The hotel is actually part of an old bank, with a gorgeous facade exuding charm and grace. Absolutely stunning. The interior is very nicely decorated, very classy ambience with top quality furnshings and wide corridors. There's a beautiful heated pool and well equipped gym with fruit and water. Arrived by taxi and the doorman already knew my name - no... more

My wife and I just returned from a long weekend in Berlin. Our stay at Hotel de Rome was basically flawless. We arrived early via an overnight flight from North America. We had requested early check in and our room was available on arrival. The entire facility is modern and clean - our 2nd floor room was very large. Nice... more

Plenty of pros with barely any cons. The pros - The hotel is located in former East Berlin near Checkpoint Charlie, the new Jewish holocaust memorial and right next to the Opera house and walking distance to the famous Brandenberg gate. The north facing rooms have a nice view of the plaza adjacent to the opera house. The room (206)... more

Beautiful women usually don’t have great personalities. They can rely on their looks, so they don’t need to be particularly intelligent, funny or interesting.

Checked in and they acknowledged I'd stayed before. Rooms are quite dark (I stayed in a classic room) but this is down to the decor which is on the whole... more

The Hotel de Rome is an absolutely fabulous property. I was (and still am) a fan of Rocco Forte's Brown's Hotel in London but I loved the Hotel de Rome even more. It's in the former Dresdner Bank headquarters on beautiful and serene Bebelplatz in the former East Berlin (though these days you can't really tell where the line once... more

We visited Berlin for the purpose of sampling Germany's Christmas markets in Dec 2008. We have a 3yr and a then-3month old so any mini-break choice would have to be carefully thought out. The Hotel de Rome impressed us by its friendliness and enthusiasm about hosting our young children. We booked directly with the hotel's staff, who excitedly told us... more
