“An excellent experience. Highly recommended.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 March 2011

I ordered over the Internet and I was afraid to be disappointed, but instead I found an intimate hotel, with a pleasant and efficient staff. The receptionists are very familiar with tourist spots in Berlin.
The location of the hotel is not right in the center but the important destinations are a drive of about 20 minutes tram. From the other hand side, we got to enjoy the green parks around the hotel, and most importantly some good/quiet sleep. Perfect choise for vacationers and business men in Berlin. Highly recommend.

“great value but a little far out”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 October 2010
1
person found this review helpful

The hotel is excellent value for money, the staff were friendly and helpful.
The rooms were clean and pretty nice, decent décor and good sized bathroom.
The hotel is a little far out, about 20 mins on the tram, wasn't too much trouble as the trams are regular and the stop is only a minute away from the hotel.
I would recommend this hotel and stay here again, however if i had a bigger budget would consider somewhere nearer.

“Good Clean Hotel But FAR”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 September 2010

I stayed at this hotel over a new years. The hotel is clean, but pretty far from city center. Although it's not such an inconvenient location because Berlin has trams, buses, trains (really fast and efficient public transportation). The hotel didn't provide much other than a clean bed and some heat from the cold weather. It provided breakfast for an extra fee, but we opted to eat elsewhere. I don't believe they had wi-fi. In the area of the hotel, there are some shops, supermarkets, etc. I would probably recommend a friend or family member who was visiting Berlin to check out a hotel closer to city center. Although, if they were securing a fabulously low rate for this hotel I would recommend it.

Overall, it's clean and a place to sleep. What more do you need? If you were looking to shack up in your room all day and night, I supposed you wouldn't be in Berlin but in a resort!

“Do not ever stay at this hotel!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 July 2010

I booked my trip a month ago and today, I emailed the hotel, as usual, to get the directions from the airport to hotel and for surprise, they are fully booked and transfered me to another hotel, where I should have a double room. I called the new hotel and instead of a double room, I have a single room. I am not very happy with that and for sure I do not recommend this hotel.

Dear Guest,

I am really sorry for the inconvenience and I can understand your anger (I have also had to move hotels a few times in my life, due to similar circumstances). Unfortunately, a situation of overbooking can happen due to several reasons which cannot always be predicted by the hotels e.g. water damage in which a few rooms would than be blocked for use.

Furthermore, it is also not in the hotel's interest to become overbooked, since the hotel has then to carry extra costs, time waste and above all have unsatisfied guests.

I hope you will accept my apology.

I wish you all the best

“Very bad, opgelicht door het baliepersoneel”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 August 2009

person found this review helpful

At first instance, an acceptable hotel, in a not very busy part of the town.
Not very close to the centre.
Not very clean in the chambers, stayed for 5 nights

Unfortunately i got conned by the hotel staff, I paid in cash but due to "circumstances" they where not able to print a receipt.
Not to big of a problem you would think.
BUT,.....

4 weeks later my creditcard gets allso charged for the total amount , because supposedly i left without paying !!
Hotel management very uncooperative and unfriendly
Very bad experience.

In Berlin there are plenty hotels, cheaper, cleaner, and closer the the centre

with dismay that we read your opinion about our hotel. We are very sad that you have become so angry about our house. Please understand that we need to go at a financial loss caused to the bottom. The fact that these searches were unpleasant for you, we are very sorry. You´ve got your money back from us 100%, although the matter has not yet been fully clarified.
