IntercityHotel Berlin Airport BER Terminal 1+2

8/10 Good

"Staff not very proficient in English however they tried their best. Spent quite some time to discover how to use soap dispenser. They give a hair shampoo and conditioner together. I wasn't able to untangle my hair at all!"

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is very well situated near to the centre of alexanderplatz, where there is easy access to all modes of public transport, and shops and restaurants. The hotel itself feels very smart and well kept and the staff were particularly friendly and helpful. Great stuff!"

Steigenberger Hotel Am Kanzleramt

Hampton By Hilton Berlin City Centre Alexanderplatz

10/10 Excellent

"Great location close to the Tram and metro. Wonderful staff and breakfast. Rooms are little smaller than expected but we were out all day ak hardly spent anytime in the room."

Dorint Hotel Potsdam

10/10 Excellent

"The location is in easy walking distance to all the beautiful sites in Potsdam. Modern and flooded with natural light, the hotel has many areas for gathering or quiet reading. The hotel has a relaxing pool area, nice indoor and patio bar and a wonderful buffet breakfast. The rooms have comfortable bedding and air conditioning (which was a relief during warm days this August). I highly recommend the hotel!"

Scandic Berlin Potsdamer Platz

"Hotel is in a very good location easy walking distance from train station. Some very good cafes restaurants & bars close by. Superior room had free bar. Very comfortable bed . Room cleaned daily. Hotel bar has balcony & staff were great. I would recommend this hotel goid value."

The Dean Berlin

10/10 Excellent

"The Hotel The hotel is set in a lovely spot — quiet and peaceful, yet with plenty of restaurants close by and the main tourist spots within easy reach. The Room This hotel has thought about the basics of sleep in a way many hotels simply don't. The bed is the most comfortable I've ever slept in, and the pillows — wow — they're amazing. What a lot of hotels get wrong is the air con, but here it's whisper-quiet — no tapping, banging, or buzzing in sight, which makes for a genuinely cool night's sleep. The blackout curtains cross over each other (genius — it's the small things that matter), and even the door to the stairwell cuts out the noise from downstairs. All those little details add up to a 100% perfect night's sleep. I'll miss that. The Bathroom That shower — OMG. It's one powerful shower, an absolute dream after a long day of walking. Could do with a touch more room if I'm being picky, but I loved it. One small note: the fridge isn't really a fridge — more of a box with lights and no function whatsoever. When the hotel did get something wrong, they put it right, and I'm grateful for that. The bakery is a beauty — the almond croissant is an absolute must. The Staff Friendly, kind, always with a smile — this is what makes a hotel, and they got it right every single day."
