We stayed 3 nights with friends. Upon arrival we clearly got wrong room, which was clearly intended for 2 persons only as we were 2 x 3 persons group. We got instead a very nice and large room with high ceilings, of course free of charge. The room itself was quite basic but comfortable. LCD TV with international channels. Bathroom... More

To be honest, I probably would recommend this hotel & stay at it again if it wasn't for the absolutely appalling service with which we be met during our stay. We had booked a room on Expedia requesting two single beds, and when we arrived and found our room had been provided with one double bed instead of two, we... More

We stayed 2 nights in early April and choose the hotel due to its value and ease of local transport. We took the airport bus x09 from Tegel Airport to Ernst Reuter Platz and walked less than 10 min, though initially disoriented. Once we knew, was fine. Our first time in Berlin. Compared online, this was the best value for... More

Ok , this hotel is by far the most historic hotel I have stayed in, The ceiling in my room was so high and the architecture was so old. But it was very clean and the bathroom was fantastic, I didn't want to get out o the shower. I absolutely loved everything in the hotel. The staff was like family.... More

Great friendly hotel, close to metro stop "Ernst-Reuter-Platz", as well as to pubs and restaurants around Savignyplatz in the Charlottenburg borough of Berlin. Fine rooms, clean, very decent continental breakfast, quiet atmosphere. Recommended.

Hotel Gates Berlin didn't do it for me. Staff not that friendly, bed was not comfortable and the pillow was way to soft even if you fold it in half. The main reason why my partner and choose this place is that is was within walking distance was Berlin Zoo (the main reason why we were in Berlin) The saving... More

Decent size room. Clean. They have an older style heater. We are from Australia so we had no idea how to work it and no instructions were provided. Considering a lot of hotels have instructions on how to turn on the TV, I thought instructions on how to not burn down the building would have been helpful. The rooms were... More

During our trip through Europe, we decided to stay in Berlin. Our experience at the hotel was very satisfying. When checking in the staff was very friendly and helpful. The staff is multi-lingual and allowed me to practice my sketchy German during our conversation. We had a party of four and the accomodations provided were very spacious. The room was... More

My boyfriend and I stayed in this hotel for 10 days over the Christmas period, spending Christmas day itself there too. We really enjoyed our stay here, the room was comfortable and really clean. The bathroom was small but lovely with an amazing shower, even though the door was broken. There was a little confusion with breakfast, we were unsure... More
