Hotel berhampiran Bootsliegeplätze Strauß/Mette (strauss@bootsstände-mette.de), Berlin

Some of these reviews are very harsh but if you have stayed in a pension before it meets expectations. I was worried at the beginning when I read the reviews but pleasantly surprised. Very little English is spoken but enough to get by. Breakfast was a buffet German style and well stocked with cold meat and cheese, bread and cereals. The single room was small but had a sink and shower cubicle in. The balcony was a plus. What made this a 3 star review? The noise, the first night I was woken up at 3am by shouting in the corridor (it wasn't English or German). At its a pension there is no 24 hour reception or security people which means it's up to people to be conscious of others. Most mornings I was spoken up by others (thankfully not as early). The surrounding area is ok but people to drink/smoke on the steps from the bar next door. Would I come back yes but with ear plugs! As for the price is very good!

Io e il mio ragazzo abbiamo alloggiato qui a marzo 2019 (non mi dà l'opzione) e abbiamo trovato l'hotel molto pulito,camera doppia grande e personale gentile e cortese. Come posizione si trova un po' distante dal centro, ma a pochi metri ci sono le due linee metropolitane S e U con cui ci si può muovere bene. Se mai dovremo tornare a Berlino saremo contenti di essere nuovamente ospiti qui.

This hotel has had a revamp and is now called the Art Hotel, Park Plaza. There is another Park Plaza nearby…..we ended up there first! So don’t get confused!! Once you find this hotel….we arrived on the day of a national strike… it’s fab. Ignore the journey planner…. This hotel is a less than 10 min walk from the western end of the U1 line. The room we had was on 5th floor on a quite busy street, but it was so quiet we didn’t realise it until we looked out of the window the following morning. The bed and pillows were so comfortable, a great night sleep was had by us both. Shower was a big rainfall type with a smaller head shower head option if you wanted. Complimentary Elemis shower gel, hand wash, as well as body lotion. Breakfast was worth every penny as part of your B&B option. Otherwise it’s €18 for a full option or €5 for coffee and a croissant in the bar. Breakfast was fresh, pastries, cheese, meats, toast, mushrooms, sausage, bacon, pancakes, cereals, yoghurts; you could make your own fresh juice from fresh veggies & fruits. Coffee was excellent (I was told)…. I took my own teabags as I am very fussy, and made great tea. There is a spectacular hot water urn……that is very ornate and was awesome. Staff were multilingual and very helpful. Nothing was too much trouble and they were very insightful about the local area, and the available public transport options. I would highly recommend this hotel which has pop art throughout. We are planning to head back to visit Berlin again and we will most certainly stay here again.

The hotel is near the Savignyplatz station, which is a good area. Another plus was that the room was very clean. However, it should not be advertised as a hotel with a gym & sauna. The “gym” was a small room with a treadmill and a cable machine, and the sauna was not working at all. I wouldn’t have booked this hotel if the right information was available.

Have stayed at a few hotels in Berlin - and this is the one I keep coming back to - location, and value for money - design and comfort and tranquillity and harmony of design - staff always very professional, helpful and most welcoming and friendly - breakfast is a wonderful indulgence. Hope to continue to return. Thank you Seminaris CampusHotel Berlin

Although the location and price for this hotel is great, the rooms themselves were disappointing. When entering the room for our first night I was immediately concerned about the room, with some wall fittings falling off, what seemed to be a lack of smoke alarm, one small bedside lamp and a tv relatively small and far from the bed along with only one alternative chair. Despite these shortcomings the room is quite spacious and beds relatively fine, with somewhat good soundproofing on the windows to stop the noise of the busy streets. Although these negatives would have been outweighed by the positives, we also had no room cleaning our entire 6 night stay which was highly disappointing. We would be awakened by the cleaners relatively early in the morning however usually we slept through this first attempt to clean. Most hotels would assume someone is asleep and come back and clean after they have gone about their day however this did not occur for our entire trip duration. To make matters worse we had no toilet roll replacements and had to source our own. In addition, on our 5th night they did Infact enter our room, they did Not take our overflowing bin, towels from the specified pick up area, change our sheets or make our beds or clean any portion of the room as expected of them. All they did was give us toilet roll. Very disappointing considering the ideal location for the hotel and the price.(although much cheaper than anywhere else in the area so some disappointment to be expected)

This was a very good location in Berlin. I was able to walk around safely and get to some great places I wanted to visit, and there's plenty of restaurants in the area and a train, too. The room was clean and in good shape, and they offered a reasonable price. The staff was very nice and helpful, as well.

The hotel is clean, modern and well-staffed. What was missing for us was warmth and the expected level of hospitality. During our 5-day stay, nobody ever said hello, goodbye or communicated in any manner unless we asked a direct question. When I checked out, the only thing the receptionist said was to remind me I had borrowed an electrical adaptor and to return it. I travel frequently and expect hotels to be warm and welcoming. Also, when I checked in I was given no hotel information other than the E25 breakfast hours. I'm sure it's wonderful, but I since only have coffee, there is no reason to pay 25 euros. Because we didn't go to breakfast and the receptionist didn't tell us, we missed many features of the hotel we might have enjoyed. To further our disappointing stay, there was no printed hotel info in our room other than a book about the featured artist. I hate QR codes, but when I scanned the hotel's, it gave sp**** information. The hotel lobby isn't welcoming and I didn't go to the bar until my last night so was unaware of all the things Art'otel would have liked me to know. The magazine was interesting and beautiful. Why isn't there a copy in guest rooms? The local information and maps were available in the breakfast area, but we didn't go there and weren't offered them by hotel staff. One of the reasons I chose the hotel was the pictures of beautiful bathrooms with tubs. Sadly, the website fails to mention that tubs are only available in expensive suites. Our visit, while nice, was overpriced. We paid for hospitality and a good room, but only the room was up to the expected standards. Very disappointing.

Excellent location with easy connections to explore entire city. Very touristy vibe which is good for tourists and visitors. Would be back with family.

We arrived before 3pm and were allowed to book in, very easy and no issues. The reception staff are lovely and friendly. The room was clean and well maintained. We didn’t pre book breakfast but decided to try it £19 for 2 people was very reasonable and no limit on what you could eat, I will definitely be staying here again if we return to Berlin, the location is great for accessing all transport with a station almost immediately outside the hotel
