Berlin Mark Hotel - Berlin 52.50064, 13.32888

I payed a reduced rate to stay at the hotel for 6 nights (30% off or something). I found the hotel to be modern and tidy but my room was slightly shabby and dated. I think the hotel was being refurbished and they forgot my room! Maybe it was the whole of the 6th floor- like they were the 'cheap rooms' or something. Breakfast was included and it was good quality and varied. My room was clean but the decor was not nice and the room was small. The air con didnt really work and there was no kettle to boil water or any complimentary toiletries or water to drink. The location is in the west of Berlin. This is useful but at the moment there are works on the line which serves the nearest U-Bahn station. Check before you travel !!! The surrounding area is a bit of a tourist trap but has some good shopping. Not good for food or coffees. You should head to the east for more of an original experience. However, Berlin is easy and cheap to travel round - even when the Euro is so strong a travel card works out cheaper than in the UK. The hotel staff are very friendly and helpful. 4/5

Very decent hotel. Room was very clean, managed to get one with a tub! Breakfast was great, although get there before 8am, otherwise it's hard to get a seat.

Excellent location, pleasant staff and a good breakfast.

good location, good reception staff, well cleaned room but curtains could fit windows better as bright sunshine in morning was disturbing, breakfast was good and well replenished although staff had trouble clearing the tables quickly, For a busy hotel we found the rooms small but quiet

Great location - close to several U-Bahn stops (Uhlandstrasse and Kurfurstendamm, although I enjoyed the 10 minute walk to Zoo Garten which was a more useful line for me), and right on the Ku'Damm, so walking home at night alone was fine as it was always busy. Plenty of places to eat on Meinekestrasse and the Ku'Damm. The hotel breakfasts were amazing! Lots of lovely things to choose from and buffet style so you could fill yourself up before a day of sightseeing:-) Perfectly comfortable room (apart from falling down the gap between the mattresses of my 'double bed' a few times) with nice bathroom. Initially given the wrong room but the staff sorted that out in 2 minutes. All in all, very good value for money and somewhere I'd use again.

Loved this hotel, second time i have stayed there. Room on the 7th floor, got a twin even though I am single. Breakfast sevice has improved since last year. Centrally placed hotel easy access to all modes of transport and restaurants.

i stayed at this hotel from the first to fourth of March - it was a great hotel in a great location and i would stay here again if i was to go back to Berlin. the price of our room included a traditional breakfast each morning and on the sunday it was served until twelve - so there was no rush to get down to the dining room early. there are good transport links nearby, with all the city sighseeing tour buses leaving from the ku-dam which is a couple of minutes walk away. there were also a couple of nice pubs on the same road as the hotel which we would call into on our way back to the hotel for a beer and also the hard rock cafeserves lovely food - but be prepared for a bit of a wait!

We stayed in the Mark hotel in February 2008 and by the look of it they have just had a refurbishment, with little things like the lift buttons not finished. Overall the hotel is in a great location just off the Kurfurstendam and very close (i.e. 300m) to the nearest U-bahn station and within easy walking distance to the Zoo Garten station which comes from the airport. The hotel itself is lovely, a buffet brekfast is served in the morning from 6:30 - 10am with plenty of selection, the staff are really friendly and helpful and the foyer and restaurant are very modern and chic. The room was very nice with comfortable beds and the shower and bathroom was clinically clean with a very powerful shoer. Overall i would deffinately return to this great value stylish hotel in the heart of West Berlin.

The location is very good, one block up and one block down from Kurf. subway. The hotel is just 5 mins walk to the church on the bend of kurf....dont ask me the name of it...but as tourist you will know it. The breakfast was great. I really enjoyed them (inc in the price). Rooms were spotless, clean and shower rooms were white and tidy. I travelled using a priority boarding ticket that you have to print out online a newish thing from ryanair...but of course I did not bring my computer and printer with me...reception was great and spent few mins with me going throug the website and printed the form off my boarding ticket....so for that alone 5 star for the help. I just found the hotel fine, not there a great deal. I just need clean and tidy and smiles when I arrive and enter...and that is what I got. Very satisfied.

