The travel time for this route is absolutely justified. I also really liked the comfort in my compartment with a seat and table. The only drawback on the entire journey was unfortunately the furnishings. I would have liked a little more power sockets, especially at the table.

IconPunctuality
This was my return journey in second class and this was a wonderful journey that I can definitely recommend. I sat in my seat and the seat looked very clean. The surfaces were clean and the toilets were also clean. People travelled very comfortably as the environment was very clean. I ordered a tea, it arrived without a long wait, was very tasty, fresh and reasonably priced. The staff were very friendly.

IconUnpunctual
The train journey from Berlin to Bonn offered mixed experiences. The cleanliness leaves something to be desired, as some areas of the train were not optimally cleaned. The punctuality was unfortunately not perfect either, as we were slightly late. The food was okay, but nothing special. The wifi worked well and made for pleasant internet use. The value for money was acceptable, although improvement in cleanliness and punctuality is needed.

This was my journey back in 2nd class with an accompanying person. When I arrived at the main station, my train was already there and when I got on, I was also greeted nicely by the staff. After a short time, the train started on time. The seats were very comfortable. There was a lot of choice on the menu, I ordered a menu that included main course, drink, side dish and dessert, which was very cheap, arrived very quickly, was tasty and fresh. Not only the toilets but the whole train was clean, even our seats and the windows were clean. After about 3 hours we also arrived on time. I can pass on this ride. A wonderful ride.

This was my return journey in second class and I really enjoyed it. The only negative thing about this trip was the price, but I think it was still worth it. My train arrived on time. I got on and sat down. Then I tested the wifi and noticed how good it was. I also had several sockets at my comfy seat. The view from the window during the journey was great. It was very cold outside, but not inside as the heaters were on. In retrospect, I have to praise the cleaning staff because the train was very clean.

IconLong journey duration
My personal train journey from Berlin to Bonn was quite interesting. The cleanliness of the train was impressive and the compartments and sanitary facilities were always well maintained, which made the journey pleasant. The service staff proved to be attentive and friendly. The price-performance ratio was also satisfactory. The amenities and service offered were in line with the price paid and made the journey good value for money. However, there were also negative aspects. The interior of the train was in need of improvement - more comfort and variety would have been desirable. The seats proved to be somewhat uncomfortable, which impaired travelling comfort. The long journey time was another disadvantage, which led to fatigue. To summarise, the train journey from Berlin to Bonn was mostly positive thanks to the cleanliness, the friendly staff and the acceptable price-performance ratio. However, improved equipment, more comfortable seats and a shorter journey time could make this journey much more enjoyable.
