wasn't that nice. The hotel is located directly by the sea. you can take a walk along the promenade. The room was a bit outdated but the value for money was ok.

211€/night for an “old building” is completely excessive.

I've been coming here for ages and always enjoy it. Yes, some of the rooms are not modern, but they are clean. And if they weren't, we let them know straight away and were able to change. No problem, you just have to say it right away and not whine until after your vacation 😉. Many thanks also to the IFA team for keeping my forgotten fairy lights from last time 😊.

Friendly staff and great location, but the hotel, especially the rooms, which are clean, are getting old and need renovation.

Great place, great service, overall we were happy with everything.

The staff are very friendly and helpful. The buffet in the evening and morning is very rich. The location is of course undeniably very good. The hotel is getting old and the furniture is now worn out. The mattresses are extremely soft and too narrow. Shower curtains are no longer contemporary and unhygienic.

Rooms are nothing special - but great views.

Very nice. Holiday apartment right on the beach. I feel very comfortable.

We felt very comfortable, the apartment was clean. We enjoyed the view of the Baltic Sea every day. The staff was very friendly and we'll be back next year.

Nothing special, but everything you need. Price-performance is okay

Friendly reception and check out. Rooms (1 room apartment) large and well equipped. Breakfast good, with everything you need. Entrance to Fehmare for 2 hours. The view from the room is indescribable. That wasn't the last visit 😀 Not all rooms are as nice as the first time. But it fits...

Striking high-rise complex that, although well maintained, still shows its age. Lots of offers in and around the house and the direct beach location is really a dream!

Good hotel for vacation. All rooms with their own kitchen for self-catering. Delicious breakfast buffet. Gladly again for more than a weekend

Hello IFA team, I'm surprised I haven't written a review long ago. We have been to the IFA Hotel on Fehmarn 6 or 7 times now and have always been thrilled. The location on the beach is perfect and if you have a distant view room on one of the upper floors you can see far out to sea. Fantastic. Although the rooms are getting old, they are still perfectly adequate, large and clean. The service and employees are always very courteous. I haven't had anything negative to say about it in all these years. We always booked half board when we visited, so we had a breakfast and dinner buffet. There was something for everyone here and if our kids wanted something extra (chips) we had it at no extra cost. One star deduction (4 instead of 5) for the furnishings (rooms)...it could maybe be modernized after x years :-) Until the next vacation.

IFA 💛 thank you for the wonderful birthday with you. I'll be back! Like every year :)

Great hotel right on the water. Open the balcony door and you can hear the surf. Huge free parking lot. The breakfast was awesome.

It's getting a bit old. But that's not a drama. The price was great. In the front row with a great view over the Baltic Sea. We have stayed here many times and will come again.

I was your guest at the end of November. I got the view I wanted and was able to take beautiful pictures. Sunrise 🌄 on the south beach is a real dream. Gladly again..... I can 100% recommend breakfast in the Windrose. It was sufficiently stocked and tasted good. We'll see each other again soon. Greetings from the island of Fehmarn from Königswinter (Rhineland)

- getting old - - Room was clean - unfortunately very old (the sofa was rustic and the leather was partially chipped and left white spots on my sweater) - the breakfast buffet was very tasty and plentiful - fantastic view - very quiet

Yes. It's just a holiday area. Restaurant good. Staff nice. Unfortunately, there are also craftsmen living in the hotel who cannot maintain a dress code in the restaurant. We'd love to come back.

Always happy to come here. Great location right on the beach

Spent a really great time and treatment there. My accompanying children also thought it was great there. Room great. House service top, therapists of all kinds top, kitchen staff top, food good, view and proximity to the beach can't be beat. Big praise!!

Rooms were ok, view of the sea was great, food was great, especially the buffet

We were there for the third time. We like it very much. If the weather is bad you can enjoy the swimming pool.

Top hotel in a top location with top staff, again at any time, thank you very much and best regards 🙋🏽‍♀️

The room was getting old, but it was clean. Unfortunately, the beds were a disaster. They sagged and wobbled back and forth like pudding, which is why a good night's sleep was unfortunately not possible. There should also be assigned parking spaces so that guests from House 1 do not have to park at the back of House 3.

