Hotels Near Old Pumping Station in Bremen

The Ibis Budget hotel is in a great location right opposite the Hauptbahnhof (main train station for the city). If you’re looking to go to the Bremer Freimarkt in October, it’s right behind the Hauptbahnhof so you couldn’t find a better place. The Altstadt (old town) isn’t far away either, and you can get buses, trams or taxis right outside. This isn’t a hotel for peace and quiet - there is lots going on around it and it was fairly noisy inside and out with all the hustle and bustle of city life. We booked online and I was able to check in prior to arrival which was helpful - on arrival we just picked up keys and signed the forms, and the bill was sent later by email. The room is as you’d expect - very basic but clean and tidy. Everything worked and it all looked fresh. The beds were fairly comfortable and the shower was good. Unfortunately our air conditioning didn’t seem to work properly - there seemed to be no cooling function. As a consequence the room got really hot and stuffy overnight. We couldn’t really open the door because the city outside was noisy. The other serious issue we had was returning to our room after a day out to find it had been left unlocked by the cleaners. Luckily nothing had been taken, but I was not happy. The price was reasonable and the 12pm checkout is later than many hotels. We just had to drop our keys in a box in the lobby. In summary - this hotel’s best asset is its location. If you want to be in the middle of things:l, this place is for you.

Arrived tired and perplexed to see 3-language sign of “Caution: Weightless Area Beyond this Point” in the lobby. Coming up to the room and seeing the galaxy-carpet and spaceship themed interior was a really nice surprise. And a pancake-making machine and a whole batch af truly smiling eggs made breakfast a big hit! Oh, and make sure to notice the “stolpersteine” (stumbling-stones) on the streets outside. A whole different thing, but so touching, chilling and important not to forget!

My stay was great. The staff was always helpful, and willing to accommodate everything you needed. Most spoke English very well which was also helpful and appreciated. The bar was great, the food was great, staff and amenities was great. Any time I'm in Germany I'll be staying at this hotel.

At Motel One Hotels you know what one expects: not too much, but also not too little. I was in the framework of a service trip at Motel one Bremen. Friendly check in and nice staff. Breakfast with good quality and selection. Personal in both nights a little muu at the bar, unfortunately not a pill from the box, but only from the bottle. Rooms very clean in the usual standard. Hotel very well reachable with train right in front of the door and a cat jump to Weser/Battle.

Was up in NY for graduation ceremony with our family and had the double suite with a separate living room and kitchenette. Very helpful and pleasant staff, excellent neighborhood with lots of great restaurants. And washer /dryer available is a big plus

Everything is good, but there is no independent parking lot of its own and the parking fee is very expensive

The breakfast was very good, the room was clean and the service was very good. It is very close to the old town and the shopping center. It is acceptable to walk from the train station, about 1000m.

Cannot understand the recent review. Everyone we came in contact with at the hotel was exceptionally friendly and helpful from reception to the cleaners. The breakfast buffet was very good with lots to choose from, fried eggs were not overcooked or greasy, fresh bread and rolls, big muesli selection, fresh fruit... The bed and room were clean and comfortable and not overheated, like many other hotels. There is a bus stop directly in front of the hotel, and as buses to and from the centre come every 10 minutes most of the day. We had a mix-up with credit card payment too, but it was all sorted out quickly and professionally. We will return next time in Bremen!

I wrote a long review of this hotel and when it came to uploading photos, it was gone. 😪 Anyway, this hotel is superb for tourists especially first timers in Bremen cos it is walking distance from the airport and tram stop. We did not need a taxi to and from the airport cos we had only one 20 kg luggage. They have two nicely working lift. It is so clean and staff are very friendly. It seems a new hotel cos the carpetings are really clean. The room is just right for the three of us. There is both a microwave and a fridge which we very rarely find in UK hotels or none at all. They mostly served cold breakfast and only egg for cooked breakfast. It did not matter to me cos I eat light for breakfast but it mattered to my husband who eats heavy breakfast. There is a McDonald’s near the airport which I guess is open either til after midnight or 24 hours. We saw a restaurant across the street but we have not tried it. There is also an eat all you can restaurant near the airport but it looks like under refurbishment. See my photos of the room to see for yourself.

Reception was very friendly and helpful . Modern hotel with lift and good bike storage . Room quite large with good ventilation. Comfortable bed and nice clean and bright bathroom with a bathtub as well as a separate shower . Not too close to other restaurant choices and with a limited menu but the pizzas were very good and the price point for them as well as beverages was very reasonable. On outskirts of Bremen in a corporate area but along the bicycle path and very convenient.
