Das James
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
Worth booking if you want the highest-rated hotel in our Flensburg sample, with a spa and pool, and the price is not a problem. Skip it if you want to walk to the old town gates, or if €403 a night is more than a short stay justifies.

Couples on a special trip and travellers who want a full five-star stay with facilities to enjoy on site are the main audience. The hotel lists a spa, a pool, a gym, a restaurant, a terrace, family rooms, air conditioning and free Wi-Fi.
Families and pet owners may also find it useful, as both are tagged in our data. Check the pet rules before travelling.
Skip it if you mostly want a bed close to the sights. It sits a long walk from the two landmarks in our data, and it costs far more than our other Flensburg picks.
Location and getting around
The address is 30 Fördepromenade, in Flensburg. Guests rate the location 9.1.
Nordertor is about 2.1 km away, roughly 26 minutes on foot. The Isted Lion is about 3 km, roughly 38 minutes, which is far enough that a taxi or public transport makes more sense.
These walking times are straight-line estimates and have not been checked. Parking is not listed in our data, so drivers should ask the hotel about options and fees.
What guests say
Staff draw consistent praise. Reviewers describe a friendly, professional team with attentive service and a warm welcome.
Breakfast is another highlight, with an extensive buffet and a wide range of fresh, high-quality choices.
Beds split opinion. Some guests find them comfortable, while others mention soft mattresses and poor pillows. If you are fussy about bedding, ask whether other pillow types are available.
