“Worth every penny.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2012 via mobile

It is not a 4 star hotel. Rooms were old but on the bright side ok sized and clean. Great location and nice staff at the reception with warm and welcomming smiles:-) breakfast so-so. Transport within very easy access. Hard rock cafe on the opposite side of the hotel.
For lunch go to KaDeWe department store for their lovely food court:-)

“Great location,but definitely not a 4 star hotel!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2012

people found this review helpful

We've been there for six days and the location and everything was ok in my room; however, this was not the case with the other party's room, where hymidity was holding a party! Seemed like a former communist house turned into a youth hostel and not a 4 star hotel. There are two underground stations nearby, within walking distance, which is truly helpful but consider staying in another hotel if a renovation doesn't take place immediately! The banquet breakfast was fantastic and tasty (besides the tomatoes) and the personnel were helpful, friendly and smiling and gave you a sense of safety - a big plus - they even allowed us an earlier check in a later check out - which was greatly appreciated. They even kept an eye on our luggages on our departure day which was of a great help. Furthermore, they handed free copies of Berlin maps and overall they were quite polite. I mean everybody. The building, on the other hand, is quite old, with a steady smell of old carpets and quite a few stains on it as well! I would recommend the hotel for its location - especially if you are planning to be in the city most of the day, or if you travel alone but not suggested if you are planning a romantic getaway!

Room Tip: Lower floor rooms seem to have been renovated, but the price is higher

“Four Star location&breakfast, two star room standard”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 January 2012

person found this review helpful

This hotel is in a super convenient location with airport bus just outside and excellent bus, U-bahn and S-bahn connections within a minute or two from the hotel.

I believe the hotel is undergoing a much needed face-lift, if the standard of our room is anything to go by. Ancient, grotty wardrobe and tired old bathroom. Light years away from a 4-star standard. Other rooms we happened to catch a glance of seemed more modern.

No internet connection in the room, only wireless network available in the lobby for 5 Euro a day. Not impressed.

The breakfast however was sensational and the staff very friendly and helpful.

In short: Great location, excellent breakfast, friendly staff, disappointing room.

“ok”

This hotel at very good location, for a good price. You don't even need to walk and there's lots of shops, cafes, restaurants, transport etc. The room was fairly spacious for a solo traveller, well designed, and the bed particularly comfortable. My room was on the front of the hotel and I had a lovely view of the main street. The breakfast was a typical continental breakfast but was of good quality.
No air conditioning, very hot rooms. Unable to open windows due to traffic noise. Hotel neded a renovation.

“Fin base i Berlin”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 December 2011

Man aner fordums storhed i massive træpaneler og tapeter, men hotellet ser unægtelig lidt brugt ud. Til gengæld ligger det rigtigt godt på "Ku'damm" og der er masser af varmt vand i hanerne, sengene var fine, morgenmaden god og rigelig og personalet var, uden undtagelse, venligtsindede og hjælpsomme.
Var der i 4 dage i December, for at opleve juleudsmykning og -markeder. Hotellet fungerede som en fin base, med central beliggenhed.