We stayed in this hotel on the weekend of 18/20/1024. Basically it was a nice stay. But you have to make compromises here too. I like children, they are the future, if the producers and educators give their children too much freedom in certain situations, running around, screaming........I will no longer book my vacation at a time when there are vacations . I also didn't understand why families were distributed in such a way that single travelers were disturbed.

I've been coming here again and again since the late 90's. Previously with my parents, now with my own family. The house, or rather the houses, have aged along with me. If you want, you can see cosmetic flaws and the need for renovation everywhere. This time we had a 2-room apartment again, in house 2 (Berlin). The chairs at the dining table were not worn out, but - we suspect - they were already badly worn out from a lot of cleaning (corona disinfection?). A more visual defect that doesn't harm the actual purpose. The sofa bed might need a new mattress. Unfortunately this was broken. In the room, as well as throughout the building, you could see the efforts of the house service to temporarily save the guests' scratches and damage as best they could over the season. But hey. Everything was clean, the (silicone) joints in the bathroom were fresh and free of mold (I know this to be different even from “high-quality” hotels). What always draws us here is the good service, the beautiful view (no matter which room), the top location and the island itself. The restaurants in the complex are all good too. Whether Marché, Windrose or beach pizzeria. Price performance fits. The complex still has a certain charm, which it has lost relatively little of over the years. You can hate or love the towers. I/we think they are simply part of Fehmarn and should be preserved for a long time. Please don't let the renovation/renovation take too long. We would love to come back!

The restaurant is quite ok, not really good, but ok. However, the rooms definitely do not justify the horrendous price. All in all completely shabby and shabby. Some of the beds wobble when turned over and are more reminiscent of camping furniture than hotel beds. Everything else is also at least 40 years old. The staff in the restaurant are very friendly and helpful, at the reception only some of them are.

It works like this... price/performance not given.

Great location, very friendly staff

My partner and I stayed here for a week. A nice vacation. Whether alone, as a couple or as a whole family, there is something for everyone here.

We had a hotel room on the 14th floor where we had a great view! The breakfast buffet was great and there was everything from tea to coffee, especially the delicious rolls! We had the 4 nights including breakfast! It was my first time in a hotel and we will definitely come back!

Great value for money and great location.

3 days off... lovely Super nice staff, our apartment was great, and the view was amazing

The hotel is a bit older. But the location and the great staff make up for it. We'd love to come back

A renovation would do the whole thing a lot of good. The entire building could have been on the other side of the inner-German border in the 80s. The location, however, is prime.

We have been coming to this hotel for 9 years now and have always had a two-room apartment. This year was really the highlight. We booked for 4 people (2 adults and 2 children) plus a high chair. When we moved into the room there were only bedding and towels for 3 people and the high chair was also missing. Then I went to reception and reported this. It was also recorded by the employees and they told me that housekeeping would take care of it straight away and whether they could still do this work even if we were not in the room. I had agreed that they could enter the room despite our absence. When we came back from the evening walk it was exactly as we had left it. I then went back to reception and was told that the housekeeping staff was no longer there. I also had to pay 15 euros for a duvet cover, which I find excessive when the organization doesn't even work when you book for 4 people and you then have to do the work yourself. The mattress on the sofa bed is so worn out that you can see every feather and the mattress is really dirty. We have never been as disappointed as this time in this hotel and we will consider coming back again.

Very good 3* in an excellent location. Food/buffet good

Very unpleasant treatment when I arrived at the hotel, nonchalant staff, nicer when I checked out. Poorly cleaned, not least the bathroom, disgusting! Very few facilities, those that were previously in the hotel are gone. The hotel's former charm and somewhat luxurious atmosphere is as if blown away.

