Nice value and great location
Nice newer hotel and well located. A block to the subway and a short walk to many restaurants. A nice value for the money. Only possible drawback: there are some bars and clubs nearby. So, we did hear some late night music from our room.

We’d go back, for sure
The hotel is located at the end of a strip of cute bars, coffee shops and restaurants. The area is pretty lively at night. Next to subways and public transportation. It has a cute bar/sitting area in the lobby, but we never tried it. Everything is clean and orderly. Ask for a room facing the street, as it could be fun to watch what is going on outside. I didn’t, but wish I had. There is some kind of club that starts techno/house music around 1pm (in the middle of our sleeping hours) and ends around 5pm. It was pretty loud and kept us up. But, it wasn’t so bad that we wouldn’t stay there again. The staff isn’t very helpful answering tourist-type questions. For example, we were waiting for our room to be available on our first day in Berlin. We asked, "What is easy to get to that we should go see while we wait?" The hotel clerk replied, "Well, nothing really." hmmm... But, she did provide a good map and we figured it out ourselves.

Nice stay in the Artsy district
Fancy a nice stay in a trendy, artsy district of former East Berlin then Arcotel Velvet Berlin is your place! Rooms were clean, service was great, and the night life was great (well for Berlin anyway). Just be wary of the prostitutes in the gogo boots and you’ll be fine.
