The hotel is central and close to a metro station, so everything is easy to reach. Nice and clean small room with a comfortable bed. No air conditioned in the room, so it was a little warm, but hopefully there was no heat wave during our stay. Unfortunately, there was no coffee in the room exception decaffeinated. We asked for regular coffee but there was none available and unfortunately the coffee machine in the lobby did not work. Hopefully it gets fixed soon! :)

J'ai bien apprécié mon séjour au sein de cet hôtel. Le lit était très confortable. Il était possible d'ouvrir les fenêtres pour plus de fraîcheur.

La propreté de la salle de bain serait à revoir. Il y avait de la moisissure dans les coins de la douche, de la poussière et des toiles d'araignées sur le plafond. Autrement dit, la propreté était médiocre.

Le personnel est très gentil et sympathique.

The hotel may look modest from the street and sit a bit off the main drag, but it turned out to be a great value. Bright, spacious rooms, really comfortable beds, and a very fair price. Plus, there’s a delicious Vietnamese spot nearby that made the stay even better.

A decent hotel but nothing special! We booked this hotel specifically because they let you actually choose between a twin and double room (we wanted a twin) - but when we got to the hotel we'd been put in the wrong kind of room and when we went down to speak to reception about it their response was just \"do you definitely need to swap?\" as if we were inconveniencing them by being given the wrong room.
Convenient for travel with a U-Bahn around the corner and not too far to walk to the Potsdamerplatz station where you can get a train to the airport.

Overall the hotel 'did the job' Everything was clean and worked.The staff were especially nice and there was a good amount of breakfast. Location was good only 5 minutes from UBahn/Metro . The room itself was just a bit functional. Bed was comfy, shower worked well but the room itself was fairly small and had little natural light. There was a bottle of water and tea making facilities but no milk and things were not replenished for the second day. Also very visible building /refurbishment was happening in the adjoining building. It was a \"practical\" stay but felt like a few more details couldve made it more comfortable/welcoming .

I had to change my room 3 times. The first room was stinky and cold, the second had a water sink from the shower and the 3 one had no hair dresser working.
They offered me a free breakfast the last night for the inconveniences. I was also sick during those days and no one even helped me carrying my stuff from.moving from room to room. The cleaning ladies entered in my room at 8am on Saturday while I was in bed sleeping. Without speaking a word of English. Very bad.

Hotel is just average. There are better options in Berlin but due to a German holiday all hotel were very expensive. Get what you pay for but the room was clean and adequate. No temperature controls including no ac. Luckily we stayed while it was cold but you have to adjust the gas heater manually to get the correct heat. Back to 1955. 😀 Another couple traveling with us had an issue in the breakfast area with the wait staff. We never ate there so I cannot comment.

We stayed at the Garner Hotel for a short city break and what a find it was. Situated very close to the tourist attractions, cafes and restaurants, it is incredibly quiet and with very comfortable beds and pillows, made for an excellent night's sleep. Reception staff were excellent and made sure that we had everything we needed. I wouldn't hesitate to come back to this Garner if we ever visit Berlin again.

With any holiday, you budget for it. So I was very surprised to turn up to hear I have to pay around 400 euros for the hotel stay. To put this into context, I used an active card to pay prior to visiting and my end it shows on Expedia that I’m paid up. However, this was not the case. It would have been courteous of the hotel to have contacted me immediately when they realised this. However they did not mention this at all. And there was communication between myself and the hotel prior to this trip. Disappointing and poor communication!!

Conveniently located by two U-bahn stops. Checkpoint Charlie is a 5 minute walk away. Don't believe the offer for a free drink to skip housecleaning. I did, but couldn't use the coupon for the free drink because it didn't include beer. It is only for a select beverage. Not what the door tag said. To me, a free drink includes beer. I don't drink hard alcohol, so I think I was enticed to get something I wouldn't use. Had I known beer didn't count, I would have taken the fresh linens.

If I could give negative stars I would. The shower had mold so bad it smelled of mold. The staff apart from one man was as rude as they come. The room was not the room I ordered, their system's were broken so no keys the first night. They gave me one coffee 3 decaf coffees for a 3 night stay. When I asked for more coffee I was denied. When the blowdryer broke & I asked for a new one, I was told no and made to feel like I was putting her out. When I tried to get help for the correct room I was told I had the right room and the room never looks like the room pictured. The bed and pillows gave me the worst neck pain. Mainly just afraid to tell them anything was wrong or ask for any help. They also couldn't find my name in the system and tried to make me pay twice when I was already there for one night. I wish I had the money to just leave and book another hotel. Nothing was as pictured.
