Pros

The cleanliness of the toilets

The friendly staff

The fair ticket price

Cons

Delay

Many people

The train ride from Berlin to Mannheim was a solid experience overall. It was obvious that many people wanted to use this connection and finding a free seat was a challenge as most seats were reserved. The train was also unfortunately delayed, which was annoying. Nevertheless, there were some positive aspects to note. The toilets on the train were surprisingly clean and well maintained, which was thoughtful. The staff were polite and helpful during the journey, which made the trip more enjoyable. Another plus point was the ticket price, which was reasonable and affordable. Overall, the train journey was not perfect, but the cleanliness of the toilets, the friendly staff and the fair ticket price improved the overall impression.

Pros

Equipment sockets

Cons

Crowded

Train crew

Catering

My train journey from Berlin to Mannheim was unfortunately disappointing. The train was not only delayed but also overcrowded, resulting in an uncomfortable and crowded seat. The cleanliness on the train also left a lot to be desired as there were some dirty areas. The train staff were unhelpful and barely present. If there were any questions or problems, you felt let down. In addition, the selection of snacks and drinks was limited and overpriced. The cleanliness of the toilets was unfortunately also somewhat neglected and the toilets smelled a bit disgusting. The provision of power sockets, on the other hand, was okay Unfortunately, I cannot recommend the train connection from Berlin to Mannheim, as it lacks reliability, comfort and good service. There are certainly better travel options to cover this distance.

Pros

the view from the window

tasty food

Convenience

It was a great ride. The food was very tasty, there was also vegan food. It was very comfortable at the seat. The train was very nice and you had a beautiful view from the train. The staff were very nice and hygiene was taken care of. It was also very quiet on the train. The internet was good. I recommend this trip. There were no changes and there were no emergency changes. The journey took about five hours.

Pros

Relaxed and comfortable

On time

Nice service

Cons

Wifi with occasional hangs

The plan was to travel to Mannheim on Thursday, which worked out very well, and then return to Berlin on Tuesday. Then, however, the threatened strike intervened at short notice, which fortunately was resolved, so that I was able to depart normally and on time on Tuesday. The timetable had also completely returned to normal, so the journey to Berlin was very relaxed with an upgrade to first class. A short delay of about 10 minutes after Frankfurt was made up for without any problems. As I travelled during the day this time and the train was a little more crowded than on my night journey, the wifi wasn't quite as great as before, but was still good to use. The sanitary facilities were clean and there were also sufficient supplies of consumables such as paper and soap. The train staff was again remarkably friendly and the service in the on-board restaurant was top. Therefore, for my return journey, I again gave the train 5 stars, but I would also like to point out that it was a journey in first class.

Pros

Service Top

Cons

Unpleasant smell from the toilet

Was a quick trip. I was able to book online as well as from the location. There was free wifi and power sockets the whole way. In terms of cosiness, the seats were really very comfortable. The cleanliness of the toilets and seats were actually okay, only from the toilet came an unpleasant smell, but otherwise everything was really top, also the service was very friendly.

Pros

Cons

Travel

I recently travelled from Berlin Ostbahnhof to Mannheim. The train journey was very comfortable in itself. The facilities were top, wifi worked and the whole train was very clean! Unfortunately, there was some delay due to bad weather.

Pros

kind staff

cool atmosphere

The journey was very nice on the train, was very clean and spacious, people were very friendly, I went to the toilet and found a very hygienic environment, there was no internal defect, then I sat down, I slept and the journey was good, thanks to all the workers. I travelled in first class and my train also arrived on time. What is also very worth mentioning is the atmosphere on the train, as it was great. I can only pass on this trip.

Pros

I really enjoyed the journey from Berlin to Mannheim (my outward journey), as everything struck me as positive. I especially liked how comfortable it was on the train. The train was also very clean. The staff were very friendly. The food was delicious and relatively cheap. I can only pass on the trip, great trip.

Pros

Nice staff

Punctual arrival

Socket

Cons

Full train

The train arrived at its destination pretty much on time. It was only about 5-10 minutes late. The train was relatively full, which is why I reserved a seat in advance. I travelled in first class and found the DB staff very nice. The biscuits they gave out tasted great, but unfortunately I only got 2. I also like the fact that you can charge your tablet during the journey.

Deutsche Bahn operates the majority of long-distance routes in Germany with its IC and ICE trains. My journey from Berlin in the north-east of Germany to the south-west to Mannheim in Baden-Württemberg on an ICE was very pleasant and safe. The cleanliness of the seats and toilets was very good. The on-board bistro has a good selection at good prices and with nice service. I can always recommend travelling on the ICE.
