Leonardo Hotel Berlin KU DAMM

"Arrived in late evening, greeted by chap on reception, he was pleasant enough and told us the basics re the hotel, the room was very big, looked out onto Ku Damm Straße via a nice balcony, had a coffee machine, tv , fridge, plenty of robe space, a safe which was faulty, but they did unlock it quickly when we had an issue, bathroom very nice, very old building but loads of character, breakfast was really good, lots of choice, hot and cold, wasn't mad busy, only gripe was no toaster, strange? So easy to get around city via train, bus, and reasonably priced, plenty of restaurants around too, I love berlin and have been a number of times, I'd return here without a second thought."

"Our second time to stay at this hotel and again, it did not disappoint. From start to finish, it was a wonderful stay. In a lovely, clean, central neighbourhood in Berlin. There is a plethora of cafés and restaurants nearby. All reasonably priced. Coffee Pony is a must try when there!! The S-Bahn is a mere 5 minute walk away and brings you to anywhere in Berlin. Another plus. The room was even better than the one we had in our first stay. Very spacious, with a comfortable bed (for 2), tea/coffee station, wardrobe with a safe, seating area and a modern bathroom. Our floor (the 4th floor) was just so peaceful. But in saying that, our first stay was also relaxing and tranquil and we had no noise complaints. The room also had a tower fan, for the hot summer months. The staff are exceptionally friendly and forthcoming. Made us feel very welcome. There is a really nice atmosphere in the hotel. The bar opens in the evenings, and they do cocktail hour from 5pm-7pm. The breakfast was nice, a continental selection which varied from cold meat, breads, cheese, veggies, fruit, pastries, eggs / sausages / bacon, yogurt pots etc etc. We only ate at the breakfast buffet once, but it was enjoyable."

"This hotel is located in a very nice and attractive part of Berlin, which is definitely one of its biggest strengths. It’s a great base if you want to explore the city and be close to everything. The rooms were clean, which is always a plus, but they felt a bit dated and could definitely use some renovation in the coming years. We had three rooms, and interestingly, they were all designed quite differently. This made the overall standard of the hotel feel a bit inconsistent, as it was hard to tell what level the hotel is really aiming for. The breakfast was perfectly fine—nothing extraordinary, but it had what you need to start your day in a good way. If you’re expecting a luxury hotel, this probably isn’t the place for you. However, for shorter stays where location and cleanliness matter most, it’s a solid and reasonable option."
