Dorint Kurfurstendamm Berlin

"This hotel was recommended to me by friends - and wow am I glad that I took their advice! It is so centrally located, the rooms are enormous - and the staff are wonderful and super helpful!. Everything was just perfect. This was my first time to Berlin/Germany and I was traveling solo. This was the perfect hotel for my first stay in Germany. I would definitely come back here. Especially for the location. I was able to get myself and my luggage (1 large suitcase and 1 small wheelie bag) quite easily from the hotel to a main train station (Zoologischer Garten) to get the train back to the airport from there. It is also a very short walk to Kar De We and a whole load of other shops if you are in to shopping. Given its proximity to Zoologischer Garten it was also super easy to catch trains to the meeting points for my other tours. A tip from me on the trains - the Berlin Welcome Pass AB will not get you anywhere outside of metropolitan Berlin, and yes there are guards on the train who check your tickets. But for 2Euro you can upgrade your AB train ticket to ABC. I would recommend buying the AB tickets and then upgrading them if you need to. And also don't forget to validate them! You will need an ABC to get to Potsdam and the airport."

"We stayed here for 3 days and it was a very delightful stay. The rooms are massive by European standards. Even regular rooms are over 400 sq ft. So you’ll have plenty of space to enjoy. The Wi-Fi is so slow and unreliable it is nearly useless. Often I had to disconnect it and use my cell connection to get anything done at all. The television channels are also unwatchable. No matter what station you choose they are pixellated badly much of the time or just drop out. This happened every day of our stay so it is not weather related. We did not try the breakfast as prices are high but there are endless choices of restaurants and cafes in the area. The location is right in the heart of Kurfürstendamm so no matter what you need in terms of shopping, food, or other services you’ll find it. Beds are comfortable, there is a fridge, the bathroom is massive, and there is nicely working air conditioning. Service was extremely friendly and our request for extra blankets and pillows was handled super quickly. The staff is wonderful. While this hotel has some disadvantages I would still return. It really does have a lot going for it."

"Read some recent reviews about this hotel being run down and this is NOT the case at all. Immaculate, high state of repair and we spotted no issues at all. Beds were very comfortable, we got fresh towels daily and clean glassware, new coffee pods etc. the staff were so kind speaking to us in English when we had had too many lovely German beers! I’m going to book again for next year. The supermarket across the street was very helpful too."
