Stay in this hotel from 27 - 31Oct.06.
Overall satisfactory. Near to the U-Bahn station at Adlershof (about 200m walk ). Easy to get to other parts of the city by public transport.
Shopping easy too. Next to this hotel is a shopping centre where we got our provisions at a very reasonable price.

Menu for breakfast = always the same during our stay.
House keeping = average.
Reception = good.

Having booked a 4* hotel in the central Tiergarten area of Berlin we were disappointed to receive an email a couple of days before departing saying that it was not available and that we could stay at the 3* "Am Camps" instead. We expected to be disappointed but in fact it could not have worked out better. It is a training hotel for the catering college students but we had excellent service throughout from the English speaking students and staff and the hotel itself is spotlessly clean and sparkling. We were allocated a disabled room (not by need, but about 10% of their rooms are disabled friendly) and it was huge with excellent facilities. The breakfast buffet was delicious too.

The location is very handy for Shonefeld airport. We took the S-bahn to Aldershof and it was only a few minutes walk from there - in fact you can see the hotel's lit up name as soon as you turn left out of the station (behind the huge red "Kaufhof" shopping centre lights) . However, the bus no. 62 would have been even better as we got on right outside the hotel to go back to the airport. During our stay we bought daily bus/train tickets and used the S-bahn to get into the centre of Berlin (about 30 minutes) and buses around the city. Overall the location was OK for us but some people might want somewhere more central or lively. We arrived about 10pm, the restaurant was closed and the receptionist said the only bar possibly open was at the Ibis across the road, otherwise the area was deserted. The next morning the shopping centre and various cafes were open and it was much more lively. We just made sure to eat before we left the city centre.

I stayed in this hotel in Aug 2006. I found the hotel very convenient for visiting the city. Near to the U-Bahn station at Adlershof. It was also very easy to get into the city on the public transport system. Easy to get to the airport ot Schonefeld too (only 3 stops away).

It is a brand new hotel that opened on 22.07.06. All the room facilities worked, and it was very clean, quiet and comfortable.

Breakfast was excellent. Great for people who want healthier options but you can also have a fry up, if you wish!

All in all I think this is a great hotel and will stay there again on my future visits to Berlin.

When we found this hotel we read the description and saw that it is a training hotel for students that are going into the hotelier trade. This made us a bit suspious but we went anyway.

The hotel is located in the outskirts of the former east berlin on S-bahn line S9 Adlershof stop and it is about 30 minutes by S-bahn to Friedrichstrasse. The room was very much business traveller style, the food and service was exemplary. It cost us £185 for two of us to stay five nights so I would throughly recommend the hotel.

If you do stay here make sure you go to the following.

Cocktail bar on Dorpfeldstrasse - fantastic mojitos, caprinhino's and long island iced teas - we both got legless for 30 euros total.
Communist freedon fighter memorial on Dorpfeldstrasse
Suzes cafe on adlergestell - good German food very well priced.
