We stayed here for a few nights in June 2007. We needed a base in berlin for a few days as we were heading to dresden for a conference. This hotel is more like a glorified hostel. Room was big but bathroom was gross, room very plain and not like the pictures on hotels.com again another misleading representation. The breakfast was ok filled the spot but my boyfriend hated it so he went without. It was a very old fashioned hotel reminded me of something from a WWII movie. The lift nearly killed us the first day so we used the stairs even with our heavy suitcases as we were worried we'd be decapitated!! The location was great really central. If i was a student looking for somewhere to put down the head for the night fine. But this hotel is not for a romantic break with your significant other!! The staff were fine i have to say.

We were caught up in the volcano problem in Berlin and this awful hotel took advantage of us. We decided that we could not stay there and they refused to give us our money back. In the end they gave us 10 euros each so they made 360 euros for doing nothing. Don't go to this hotel - there are many other hotels in Berlin and this one is unbelievably bad. We lost so much money and didn't even use any of the dreadful facilities.

To start with it, I have never written a review online however after my stay at the Amaryl I felt compelled to warn any potential visitors.

I feel is difficult to classify this place as a Hotel its closer to being a Hostel but even that is being generous. On arrival you are greeted by what can only be described as a building site. The service as you arrive at reception is truely appauling. The breakfast is barely edible accompanied with warm orange juice.

If you are unfortunate enough to stay here I highly recommend you do not use the Lifts!

I would not recommend this 'Hotel' to anyone

Pro's - Good location.

Con's - Ant infested bedrooms, bathrooms and beds. Hostel not a hotel. Owner wouldn't understand 'Customer Care' in a million years. Fire doors wedged open with fire extinguishers. Warm orange juice.

Would I recommend? - Are You having a Laugh!
