ReviewsReviews for the bus trip from Berlin to Hanover
The customer opinion was acquired via Cimenio. Cimenio incentivises its users for giving an honest opinion and proving the booking with a photo of the travel ticket.
Advantages
The tickets are cheapAdditional seat can be bookedPunctualityDisadvantages
NoneThe ticket for my journey was very cheap and for this price there is no better alternative. We had a few minutes delay at departure, but this also happens with other means of travel. The bus was clean and well ventilated. Not all seats were occupied and therefore it was not so noisy. I booked the extra seat, which is possible for a few euros at the time of booking and makes for a more relaxed journey. The staff are nice and actually everything is positive, especially the price. I will book this trip again.
Advantages
The bus trip is inexpensiveThe bus journey is comfortableThe bus is on timeDisadvantages
The internet did not workI often travel by bus and would like to recommend the bus journey from Berlin ZOB to Hannover ZOB. Unlike other means of transport, the bus is the cheapest option for me to travel. It's easy to book online and the bus ticket is valid digitally on your mobile phone. All very hassle-free, practical and sustainable. The journey was comfortable and it wasn't as stressful as on the train as there is much less walking traffic. Unfortunately, the internet didn't work on this trip, which was a bit annoying. Nevertheless, the bus journey is recommended as the value for money is fabulous.
Advantages
Good priceQuiet rideOn timeDisadvantages
NoneI enjoyed the bus ride from Berlin to Hanover because it was flawless. The journey was relaxed and the atmosphere on the bus was calm and positive. No one was too loud or disruptive. The bus and the toilet were clean. I like travelling by bus as the atmosphere is quieter than on the train. We arrived at our destination a few minutes late after a pleasant journey. Always a pleasure and highly recommended. Especially with the great prices.
Advantages
Quiet journeySuper air conditionedPunctual departure and arrivalDisadvantages
NoneOn the journey from Berlin to Hanover by bus, everything went flawlessly. We left and arrived on time, no changing buses. The bus was well air-conditioned and the atmosphere was calm and pleasant. The toilet was very clean and the seats very comfortable. It was also not crowded, so I had a free seat next to me and could stretch out comfortably. Very friendly bus driver who made funny jokes with the passengers before the journey. We had a good time and enjoyed ourselves very much. I always enjoy taking the bus again.
Advantages
PriceWifi accessPunctualityDisadvantages
No toiletsThe journey with FlixBus was fine. The price for the journey was very reasonable. There was also the option of booking additional luggage.
I can't complain about the punctuality. The bus arrived at the station on time. There was also wifi access and power sockets above each seat.
However, there were no toilets on the bus. This is not a problem on short journeys, but on longer journeys it could be problematic for children or older people.
