Berlin hotels near Brandenburger Tor

Pros: Location and helpfulness of consigiere services...landmark and historic hotel

Pros: It's truly a 5 star hotel, it makes your life better!

Cons: The Bar (itself) in the lobby couldev been fancier, the hotel has A gorgeous lobby but the Bar is just ok. Ritz Carlton has a nicer bar(americain)

Pros: Kayak provided me with an amazing deal to stay at the Adlon Hotel! The room was spectacular: clean with awesome features Like temperature control, super comfortable beds (the most comfy beds I've ever had in a hotel). Breakfast was included...a stunning breakfast buffet including luxury features like Caviar...as well as champagne, Asian fried rice...a lovely buffet!! Our stay at the Adlon was unforgettable and I'm already looking forward to returning there one day!

Cons: The Adlon hotel is a pricey hotel. Even the prices at the bar reflect that! Nevertheless an awesome place to stay if one likes luxury, cleanliness, and extreme friendly attentiveness from the staff!

Pros: Hotel was located well. Within steps of Brandenburg Gate, the US Embassy, French Embassy and Metro station. Five minute walk to the Reichstag. Hotel has an old world charm and elegance. Rooms are spacious and beautiful with dark wood accents. Staff was extremely helpful and pleasant, from the doorman to the concierge to the check-in receptionist.

Cons: Not much to dislike. This hotel is the go-to hotel for royalty (Queen of England) and the President of the US. It is priced accordingly, so be willing to splurge if you stay here.

Pros: Attention to detail. The daily brunch (included in my reservation) was spectacular - the food was not only plentiful but also delicious. On my birthday, I was served champagne with breakfast. Staff. Each staff member was courteous, helpful and most importantly, dedicated to service. If they did not know the answer, they would find it for you. Spa. After my conference I booked a day at the spa - the massage and facial therapists were professional, most capable, and pleasant to spend time with. Food. The onsite restaurants had expectional cuisine and the service was equally matched.

Cons: I was a guest at the hotel for 5 days/4 nights. My mini-bar was not restocked for 2 days. There were no washcloths (which Americans use); however I was able to obtain them from the spa. Each day you had to create a new WiFi password.

Pros: By far my favorite hotel experience ever. It was very luxurious, beautifully appointed, and the service was superb! We were welcomed by a very pleasant and courteous bellman, and every ancounter with staff thereafter was remarkable for its pleasant, service oriented tone. They are in a very deluxe hotel and they treated us, ordinary guests, as if they were delighted to have us! And the breakfast buffet was out of this world!! A terrific experience from start to finish.

Cons: The only thing I didn’t like was that I couldn’t stay forever. I am sad to say goodbye to the Adlon Kempinski.

Pros: Friendly service and great location.

Cons: Uncomfortable beds, especially for a 5 star hotel. Breakfast is very over priced and mediocre.

Pros: Location absolutely perfect, modern hip-vibe, excellent breakfast, friendly and attentive staff, very clean and comfortable. I thought the value was quite good for what we paid and what we got.

Cons: Street noise from Friedrichstrasse--if your windows are open (which we like). Wish the room service had provided new coffee capsules each day for the in-room coffee maker. A pool would have been nice but it wasn't necessary.

Pros: The room was thoughtfully designed and high quality. The air conditioning worked.

Cons: The free internet connection was slow, as is the norm these days. I would have liked to make a cup of tea or coffee in my room.

Pros: Everyone at this hotel was so very kind and helpful! One of the staff who helped us in from our check in was an amazing friendly face and he followed up when we were passing through the lobby. This was a great place to stay in Berlin! Thank you!

Pros: My adult son and I stayed at the Mercure for 5 nights in Berlin after a Christmas Market cruise on the Rhine. We stayed in one of the family suites which was 2 full bedrooms and separate baths and toilets so one person could shower while the other used the toilet. We had more than enough space and our own TV. Wireless was fast. Facilities were clean. Overall, the stay was good. The hotel is in an excellent location and a walkable distance to most of Berlin’s main attractions. Checkpoint Charlie and the Topography Museum of Terror within a few blocks as well as the popular Gendamarnmarkt. The street outside is quiet and there are many cafes and a small supermarket to get provisions nearby. Awesome affordable Italian restaurant called Valvoce down the street with fresh pasta. We ate there 3 times. Also close by is a restaurant called Lowenbrau with typical German food with fantastic schnitzel

Cons: The only downside to the hotel was the inconsistency with the efficiency of the staff. We arrived early for our check in and due to travel we were too tired to walk around so we decided to wait the 3 hrs. until check in time. There was no effort made at all to have our room ready before the official check in time, which is unusual for most hotels. When 3 pm came around the room was still not ready, they needed to contact housekeeping to see if it was clean. To make a long story short it took 30 minutes to figure out if the room was ready and even when we went to the room, housekeeping was still there cleaning. The following days I left a “do not disturb” sign on the door (I don’t like to tidy up when I am on vacation before housekeeping comes in) but housekeeping came in anyway. I called the front desk to let them know and requested no housekeeping while I was there and they still came in the following day. The third day my son arrived to the room earlier and they were there cleaning and HE told them not to clean and housecleaning called and spoke to me to confirm I didn’t need housekeeping and they finally got it. So if anything, my only negative is that they really need to work on communication.

Pros: Staff and the room.
