Pros

Comfortable seats

Nice train staff

Clean toilet

Cons

10min delay

Loud guests

Very crowded

Wifi was very good. Delay was not so bad, I reached my connecting train. The ticket inspector was very nice and understandable. I travelled in the €9 ticket period, so the train was very crowded, but nowadays that should be better. All in all, a very pleasant journey.

Pros

Good price

Cons

Dirty toilets

I travelled by Deustchen Bahn from Nuremberg to Berlin more than a year ago and I have to say that the journey was quite pleasant and comfortable and the price was also good, but there were a few things that stood out negatively. The positive comments were that there was wifi, the train was very punctual and the staff were friendly and helpful. For being 2nd class, the seats were very comfortable, so you could sit on them for a long time without any discomfort. And the negative comments were that the food was a bit expensive and the toilets lacked hygiene. What was also good was that the seat reservation was very easy. The thing I liked most was the value for money. Overall, I can say that the trip was very good and I would recommend it.

Pros

good wifi

kind staff

What I really liked was the food, as there were many desserts, dishes and drinks. I had a lot of space for myself and my luggage. I also liked the speed of the train, as it was not too fast. The best thing was the good wifi and the nice staff. This trip was great, so I give it a recommendation.

Pros

Equipment

Cons

Travel

I recently took the ICE from Nuremberg to Berlin. The facilities on the train were great! Wifi worked, there were power sockets and the hygienic condition was very good. The staff were also very friendly. Unfortunately, the journey itself was a bit complicated because we had to deal with a lot of delays.

Pros

cheap train ticket

kind staff

This was my return journey in second class and I really enjoyed it. My train arrived on time and I didn't notice anything negative. The prices on the menu were reasonable and the food was delicious. The wifi was good and the seats were comfortable. I can happily pass on the ride. Also, it was very clean. In addition, the staff was very nice and did a good job.

Pros

Price

Cons

wifi

Unfortunately, the wifi was not very good on this train journey. Apart from that, I had only positive experiences. The staff is very friendly and helpful and the food is very good. I was also satisfied with the cleanliness. Not too expensive.

Pros

Comfort

Price

Cons

Delay

I had to travel from Nuremberg main station to Berlin main station a few months ago to pick up something... I could have gone by car, but I found it much more comfortable by train... The ICE was very clean (even the toilets) and everything was hygienic. The train staff were also very friendly and everything worked very well. However, we had to contend with a delay of about an hour due to thunderstorms... But the DB app helped when looking for connecting buses.

Pros

good internet

kind staff

That was my return trip and since I liked it very much, it gets 5 stars. I can also recommend it to others. I really liked the wifi as it had full bars throughout. The staff were very nice. I also really liked my meal and my drink. My train was also on time. Cleanliness was paramount, so it was really very clean. For all the positive reasons, I can only pass on the ride. Great ride!

Pros

the observance of hygiene

Very good internet

I liked the wifi best, as it had full bars throughout and I had no problem downloading anything. There was also a lot of attention paid to hygiene, for example with disinfectant. The toilets were very clean and there were many. The staff were very nice and also very friendly. I liked my coffee very much. My train also arrived on time. I really enjoyed this trip, which is why it gets 5 stars and of course I can recommend it to others. Moreover, this was my return journey.

Pros

kind staff

a lot of room

That was my return journey and it was really great. I loved that I was very comfortable and had a lot of space. Also, the staff were very humorous and entertaining. You had many options to order something and I really liked the red button, because you had to press a red button and then a staff member came. The train also looked very nice. I didn't notice anything negative, so I recommend the trip. My ticket was also cheap and I would also like to mention the punctuality of the train.

Pros

Clean toilet

Pleasant journey

Cons

Train did not open the doors at first

The journey from Nuremberg to Berlin was very pleasant. The seats were very comfortable. The noise level was very low and it was pleasantly warm. The power socket worked at my seat. The wifi also worked, but it was very poor and kept disconnecting from my mobile phone. The train arrived on time. However, the doors did not open. So I had to wait for a later train. Therefore only 2 stars.

Pros

Very clean

Good comfort

Courteous staff

Cons

Poor service attention

Train delay

Expensive ticket

My experience on the return journey from Nuremberg to Berlin was again characterised by both positive and challenging moments. The cleanliness of the train again deserves praise, the compartments were well maintained and the toilets were well looked after. There were noticeable improvements in terms of comfort. The seats were more comfortable and there were more power sockets, which made the journey much more pleasant. The journey time was acceptable, but there were again punctuality issues that affected the schedule. The price-performance ratio was slightly better than on the outward journey, but still not ideal. The prices were high and some points could still be improved. Unfortunately, the service on the return journey fell short of expectations. The staff were polite, but again lacked attention for the passengers. In summary, the return journey from Nuremberg to Berlin was overall improved, but there is still room for optimisation, especially in terms of service quality, punctuality and pricing. This time, however, I will at least recommend the journey with attention to these points.

Pros

Seats

Peace and quiet

Cons

Delay

I travelled on this ICE today. It wasn't quite on time, but that wasn't a problem for me. The train staff were very polite. The seats are very comfortable and the volume in first class is very reasonable. I am very satisfied and can recommend it to anyone.
