Dorint Kurfürstendamm Berlin

"Dorint is an excellent hotel with prime location steps from the Kurfürstendamm metro stop. Surrounded by outstanding restaurants in a quiet neighborhood, this massive hotel is an solid option. Comfortable beds & pillows & effective blackout shades as well as a bustling buffet breakfast. Some of the room amenities could be upgraded -- the towel quality, lack of robes & minibar & difficult to manage thermostat. Yes, these are ultra-picky minor details but for the price point should be mentioned. Request a room on a higher floor. Friendly staff help to make this overall, a top choice for hotels in Berlin."

"This hotel is fundamently a good hotel but this hotel needs a full renovation to be a better hotel. 1 The aircondition is very noisy, i think some will be very annoyed by this and you cant set the exact degree if you example want it around 21 degrees 2 Forniture is nade by great quality but are from 20 years ago, but specially the work table should be changed to a newer model, 3 Generally many injury on furniture in the hight where luggage are rolled around 4 The bathroom is clean but should be bringed into the year of 2026.."

"No longer a 5* hotel! 5-star guests expect luxurious, generous hospitality. The DORINT Ku’Dam used to be a Sofitel Hotel. The marvelous architecture, top material quality, and the great art remain. HOWEVER… Sofitel used to provide luxurious quality toiletries from the likes of Hermes and Lanvin. At DORINT, some genius executives decided to offer guests cheap toiletries by “Olive Care” (Why Cheap? I checked: 400 ml “Olive Care Shower Gel & Shampoo” is sold for only €5. Hermes & Lanvin are far more expensive and luxurious). The bath towels are also tiny, of shameful low quality, and evidently had already gone through too many laundry cycles. Experienced professionals know the key to success in the Travel & Hospitality business is in utilization. Cost-focused bean-counters can cut expenses, but thus lose guest customers, lower rooms utilization, and damage profitability. Dramatically. In my Deluxe room, cleaning is no longer meticulous, and the high-quality veneer of the wall separating the bedroom from the wardrobe & bath has been stained (picture attached). Clearly, it must have been a while since it was cleaned... In short: the DORINT Ku’Dam Hotel is no longer a 5* hotel. There are numerous alternatives nearby, so I no longer see a reason why we – or you – should book the DORINT again."
