Derag Livinghotel Grosser Kurfuerst - Berlin

VERY close to underground station. Nice hotel, very good value for money.

Excellent location - only steps away from U-Bahn Station. Very comfortable hotel - would definitely return.

Nice clean hotel. Only a mile from major shopping and Restaurants. Highly recommend this Hotel. Nice proffessional staff.

Hotel is great for the price. Did not have the breakfast. Nice area and very close to main train station.

Very convenient hotel - close to the subway, large rooms, silent area and nice staff. Few cafees and nice restaurants nearby, but they are only 2 subway stops away.

loved the free minibar which was replenished with water and beer every day. the first day I arrived the hotel was a bit hot (no A/C) but after that when the outside temps were cooler I was comfortable. Very nice cozy room and reasonably priced indeed.

Nice hotel, had everythingone would need, the reception ladies were very helpful & courteous. Free internet connectivity would have made the stay perfect

Recommandable Hotel

This hotel is directly off the Markisches Museum stop of the U2 line of the U-Bahn. It's also about a 10-15 minute walk from Alexanderplatz, which is a more central U-Bahn station with a lot of shopping nearby. In terms of convenience for getting around Berlin, this hotel can't be beat. The hotel itself seems to have been recently renovated - the lights […] in the hall are on automatic sensor so they turn off until you exit your room or the elevator. The beds are a bit soft for my taste. In the room we had, there was a small fridge with 2 bottles of water and 2 bottles of beer, replenished every night we drank one - for free! The room was a double room with two twin beds and was a good size and generally very functional. My only negative is regarding the lack of air conditioning and general ventilation. The hotel has no A/C. By itself, this is not a deal-breaker. However, there is barely any air either! We called downstairs every night because we'd return and the room would be stifling, and we were instructed on how to turn on the "ventilation", which was pathetic. So instead we slept with the window wide open, which solved the temperature problem but was rather loud. Also, you get an hour of free wireless internet every night - it's pathetic speed, so don't count on using it for work or serious web surfing. My friend who accompanied me said the sauna facilities were also very nice, though I didn't see these. We also didn't eat the hotel breakfast - other reviewers mentioned it was overpriced, so we generally just ate elsewhere. Overall, this is a good place to stay, and I got a decent rate. If they fixed their internet access and their ventilation, I'd give it 5 stars all the way down. Read more

The hotel is centrally located, literally around the corner from a U2 subway station that accesses all the major sights, 3 minute walk to a supermarket, pharmacy, and internet cafe (not to mention the hotel's own, generous compared to similar places, policy of 1 free internet hour per day in their lobby), and a 5-10 minute walk to world-class museums […] of the Museum Island. The service team was helpful and spoke good English, the rooms were probably a bit less than 4-star quality, but very quiet and clean. Another bonus was the free water/ beer in the fridge ready for our arrival. Read more

We were very pleased with all aspects of our stay. The staff was always pleasant, courteous and quite helpful. The hotel is very well located for those who want to walk to explore Berlin. We are willing to walk quite long distances. If we did not want to walk, the U bahn station was right out the front door. We really were satisfied that we chose this […] hotel. There are many to choose from and we felt that nothing detracted from or choice. We really could not think of any improvement. Read more

The løcation ok by the river Spree - 10 minutes walk from Alexanderplatz.. 10 meters from nearest Metrostation. Very little traffic .. quiet area.

The hotel was quite nice and clean compared to what we found in this price range in other cities. I would definitely recommend it.

spacious accommodations, easy to reach the main attractions from the hotel, good price

An excellent hotel. Centrally located with a U-bahn (underground station right outside) The Hotel itself was fabulous. Courteous, helpful and polite staff. The rooms were very comfortable and cleanliness was excellent. I'd definitely go back

This modern hotel is kept immaculate, with an impressive foyer / atrium. It is excellently positioned right by an Underground Station, and 'Alex' is only 2 stations away, and all the central Museums, Galleries and Government buildings within a 15 minute walk.

Excellent hotel ideally situated very close to undergroud.Very helpful staff.

Probably one of the best value for money hotels in the centre of Berlin. Underground station literally on the doorstep making it convenient for trips to tourist sites.

I would recommend this hotel to anyone. Two free bottles of beer and water which was a lovely touch. Also recommend Milly's Cafe just up the street for breakfast.

Convenient location to subway and to center of Berlin Friendly service Very clean and cozy room

it was woderfull, close to main sights, to Alexander Pl., to the museums island, we walked to almost everywhere, clean and comfortable. i recommend with pleasure

had a fantastic stay at the derag

I enjoyed my stay at the Derag Livinghotel very much. An underground station and a bus station are directly at the hotel but in under 15 minutes you can also walk to nice areas with restaurants and shops. The service was excellent and the room was very comfortable. The buffet for breakfast really left no wishes unforfilled. I can definitely recommend […] this hotel. Read more

Nice and cosy hotel. U-Bahn right behind the corner. Peaceful neighborhood. High class cleanliness at the hotel. Sauna and spa section should see a "face lift". No salmon at the breakfast buffet.Over all very good. Service with a smile - luxury U don´t get too often in European metropolitan hotels.

