Hotel berhampiran Schlosspark Theater, Berlin

Wir waren auf der Suche nach einer halbwegs günstigen Absteige, was in Berlin leider nicht so einfach ist. Eckstein mit seinen ca. 130,- Euro pro Nacht inkl. Frühstück gilt hier anscheinend in der Tat als günstig... Wir hatten ein sehr simples Zimmer, das aber alles hatte, was man braucht. Wenn es sauber wäre, hätte ich vielleicht weniger auszusetzen gehabt. Das Zimmer wurde zwar jeden Tag aufgeräumt, aber leider äußerst oberflächlich, d.h. alte Flecken beispielsweise die an den Türen oder auf der Unterseite des Regals im Bad waren auch am vierten Tag noch da. Da die gesamte Einrichtung eh schon in die Jahre gekommen ist, wirkte das Ganze dann noch ungepflegter. Die Bettwäsche war zwar strahlend weiß, aber mit Löchern. So was habe ich noch nie erlebt. Was aber schon sehr nett war, dass unser Zimmer im Dachgeschoß war und zum Hof hinausging und das Bad hatte ein Deckenfenster, das wunderbares Tageslicht reinließ. Das Frühstück wurde ausgesprochen günstig gehalten. Es war aber alles da. Der Frühstücksraum ist im Hotel sehr klein, die Tische sind für 4-6 Personen gedeckt. Zum Glück war der Raum nie wirklich voll und wir hatten immer einen Tisch nur für uns. Ist vielleicht Geschmackssache, aber ich muss nicht gleich in der Früh dicht an dicht mit Fremden sitzen. Leider war es teilweise sehr laut, weil die benutzten Tische sofort ab- und dann neu gedeckt wurden und es hat geklappert und gescheppert. Das Personal sauste dauernd hin und her, was in so einem Miniraum echt ein Wahnsinn ist. Was schon sehr gut war, ist die Lage des Hotels. Unsere Ausflugsziele lagen eher im Westen der Stadt, wir konnten also alles wunderbar erreichen, ohne stundenlang unterwegs zu sein. Vom Hotel bis zur U9-Station (Schloßstraße) ist es ein Katzensprung. Eine tolle große Einkaufsstraße (eine der größten in Berlin, wie es sich ergab) ist auch per Fußbus zu erreichen. Das Hotel verfügt über ein kostenloses WLAN. Das Passwort findet man aber nicht auf dem Zimmer, wie es so normalerweise ist, sondern man muss an der Rezeption fragen. Der Besitzer, glaube ich, ist schon eine lustige Person. Wir sind aber nicht dazu gekommen, ihn näher kennenzulernen. Das Personal war ok, auch wenn etwas zu hektisch. Ich kann dieses Hotel leider nicht weiterempfehlen.

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.

Stayed here in July 2022. What an ugly and dated hotel. Room needed repainting, a good clean, new furniture and the carpet on the stairs was in poor condition. The water in the shower didn't get hot. Terrifying lift, do not use unless necessary. Incredibly bad Wi-Fi (connection drops continuously) and is really poor the rest of the time. Our room was over the Shisha bar and all evening the smell of Shisha flooded the room. It was really hot in Berlin, so we needed the windows open, but then had to breathe Shisha smoke for hours. I had an asthma attack because of it. The receptionists were friendly, which was probably the only plus for this really sh*tty hotel. AVOID!

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.

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.

Lovely hotel in a quiet spot away from the hustle and bustle but only a few minutes walk from the train station and the Reichstag and Brandenburg Gate. The main street that runs from the train station to the hotel is lined with restaurants, but also many of the side streets also have restaurants that are worth exploring.

The front desk staff was very accommodating in getting me into my room quite early after an overnight flight. Rooms leave much to be desired. Beds are very tiny - what a toddler would sleep on. Beds are very, very firm. Room and bathroom weren't very clean. I had my 'do not disturb' sign on my door and received a knock from housekeeping. Repeatedly. When I went to the door, thinking the sign must have fallen off, the housekeeper pushed past me, handed me my 'do not disturb' sign and insisted I replace it with the 'clean my room' sign. It is a 20-30 minute drive to city center. The area is questionable for walking around on your own as a female traveler.

... zum einen war das Restaurant oben im Turm nicht geöffnet, was beim Buchen aber nicht rüberkommt. Und dann wirkt das Hotel doch ein wenig abgerockt. Das Zimmer war gut, aber die Sitzgelegenheiten im Frühstücksbereich und unten in der Lobby hatten doch schon die besten Jahre hinter sich. Also: alles in allem ok, aber eben nicht perfekt.

I recently visited this hotel with my boyfriend and I was very impressed. We arrived a little before check-in and we were allowed to go to our room. the room was very spacious with an extremely comfy bed and amazing shower. Also on the last day our flight was not for a while and were were allowed to wait in the lobby after checkout which had lovely sofas and seating areas. It was quiet and there were people working in there. The staff were very lobely and was great for the price.