Excellent hotel, clean, efficient, helpful and friendly. Close to shops, buses, stations and places of interest. Fantastic breakfasts, everything you could think of and more, but poor evening meals. Better to eat in one of the the good choice of restaurants outside. Room rather small and cramped but only in it to sleep and beds comfortable. No traffic noise, even though on a main road. Recomend it highly.

Really enjoyed our stay at the hotel, very impressed that a request for an extra pillow at almost midnight dealt with promptly. All staff very friendly and efficient, breakfast selection excellent. Hotel on very nice quiet street off the main drag, very easy to get to bus and train stops. Would recommend to friends as a place to stay in Berlin.

I think we were pleasantly surprised with the quality at the Mark Hotel in Berlin. We were upgraded to a corner suite which was roomy and well furnished. The surrounding neighborhood is great for shopping and restaurants. Although it can be a bit of a long walk to some of the more historical sites they are readily available by the metro.

Service is a touch "Berlin", my keycard stopped working and internet was down for a day. But rooms are comfortable, breakfast (we had ours in the business lounge) was decent, and the location is excellent. The Literaturcafe on the next street over is a great place to go for coffee or dinner.

The breakfast price was high for the service and the arrangement

Over all it was a fun stay in Berlin, but did encountered a few un-pleasantries. First, I was told the breakfast was included and clearly written so on my room key card, but they insisted on charging me upon checking out, even though it was their mistake; A lunch take-away was supposed to be included in the package, but not delivered; Toiletries were not re-supplied after cleaning, on second day i had to call service for body lotion; and then I can not find shampoo the following day.

Well placed for the Berlin Messedam exhibition centre, also Tegel Airport (€16 by taxi) and very close to the Ku'Damm. Good value for money. Only niggle were the in-room toileteries - bring your own!

HOTEL WAS AVERAGE ,ROOM CARPET A BIT SHABBY AND THE BATHROOM WAS TINY WITH A VERY SMALL SHOWER CUBICLE

It was our first time in Berlin, and I have to say that we really found the right hotel to explore and enjoy Berlin. It is quite close to the Zoo, meaning there are plenty of restaurants, bars, fashion shops and, even best, places to rent a bike at reasonable price. The hotel is functional, the rooms are clean and well sized (both bathroom and bedroom). It was a confortable stay and I have to say that the quality/money ratio is one of the highest I found in Europe. The staff is great. public transport cards can be purchased in the reception. The staff is welcoming, speak really good English and provide many suggestions on how to expend the day or find the right restaurant.

The desk staff in the hotel was extremely antagonistic towards the guests. They took 45 minutes to find my Hotels.com reservation. Every time I walked through the lobby the desk clerks were arguing with someone and the customer was always wrong. The hotel would not be half bad if they replaced the staff with people who were not trying to be obnoxious to the guests.

good for shopping

Comfortable hotel in an ideal location. Our second time at this Hotel

We were a party of four persons ( two couples) all AOP's. The hotel was very good indeed. Rooms were very clean, linen changed each day, with all staff being most pleasant and helpful. Breakfast was excellent with a good choice of hot and cold food. The hotel is situated approximately 200 metres from the nearest Metro sub-way station with bus stops also some 200 metres away. We would recomend the hotel and location 100%.

The front desk people, other than the night shift, were not helpful, and not friendly. They even gave me wrong directions..lol. The breakfast was TERRIBLE! It was 15 euros, and the eggs were disgusting. The hotel looks very nice, is very clean, but they tell you to watch your hangbags, even when they're in your room...when the only ppl other than yourself who access your room is hotel staff...okkkay. I'd recommend it only b/c its so nice and clean, and night staff was really helpful. Not too far from a train station either.

Great room for the money. Good location walking to bars and metro easy.

