Traditional Kühlungsborn hotel on the Baltic Sea coast

Baltic Sea bolthole with classic flair in Germany’s picturesque town of Kühlungsborn - includes breakfast, one dinner & spa access

• Classic coastal ambience: Immerse yourself in the heart of Kühlungsborn's seaside heritage at Hotel IV Jahreszeiten. This traditional hotel isn't just surrounded by the charm of the early resort era – it's right in the middle of it. Step back in time within one of the original, preserved buildings, and feel the history come alive. Just a few steps away, the gentle Baltic waves lap at the shore, accessible via the beach promenade right outside your door.

• Baltic culinary bites: Embark on a culinary journey at the hotel, where a variety of dining options await. Get a taste for the coast with regional seafood specialties at the Seaside Restaurant, indulge in classic international cuisine in the Orangerie, or explore sophisticated eats from the show grill at the Wolkenlos. With three restaurants to choose from, each offering a unique dining experience, there's something to tantalise every taste bud.

• Wellness haven by the sea: Beyond the indoor pool with its inviting loungers, the spa’s sauna area leaves nothing to be desired. Try the traditional Kühlungsborn stone sauna, relax in the unique seagrass sanarium, or venture into the Finnish outdoor sauna. A coloured light steam bath, experience showers, and a menu of soothing optional massages and cosmetic treatments complete your wellness experience.

How to get there

The nearest international airport to the hotel is Hamburg which is located just under two and a half hours away by car. The small, regional airport of Rostock–Laage Airport is also a 50-minute drive. If arriving via a four-hour train journey from Hamburg Central Station, take the long-distance service to Rostock and then change to a regional train that will take you to Bad Doberan. From here, you could catch the historic steam locomotive "Molli" to Kühlungsborn in 45 minutes.
