Hotel berhampiran Hochmeisterkirche, Berlin

„+“ • nicely arranged apartment • very nice bathroom with window • no noise outside during the night so I could sleep with opened window • very balanced/rich breakfast (incl. vegan options) • generally clean • ecology: you can skip the room cleaning/towel change and get a free drink • puplic transportation: 8 min walking to the next subway station ~ • receptionists were very kind but some of them rather neutral/passive, some occupied themselves with their private smartphones as long as no guest was requesting their attention • the apartment on 19 m2 is officially an apartment because of the tiny kitchenette but it did not have the homely appearance of an apartment in which you would like to spend more time than in a normal hotel room • parking: all parking spaces in the street in which the hotel is were occupied but I could find a free parking space in a different street very nearby - • there were no towels in the apartment • the shower mat was dirty/used -＞ in both cases the staff helped me immediately • the kitchen in the apartment could not be fully used because there was not even a pot or a pan • the very few kitchen utensils were stored in a plastic bucket that was located in the open cupboard where you put your clothes and this bucket looked like a rubbish bin

Overall Experience Impressive property that reflects the care and attention to detail management and staff have devoted to this gem. While it isn’t next door to the Mall of Berlin (20-minute subway ride away) and does not have the city-center bustle (meh), Hotel Louisa’s Place has an old-world charm with all the modern conveniences needed for a very comfortable stay. I will stay here on my next trip to Berlin and I would highly recommend to anyone seeking a comfortable alternative to the corporate chain hotels. Room: Very much liked the room floorplan. It was like a 1-bedroom apartment with a separate living/dining/kitchen area and a patio with a table for two overlooking the courtyard. The bathroom was spacious with a huge shower. The 12-foot-high ceilings with ornate crown molding and large windows made it seem very grand. We felt as though we had a posh European flat for our week in Berlin with all the amenities of a very nice hotel. Location: I was surprised to learn that everything we needed during our stay was within walking distance. We found three grocery stores and more restaurants than we had time to try all within a 5–10-minute walk. There was also an abundance of other shops and stores near the hotel. The U-Bahn (subway) station was 1 block from the front door. The S-Bahn (main city-wide trains) station was a 8-10-minute walk or you could walk to the U-Bahn and ride it to the next stop and shorten the walk to the S-Bahn. We did not need a rental car since all of our activities were accessible from the nearby subway or train. Price: I did my homework and found this hotel to be well-positioned in the market. Value for money was very good. So glad we did not stay in the chain hotel we were considering. Service: Unlike American hotels post-pandemic, housekeeping was done every day of our stay with fresh towels as needed. They emptied the trash bins and collected recycled containers and generally tidied up. All staff were very friendly and eager to help with any questions and requests we had. Cleanliness: All aspects of this hotel were well tended to. I typically wipe down drawers and shelves before putting clothes away. That was not necessary at this hotel. The bathroom and kitchen were very clean, and I was impressed by how this older building has been meticulously upgraded and maintained.

False advertisement that renovations started 8/1- did not start until 10/1. Room looked NOTHING like the pic on the RSVP I made. Rooms are very old and dated - felt like we were in a hostel. A/C weak to nonexistent. We had to sleep with the windows open - very uncomfortable. The pillows way too small and soft, we had to use 2 - Tub a safety hazard- very deep and I injured myself. Half a shower cover -wth - so water was all over the floor when we showered. We stayed 6 nights, honestly as much as we paid, breakfast should have been included! Overpriced breakfast with basic items. The breakfast was good but for a weeks stay, it should have been included. location was nice and close to public transpo, eateries, and an organic supermarket. Staff was as friendly as they could be. Nice having kitchenette. Veru very small tv, only ONE English Channel and that is nowhere listed, we had to call desk a few days into stay. A lot can be done better here- if you need a quick place for a day or 2 fine, but i would not suggest this place until they do a complete overhaul of the rooms and appropriate amenities. The rooms look nothing like the lobby, very disappointing to be mislead.

Замечательный отель) всё на высшем уровне.

An sich war alles in Ordnung. Das einzige was halt sehr schade ist, sind die dreckigen und total verkalkten duschköpfe... Das Klopapier ist zu rau und auch die kissen sind nicht so gemütlich gewesen... Aber am sonsten wars in Ordnung.... Man könnte auch dafür sorgen, dass jeder der im Zimmer ist einen eigenen Schlüssel bekommt, statt dass sich alle ein Schlüssel teilen müssen.

The hair dryer in my room was not working. The room was so cold. The receptions could not speak English very well so they couldn’t understand my words. It was claimed that there would be a vending machine actually it was but it does not have water as the most important thing! The location is a little bit far away from public transportation.

The hotel is very well located next to a metro station and in front of it there is a bus, M85 that takes you to the main train station. The Turkish place next door offers amazing fresh kebabs. The city tour bus is just 20 min walk or couple of stations ride. The room was clean, the breakfast was having good varieties. The only missing part was the air conditioner, but the weather was good and we could sleep the night without it.

The accommodation boasts convenient proximity to the metro station, ensuring easy access to transportation infrastructure. Moreover, its cleanliness adds to the overall appeal, enhancing the quality of the living environment.

Prima, dass es jetzt direkt am Terminal 1/2 des BER nun neben dem Steigenberger auch das IntercityHotel gibt. Es wurde erst Mitte Januar 2023 eröffnet. Die Zimmer sind modern, praktisch und chic, wie die in den meisten neuen bzw. renovierten Intercity Hotels. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und engagiert, manche Prozesse müssen sich für ein neues Team sicher noch einspielen. Man ist in ein paar Minuten zu Fuss direkt im Terminal am Check-in, ebenso am Flughafenbahnhof mit Fern-, Regional und S-Bahn-Verkehr. Frühstück gibt es ab Punkt 6:00 Uhr, da geht das Licht im Restaurant an, es gibt ein vielfältiges Frühstücksangebot. Nach meinem nicht so tollen Aufenthalt im danebenliegenden Steigenberger ist das IntercityHotel Airport BER empfehlenswert. Ich hoffe nur, dass Gäste es nicht zu oft mit dem IntercityHotel am Bahnhof Schönefeld verwechseln, die Namensgebung der beiden Hotels ist sicher nicht ganz so toll.
