I stayed in this hotel on business this March. The hotel looks not bad. Unfortunately, the staffs at Reception are horrible, extremely unfriendly and impatient. I was asking them where are nice places to visit at Berlin, and the lady at the reception was very impatient and did not want to tell me anything.........Terrible! And, the hotel is too expensive.... more

I stayed in January 2009 for a conference on site. The hotel is very large but manages to keep a friendly feel. There are several wings, with up to 18 floors. I had a single (twin) room, which was clean and pleasant, on floor 12 of wing 2. Not too large, and nothing special, with simple modern furniture and the... more

Without doubt this is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. I travelled with my wife who was a delegate at a conference. We paid extra for a larger room with more facilities. What these 'extra' facilities were we could not tell. The room was clean but very bare and only furnished with very basic cheap furniture First thing... more

The Estrel is simply my favorite hotel. I come to Berlin every few months for a convention, and always chose to stay at this hotel. The prices are VERY fair compared to the other hotel prices in Berlin. The hotel features everything I need, restaurants, bars, and even live entertainment. The location next to the water and the train station... more

We stayed at the Estrel because we were attending a trade show in Berlin and this hotel was recommended by the organisers of the show. As we wanted some extra nights in Berlin, We arrived 2 days before the trade show started. This was a real eye opener. In the days before the main trade show guests arrived, a beer... more

The Estrel was a very pleasant surprise, after our booking at a more ''central'' Berlin hotel was not accepted at our arrival. Nice, clean, quiet rooms, new and enormous receptio - dining - bar area, excellent breakfast, and all at a very competitive price. We stayed at the Estrel during a business trip for an Exhibition and we thoroughly enjoyed... more

We stayed her ewhilst travelling on an Archers/Cosmos Eastern European tour in June 2008. As I did not know the actual cost of a room I could not assign value for money because expected quality must be related to price. This hotel was perfectly adequate for a good quiet night’s sleep in a large air- conditioned room with comfortable big... more

I stayed here because of the convention that was located in this hotel. What a mistake. There was nothing good about place, nothing. Location, horrible bordering on dangerous. Make no mistake, you are a captive here ant they charge for simple thigns like a glass of water accordingly. And that's only when you can get serive to begin with. Service,... more

We stayed here one night before jumping on a train to Prague. The hotel is okay. The rooms are cheap looking Ikea decorated things. Trendy but cheap. The beds are not comfortable. They are thin and hard and the pillows are super thin; like putting a sheet under your head as a pillow. The bathrooms were clean and nice. Room... more
