My seat

The return journey on the ICE from Berlin to Nuremberg was pleasant for the most part. One disadvantage was that my window seat was directly exposed to the sun, which made it quite warm. Nevertheless, the journey was relaxed. The train journey was on time and the route had beautiful views. Thanks to the stable wifi and the quietness in the compartment, I was able to work well. All in all, definitely recommendable.

The connection was really good, especially because I didn't have to change trains. I left on time and even arrived a few minutes early. Comfort was solid, but no luxury, at least there was enough space. No on-board bistro on the train, which was a shame as I was hungry. I found the price-performance ratio good, the ticket was significantly cheaper than petrol + parking. The noise level was pleasant, even when the train was full. Compared to the car, a clear advantage in terms of nerves.

The return journey from Berlin to Nuremberg by bike went well overall. The bike area was a bit more crowded than on the outward journey, but I still managed to find a space for my bike. The train was clean and comfortable, wifi didn't work all the time this time, but that was bearable. We were almost on time, just a slight delay at the end. The staff were friendly and helped us get off the train. Overall a pleasant journey, even if it wasn't quite as relaxed as the outward journey. I can recommend it!

Price in the Board Bistro

For our four-day city trip to Berlin, I travelled by ICE with two friends. We had booked the tickets in good time and got a really good deal. The train was also the quickest and most relaxed way for us to get from A to B. We got there in just over 3 hours, and what impressed me most on the way was how quiet and comfortable travelling on the ICE is and that you can really get around quickly. I worked up a bit of an appetite in between and treated myself to some sandwiches in the on-board service - not exactly a bargain, but perfectly tasty. We left at around 11.00 am and arrived in Berlin shortly after 2.00 pm. The seats were really comfortable. It was pleasantly quiet in the carriage and everything, including the toilets, was well maintained. I found the stable wifi and the sockets for charging mobile phones and other devices particularly practical and the train was super punctual. Both on departure and arrival made the whole thing even more relaxed. All in all, the journey was a good overall package, especially for the price of around €25.

I was completely satisfied with my train journey. The connection was ideal, direct, fast and without changing trains, perfect for my destination of visiting an old friend. I was particularly pleasantly surprised by the comfort, comfortable seats, plenty of space and a quiet atmosphere. Wifi worked reliably, which made it easier for me to work while travelling. The small on-board bistro was also a plus point; a hot coffee and a snack simply make the journey more pleasant. And best of all, everything was on time, from departure to arrival. This is my idea of a relaxed journey. I can only recommend it!

The train journey was satisfactory overall. The carriage was pleasantly clean and I found the seats comfortable. There was hardly any reason to criticise the punctuality either.

However, there was one drawback: there was no working power socket at my seat.

The journey from Berlin to Nuremberg was okay. The train was late and the connection was tight. It was quite noisy in the compartment and the air conditioning was set too cold. On the plus side, I still had a seat and the route was scenic. But okay for the price.

Advantages

Very pleasant ride with friendly staff

Disadvantages

Nothing to note

I really enjoyed the train ride from Berlin to Nuremberg. The train was not overcrowded and I felt very comfortable in my seat. The train was at a pleasant temperature and the staff were also exceptionally friendly and helpful. During my train journey, I also had a coffee in the Wort Bistro and was absolutely delighted with the wide selection of food and drinks. In addition, the train was very clean and the toilets were also well maintained. We arrived in Nuremberg on time and were informed of our arrival in good time. All in all, a really great train journey. Thumbs up in every respect.

The food was very tasty, there was a lot of choice of everything. The train looked very nice from the outside as well as from the inside. The volume on the train was very pleasant and I was surrounded by nice staff. The train also arrived on time and there was a lot of attention paid to hygiene and cleanliness.

Unfortunately, the train was 30 minutes late. Definitely recommendable with the Super Sparpreis.

Disadvantages

the train was late

There was one small negative thing I didn't like, and that was that the train was late, but I can still recommend it because everything else was right. The wifi was very good despite many users. I had a very comfortable seat, a table and sockets. It was very quiet on the train. The staff was nice and my food came very quickly, it was delicious. In general, there was only one small negative thing.

