It was a very cold day. While I was waiting for the train, I was cold. When I got on the train, it was warm inside because the heaters were on. I sat down and felt very happy and safe. The surroundings were clean. I ordered a tea, which arrived without waiting long. I drank my tea and fell asleep for a while. As it was quiet on the train, I was able to fall asleep. For all the reasons, I lovingly recommend my journey. On top of that, my train was on time.

The journey with the ICE 943 from Hanover to Berlin was simply super. I travelled second class, but this did not affect the comfort in any way.

The train was also extremely clean and well-maintained, which added to the positive feeling of comfort.

I really enjoyed the train ride from Hanover to Berlin. The train arrived right on time without me having to wait. When I boarded the train, I immediately got a comfortable seat. Next to the seat, there was also a power socket and wifi, so I could charge my mobile phone during the journey. The toilet was very clean and had a hygienic smell. The train staff were very friendly. Overall a very good journey

I travelled from Hanover to Berlin on ICE 943. I did not reserve a seat, but there were plenty of free seats. The train was well equipped, with wifi and power sockets as well as an on-board bistro. The service on board was good, the staff was friendly. It was a clean and well-maintained train, and the toilets were also clean. The train left Hanover with a slight delay and also arrived late in Berlin. This was not so nice.
Advantages

IconQuiet on the train
Icongood wifi
It was a rainy day, people got on quickly, I went inside and sat on the seat. My seat looked very clean and was comfortable. Then I ordered something, which arrived very quickly and fresh and was also good value. The surfaces also looked very clean, as did the train's windows and toilets. The internet was good. It was quiet on the train. My journey went very well, I can recommend it. The journey took about two hours.

I enjoyed the train ride very much as there was relaxed silence the whole way. The staff were very friendly and humorous. The seats were comfortable and really clean. The internet didn't always show full connection but that didn't take away from the enjoyment of the relaxed journey. I won't be driving this route again, but will take the train comfortably. Highly recommended.
Advantages
IconNot been late
IconQuiet and pleasant ride
IconFree choice of seats, even without reservation
Disadvantages
IconWifi did not work properly
So far, I have only had good experiences with Deutsche Bahn train journeys. Hardly any delays, and if any, then only a few minutes. Very reliable information from the staff and friendly service. I find the seats very comfortable and you can find a seat even without a reservation. Always clean and good air. I really enjoy travelling with Deutsche Bahn and have nothing to complain about except that the wifi didn't work properly. Otherwise, everything was great! Keep it up! Always a good journey!

Iconnoisy atmosphere
It had been very crowded on this trip. It was just as well I'd managed to get a seat. The volume on the train had been very loud and people were constantly pushing their way through and accidentally walking on my things. There was no ticket control on the train, but there were always connection announcements, so there were staff. The on-board bistro was open and the train was largely clean, as were the toilets, although these were often occupied. The train arrived at Berlin Hbf with a delay of 15 minutes.
Advantages
IconBeautiful train
IconGood wifi
IconHygiene
I definitely recommend this train ride. The train looked very nice inside and out. The staff were very attentive to hygiene. The staff were also very nice. The food was very tasty, there were also vegan and vegetarian dishes. The internet was very good, so I could do some things on the computer. The staff had done a good job. It was also very quiet on the train. The journey definitely deserved a 5 out of 5 star rating.

That was my return journey, which was good. I waited at the station and my train came on time. I got on and sat down and I noticed that the seats were very comfortable. Then I took a look at the menu and saw that they had a lot of choice of different dishes, which were also delicious. The staff treated me very nicely. It was very clean on the train and the same case in the toilets. This was a highly recommended trip.
