Berlin hotels near Brandenburger Tor

Pros: The location and the politeness,efficient help of the staff.

Cons: The quality of the breakfast,especially for fruits has to be better.

Pros: The beds were very cozy and comfortable

Cons: The Housekeeping were so annoying and never respected the DND sign they keep calling and asking when they can clean also they weren’t very clean and left the used spoons and cutlery for the full stay never change it or even never changed the rotten fruits in the basket.

Pros: The hotel location, cleanliness, and rooms size.

Cons: The allocated room was overlooking nothing but other rooms.

Pros: Everything really

Cons: Nothing at all

Pros: - super friendly staff at check in & room upgrade - fast free WiFi - great location next to park

Pros: This is an excellent hotel. Very well appointed and spacious rooms, very convenient location, friendly staff and wide variety of food at breakfast service. The bedding was very high quality, we had restful sleep every night. The bar downstairs makes innovative, perfume themed cocktails. All round a very nice experience.

Cons: Nothing comes to mind.

Pros: From the moment I arrived I was greeted warmly and treated like a valued guest. The service in all areas of the hotel was the best I have experienced at any hotel. The rooms are beautifully updated with very well appointed bathrooms. Entertained clients on three occasions at the Curtain Club. Could not have asked for better service. Nicholas in the Curtain Club should be commended for a job well done. This will certainly be my go to hotel in Berlin for future stays.

Cons: Not a thing.

Pros: The location The venue The rooms

Cons: Room service was not the standards of 5 stat hotel The concierge was not very friendly

Pros: Beautiful interior and quite room.

Cons: I expected too much from Ritz, I guess. First of all, I cannot control the lights with buttons next to bed, malfunction, so every time I need to turn on or off, I walked all the way to the front door. Secondly, they didn't place hair dryer. I really don't need it so I didn't call the reception. Maybe it's 'well' hidden? For me it was painful hide&seek and decided not to use it - anyway it was not that important for me. (I told the reception about it when I checked out for other customers.) Thirdly, then I used the tea lounge for light snack during the day time, yet the lady is friendly but very unprofessional especially for this 5 star hotel tea lounge. I ordered coffee, cake and juice. They forgot the coffee and brought cake first without any drink... then "much" later juice and then.... no coffee. I asked them to bring the coffee in a polite way and her respond was "what?.." for a few sec and then "oh yes.." and that's it. No apology or any excuse. She was not rude at all but that was a bit strange for me. I like the interior and the taste of cake but service level made me really uncomfortable. So overall, not value for the money. Lastly, breakfast... really plain or quite special or healthy options or variations. You can see this kind of breakfast for 3 star hotel in any major cities these days. I'd recommend that you go to any hip cafes in mitte area to have cool breakfast if you are not busy in the morning. Cheaper and much better options & taste. Yet, service was super friendly! I've been to non-franchise and local 4 star (or 5) hotels in other areas but their room interior, condition, service level, and even breakfast were way much better - and of course, they were cheaper. I think Ritz became one of those plain franchise hotel and no effort anymore to develop their level. Definitely the whole experience was not 5 star for me at all and no value for money.

Pros: Would stay there again for sure

Pros: It was a great experience in this hotel

Cons: The price

Pros: Everything the hotel is great

Cons: The staff at check in did not offer breakfast at a lower price for the next day. I asked another member of the staff and the correct price was informed.

Pros: Location

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Location was great! Electicity plugs with usb ports!

Cons: One of the ladies at the reception. She was new and wasn t informed on the hotel facilities but at the same was quite rude.

Pros: The location could not have been better for exploring Berlin. The hotel is across the street from a train station and a u-bahn access is directly in front of the building. The room was clean and comfortable. Several restaurants were just across the street, plus all of the eating places in the train station.

Cons: The only complaint was that our room was on the same side of the building as the train tracks and several restaurants. The windows were not very sound-proof, so even on the 7th floor you could here the trains coming and going. This was not overly loud, but if you are a light sleeper it might be better to ask for an room away from the tracks. Also, one of the restaurants had live entertainment with singers who went until about 10PM. They were loud enough to be more distracting than the trains, but not loud enough to be considered in-room entertainment.

Pros: central location

Cons: not even a bottle of water included in the price

Cons: Rooms in railways side are a bit noisy.

Cons: Nothing. Perfect hotel for a base in Berlin.

Pros: The triple room was spacious, clean and comfortable. By using the room key card to activate the electrics in the room, energy is saved. The bathroom was roomy and comfortable as were the beds, chairs, etc. The most outstanding feature was the breakfast. I can't say enough about this amenity! By far the best, with the most options and best service of anywhere I have ever stayed - period. From champagne to muesli, catering to a variety of world-wide tastes, it was a wonderful experience. And the staff was excellent, all around!

Pros: Very clean and comfortable

Pros: location ....................................................

Cons: Staff need to pay more attention on reconfrimatione mail , they charged to my guests istead to contact me directly as I requested

Pros: All great;, location, breakfast, staff.

Pros: Hotel is in an excellent location very close to the U Bahn, only 5 mins walk away. Breakfast lovely, everything you could imagine or want though a little pricey. Staff helpful, we only stayed 3 nights so we put the door hanger out to say not to make fresh bed up the first night - didn't realise it applied to the whole stay unless we were to ring reception and ask for this preference to be changed. The bed was SUPER comfy and the room itself was lovely.

Cons: The staff could have straightend the bed each morning, but because we had put the card out to say no fresh bedding required, actually nothing was done each day apart from the water bottle changed over, which I didn't expect from a hotel of this quality.

Pros: Location in the center of town.

Cons: The design of the hotel. It was over a few me block walk through the hotel including going to the second floor and back down to a first floor room. Sheesh! He would have upgraded me to a better location for $60 a night. I bet!

Pros: Beds so comfortable, They were very nice and courteous.

Cons: WiFi at room cost money and free in lobby, not so high speed.

Pros: The breakfast buffet was super convenient and had a wonderful variety of foods offered. Our grand double room was a perfect size for 3 guests.

Cons: Our 5th floor had an unpleasant sewage smell the 2 nights we stayed. It would at certain times dissipate, then get more intense in the evenings. The hallway and our bathroom were awful during those times.

Pros: Everything

Pros: Fabulous location, great facilities and very comfortable

Cons: Paying extra for the Sauna

Pros: Elegant hotel. Perfectly situated in 'Mitte'. It has a smell of grandeur. However the forniture in the rooms s a bit outdated. Perfect bed. Bathroom is a bit 'simple'. Nice wellness/fitness area. Easy to reach by metro

Cons: The bar closes too early

Pros: Perfect parking service .

Pros: Breakfast was very good as always. I especially enjoyed the Birchermüsli breakfast cereal. Always a wide choice of foods! You can’t beat the central location and the access to local transportation. I also think having newspapers available at breakfast is very nice. Commendations to the service personnel in the breakfast dining area - all very polite and dedicated to good service. I think the room card requirement to use the elevators is a good security idea.

Cons: The water in the toilet flushing system sometimes continued to run after flushing.

Pros: Everything about this hotel is great, even the one thing that was troubling on my previous visit, one year ago: the servicing of the room. This time, the room was serviced after each of the six nights of my stay. No more piling up of trash and old towels...this time, perfect!

Cons: Hard to find any negatives. OK - compared to one year ago, the lovely indoor swimming pool was not always available, as they now hold water aerobics classes in the pool at certain times, usually in the late-afternoon when I'd like to use it. I'm also sorry that the old pastel-colored calming lights (that changed color every minute or so) have been replaced with a full-blast of bright light, even when classes are not being held. Shame.
