We stayed here one night and really enjoyed the spacious double room overlooking the street. The value of this hotel is great, and the friendly service made it a really nice stay. The owner helped us find places to go in Berlin and the breakfast was very nice. A great value.

There is something about staying in a family run hotel, that if done well, is a more satisfactory experience than spending a great deal of money on an 'international' hotel. Novalis was such a place...Be warned it looks down at heel from outside, but bearing in mind all the positive Trip advisor reports we had read before hand, we didn't... More

My partner and I spent 118 Euros for two nights at this hotel. The room was quite small but it was clean and good enough for our short stay. Location is quite good, and isn't far from Metro if you wanted to get around quicker. Breakfast wasn't included which was a shame as there aren't many restaurants or coffee shops... More

My boyfriend booked this hotel for a trip to Berlin. The hotel emailed him to see what time we would be arriving as they don't have 24 hour check in- to guarantee someone was there for our arrival. Location: It cost us approximately 3 euros (ABC ticket) to get from the airport by train and underground to a stop just... More

Staff was pleasant,corteous and helpful.The deal was good,room well appointed and location near the U and S Bahn. We payed 6 euros for breakfast, a very good price for an exelent service. The lack of air conditioning may be a problem at the summer or hot days. There`s not a elevator[one floor upstair],and also there is not a safe or... More

We stayed here for one night. I did read some reviews before booking this hotel and I saw that some people had trouble checking in when they arrived late. The hotel actually emailed me asking me what time I would be getting in. I think that was responsible and considerate because they don't have 24hr service so I suspect they... More

Looking at the previous review I was concerned about having booked the Hotel Novalis. I am delighted to say that the Hotel was much better than expected. We had a large, clean, spacious room. Breakfast was available at 6 euros, but as we were only in Berlin for 3 days we ate on our travels. The owner is very welcoming,... More

The hotel is highly disappointing, as none of the previous reviews were describing the current reality of the hotel: no breakfast in the hotel, no reception, no luggage facility, no english spoken, no credit card accepted, only cash. I was capable to see the lady only at my arrival: despite the fact I asked by mail when reserving if breakfast... More

we stayed 3 nights in Hotel Novalis and we really enjoyed it! Hotel Novalis is directly to the main attractions. But yet in a calm street. The owner is very helpful. The room was big and very clean! We would come again!

We did a quick turnaround at this hotel and checked into another hotel because the Novalis was so depressing. We didn't think it was really a hotel because there was no reception desk and the property is unattended for much of the time. It's actually a hastliy converted East German apartment block. It's a long way out of town so... More
