The train journey from Mannheim to Berlin was okay overall. The train was on time and comfortable, but unfortunately the price was not as good as I expected. There could have been a better price-performance ratio. The seats were comfortable and there was enough legroom. The compartment was clean and tidy, but there could have been a bit more storage space for luggage. The train was well equipped, with toilets and a sales area for snacks and drinks. Travelling by train is usually a good option if you want to save the environment and save time, but on this trip I felt I expected more for the price. Overall, it was a pleasant journey, but I think I will consider a different travel option next time if I need better value for money.
Pros
Iconvery polite staff
My train arrived on time and I also arrived on time. I was very happy with the wifi. The heaters were on because it was very cold outside, but it was hot inside. The train looked very nice from the inside as well as from the outside. My coffee cappuccino was very tasty and very cheap for its performance. The staff were very polite and especially nice to the children. I was always informed where I was at the moment, which I thought was great. The train arrived on time and my train ticket was not expensive. Since everything was positive, I'll pass on the trip. Great trip!
Pros
Iconthe observance of hygiene
My train arrived on time. The staff tried to fulfil the passengers' wishes. I especially liked the fact that I was always informed about where I was at the moment. I really liked the fact that it wasn't just me who liked the journey, but that everyone I spoke to was happy with the journey. You could also book something in advance via the app, which was great. The ride was also relatively cheap. I can gladly recommend the ride to others, as it was also very easy to fall asleep. Great ride!
Pros
Iconkind staff
I travelled in 1st class. My ticket was neither expensive nor cheap, but it was definitely worth it for the service and that is the reason why I can recommend the trip. What I liked most was that the staff were very nice and also performed well and especially that when it came to service. The toilets were also very clean. I was able to charge my phone at my seat as there were several power outlets and also my seat was very comfortable. The ride gets 5 stars.
Pros
IconGood travel comfort
IconWifi was okay
IconGood hygiene
IconNice staff
Cons
IconTrain delay
On this trip, too, DB lived up to its reputation of being late most of the time. However, this was not a big deal, as the rest of the train journey was very pleasant. My seat was equipped with a power socket and there was also wifi. It wasn't very transmitting, but it was sufficient. The seat was very comfortable and as I was wearing headphones, I didn't notice the noise. The service was nice and I had no problems with the reservation. In addition, my seat was clean and I felt comfortable. The price-performance ratio was acceptable for this long distance.
Pros
IconHeaters
My journey in 1st class was great. It was very quiet on the train and the atmosphere was great. The journey didn't feel that long, even though it took 5 hours, as I felt very comfortable because the staff had taken care of the passengers the whole time. The services were also great as my food was delicious and delivered quickly. I also particularly liked the wifi. What I found great was that I was always informed about where I was. I can recommend the trip to anyone. In addition, my train arrived on time and my ticket was cheap. I would also like to mention that the toilets were clean.
Pros
IconHeaters were on
The outward journey from Mannheim to Berlin was in 1st class. My ticket was very cheap. It was very clean on the train and the toilets were also very clean. It was very quiet and comfortable on the train. The wifi was very good and my train arrived on time. Moreover, my croissant tasted very good and so did my tea. What I really liked was that we were always informed about where we were. I am happy to recommend the trip to others, as my train also arrived on time. Great trip, deserved 5 stars.
Pros
IconRest
I had good wifi and a power socket at my seat. The seats were very comfortable and the train was quiet. If you needed food, you could get it. The staff were very nice. There was a lot of choice when it came to food. The toilets were very clean and a lot of attention was paid to hygiene. My train also arrived on time. I can only recommend the trip, as my ticket was also relatively cheap. It was also a great trip in 1st class.
Pros
IconPlenty of room for luggage.
I really enjoyed the train ride because there was a lot of space and I could relax a lot. The staff paid a lot of attention to hygiene. The staff were also very nice. The wifi was also very good and helped me with my work. The staff paid a lot of attention to the older ones, which touched me. There was also a cool design in the toilets. My ticket was relatively cheap and that's why I can definitely recommend it. It deserves five out of five stars, because the volume on the train was also very pleasant and I had multiple access to electricity at my seat, or the train arrived on time. I would also like to say that the journey was my outward journey.
Pros
IconNice staff
IconFaster than by car
Cons
IconChange in Fulda
My train journey from Mannheim to Berlin was a quick and clean ride. The train goes directly from Mannheim main station via Fulda, where unfortunately you still have to get on, to Berlin. The journey took about 4.5 hours. During the journey you could enjoy the landscape very nicely and in the on-board restaurant I had a croissant, a soup and a coffee. The staff were relatively nice. The wifi was also very good and I had power plugs at my seat to charge my mobile phone.
Pros
IconCleanliness
Cons
IconPunctuality
On my journey from Mannheim in Baden-Württemberg to Berlin, I travelled on the Deutsche Bahn ICE train for around 6 hours and 30 minutes as a direct connection with a slight delay. The wifi connection was good, so I was able to spend the time working and watching videos. The toilets were reasonably clean and the train staff were friendly and cheerful. Overall, I was very satisfied with the train journey.
