What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Hotel is located at good location close to lake. The rooms are small but comfortable. The breakfast was good. They also have vegan and vegetarian options. Hotel has open balcony with lake view. Overall I liked it.”
“I spent five nights at the Agora (Bismarkalee 5) recently, and it was a very pleasant stay. The hotel is close to the City Center (five to ten minutes to walk...depending on which way you go), and easily to get to by bus from the Main Station. The area around is very nice and offers much to visitors and locals. The Aasee for instance is an artifical inner city lake from the 1920s, and there s lots to discover & enjoy around it - like Parks, the old Zoo etc. My room (with bathroom) was very comfortable and of high standard. I did not book with breakfast included (as I prefer to go to local cafes etc.), but was told that I could get coffee/tea for free...or to enjoy my own food when breakfast time was over. There s also a huge balcony (at the breakfast room) that is accesible at any time. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and made me feel welcome right away. The only thing that might be challenging for some people is that there is at times (weekends & good weather) quite a number of people hanging around on the vast lawn at the lake. Personally that did not affect my stay, but I think it is okay to mention it. (But then Münster is not a small town, and places near the city center can be a bit noisy at times.) I will certainly book a room there again, and can highly recommend the Agora.”
“Our suite was wonderful and we had a gorgeous view overlooking the lake. With the lake and park comes a bit of noise at night, but it didn't hamper our stay. Wish we had stayed longer than a night. Very comfortable.”
“We stayed 3 nights in end of June (Skulptur Projekt) , Hotel itself is in a faculty building , rooms are on the 3rd floor , great location on the lake , a couple of minutes from center of town . The price range is excellent for Munster and Westphalia. They got bikes which is key to getting around. Friendly and helpful front desk . Small but very nice functional rooms ( no aircon but probably only necessary 1 or 2 weeks a year). Nice Breakfast included , dinning area and 2 terraces with view on the lake to hang out when not cruising around town. Highly Recommend .”