Hotel was very situatted about 5 minutes walk to the Metro staion ,and there was a very good selection of restraurants all within short walk , the rooms were comfortable nad the hotel cleaniness was very good

I used to live in Berlin when I was in the Army and went back to vist. The hotel is very close to major downtown attractions (Kudam) and tours. Also close to public transportation (u-bahn,s-bahn). I would stay there again.

Although Berlin was a great place to be, the Berlin Mark Hotel service was nothing spectacular, nor was it a great place to stay. I believe they may be renovating part of it, which I am completely fine with, however, our room had a toilet smell for the two nights that we stayed there. Thankfully we had windows to open to air it out when we walked the city. In addition, the toilet would not flush properly for both days. Overall, we were disappointed. It is in a great location though.

I was very surprised to find such outstanding quality and service in this Hotel, especially for the price. The staff was very helpful with the exception of one waitress who was very rude too me and acted as if I was bothering her. I guess nothing is 100%. The reception went out of their way to help me with maps and directions and were always curtious. Not to mention the beautiful decor and convienient location. I was able to walk to the train station every day and it's located within walking of resteraunts, shops, etc.

Easy to find hotel. Close to the U and S line which made getting around the city easy. Staff at Hotel very warm and inviting.

Was convenient to everywhere, and a very helpful staff

Hotel Mark is situated about 3 minutes walk from the shopping street of Kurfurstendam. Meineke Street itself is quiet and safe. There are 3 excellent restaurant in that street and a Lidl store for purchases such as water and English newspapers. The hotel staff are helpful and pleasant although some of the receptionists are slightly officious. I would recommend Mark Hotel Berlin and will certainly return.

The hotel is located right next to the Hard Rock Cafe and about one block away from the red light district. Luckily our room was on the back side of the hotel so we didn't get the noise from the Hard Rock. There were several other restaurants nearby as well. Parking was 13 euro/day and was in a garage. The garage did not have direct access to the hotel, and was about a 3-5 minute walk away. The train station was about a 10 minute walk. Breakfast was included in our room rate. The food was not spactacular, and the dining room was always packed. The second day we had trouble getting a table, and when we finally did, we had to grab silverware off of another table as ours was never cleaned. The room was a good size and the bathroom was sufficient with a large bathtub. Overall, not a bad hotel for the money.

high recommend. close to zoo. S-U bahn services to get around city..

have come to expect not too much from a hotel to be honest so i was very surprised at the high standard of the hotel mark. Extremely quiet even though our floor was full you never heard a thing which ment a good nights sleep. staff were so polite as are the german people in general . 2 mins from the main strip of shops and restraunts very similar to the champs ellisie .would highly recomend and return.

My sister and I have just come back from 3 nights at this hotel. The hotel was excellent. It was modern, very clean, the breakfast was good and we thought the location was good. The hotel is located just off the Kurstendamm, one of the main shopping streets) and was 5 minutes walk away from the bus and train station at Zoological Gardens, where we could catch the 100 bus using a 6 Euro Day Pass which took us to most of the main sights. There were 2 nice restaurants on the same street as the hotel, one an Italian and one a German Restaurant (can't remember the name but it had a blue awning). I would definitely recommend this hotel to anybody.

The foyer and dining area are very modern and plush, the room we had was a little disappointing in comparison but it was very clean, secure and basic. The breakfast was great, such a selection! We were also able to make our lunches from the breakfast which saved us money!

the hotel was clean and in a good location. handy for tube and shops.\the breakfast was very good and substantial.

FANTASTIC LOCATION, GREAT BREAKFASTS AND GOOD SIZED ROOMS. SEEMS LIKE THE LOCALS STAY THERE, SO IT MUST BE GOOD. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

This hotel is well situated only minutes from the main shopping area and underground stations . The rooms are a good size and were clean. My only criticism is the size of the shower room which was small but adequate. The lounge areas/breakfast rooms are modern and breakfast was very good with an excellent choice provided. Overall a very good hotel at a v good price.

