About Hotel Nige Hus
Hotel Nige Hus and Restaurant Zum Anker - Family Hospitality
The Griebel family has a long history on Neuwerk and has been deeply rooted on the island for generations. The Hotel Nige Hus is a project close to the heart of the family, which they run with great attention to detail and a sustainable approach. In addition to the unique location and the special atmosphere, the guests of the Nige Hus appreciate above all the warm hospitality of the Griebel family and their team. Whether at the cozy breakfast in the winter garden of the hotel or at the social gathering at the bar of the Anker – here you feel immediately welcome and at home.
The Griebel family has lived on Neuwerk since the 18th century and the Anker was opened in 1974. In the meantime, the restaurant has become an integral part of island life and it is hard to imagine life without it. Lüder and Anneliese Griebel had their hands full coping with the first difficult years and can now look proudly at what the former Anker has become.
During the winter months, when all the businesses on Neuwerk are closed, renovations, additions and conversions have been and continue to be carried out. This should answer one or two questions about what the islanders do in winter… But despite all the modernizations, the unique charm and history of the house have always been preserved. The second generation, Christian Griebel and his wife Svenja, came to the island in 1997 to join their parents’ business.
There was not enough space for three generations, so two guest rooms and two group rooms became the Nige Hus with double rooms, suites and an apartment for the young family with their two children. Together they managed the restaurant and the hotel and realized many new projects. From the idea to offer the guests something special and unique, Christian Griebel developed and built the Tüdelüt and a little later the Wattoase was added. He has been the owner since 2012, but can still count on the active support of his parents.
Christian Griebel is not only the owner of the Hotel Nige Hus, but also the island chairman of Neuwerk. Together with his wife Svenja and his family, he is committed to ensuring that Neuwerk remains a unique place worth living in in the future. This is also reflected in the philosophy of the family business. For example, regional products are preferred and energy is supplied by renewable energies. The rooms were also designed sustainably and furnished with ecological materials.
The Griebel family and the entire team of Hotel Nige Hus look forward to welcoming you to the island soon!

A lovely restaurant with a beautiful terrace and a diverse menu. Vegetarians will also find plenty of options here.
We visited the restaurant after our mudflat hike. The food was absolutely delicious, the service friendly, and the location very cozy. We had a mixed salad with fried cream cheese potato dumplings, as well as the "Matjes Platter" with three kinds of matjes herring: - Sherry Matjes - marinated in beetroot juice and sherry - Matjes herring, housewife style - with an apple and onion sauce - Herring bites - in a curry marinade with fried potatoes. Highly recommended.
Hochzeit auf Neuwerk

We enjoyed a wonderful dinner on the terrace. The service was very friendly and professional – including wine recommendations! And we were thoroughly satisfied. It was lovely!
Very friendly staff and a nice terrace at the restaurant.
A fantastic hotel with extremely friendly staff. Prices are perfectly reasonable.
We had a wonderful weekend here with the whole family – a truly beautiful experience that we will remember for a long time! We received a warm welcome upon arrival – the entire team is incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful. You immediately feel the warm, family atmosphere that makes this house so special. Our rooms were simply adorable, impeccably maintained, and furnished with great attention to detail. The beds were wonderfully comfortable – perfect for relaxing on the island. Our child could watch the horses from the window. Besides the return trip by horse-drawn carriage and the proximity to the dike, breakfast was a real highlight: varied, fresh, and with many delicious treats – it's the perfect way to start the day. We were particularly impressed by the child-friendliness and the team's patient manner. A culinary highlight was definitely the fried potatoes and remoulade – honestly, it couldn't have been better! Many thanks to the entire team for this fantastic weekend. We lacked for nothing. We will definitely be back!
Restaurant Zum Anker - Empfehlenswert
An das Hotel Nige Hus ist das Restaurant „Zum Anker“ angegliedert.nWir waren im Rahmen eines Tagesausfluges vor Ort. Man kann sehr nett draußen sitzen - wahlweise überdacht mit Sonnenschirmen oder auch auf einer kleinen Sonnenterasse. Das Servicepersonal ist super freundlich und hilfsbereit. nDie Speisekarte ist überschaubar und fein. Nachfragen bzgl. Allergien sind gar kein Problem, einfach melden und die Küche nimmt darauf Rücksicht. nInsgesamt ein sehr positiver Eindruck, hier kommen wir gerne wieder.
Alles ok
Nettes Restaurant mit wohlfühlfaktor. Sehr zu empfehlen . Auch das angeschlossene Hotel ist modern und sauber. Angstellte sind freundlich und zuvorkommend . Der Heimatabend ist immer ein Highlight !!!
Gluten intolerance was taken into account when selecting the dishes. Friendly service. Pleasant and relaxed atmosphere. Professionally managed.
