ExcellentOct 201910.0
We paid extra for breakfast since it wasn't included in the room rate, however, it worked out better because we were allowed to just pay for 2 breakfasts instead of 3 (we were staying 3 nights, but would miss the last breakfast due to an early flight). The breakfast is only like 15 euros or so and was excellent. German breakfast buffets really blows American continental out of the water. There is also a fitness center with a couple of treadmills and ellipticals, as well as free weights. The hotel itself is located smack dab right next to the Mendelssohn-Bartholdy Park station and like a 5 min walk from the Potsdamer Platz station. It's also a 5 minute walk to plenty of shopping centers like the Mall of Berlin. The hotel itself seems to be surrounded by apartments and maybe some businesses, and overall is very quiet at night. Check in staff was so friendly and helpful. There was a bowl of chocolates and the kissing swan towels to welcome my husband and I. Super cute.
There isn't a whole lot of counter space to put your stuff on, and the showers are a bit small. But the bathroom itself is a good size.

Scandic Berlin Potsdamer Platz looks new; actually a whole block between the Potsdamer Platz and the Landwehr Canal looks to have recently been redeveloped. It's a typical business hotel with the associated comfort. It's very conveniently positioned for anyone using the U-bahn - the station entrance is literally 10 m away from the covered hotel walkway. Nice breakfast. Quiet environment during weekend; might be otherwise on a workday.

It was a clean efficient and well located hotel. The breakfast was great and the bar on the 3rd floor perfect to rest the weary legs after a big day of marathon running! The walk to the start was easy and quick.
I would have liked to have had a bath to soak in after the run. I found it annoying to have to put a credit card guarantee at the front desk when ordering food from the bar

Spacious room (family room) with large bed. Friendly staff.
Said vegan friendly but this was limited. No vegan desserts, no change of vegan latte, pasta meal was £24 and was jut roasted veg pasta and tomato sauce, real rip off targeting marathon runners. No coat hooks in our room but other rooms did have these.