This was a first class hotel with very friendly staff. It was very centrally located from the main attractions, and situated close many good reasonabily priced restaurants the expensive ones were there too. If there was a drawback was the fact that the hotel did not seem to have a restaurant of its own. There is a restaurant layout that servises the excellent breakfast, and seemed to have a lunch facility, but no night/evening restaurant. So if you wanted to 'stay in' for the night the cocktail bar was your only choice, I did not see any food on offer, while I was there for 5 days. Otherwise a very good place to stay

The Mark Hotel was very central and very reasonably priced. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

This place is something for the budget traveler with not too many expectations in terms of comfort. The location is excellent, that's if you like the city center west of Berlin (it's not in the buzzing humming trendy east!), the lobby looks nice, but the rooms are really really small. The bathroom is sub-standard, super small and does not deserve three stars. The mattresses are way too soft. The gap between the mattresses makes it extremely uncomfortable since you always fall into it. Plus the mattresses are not sitting within the frame, so they always get pushed apart. And who thought of placing the TV not in sight-line with your eyes when you are comfortably stretched out on your bed, but rather on the wall left to you, at the very far left corner, at a 90 degree angle from where you are lounging on the bed?! An espresso and a glass of water ordered at the lobby bar came as water only and without the espresso. The elevator caused quite a scare doing a 5 inch vertical bounce every time you stepped in. Overall, if all you are looking for is a bed and a place to shower, then this is not too shabby. But don't expect comfort and a memorable experience. Cheers!

This hotel is amazing...great room, great breakfast, and an amazing location. The room was as close to an American hotel as I have seen...flat screen tv, comfy beds, good size bathroom with a good hair dryer, and the breakfast had a lot of options and was constantly being refilled. The neighborhood was great...right next to the hard rock cafe and two metro stops !!!

close to metro point.zoo station one station away where guided walks begin.good value for money. four nice restaurants on street.

Excellent hotel, clean, warm reception, pleasant staff only too willing to help all with good spoken English. Location was good being only three minutes walk from the nearest Underground metro station. The hotel is local to main shopping and also only twenty minutes away by train from Alexandraplatz and Potsdamer Platz for Berlin wall & near to Checkpoint Charlie. Only one minor grumble was lack of staff at breakfast, a tad disorganised with Sunday morning being the worse, good food and choice though . Overall we consider it was a good hotel to stay due to location and modern clean rooms and facilities. Go for it!

Although just off the Ku'damm the hotel is in a quiet location.It is in walking distance of Zoo bus and train station (x9 to the airport, every 10 mins and only 2.10 euros). The hotel also gave us a day travel pass and Berlin public transport is excellent, you can get as far as Spandau for the best Weinachtmarkt. Breakfast can be very busy around 8.30 but it is included.There are plenty of good restaurants nearby.

great location, very close to Kurfürstendamm; clean rooms, rooms very functional; good breakfast, nice ambiente; would go back there anytime!

We only stayed one night, but were up-graded to a first class room at the front of the hotel, the room was large, bright and spacious. Very comfortable. Breakfast offereda good variety to suit eveyone, but was rather too busy for comfort

We loved the Berlin Mark Hotel. We stayed from 11/20/08 thru 11/27/08. The staff was wonderful, helpful and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed, including dining recommendations, train reservations and taxis. The room itself was small, but comfortable, with eider down comforters and flat screen tv's. The room itself was a bit warm and even though it was in the 30's outside, we had to open the window. Being close to the Hard Rock Cafe, there was a bit of street noise. The bathroom was small and the shower was the smallest I had ever seen, but all very adequate. The included breakfast was outstanding, with everything you could possibly want. We enjoyed our stay there and would definitely stay there again.

This is a very nice, renovated hotel one block off the Ku-damn in the heart of old West Berlin. Convenient location to U-Bahn, amenities, etc. Excellent value for the money. Older, renovated hotel so the rooms may be a little small. However, a very expansive breakfast buffet. I will definitely try to re-book on my next trip.
