Clean quaint rooms, super friendly staff, and great breakfast with just the right amount of selection, and you can't beat the free champagne offered in the mornings. Best location if you're not looking for beach view. This hotel is right in the middle of town. Quick walk to it all. It felt like home.

A heartwarming winter stay, simply wonderful!
We stayed at the Hotel Weisse Düne this past winter, and it was still an absolutely heartwarming experience. Outside it was cold and wintry. Inside, it was cozy, quiet, and simply pleasant. Exactly what you want when you really want to unwind.
Arriving & Feeling at Home
Even at check-in, we had the feeling: Here, you're not just a "guest," you're truly welcome. The team is incredibly friendly, attentive, and genuine. Not at all forced, but genuinely warm and welcoming. This characterized our entire stay.
Room & Comfort
Our room was fantastic! Clean, well-maintained, cozy, and perfect for relaxing. Sure, the decor isn't modern, but that's what makes it so charming. Coming back inside after a cold day and feeling completely relaxed was wonderful.
Breakfast
The breakfast was truly excellent: fresh, with a good selection and high quality.
Atmosphere
What we especially appreciated was the calm and pleasant atmosphere. No stress, no hustle and bustle, simply a place where you feel completely at ease. The hotel has character and at the same time that "home away from home" feeling. :D
Hotel Weisse Düne and its team managed to make it possible for us to completely relax during the cold season. A definite recommendation, as we'd love to come back!
Warmest regards,
Joshi and Annette

Had an amazing time with my mother for her birthday 2 weeks ago!! We shared a room and had the best view of the all the city with the lighthouse, train station, all the day and night people watching, and even the church bells on Sunday and Wednesday!!! The highlight was always the complimentary breakfast each morning!!! Nothing compares to this beautiful spread each morning, in the US, wish they would take lessons, because the breakfast we had each morning was above par!!! Any kind of coffee/hot tea, juice, and the different kinds of cheese,meats, eggs, even salmon cream cheese and bagel lochs!!! German brotchen.. so many different kinds of bread, jams and jellies, even fresh seafood for the toppings on your breads and toast, fresh tomatoes and cucumbers, fresh melon, I could go on and on… even once the breakfast was closed at 11am, if you needed. Water, soda, beer, wine, etc.. you could go down to the dining area grab what you wanted and leave a little note so once you checked out, you could pay for it then! We had a little refrigerator in our room, and each day we would go to one of the local grocery stores and get our snacks and beverages and be set for the night, once we were done for the evening! Our windows stayed propped open, bc in Germany all the windows can be either propped open or opened all together.. the fresh cool air at night and in the mornings was so amazing!!! The bathroom was spacious, even a tall wall heater that served as a heater and clothing/towel rack to warm and dry clothes and towels was so great,too!! Each morning during breakfast they would clean the room and set out new towels and take the trash!! If I could give more than 5 stars I would! I really really enjoyed this beautiful gem of an island!! Mostly the memories with my mother who lives in Germany and I in the US, it was the perfect vacation for both of us! Borkum has so much to see and do! Walking distance to everything and so many cafes and stores and restaurants to choose from!! Was saddened to leave but can’t wait to come back! The little train that takes you to and from the 2 hour ferry ride is so sweet too! The entire experience was amazing!!! Adorable and kind people on the island!! Can’t wait to come back

Very friendly welcome, we were offered a coffee on arrival. The room was very nice and modern. Kettle and a large TV was also available. The bathroom was great. All in all, everything was very clean. We also felt very comfortable in the breakfast room. Even on Sunday there was fresh bread from the bakery. The personnel is very friendly and courteous. We look forward to the next visit 🙂👍

Cozy and clean hotel with some wellness facilities. Direct access to the beach and main street of Borkum.

We ordered a table from you four weeks ago and were really looking forward to the evening. When we sat down and waited, we were told that on Friday and Saturday only self-service at the buffet is possible for a whopping 48.50 euros per person. Why wasn't we told this when we made the reservation? We then left again and had difficulties getting a table anywhere else on a Saturday evening. Thank you very much.

We spent the weekend in Borkum and stayed 2 nights in the Inselhotel 4 Jahreszeiten.
First and last time, unfortunately.
Let me start with good things:
The room is not bad: not large but spacious enough, with a comfortable bed
The receptionist with the beard and the IT man understand customer service
Pool
Now the negative points:
Apart from the staf mentioned above, the staff was unfriendly and at times simply rude. In the restaurant they nicely indicated walking routes due to covid. If you make one wrong step you will be yelled at (I am looking at you short-blonde-haired lady).
The lift is as slow as a snail that just ate a sleeping tablet
Arrival from ferry is 11 am. You would expect that a 4 * hotel is ready for this, but NO, rooms ready at 2 pm. They offer to take hold of your luggage though (in an area accessible to literally anyone on the island)
Breakfast: you ask for a cheese omelette with peppers, you get a cheese omelette without peppers. You sit at the table and see everyone get served coffee, while forgetting my table. In the end have to get up and request it at the bar
Having a drink on the outside terrace: payment by bankcard not possible. You are asked to walk all over the island to find an atm. Unbelievable that cash-payments are so prevalent here.
Room: bathroom looks clean but smells of urine.
Wifi is unstable and does not connect well if you have an iphone
I had clearly expected more from this hotel. Unfortunately cannot recommend. 2 stars for the effort.
