Not a bad place, comfortable, price was right
Ok place. It looks like a bordello but I was comfortable, the room was nice and clean, and I’m grateful it was blue velvet instead of the red. One every strange thing is that I wasn’t allowed to read the newspaper on my iPad in the bar after 6. I was eating dinner. No one was there…ended up in an argument. Also, the bedrooms tend to be…easy to lose things.

The property has outstanding character and meets the marketing descriptions. We did not get a room that matched the images in the booking process. It was definitely smaller.

Thank you for the time you have put into writing a feedback.We are happy you enjoyed the design and the character of our hotel.However, the pictures you compared to your definite room are just examples within that category.The rooms are not all the same but what defines the category is the free standing bathtub inside, which you have enjoyed as well.Pssst :) Insider clue: In case you come back to us, make sure to ask for a 10er room (since those are the bigger ones you saw on the pictures).We hope to see you soon!

This hotel is super sleek and sexy. And I mean legit sexy. It's def an adults-only feel, which I loved. The staff is helpful and the location is convenient (right next to the subway). The breakfast in the bar downstairs is also super tasty and filling!

Fantastic room with comfortable bed, a soaking tub, wonderful shower, enough power outlets and very romantic bedside lighting. Great location near U-bahn and steps from glamorous Kurfurstendamm. Fantastic breakfast served in the morning and a charming old world lift. Wonderful liquid hand soap near sink. Pillows could have been more substantial, very late night guests checking in could have been told to keep it a little quiet!

Overall it's fine. The good: The design is fun, the front desk staff were very helpful, and the room designs are solid overall. The bad: The staff who works the restaurant/bar were annoying and pushy and this negatively tainted our entire stay at the hotel. We just wanted to sit at the bar and grab a quick drink to kick off our first night, the place was empty, we walked in and were about to sit down when these pushy gatekeeper women came over and said that we "needed to check in", ok fine, so we said "can we sit at the bar" and they said "sure anywhere you like". We went to the bar and grabbed two seats and then a few mins later they came over and said "can I have you move". What? Why? What's wrong with these empty seats? We reluctantly moved and then proceeded to have a lousy night. It killed the mood and at that point, we didn't even want to stay. The rooms are noisy. We heard toilets flushing and sewer water running past our room every 15 mins or so. The bass from the music downstairs didn't stop until 3:30am each night. We were on the 3rd floor and there was nothing we could do to drown it out. The location is pretty dull overall. I think if you're in that location, you're there to experience the hotel itself and with the lousy restaurant experience, we were forced to venture out on our remaining nights. The hotel was just a place to sleep...poorly.

Love the styling of this hotel. It’s very glamorous & luxurious. Lots of red velvet & black & gold furniture. Has a beautiful old lift too. The area is nice and there is an underground station almost outside so you can get anywhere in Berlin easily. The staff are efficient and very friendly & helpful. Breakfast is served in the stunning restaurant and is a la cartel which makes for a much more relaxed breakfast than a buffet. Food is cooked to order and was delicious. This was our second stay at this hotel and we are planning a third visit. This hotel is perfect for a romantic weekend away.

This hotel was not in the centre of town as we had expected and we had to get 2 trains to the centre. DO NOT stay in this hotel over a weekend if you want peaceful sleep, particularly on the lower floors, as there is a VERY LOUD disco in the bar which goes on until 3am! We had to ask to be moved to the top floor. Suggest this hotel is not suitable for children. There was no wardrobe, just a pole sticking out of the wall with 5 coat hangers, obviously stuff fell off. The rooms we were in (category 3) were VERY SMALL. There are 8 categories so presumably the larger ones shown on the pictures are the higher categories, which we were unaware of. Positives - rooms were beautifully furnished & staff were very pleasant.

Interesting theme to this hotel
Good standard of accommodation, the staff were helpful and our room was comfortable. We didn’t know there was a love theme to this hotel so that was a bit of a surprise! The food and drink are rather expensive so we tended to eat out. Good location as it is close to the U bahn.
