Advantages
ComfortableDisadvantages
Sometimes too lateThe train is usually on time and the seats are very comfortable. It was very hygienic and the toilets were clean. The journey was very relaxing. The 1st class looks mega relaxing but is a bit expensive. The duration of the journey was also good and it fits very well if you want to sleep.
Advantages
PriceComfortableStaffHygieneFoodPunctualityDisadvantages
ToiletsI can only recommend this train journey. I had a very pleasant journey. The train was not delayed and arrived at the promised time at the destination. The seats and tables were very clean, where I could eat my hot meal, which was very tasty. The staff were also very pleasant and friendly, as were the other passengers who travelled with me. The only thing I have to complain about is that two toilets in my carriage were locked during the whole train journey, otherwise it was very pleasant. The price was also very good.
Advantages
Good price-performance ratioDisadvantages
WCs were not particularly cleanThe train journey from Bremen to Berlin was relatively pleasant. The changeover went smoothly. I had wifi and the seats were comfortable. The staff were very friendly. It was relatively quiet on the train. The toilets were unfortunately not very clean, but it worked. The price-performance ratio is okay.
Advantages
On timeDisadvantages
PriceThe train ride was fantastic. I had good wifi, a power outlet, the seats were comfortable and the volume was pleasant. Food was provided and the food was delicious. The staff were very, very friendly and I had the reservation. I got information before departure and the toilets were very clean. I didn't have to change trains and the train was on time. The price-quality ratio was OK, but it was already too expensive for me.
Advantages
CleanlinessConvenienceGot on the train and it was very fresh air I sat happily in my seat then I was hungry and ordered a burger and it came. Shortly after I ate my burger and it was very fresh and tasty then I went to the toilet and it looked very hygienic every seat was very clean. I am very happy to recommend the ride as I also enjoyed some of the ride and punctuality was also there. Besides, this was my return trip.
Advantages
Service/PriceDisadvantages
ServiceLast year I took a trip with DB from Bremen to Berlin because of my work. I have to say that I was really excited because of the price. It only cost €30. The facilities with wifi or sockets were really very well set up on the train. My mobile phone and laptop could connect to the high - speed internet immediately. The volume on the train was very pleasant. The seats were very comfortable and clean. However, the service was not that great as they were very unfriendly. The toilets were very clean. Moreover, the train even arrived in Berlin on time. Overall, quite a good trip. I would definitely recommend it.
Advantages
good wifikind staffI enjoyed this trip very much and everything stood out to me. First of all, I would like to mention that fortunately I did not have to change trains. Then I would like to write something about punctuality, because my train arrived on time. The internet was great, I had no problems with it at all. The staff were very friendly, nice and humorous. I felt comfortable using the toilets. Moreover, it was at a great price. I can only recommend the trip for all the reasons.
Advantages
PunctualityMy train arrived on time and I had several changes and all trains were on time. I was always informed where I was at the moment. The train was very clean and the toilets were usable. The wifi was very good. It was very quiet on the train, so the atmosphere was great. The staff were entertaining and very friendly. The seats were very comfortable and nothing was missing. There were also lockers. As there is nothing wrong with it, I am happy to recommend the trip and what is also very worth mentioning is the price, as it was very reasonable.
Advantages
QuickWIFISocketOn timeCosyDisadvantages
PriceThe journey by train from Bremen to Berlin was satisfactory overall, although the price was not that cheap. The trains were on time and comfortably equipped, with enough space for luggage and legroom. This journey was quiet and there were no major delays. However, the price of the journey was higher compared to other modes of transport, which is a clear minus. Overall, it can be said that the train journey from Bremen to Berlin is pleasant but not the cheapest option due to the price.
Advantages
Punctuality of all trainsThat was my return journey and it was relatively cheap. There were many changes, but they all arrived on time. I also really liked the wifi. The seats were very comfortable and it was quiet on the train. The staff were very nice. There were many toilets and the toilets were clean. Everything was just right about this trip, so I can recommend it to others.
Advantages
Good hygieneGood serviceThe modern equipmentDisadvantages
UnpunctualityToo expensiveLong waiting timeThe train journey from Berlin to Bremen was okay. The wifi was really good, was able to get my work done and answer a few emails. The service was friendly and the seats were quite comfortable, which made the long journey more enjoyable. However, the seat could have been cleaner. The toilets, on the other hand, were surprisingly clean. The value for money was disappointing, especially considering the delay which made the already long journey even longer. Overall, it was an average experience, which had many bad aspects.
Advantages
The legroom was niceNice staffVery cleanDisadvantages
High costs for the ticketThe duration of the journeyPoor facilities: There was wifi but no power socketMy unique train journey from Bremen to Berlin was a mixture of positive and challenging experiences. The cleanliness of the train and the generous legroom made the journey extremely pleasant. The train staff provided a friendly and courteous service, which had a positive impact on the overall experience.
However, there are some shortcomings in terms of equipment. The lack of a power socket at my seat proved to be impractical, especially for travellers wishing to charge their devices. Improved facilities with power sockets at each seat could solve this problem. I found the journey time to be a little long, which made the journey less time-efficient.
Another critical point was the comparatively high cost of the train ticket. Compared to other modes of transport, the prices seemed relatively high to me, which affected the overall price-performance ratio.
Despite these limitations, I was able to enjoy the journey for the most part thanks to the cleanliness, generous legroom and friendly service. However, improved facilities, especially the availability of power sockets, as well as considerations to optimise the journey time could make the train journey from Bremen to Berlin even more comfortable and thus encourage me to use this journey to visit my uncle again.
Advantages
Nice staffVery cleanGood comfortPleasant journey durationModern equipmentDisadvantages
Expensive ticketExpensive mealsMy experience on the return journey from Bremen to Berlin was again largely positive. The cleanliness of the train was consistently maintained and the sanitary facilities were also well looked after. The train's interior once again made a contemporary impression and this time even the legroom in the seats was improved.
The train staff continued to be friendly and the service on board was more efficient this time, without the minor delays of the outward journey. The selection in the on-board catering was again appealing, although the prices were unfortunately still too high.
The comfort on the return journey was pleasant throughout, with comfortable seats and plenty of legroom. The journey time was again acceptable. Nevertheless, the price-performance ratio remains a critical point, as the ticket costs are always far too high. All in all, however, the return journey was noticeably improved and offered a more positive train journey overall. However, the ticket price needs to be reduced.
Advantages
Punctual and reliableDisadvantages
Everything went normallyThe train journey was very satisfactory overall. I was impressed by the punctuality, the train arrived exactly at the scheduled departure time. The fare was reasonable and the price-performance ratio was right. The cleanliness of the train and the sanitary facilities was impeccable, which contributed to a pleasant travelling experience. The wifi worked reliably, which is a particular advantage for business travellers. The toilets were always clean and well maintained. The seating comfort was pleasant and I was able to relax and enjoy the journey. Overall, a recommended train service for travellers who value punctuality, cleanliness and comfort.