Were always nice there on the beach

Yes, the house would be happy about a renovation, but I knew that from other reviews. Yes, there are a few dented spots in the room, but nothing that bothers you (unless you want it to bother you). It was clean. The location is great, the sea is right in front of your nose, the view is beautiful. The equipment is for four people and is sufficient even if you only stay a few days and have booked without meals. There is an indoor playground for the children, which is nice in bad weather.

Staff very friendly... can't move into the room until 5 p.m., not so great. I've known the system for years, but it's time to do something. Old, worn-out, I would almost say worn-out, furniture, WiFi very bad, relatively small TV, kitchen ok, beds comfortable, bathroom tiny, bathtub with shower curtain. (You can really save yourself the carelessly thrown bar of soap) These are no longer standards these days. And as great as the sea view is, it no longer justifies the price of over 100 euros/night. As much as we enjoyed staying with you, that will probably be the last time. And please don't write the standard sentence that always says that renovations are being planned.

Great hotel with super nice staff

A visually not so appealing hotel on a super beautiful island. We have been here at the hotel a few times during the summer holidays with our children, the last time in 2019. The staff was always friendly and the food was delicious and we always slept well. If you like a bit of hustle and bustle, this is the right place on the beach 😉.

We only ate in the restaurant downstairs - but that was good. Thanks!

Very good sea view, rooms have their own charm.

The only thing I didn't like about the small apartment, not just a room, was that there was no shower in the bathroom, but a bathtub. This was difficult with my walking disability. Accessibility was also not optimal in other ways. The food and service was very good! And the location, right by the sea, just great!

Very cool Arne Jacobsen atmosphere. Delicious IfA hot dogs

Were there by bus! Food was very tasty and plentiful!

Actually, I had written a little more. But apparently it wasn't transferred! So me again!

There are 3 tall buildings on the southern beach of Fehmarn that initially don't fit into the landscape. As a guest, this opinion changes immediately. The location is perfect, the leisure activities in the castle and the surrounding area leave nothing to be desired and good weather (with lots of wind) is part of Fehmarn. There are sea views in all rooms and the one from the upper floors is priceless. In our opinion, the price/performance ratio is more than ok. Beach lovers, bicycle tourists and walkers who want to enjoy the fresh air are perfectly accommodated here at a very good price. We have been guests on the island for over 30 years and in the early days we also had other accommodations in addition to the IFA Hotel. We have been booking the IFA Hotel several times a year for 20 years and have been guests in all of the hotels (from the Vitamar to the holiday apartments in the marina). The furnishings have a maritime charm, are old-fashioned for some, but bright, friendly, practical, clean, with plenty of storage space and good beds. The kitchen area is often small, but sufficient and equipped with the essentials. All in all, the equipment is getting old, but the quality is good and cannot be criticized. If something is wrong, the reception will help you quickly and friendly. In 30 years we have never experienced unfriendly employees. This is also what sets the IFA Hotel apart! The entire complex, including the associated restaurants, shops, sports and gaming facilities in the Vitarium, offers leisure and relaxation opportunities at any time of the year. The adjacent wave pool, which guests can use free of charge for 2 hours a day, is highly recommended, not only outside the summer season. By the way, each additional hour only costs 1 euro. A day ticket becomes a bargain! Overall, a 100% recommendation from us.

in 2024 there are still hotels in Germany where there is no normal internet access or even breakfast bags for sandwiches and the walk to the reception takes up to 15 minutes because the rooms are located one kilometer away from the reception.

Apartments are in great need of renovation. The only nice thing about the hotel is the view

Super friendly ladies and gentlemen at reception. Immediately received in a friendly manner and well informed. Admirable given the high number of people. For that, another 5 star plus. We were able to change apartments thanks to a very attentive employee. We have been coming to IFA for 31 years and this apartment was very familiar to us. We also celebrated our wedding anniversary on Fehmarn this year. The furnishings in the rooms are as they were back then. Unfortunately a bit too worn in parts. But that doesn't bother us. But they are very clean.

