We were attending a concert at the Music Hall which was only a few hundred metres away from the hotel. Its location was perfect for the nearby train station as well. The staff at the hotel were very friendly and their English was far, far better than my German. They were very helpful with any enquiries we had. The rooms were very clean, tidy and spacious, and the bar very comfortable and the staff once again very friendly. I will definitely use this hotel again when I return! Highly recommended!

The room was nice and clean, comfortable pillows and bedding. Love the fact that it comes with a bathtub, perfect to relax after a long day of walking around.

The bathroom is a bit small, like you enter, then you have to close the door in order to use the toilet seat, and the glass partition of the shower was not properly sealed which means the bathroom floor is flooded after each shower

Because property is beside the Stadium many sports attendees stay at this hotel. Celelebrating is mostly contained to the bar and restaurant areas.

I booked 3 rooms and for all of them;
- Rooms too hot - air con limited to not go below 20
- 'King' rooms were two small single beds pushed together with 2 small single cheap duvets. Beds simple foam like as were the tiny supplied pillows. All very uncomfortable. Felt like cheap hostel. Did not sleep well at all.
- When I complained, I was moved to another room but all exactly the same.
- Tiny TVs in room, only one english channel (bbc news)
- Room was never cleaned during stay, towels not changed etc.
- Safe was damaged, furniture slightly worn etc.

Top quality Hotel at a very reasonable price.

The Holiday Inn is a lovely hotel which is ideally situated for discovering the sights and scenery of the east side if Berlin. From the moment we checked in about three hours early , the receptionist allowed us to go to our room which was ready and was in tip top shape. The room was very neat and tidy and had Coffee and Tea and Hot Chocolate available. Breakfast was top class with a choice of a cooked breakfast or a continental breakfast if required. Believe me , the breakfast wont disappoint. Staff were very friendly and helpful . Overall our experience in Holiday Inn Berlin was first class.

Junk hotel

We stayed for nine days and I would not stay again. The shower leaked all over the bathroom floor every time we showered. Staff would not replace shampoo and soap or give us clean cups. We asked one afternoon, before leaving for the evening, for extra towels - to sop up the soaking floor - and shampoo. When we returned late at night, we found we had been ignored. We asked for the shower to be fixed. Nothing happened. The wifi worked maybe 50% of the time. Again, we asked, but nothing happened. I don't expect a luxurious experience at this price point. But I do expect a functional room and reasonably smooth experience. This hotel didn't come close.

OUTSTANDING! Best in Berlin - don't miss out.

I've been traveling extensively, internationally for years and this was the best decision I've ever made for travel. Literally the best possible location for Berlin experience. Extremely safe, quiet, hip, sleek/new, close to trains, tourist sites and the beautiful river.

I was in Berlin for the first time to DJ two nearby venues -- it is close to all the major clubs (including Berghain, which I attended) but not directly next to them, so it's super quiet. Hotel is part of a BRAND NEW sleek complex attached to the new Mercedes Benz arena, with other hotels, loads of restaurants, cafes, and an amazing mall with grocery stores, clothes, hair/nail salons and drugstores -- which I took advantage of all. It's also close to both the U-Bahn and S-Bahn trains, the light rail and buses to get you everywhere. Also close to doner and pizza places :) There's nowhere else in Berlin that you can get the new/sleek/comfortable environment but also surrounded by authentic hipster Berlin and culture (next to Berlin Wall - East Side Gallery).

The hotel itself has a great coffee shop, restaurant, and free apples at the counter! I interacted with the desk/concierge several times and they were extremely helpful and kind. All this and it's extremely reasonable and affordable. 11/10!

The staff were some of the friendliest I’ve encountered and being able to see what is arguably the most famous painting on the East Wall Gallery, from my room was great. The bar was always open with quick service and trhe hotel is minutes away from the Hop On, Hop Hop Off bus stop, great restaurants, The Ramones Museum and much more.

The three things I would say I didn’t care much for was the prices at bar. 3€ for a small bottle of water and 9 -12€ for most mixed drinks. Maybe that’s the standard around Berlin but it hurt a bit. The 3/4 shower door that will let water all over the floor and the step down from shower to floor was pretty big. I’m 6’1 and it seemed big to me.

Overall I would recommend the hotel and would stay there again.
