We were 5 in a hotel suite for a really reasonable price only 5min from U-Bahn. The hotel room was clean, spacious and we had also a terrace outside that we found out only after 1 day. It has a kitchen, but with no pans or anything. Around the hotel are a lot of good and not expensive restaurants and bars, and expensive Prada and Rolex shops. Money well spent for this housing.

We arrived at Pension Kima around 9pm, took the charming, yet tiny elevator to the reception floor and were kindly greeted. Check in was quick and minimal. The man at the reception (forgot his name, but he was super friendly and very cute!) gave us some tips for where we could grab late night dinner in the area. The room was very clean and spacious for the price (I believe around 70 euros). Beds were comfortable. Breakfast in the morning was varied and delicious- breads, meats, cheeses, juices, tomatoes, pickles! Check out was just as easy as check in. Highly recommend- was so pleasantly surprised by our treatment at Pension Kima! Oh, and it is in such a wonderful location- shops and shopping mile right outside your door!

The Hotel Kima is located in a very nice section of West Berlin. For instance Louis Vuitton is less than a block away. However, and more important than Louis Vuitton, is that you can conveniently catch the bus or the train and quickly be anywhere in Berlin. If you walk a block or two west on Kurfurstendamm there is a bus stop that includes a ticket machine so you can purchase your ticket before getting on the bus. Also, the Savignyplatz S-bahn is only a 10 minute walk.

The hotel itself was only average, but the rooms were clean and comfortable. We also found the hotel staff to be friendly and helpful. On our way out of the hotel our first morning in Berlin we stopped by reception to ask a few questions and the person working that morning was great.

Large room, very clean, basic German breakfast, but great location, just off the Ku'dam. Easy bus connection to Tegel airport. Best part was the price.