It was another very nice vacation. The view is breathtaking. Above all, every single holidaymaker has the same beautiful view of the Baltic Sea from one of the rooms in the 3 towers. It is a maximum of 30 meters to the beach. So ideally located for families with children to build sand castles or simply chill out on the beach in a beach chair or at the 360° bar and enjoy the weather and the view. Furthermore, it is even possible to do a mother-child treatment here. Also ideally located for this. If the weather is bad, there are also plenty of options for things to do with children. The hotel itself also has a playground inside. However, the rooms are a little old and in need of a makeover. Otherwise highly recommended.

The furniture wasn't such a great sight. Already a little old. But you're actually only in the room to sleep. The view is great. The staff 5 stars. Always nice, cheerful staff when eating.

This year we weren't happy at all. The request I expressed when booking was not taken into account. As a couple we were given two single beds, which we first had to put together. The room was still dirty/not cleaned and there was still food from the event in the fridge. The next day; A room was being cleaned... using a white towel from the bathroom, the table was wiped with one hand while the "gentleman" held his smartphone in the other hand and made a phone call. Despite the smoking ban, people smoked in the bar and the bartender said nothing or even joked around with these guests. I also had to wait almost 10 minutes before I could place my drink order. The bartender preferred chatting to other guests rather than serving because they spoke the same local language as him. Incidentally, there was smoking throughout the entire facility. Also on the balcony. Thank you for protecting non-smokers. In the “Windrose” restaurant you were treated very unprofessionally in the evening. The waiting times for memory cards, food and drinks were extremely long. Since you only have 1.5 hours, this is unreasonable. After the heavy rain, the balcony was not usable for several days because the balcony was completely under water and did not drain. The lady at the breakfast buffet deserves special mention. Very friendly, attentive, competent and quick. With this, the IFA has an absolute highlight and a great employee.

Outdated hotel with furnishings from the 70s, single beds could not be pushed together.

The hotel is not recommended for non-smokers or people who don't like the smell of cigarettes. Positive: The location of the hotel is very good. It is located close to the beach - which is very beautiful - and offers - depending on the room - a beautiful view. Negative: The rooms - and some of the hallways - smell very strongly of cigarette smoke/tobacco. The hotel is not for people - like us - who don't like that. After the smell of cigarettes hit us as soon as we opened the door of our - first - room, after many conversations and back and forth with the reception we tried out two more rooms - which weren't any better - and the lady at the reception did the same for us was also given an anti-tobacco odor spray (which she conjured up under the reception desk (-> seems to be a known problem) and which also smells impossible), we asked for our money back. We got this – after the whole ordeal – without any further problems. We then looked for other accommodation and will not be visiting the IFA Hotel on Fehmarn again. Unfortunately, you cannot rely on the information “non-smoking hotel/room” here (even if there is a “no smoking” sign on every room door). Check-in is also only possible late (from 5:00 p.m.). The rooms are - as in the pictures - compactly furnished, but the furniture (e.g. sofa) is already very worn and no longer looks like it does in the pictures.

No room Food and friendly service It's all ok

The location and the view are simply fantastic. Service is perfect. All preliminary inquiries were answered promptly and friendly. Our wish to get the apartment as high up as possible was fulfilled. 15th floor with sea view in the middle building in Berlin straight ahead. Doesn't get any better. The apartment is simply furnished, but had everything as advertised. The only thing that probably hasn't been vacuumed for a while is under the couch. But okay, the mattresses were really great and the storage of the e-bikes in the garages in the parking lot was just great. Breakfast was also good. All in all we liked it and will come back. Thanks.

The hotel complex is already getting old. However, everything was available in our room and very clean, which also applies to the hotel. The staff was always friendly and always had an open ear to answer any questions. Breakfast costs €17.50 per person, but unfortunately there was a bit of freshness and variety missing. Unfortunately, the snack bar between the hotel buildings only offers Curywurst & Co. The great location right on the beach and the unique view make up for the small disadvantages. We really liked it! We'll be back! ☺️ We were also there in 2024 and we really enjoyed it again 👍🏼

Great rooms, bathroom needs to be renovated, or at least the shower curtain with the moldy corners replaced. Service first class. We felt comfortable.

Always very nice! I can only recommend!