As there was no air conditioning in my room, the temperature was unbearable. There was unfortunately no possibility to reduce the temperature.

The staff was extremely friendly and happy to speak English. The rooms were clean and there were two free Beck's beers in the fridge every day. The location is great and you can walk to many places or hop on the metro literally in front of the building.

Here is the best place you should stay~ Best quality of service, room, condition, and also location. Here is safe and convenient for every tourists who want to take a rest and have a look of Berlin city. I will choose it again if I go Berlin.

We were surpriced that it was such a good place for that kind of money. Room was nice, great bathroom, impressing entrance and reception. Very kind staff. Great vienamese restaurant just oposite the hotel. And we really loved that is was away from all the touristed areas, but still only 5 min walk to Alexander Platz. The only negative thing to say, […] was that the breakfast was extremly expensive. The breakfast was good. They had everything one could ask for at their buffet. Just too expensive. So just walk down the street to have breakfast at a cafe instead. Read more

The hotel was surprisingly good. The staff at the reception was very friendly and helpful. The rooms were nice and adequately spacious. With regards to the hotel our only concern was the room service. That was surprisingly lacking. The bathroom was not clean enough (it wasn't dirty but definitely not 4 star clean). There was a weird odour in the bathroom […] and when we reported it to reception, they immediately changed our room, but the next one wasnt much better. The bathroom smelled kind of musty instead of fresh. The toiletries were not replaced after it was used by the previous guests. The shower gel dispenser was almost empty, empty packets with no shower caps. The room service was indeed disappointing. This hotel instead of having a mini-bar, offers the guests 2 botles of beer and 2 bottles of water free of charge everyday. But when we checked in, the minibar had just one bottle of beer in it.About 2 hours later they came and replenished it. Also little things like the stationary weren't replaced after use by the previous guests. In short house keeping not up to the mark. But the best thing about the hotel we found was the location. From the airport, you can take a train to Alexanderplatz station. It takes about 25 min costs 3 euros per person. From there actually the hotel is about 12 min walk, but you can take the tube to Märkisches Museum station, this is right beside the hotel, this will cost about 2.30 euros per person. The hotel location was excellent to take in the sights of Berlin. It is actually possible to do a walking tour and see the main attractions. Would definitely recommend. Read more

Excellent hotel with friendly service. Right by U-Bahn station so ideal for getting around the city.

We really enjoyed our stay at Derrag Living Hotel. The rooms were beautiful and the staff very helpful. The location was great as it was right beside the U. I would definitly stay there again and would recommend to others.

Staff at the hotel were really amazing and would do anything they would to help. Only issue was that one of our rooms was extremely hot, and this is decemeber in Berlin! One of our party had a street facing veiw and that was fine as the window opened, but the other room was facing the inside of the hotel and was extremely hot in the night. I would […] definately stay again (if the room faced the street!) as I can't fault the staff or the value for money. Read more

Really nice hotel, affordable, friendly staff, free beer and water in your room, tea making facilities, excellent location - ubahn right on the doorstep. Not many restaurants/bars in the immediate neighbourhood - but this does mean that it is nice and quiet.

Overall I was positively surprised by the value for money we got from this hotel. I would definitely recommend it to friends. - The room was spotless - staff was friendly - Sauna/spa/fitness were free of charge and a welcome addition - Daily free bottle of beer and water in the room - Thought the direct environment of the hotel isn't very inspiring, […] it is perfectly located to start your walk around the city sights. Furthermore there is a u-bahn station right in front of the hotel may you wish to get somewhere more quickly. - There is a parking garage in the vicinity Read more

The hotel is really well placed and within walking distance of many great restaurants and sights. The main point is its stuck in the 90's, dated decor but still very comfortable. For the price and the location it can't really be faulted, but for appeal its neither modern or old fashioned. Staff are very smiley and friendly/helpful. We are both in […] our 20's and were very much the youngest guests, however I suspect most people our age would stay in cheaper more trendy parts of the city.... Read more

Very friendly and helpful staff. Comfortable, clean rooms, a Ubahn station right on the doorstep and close to most of the central sights/places to visit.

I'll make it easy on myself and just say that I had absolutely no complaints about the hotel. It was in a central location, the staff was very warm and welcoming. The room was clean, tidy, comfortable, and spacious.

My wife and I and 2 adult children arrived in Berlin for the next part of our European adventure. The courteous staff greeted us and spoke english. They provided us with directions and assisted my son in finding a hospital as he required medical attention. Our accomodations were outstanding and perfectly clean. The underground subway was just outside […] the hotel which made sightseeing very easy. This is our first visit to Berlin from Canada and thanks to the Derag Hotel and their staff we would definitely return. I selected this hotel based on its reviews on Tripadvisor and they were absolutely correct. Read more

We really enjoyed our stay in The Derag and would highly reccommend it to others. Excellent location and value for money. Spotlessly clean and comfortable. Gym/Sauna and steam room facilities availabe. Fridge in room.The staff were very welcoming and on our depature day were able to leave our cases and when we returned in the evening were allowed showering […] facilities before travelling. Only complaint is that there is no air-conditioning which made nights uncomfortable and difficult to sleep. Read more
