Had to stay further out than usual due to trade fairs in Berlin.
This hotel is about half an hour from Friedrichstrasse station and is right next to the rail line from Berlin to Oranienburg (no train noise though). Distance from the centre was compensated by the lower price I paid.
Pleasant, large rooms with all expected facilities. Good range of food for breakfast. Staff are friendly, but some have limited English. Hotel has a small bar which closes about 12. Reception is open for arrival until after midnight.
I would stay here again, if I could not find a hotel at the same price nearer to the centre.
