Nice staff, good service but small rooms. Don’t expect dressers, kettle in basic rooms. For 1 or 2 nights it’s perfect. Breakfast was neat and location ambience and cleanliness was top notch. Views were amazing from the 18th floor. Overall great stay! Only 5 mins walk from public transport.

Great location by the Tiergarten; visited in December and there was a really good Christmas market on the doorstep. Hotel was nicely designed, clean, comfortable.
22.12.2025 Kim
Staff were so lovely. Room was clean and fresh towels were given everyday. Amazing location and we're booking again for next year. Only slight issue was lack of wardrobe/places to hang up clothes.
20.12.2025 Melvin
Excellent central location with roof bar and terrace. Rooms are large enough. My only suggestion is to put a small bench so that luggage doesn't have to be put on floor or bed.
15.12.2025 Victor
Great hotel and nice staff. The room was ready quicker than expected so we were let in earlier than expected which is always a nice touch. The hotel is also very well located.
04.12.2025 ADRIAN
The rooms needs complimentary water as a basic in this day and age.

The hotel lack of room facilities including no phone that i could see. No water . Kettle etc. I would have given a 7 ratings however staff at reception was exceptional and hanna positive attitude made me put a better rating in the end.

I'm giving it 4 stars because of the overall beauty, location and the experience. The size of the rooms are tiny, very minimalistic, with no dressers/closets
I lived out of my suitcase for days! 😩 But this is typical for this hotel chain, especially.

I went here with my three friends (we were four girls) and we had the best time! The rooftop has gorgeous views, great-quality drinks, and delicious cocktails. It’s such an international, chill spot—perfect for people from all over the world. We loved sitting there, sipping long drinks, gossiping, 🤭 and just enjoying the vibe. The staff were super kind and attentive, which made it even better.

This hotel provided a perfect home base during my trip. The room was spacious, clean, and quiet, ensuring restful nights. The bed was very comfortable, and the linens were fresh. I appreciated the complimentary bottled water and coffee maker in the room. The staff were courteous and went out of their way to accommodate my requests. Breakfast was served every morning with a wide range of choices, including fresh pastries, fruits, and hot items. The hotel is located near several restaurants and shops, making it convenient for meals and shopping. I also used the hotel’s laundry service, which was efficient and affordable. Overall, a wonderful stay.
