Hotel Berlin, Berlin, a member of Radisson Individuals
Absolutely brilliant hotel. Didn’t realise how massive it was when I booked but it didn’t feel big and soulless at all. Breakfast was busy but great, rooms were massive and it was excellent value. Was very sad to check out

Hotel Riu Plaza Berlin
Meget flot værelse. Pænt og rent og moderne. Venligt personale. Fremragende morgenmad. Ligger meget centralt i centrum. Det eneste man skal være klar over, er at der ikke er nogen dør til toiletterne.
