Diedersdorf Vacations from $1,047

This is an excellent hotel. The rooms, staff and amenities are all First Rate. And the view from our room overlooking the Zoo was unbelievable. Who wakes up with Kangaroos running around just outside their window? Our only caution is it is a bit remote, far from public transit and walking through the pitch black Tiergarten at night is not an option.

The hotel's location couldn't be better, close to Gendarmenmarkt, Museum Island, Potsdamer Platz, shopping, public transportation, and a wide variety of restaurants. Rooms are reasonably large and comfortable, though the mannered chairs take up way too much space and should be replaced. Desk staff could be more welcoming but the women on the restaurant staff are wonderfully friendly and there is a good, though pricey, breakfast buffet. The bar offers cocktails at a discount on weekdays. The laundry service is poor to the point of being unusable, charging double on weekends and for pickups even one minute after the stated 9 am guest delivery time. For longer stays a self-service laundromat is the only option.

Deluxe double room was great, shower was particularly good. Staff were all friendly and couldn’t help you enough. Breakfast choice was great and delicious.

Place was nice. 2 issues that keeps me from giving a higher score: 1. Breakfast was supposed to be included yet I was charged for it each day. 2. The shower in the bathroom was an open shower, no partition or curtain and water goes everywhere.

Lovely spacious suite with balcony, great amenities, friendly & efficient staff.
