Helpful for tourist information By one side - you're creating impression, that Stralsund is warmly welcoming all visitors city. But on the other hand looks, like the only tourists you're opened for are other Germans. We've stopped by in hotel for a day or two wanted just to visit all seeworthy attractions. First - problem with bus. Booklet (in German) from Oceaneum we've found at the reception desk have bus number, however for other details is pointing a bus company's website. The one is only in German and quite unfriendly to find any info not knowing your language. So, we went by car. By the way - where to buy a ticket? Is it possible to pay by card? We haven't seen any ticket machines in the city, no Trafika kiosks in vicinity of hotel... Car park despite looks modern - doesn't accept any payments by credit card. Which especially during Covid time is hard to understand, thus everybody knows that money is the most dirty and bacteria transmitting medium. Parking staff speaks only German, so no any help is possibile to obtain as well. In few museums similar - mostly descriptions in German. Very seldom can be found something in other (English) and if any - contains only few words. In restaurant we've visited - German-speaking staff cheeted us twice, so we left paying only for half. In fact - event not all, because as foriners - we don't have 'EC-girokarte', so we gave all cash we have, and leave. Theoreticaly we were able to buy a post mark for a postcard with greetings to our family we wantend to send, but vending machine (surprasingly having even Polish language) accepts only coins and EC (but even this during day-light only!). In port - all ships' schedules, infos and booklets are in German only and staff of course doesn't speak any other as well. I know, that all Covid countermeasures like (not)wearing masks or so-called 'desinfection' of tables in restaurats which exists only in theory - is beyond your control, but can be widely seen an it's also creating a bad view. My partner is working in city hall of Danzig. One of employment criteria is speaking at least one forign language, because Gdańsk in its policy is opened for tourists. City website is in 4 foreign languages plus one local ethnic. Information on bus stops and inside buses and trams are i 4 languages as well. Visiting Old Town you will hardly find any waiter not speaking English, and mostly they're speaking also German. And in every shop and restaurant you can pay with any card, including most of parking street machines and all in garrages. I know, that Gdansk is few times bigger than Stralsund, however above applies not only to Gdansk, but to many polish cities which are being visited by foreign tourists. Last time, we've spent our holidays in Germany almost 10 years ago, and I must truly say, that looks like time has stopped here. No any progress, no opening on foreign tourists, no change at all. Still the same, regardles of region, city size etc. It's strange, because your region is so close to Polen, and I don't believe that we're the only one Poles visiting you who haven't learnt German. Most of Poles, especially young ones speaks English, so we can manage with infos in this too. I'm not expecting of course, that you'll start learning Polish, however 'some' (means more!) written Polish infos would be very nice and giving good outcome. Right now, there is nothing but to check-out and move foreward leaving Stralsund behind. Maybe we come here in few years again..? Okay advices Wir hatten am Samstag, eine sehr schöne Altstadtführung durch Stralsund! Die Dauer betrug ca. 1,5 Stunden. So kamen wir auch in den Tapetensaal, gleich neben der Touristinformation! Wirklich sehenswert! Unser Stadtführer war humorvoll und hat auch einige Bilder von früher gezeigt, so dass man sehen konnte, wie es früher ausgesehen hat und was original ist! Die Informationen, waren interessant und man merkte garnicht, wie die Zeit verging! Wirklich top! Man kann die Führung auch online buchen und spart 0,50 €! Denn in der Touristinformation kostet das Ticket 10,50 €! Auch in der Touristinfo, sehr nettes Personal. Auch die Souvenirs waren preislich in Ordnung! Fazit: Sehr lohnenswerte Stadtführung! Top Nice staff and cheap souvenirs here, everything was ok. Top Meine Schwester und ich haben einen Kurztrip nach Stralsund gemacht und uns in diese Stadt verliebt. Die Altstadt, der Hafen, unsere Pension "Am Ozeaneum" - einfach traumhaft. Stadtrundfahrt mit der Darssbahn "Lustige Anna" , die Hafenrundfahrt und ein Besuch im Skurrileum (zum Piepen) ein wunderbares Erlebnis. Viele Cafes zum Verweilen, leckeres Essen zu guten Preisen und leckeres Störtebeker. Vielen Dank für die tolle Zeit. Es ist schon beeindruckend, wieviel die Stadt zu bieten hat.
