A small, characterful hotel in the centre of town. Friendly, helpful staff. Room was good but lacked storage. Food was great, although portions were huge. A short walk took you to the town's many attractions. Highly recommended.

Super friendly staff
Really friendly service and staff. Great cozy restaurant. Room and bed a bit old fashioned and not most comfortable but great value for money.

A taste of Denmark
Hotel Ribe was an authentic, older Danish hotel with no frills. The staff were very friendly and we enjoyed sitting in their restaurant/common room and sipping a cognac or hot chocolate. It is ideally located in the center of this medieval town, steps from the Ribe Cathedral. All in all, I would say it is reasonable value for money.

This is a vintage inn. There is a lovely pub restaurant downstairs with comfy lounge area and pool table for guests. This was seriously the best food we had on our trip, including both meat-based and the vegetarian dish which my daughter ordered. We will 100% plan to come again. We unfortunately arrived the same day Denmark announced a lock down due to Covid19. The proprietor was gracious and kind, and assured us that if we were ever stuck she would never turn us away and would always take care of us. She was very kind and has won our loyalty. Highly recommended.

Perfect location close to old Ribe
We chose to stay in a room with a private bath which was smart. We noticed there were three nearby rooms using a shared bathroom outside our door. We had the front corner room with two windows which was nice for cross ventilation as it was unseasonably warm. The room was very basic, but the bed was comfortable and the location was the best part of the whole place! Just a block or so from the old Church and the pedestrian streets.

Perfect spot for this solo traveler
Great place in the heart of Ribe, just a few blocks from the town center. I loved the little pub downstairs, the staff was great. Breakfast we good. The room was perfect for me. Very old building with renovated bathroom and comfortable bed, nice clean sheets and comfy pillows. Wi-fi too.

Historic hotel in old Ribe
Comfortable room. A little cramped, but you expect that in an old building. Friendly helpful staff, with a good breakfast. Great location in the middle of Ribe. Parking was on-street, but free and close by.

Fantastic People . They have Bundy Rum
I arrived at Ribe Hotel and straight away was made to fell welcome . The owners and staff are great people and even have Bundy Rum in the bar which is my favourite drink . After the Bundy ran out Neils and Tina took me to their home where we drank from their private stash and even cooked me dinner . You cant beat that for hospitality . Neils also gave me a lift to the golf course . All the staff made me feel welcome and were very helpful . I will be coming back to Ribe and I will be staying at Ribe Hotel . You should do the same .

Good location and fair price
Small historical hotel in a good location for exploring all of old Ribe. It's a bit old and a little musty smelling but the room was comfortable and seemed clean. It does lie on one of the main thoroughfares to the old town area that is wide enough to handle trucks so expect some vehicle noise in the early morning. Staff were very friendly and the small restaurant/bar is pleasant.

Loved Hotel Ribe!
The town of Ribe and Hotel Ribe were the highlights of our nine days in Denmark. The hotel was perfect for our styles and mood. I am 66 and my daughter is 24, and we both loved it! Funky (in the best way) and warm and welcoming and colorful. Love the checkin at the attractive bar. Both women at that station (upon checkin and the next day) were very friendly and helpful and relaxed and informative. The bar itself served wonderful food and beer and akvavit. The breakfast was very good. The bed, a queen-sized which we shared, was very comfortable. The bathroom was tiny, but so what, it worked. The only drawback was no elevator, but we managed. If you want a big, glamorous, cushy place, you might not appreciate Hotel Ribe. But if you like warm, scenic, quirky, this just might be just for you. It sure was for us!

Family run small hotel, was worth it.
A small, but friendly and delightful little hotel, located right in the old part of Ribe. The hotel is located one block from the major church/square of Ribe, in a very quite neighborhood. It is literally no more than 10 minutes walk to anywhere in town you want to go. The hotel is small, family run, and serves a few dishes for dinner, if one does not want to go out in town for dinner. They also have a reasonably well stocked bar (it is a small hotel, they do not have everything!). The bar and the hotel shots down at 10:00 PM, be aware. While the room was big with its own bathroom (not all rooms have this feature!), it would be served well with a bit of an upgrade. It was clean, functioned well and the staff (family) were all friendly, polite and knowledgeable. I would use it again, if I went to Ribe.

Hygge in Ribe
A very hygge place in the old part of Ribe run by people who take an interest in the guests who sleep in their seven rooms. One trick: I was unable to pay with my signature-based credit card. Hopefully those will soon be as obsolete in the U.S. as they are in Denmark.

Small hotel in a lovely town
C.harming medieval town. Domkirke is interesting but main charm is wandering around the town. Tourist office has a suggested route. Night watchman's tour, while free was a disappointment. His English was limited and the crowd was large; difficult to understand what he was trying to say. For us the highlight was renting a bicycle at the Danhostel and doing a circuit through the marshlands which led to the sea. Flat terrain although exposed to headwinds. Great views of the Wadden Sea

Lever slet ikke op til forventningerne
Desvære levede det ikke op til forventningerne. Hotellet er meget slidt. Der er mangel på varmt vand. Dette afhjælper man med at tape et skilt op, der foreslår at den første badende er tålmodig og venter op til 4 minutter på varmt vand. Dette varme vand kom aldrig rigtig. Til info, så hjælper et skilt ikke.... det gør til gengældt en cirkulationspumpe. Badeværelset var noget skrabet, med en rusten bruseniche og et toiletbræt der ikke rigtig ville blive oppe. Hoveddøren til værelset kunne ikke lukke tæt. Man kunne se lys ude fra gangen når denne var lukket. Generelt virkede det ikke som om der, på nogen måde, blev kælet for stedet. Og når dette er sagt, så var det ikke et discount-hotel. Vi endte med at betale dkk 940 for et dobbeltværelse med morgenmad... Det halve ville have været mere rimeligt.

Rent og pænt
Rent og pænt. Havde bestilt værelse til tre, og blev temmelig overrasket over at få wc og bad på gangen. Det fremgik ikke tydeligt, og havde ikke bestilt det, hvis jeg havde vist det. Men hyggelig autentisk atmosfære og venlig betjening.

Ældre hotel med patina og begrænsninger
Hotellet er placeret i en ældre bygning med patina, men også med en række utidssvarende forhold som det tager op til 3 minutter før der er varmt vand i bruser, gulve knirker, dørene slutter ikke tæt osv. Vi havde forventet at krostuen var til rådighed for os (vi var 6 personer) om aftenen, men det var ikke muligt, så vi måtte sidde på værelser i stedet. Endvidere var morgenmadens udvalg og kvalitet under vores forventninger.