Disadvantages

Food

The train journey from Berlin to Nuremberg was quite good. We showed up at the platform at 6:42 am and the train location was already there, although it wasn't supposed to arrive for another 10 minutes. That's punctuality. The staff was super nice and in a good mood. The temperature on the train was very good, it was warm but not too warm. Please one downside point is the food in the cafeteria. It tastes like it is reheated. All together 4 stars.

Advantages

Very comfortable seats

Status table

Everything I noticed was positive, so I would like to mention that I am happy to pass on the trip. But there were things that I particularly liked, and that was that there was a table showing where I was at the moment and I also particularly liked that it was comfortable, very cosy. It was very clean on the train and the train looked very nice and modern. It was very quiet on the train. It was a great ride!

Advantages

pleasant volume

Disadvantages

Very minor wifi problems

I travelled in 2nd class and this was my outward journey. I actually liked everything, except for the small wifi problems, but that is no reason to rate the journey with 4 stars, as the disruptions were only very brief and I otherwise liked everything. It was very comfortable. My train arrived on time. It was very clean on the train and the train looked very modern. Deserved 5 stars and I recommend the trip to everyone. In addition, the noise level on the train was very pleasant.

Advantages

Clean toilet

Punctual

Disadvantages

Poor wifi

The journey was very pleasant. The price-performance ratio was very justified. All in all, I am very satisfied with the journey! The toilets were very clean and so was the train itself. It was also very quiet and pleasant. The seats were very comfortable. The sockets worked perfectly. The only negative point is that the wifi did not work well. The connection was constantly interrupted. Otherwise, I really enjoyed the journey

Advantages

Cleanliness

Good wifi

Punctuality

Good staff

This train journey deserves a five out of five star rating. There were plugs next to my seat, during which I was able to charge my mobile phone. The wifi was very good, although many people used it. The train journey itself was also very pleasant as the train didn't go too fast or too slow. The train was on time and arrived a few minutes before the regular time. The train was very clean. The staff did a good job. All in all, it was a wonderful journey that I can only recommend.

Advantages

Very clean

Disadvantages

Train was late

The seats were uncomfortable

Few sockets

High fares

My experience on the train journey from Berlin to Nuremberg was quite disappointing. I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness of the train. The compartments and toilets were in good condition, which tried to save the journey. Unfortunately, this was not successful. The service on board was not entirely satisfactory. The staff were polite, but didn't seem very committed. You always had to ask for something yourself first, as nothing was ever offered. The journey time was okay, although punctuality could be improved. My train was 7 minutes late. The comfort on the train was also mediocre. The seats were not particularly comfortable and there were not enough sockets for electronic devices. The price-performance ratio was therefore rather negative. The fares were quite high and the services offered did not justify the price. Overall, the journey was therefore unfortunately not so recommendable. The standards offered were simply not met. And that's why I wouldn't recommend the trip to others.

I travelled by ICE from Berlin Hbf to Nuremberg Hbf today. Unfortunately, the train was a little late. The seats are very comfortable and the wifi works great.

Exploring Nuremberg: A Journey Through History and Culture

Nuremberg Castle, a stunning medieval fortress dating back to the 11th century, stands as a testament to the city’s rich history and strategic importance in the Holy Roman Empire. Its impressive architecture features towering walls and intricate towers that offer breathtaking views of Nuremberg, making it not only a historical site but also an iconic symbol of resilience. As we explore its grounds, you’ll discover unique elements like the deep well and royal apartments that provide insight into life during medieval times.

St. Lorenz Church is one of Germany's finest examples of Gothic architecture, with construction beginning in 1250 and continuing for over two centuries; this magnificent structure showcases remarkable stained glass windows and intricately carved altars. The church holds significant cultural value as it has been central to Nuremberg's spiritual life for generations while serving as a backdrop for important events throughout history. Don’t miss the chance to admire its striking twin spires reaching towards the sky—an unforgettable sight that captures both beauty and devotion.

The Documentation Center Nazi Party Rally Grounds offers profound insights into one of history’s darkest chapters by examining how propaganda shaped public perception during Hitler’s regime in Nuremberg from 1933-1938. This thought-provoking museum is housed within what was once part of massive rally grounds designed by architect Albert Speer—a stark reminder of power misused—and invites visitors to reflect on themes such as manipulation, ideology, and responsibility today.
