Just returned from Berlin after spending the New Years Eve weekend in the City - a great couple of days away with friends.
The hotel was an excellent choice. Really well located, just a few minutes walk to the bars and restaurants in hackescher markt, and a 20 minute stroll to Brandenberg Gate. Close to all the attractions but tucked away from the noise of a bustling city.
The room was very comfortable, if a bit on the small side although I think this was the luck of the draw as the friends we went with got quite a spacious room. The shower was brilliant, the room clean and the beds very comfortable.
Staff were helpful without being intrusive. We were allowed to extend our check out time on the last day as we had a late flight at no extra charge.
We had room service breakfast on the last day and that was of excellent quality - a great selection of pastries, cooked breakfast, juices, fruits, cold cuts and cheeses with very generous portions.
The only negatives really was that the room was oppressively hot. We had to open all the windows to get a decent nights sleep and this was in late December! The weather outside was unseasonably mild yet the heating was turned up so high, you would think that we were experiencing sub zero temperatures.
We also paid a premium rate due to the time of year and felt that it was a little over priced.
All in all however, I would highly recommend this hotel for its location, comfort, food and staff. We had a great time.
