“Good location, great hotel and friendly staff.”

The hotel staff were very welcoming and friendly, full of good advice on which markets to visit. The location of the hotel is superb, near the U-bahn and just round the corner from Check Point Charlie in a very quiet street so we heard no traffic or outside noises which we have experienced with other city centre hotels. The hotel is very modern and the rooms decorated to an excellent standard. We loved the expresso machine in our room, and the waterfall shower. If we were to return to Berlin we would definitely look to stay here again, and would recommend to our friends and family.

“short break in berlin”

We had a residenz room which was really large and included kitchenette.really comfortable room with plenty of space. Hotel was in a good position next to Check Point Charlie,all the main tourist sights and the underground.For a city location the hotel was really quiet,also there was an excellent restaurant only 100 yards away.

“This is a winner.”

I've spent a large part of my life in hotels all over the world; this is among the best. Location: great, Service: cheerful, helpful and proactive, the Room: spotless, large, beautifully furnished and equipped, Breakfast: fresh, varied and excellent. It gets my highest recommendation.

“Very comfortable, pleasant experience”

Very friendly, helpful staff, comfortable, spacious room. One caveat: Upon check-in, the clerk commented that we have one of the nicest rooms (a former apartment, 2 stories with a patio and 2 bathrooms) separate from the main hotel building. Everything about this room was great, but the clerk's comment makes me wonder if that was the exception, so I can't vouch for what the rest of the rooms are like.

“Best location in town”

Loved the Mercure. Large, comfortable rooms, friendly staff, quiet environment, two minutes from U-station StadtMitte, very good restaurants minutes away (especially the Malatesta on Charlotten Strasse and Sale e Tabacchi on Dutschke Strasse). Shopping on Friedrichstrasse around the corner. Would not stay anywhere else in Berlin. And the price was modest.

“Mercure Checkpoint Charlie - excellent hotel”

A really beautiful hotel in the heart of Berlin Amazingly quiet given the city centre location. The communal and private areas were all spotlessly clean. Large selection of excellent food at the breakfast buffet Ideal for wheelchair users. The disabled room is simply HUGE!! The loo/wet room is spacious too. For me the loo was actually set too highlight and was difficult (but not impossible) to get on to however I am 5 foot 4 with bent knees so I am at the "shortie" end of the scale. There were lots of hand rails and a large fold down bench under the shower

“A Hotel with style and good value.”

I had a superb room (large, with entrance lobby, separate shower/washroom and separate toilet). A lot of space including 3 piece suite, tv, twin beds. Although I had a room next to the lift on the 5th floor, it was extremely quiet. The buffet breakfast has to be seen to be believed! Ideally situated round the corner from Checkpoint Charlie and Friedrichstrasse - the 'Oxford Street' of East Berlin. I would certainly use this hotel if I ever return to Berlin.

“Checkpoint Charlie Gem”

We stayed 4 nights in the Mercure at Checkpoint Charlie (500m) and enjoyed this hotel. The staff were most helpful and we loved the Wine Garden. The metro was about 5-10min walk as was some of the main Berlin streets. Would revisit.

“Cosy and well located”

So close to History in such an interesting city... Hard working and helpful staff. Breakfast is expensive if not included in the rate.

“Location, location, location”

First time visitors to Berlin with friends on a 3 night city break and we were not disappointed. The hotel is excellent and typical of a Mercure city hotel. We booked room only because we prefer to have breakfast out in the city. We stayed in Superior Doubles with lots of space and balcony. The hotel is a few hundred yards from Checkpoint Charlie which is a good starting point to understand the once-divided city. Also very close to Gendarmarkt Square where there are plenty of bars and restaurants - the Italian Malatesta is a real gem (best risotto outside of Italy).
