Hotel description
Location: Peaceful location near the city center
The Hotel Birke is situated in a village-like outer district of Kiel, on the edge of a forest. The inner city is a 10 minute ride by car.
The Birke Hotel is located somewhat outside the center of Kiel, just on the border with the forest. Anyone coming to the capital city of Schleswig Holstein for business or to explore can reach the center in 5 minutes while staying in peace and quiet. Clear design with classic patterns and colors give the hotel a perfect balance between tradition and modernity. A knowledge of the latest trends is most evident in the hotel spa with pool and sauna landscape. Another highlight is the lovingly arranged courtyard, where beach chairs invite guests to relax around a small pond. Fischers Fritze, the hotel restaurant, expertly juggles traditional Schleswig-Holstein comfort food with fresh, creative cuisine.
Wellness Hotel: Pool, sauna and algae oil massages
Although the Hotel Birke primarily has made a name for itself as a business hotel, it’s a real insider secret for wellness lovers. Its forest location offers the opportunity for extended walks or jogging. Afterwards, a 750m²-large wellness area awaits, with several saunas, a sanarium (low temperature sauna) and heated swimming pool (6x12 yards). Additionally, various massages and spa treatments based on sea products are available to choose from.
4-star hotel: Chic ambience & high comfort
When it comes to quality and comfort, you can depend on decades of experience at the Hotel Birke Kiel. One of its unmissable strengths is the clean and well-tended atmosphere. Rooms are partially housed within the original building, partially in a new building. All of them are outfitted with tasteful furniture like comfortable double beds, basket chairs and cherrywood desks. If you need more space, you can book one of the maisonette rooms with a living area on the lower floor and a bed on the upper level. Flatscreen TV, wireless and a comfortable shower round off a pleasant living environment.
Food & Drink: North-German cuisine interpreted in a modern way
Cuisine occupies a very important place in Birke’s design concept. When it comes to food, the hotel clearly exhibits strong local ties: the day begins with a Northern German-style breakfast buffet. For lunch and dinner hotel restaurant Fischers Fritze serves seasonal and regional cuisine with a sense for tradition yet a modern touch. Exclusively freshly prepared dishes made from local ingredients appear on the menu, from hearty fish soup to Kiel Sprats all the way to steak from Holsteiner cows. Even the salad dressing, available in several variations, is made in-house. Above and beyond this, there is a cozy fireside bar and a bistro in the wellness area serving small delicious snacks in addition to tea and juice.
Athletics & Leisure: Forest running, bike riding and golf
The hotel’s location is perfectly suited for athletic activities in fresh air. The service team has plenty of helpful tips and is happy to provide active support. In the neighboring forest there are wonderful jogging routes. Biking or inline skating is possible on the nearby Baltic Sea dike; bicycles are available to rent from the hotel. The service team will reserve golf tee times, water sports and fishing trips for guests. Furthermore, Nordic walking and aqua fitness courses are offered under professional instruction.
