Really nice hotel, spacious and luxurious. Comfortable and clean. Very near to the station as well. Will definitely Be back. It’s just that the tourism tax at the end was a surprise since I wasn’t informed about it

Wilmersdorf Berlin|5.65km from city centre
My colleague and I had pre-booked rooms with King-size beds, but we were given rooms with narrow Twin beds, which were uncomfortable. We were told that, unfortunately, there were no King rooms available, although judging by the light coming from the windows, half of the rooms appeared to be empty. The worst part was that the two of us were given rooms at the very end of the hallway on the ground floor, directly above the parking exit. It was unbearably loud starting at 5 a.m., making it impossible to sleep. On top of that, right above this parking exit, there was a flag with the hotel logo that was poorly secured, and it squeaked all night in the wind. From 5 a.m., deliveries began through the parking area, with carts rolling back and forth, creating an unbearable rumble and noise that echoed through the rooms. This is a very clean hotel with nice complimentary amenities like a restocked minibar, and overall it’s a good property. However, the way we were treated — being given the worst possible rooms — ruined the entire experience for us.

The room is very big. It is on the second floor. You can walk out of the room and there is a small garden. The bed is very comfortable, not too soft or too hard, great. The Berlin Gate is right outside the door, and the subway entrance is less than 50 meters away. The transportation is extremely convenient. The breakfast is great, there are many waiters, coffee, tea, and food that needs to be waited for can be ordered and asked to be delivered by the waiter. In short, the experience is very good. I will come again.

The service attitude is good, clean and hygienic. It seems that they helped to upgrade the room type for free. But I don't know why the water in the bathroom is green. I don't know if this is a common phenomenon in Germany. I told the front desk to change a room. The location is right at the subway station. It may take more than 20 minutes to walk to the general attractions.

This hotel is 5/5 , definitely will book again if I have to chance to come to Berlin. We booked a junior suite for 4 person, it comes with super fancy lounge access, the food was delicious and unlimited drinks is provided, we’ve enjoy watching few nights of eurocup in the lounge. The hotel location is super convenient as well. It is just about 5 minute walk to the train station and there was direct train to the airport from there. It was also close to other tourist attraction all reachable under 5minute by taking metro ! I would say this hotel is 10/10 super worth what I’ve paid for

Hotel located on the great place. Room is stated as single room suitable for only one person, but the room had two single beds, would have been better with 2 single beds. No still water or any amenities apart from bathroom amenities. I had requested for an early departure, which was refused. I understand the policy but flexibility is some way or half way is always appreciated and I am from the same industry with 17yrs experience. Staff at the bar was really great, service and refill was delayed understand since the bar was busy.

The hotel seems to be a little old but it is clean and modern inside. The room is a little small but still comfortable. There are a few Asian restaurants and a cafe just around the corner of the hotel. The transportation is not bad. There are a few underground stations nearby. The trip to the BER airport is about one hour.

We had a great stay in our room. The room was not large but the price was right. The Hotel is in a quiet neighbourhood. The Subway and baker are just around the corner. There is a super market nearby and we could just walk to the centre of Berlin. We will certainly book this hotel again if we plan a trip to Berlin!

Staff is amazingly friendly and helpful. Facilities are great, we used the bar, the luggage storage and the lounge. They even had Christmas specials at the bar and Christmas tree with lights and deco in the lobby, made the place cosy and festive. 🎄 Our room was clean, the towels worn but still usable, the windows could be done with a clean but the beds and bedding were clean and comfortable. We’d definitely come back.

It was the most spacious and comfortable to stay among the European hotels I have experienced so far. It was a trustworthy Novotel, and although it was a bit disappointing that water was only provided on the first day, the overall room condition was good. I was satisfied with the location as it was easy to use because there was public transportation nearby and it was also good for walking.
