Lighthouse Hotel & Spa

New and stylish hotel in Busum, beautifully located directly at the North Sea. Very friendly service, and nicely appointed rooms (we had a deluxe room facing the sea which was spacious and had all amenities one could expect). Convenient underground parking for a small surcharge. Great breakfast buffet, two excellent restaurants, an ocean spa, and an in-house COVID test center - what else can you ask for these days? Relatively pricey but worth every Euro. A great find, and even better than the other ’Heimathafen’ hotels in St. Peter Ording and Heiligenhafen.

The hotel is a true gem at the Northsea Coast. Beautiful interior, wonderful service, great view. We had a room facing the sea and the view was breathtaking. We had massages in the Spa which were very relaxing and the dinner in Schnüsch Restaurant. This restaurant should get a star. A true gourmet restaurant. We’ll be back!

We just got back from a great weekend stay at the Lighthouse Hotel and it was great! We know in advance that Bühsum was probably going to be a sleepy town—and we were visiting it during the off season and with horrible weather, in fact a storm. So we knew that it was probably going to be not a lot of action. We did enjoy the promenade, which was just located in front of the hotel. I could imagine pleasant afternoons there in the summer. Given the fact that the weather was horrible, it didn’t leave us much choice but to stay indoors and enjoy what the hotel had on offer. And disappointed we were not! It was a complete wellness package—you actually don’t need to leave the hotel to have a relaxing time. The wellness facilities were top notch with a small gym and quiet zones. I even took advantage of a 30 minute massage at their spa. The spa has a lot of interesting offers but were bit on the pricey side—but I think it’s worth it. The treatment was excellent. The small gym at the end of the spa was also quite adequate. But I could imagine that it gets tight when there are more than 2 people there. Breakfast was amazing with excellent and varied food. Get a table with a view of the water. There was a storm brewing during breakfast but it was warm and dry and cozy in the restaurant—simply great! The hotel also offers a garage to park your car and you get a ticket to drive out on your departure day. The price was ok at EUR 9 per day. Not included in the price is the Kur Tax of about EUR 1,50 per person per day. Word of advice: Keep the ticket that they hand out at check in as these may be inspected when you’re taking a walk at the promenade! We also had dinner at the Landgang restaurant, which was just ok. The Bar Alter Speicher is fun! It’s got dark maritime interiors completely in theme with the area. Drinks were good and service was fast. There might be 2-3 bars within walking distance from the hotel, but I would recommend staying here for a night cap. Our room didn’t face the harbor unfortunately, but I recommend getting one with a terrace facing the sea. All guests were German.—so I wouldn’t know how you’d get by with a foreign language. Although I’m sure the staff speaks English. All in all, a great new hotel that I would definitely recommend.
