Attractive room rate and ease of payment.
- Deirdre (10/5): - Really good value; location in easy walking distance to many landmarks & public transport; small room but perfect for a few days as a couple; clean, quiet, helpful staff. Would return
- Abraham (10/5): - To be honest, I was not expecting this to be such a nice experience in a hotel. The rooms were very clean and very comfortable, the location is amazing, you can walk anywhere and you have super easy access to the train. I highly recommend if you’re visiting Berlin, this is a great choice..
- Rian (8/5): Great location decent room - The hotel is located just outside the mall of Berlin. Great location and proximity to major tourist attractions. The room was pretty small. Just the bed and a tiny desk. The shower had foldable glass doors as part of the bathroom.
- Trystan (10/5): Nice hotel - Great welcome. Good room size. Generally clean. Check out was a bit more disappointing with a member of staff who clearly does not like mornings
- Aniko (4/5): - I did like the central location of the building.
However, it is poor value for money in terms of service provided.
- Anubandha (6/5): - Didn't have water in the room or hotel phone
- Justin (10/5): - Great location
- K (8/5): - Great location for sightseeing. Andrea on reception was very helpful. Some sights were walkable. If not good transport links near by. Places for coffee/sandwiches near by. Only hesitation members of the public can visit the bar and have access to the floors of the hotel. Also rooms do not have a safety deposit box .
- Andrew (10/5): - I was not sure what to expect with motel in the name. Probably one of the nicest rooms I’ve stayed in Europe for the price point. Can’t beat the location.
- Fang (10/5): - Great location with subway and lots of restaurants. Would be better if equipped with kettle and iron.
- Daniela (10/5): - Muy buen sitio
- Nicholas (10/5): Great stay - It was great. The location is perfect and the rooms were awesome.
- James (8/5): - Good value
- Gary (10/5): Great stay - Great modern hotel in the perfect location. Close to transport links and a lot of the major attractions.
- Miriam (10/5): - I loved the location of this hotel, nearby the subway and a lot to do around.
- Roxanne (10/5): - It is a perfect location to explore many parts of Berlin. Friendly and welcoming staff.
- Warren (10/5): - I love all the Group hotels i have sayed at. This is my 4th to date
- George (10/5): - Perfect location to see most attractions. Quiet at night or the hotel is extremely well insulated! Everything is new and looks great. Very comfortable bed. Big shower! Was perfect!
- Rodney (10/5): - Our trip to Germany was planned just by dates. The rest was scheduled by my three day Symposium for work and the rest was day by day.
We explored a great deal of Germany and ended our trip in Berlin. The booking process was easy and the room was as advertised.
Location was downtown and easy to trains and walkable to most sites.
There was a large shopping mall next door which offered a fun walk around and lots of restaurants.
The staff was nice and professional. The rooms were clean and the view of the plaza below with outdoor seating and a playground was nice. Realized it’s in the third floor of the building over the shopping mall.
Definitely worth the visit.
- Nicholas (10/5): - Very well priced and located within a couple of minutes walk of Potsdamerplatz and the Berlin Mall shopping centre. Nearest medium price hotel for the Berlin Philharmonie too. 5-10 minutes walk to Brandenburg Gate, Unter den Linden, river and the Reichstag.
- Binh (8/5): - Hotel was clean and located in convenient location
- Deborah (10/5): Great hotel! - Best night sleep! Great mattress and pillows. The bed was a double bed and not two single beds put together which made it even better. The room and bathroom were both very clean. Room temperature was perfect. Very quiet. The only downside was that there isn’t a safe in the room. The hotel location is perfect, 3 minute walk to the underground U and S and it is only around 14 minute walk from the Brandenburg Gate.
- Thomas (10/5): - Efficient and early check-in allowed. Option to choose if you would like cleaning. Seperate duvets/mattresses not ideal for 'king bed'. Well located with lots of sights and transport nearby.
- Dawn (10/5): - The location was prefect !
- Clive (8/5): - Good value, clean and comfortable. Great location.
- KARLA (10/5): Perfect - The staff was amazing. The room was beautiful and so comfortable. The view from my room was great.
- Monica (10/5): New Years Eve solo trip - Nice hotel in a great location to public transportation and the hop on hop off bus. Breakfast was not robust but had deli meats and breads, fruit and granola. Vegan spreads and alternative milks available. Staff are nice. Stayed on 3rd floor where dining is located but no bother with noise since I was down the hall. Water gets hot and shower pressure is great. Comfortable stay right by the mall (though closed NYE weekend!)
- John (10/5): - Super modern looking hotel with the typical Motel One blue theme. Kind of MCM design, but more modern. Super close to the Brandenburger. Gate and the Jewish Memorial. The U ubahn is a block away. Nice place.
- Timothy (6/5): Disappointed with the German version of MotelOne - First the good things. Very good location with excellent transport links and a very good selection of restaurants within a few minutes walk. The bed was comfortable and bathroom easy to use.
However, the room layout was terrible. There were no space beside the bed to put anything, no safe and no in-room refreshments. We've stayed in Motel-One in the UK and been very happy. The German version was a disappointment both here and in Leipzig. We would not choose German Motel-One again (although very happy with the UK version)
- moshe (8/5): good - A small room, without a closet, without a safe and refrigerator, carpets from wall to wall - not recommended for those allergic to dust. Location right inside the Berlin Mall. The trip to the airport involves changing trains at least once.
- Angela (8/5): - Definitely walkable to most of the sights we wanted to see.
Hotel was clean, no safe in room or tea making facilities.
- Elena (10/5): - All is really perfect . Motel One as usual was a good choice
- Anna (10/5): - Great stay, really nice room and perfect location
- Verified traveler (2/5): - The room came with a queen bed that only had a twin cover.
- Juho-Matti (10/5): - .
- Alejandro (2/5): Room or closet? - Standard rooms are extremely small, more like a closet than a room. Very little room for clothes and no place to leave your bags. It could be ok for one night stay, no for a longer trip.
- Alan (10/5): - All of the staff we met were excellent; extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Will definitely stay there for future Berlin trips!
- Peter (8/5): Fantastic location! - Great location. Very clean. Easy access to public transportation. I would definitely use this hotel again. It has several locations throughout the city.
- patrick (8/5): - Great location, easy parking in the mall garage and walking distance to many attractions as well as the subway and even the Big Bus stop. Staff was friendly and spoke English well. Breakfast was nice with a variety of food.
- Alice (2/5): - Hotel is in a good location but there was construction happening when we stayed which was disruptive. Rooms were small and it felt like it was unclean, very dusty.
- Ishaan (10/5): - Superbly located next to Potadamer Platz station. Very friendly staff, they were accommodating to all my needs. Will happily stay again
- Benoit (10/5): - Really nice place to stay. Nice room, clean place. Close to everything. Would go back..
- Elizabeth (8/5): Funky hotel centrally located, well priced - Modern funky hotel right in the heart of the cuty. Walking distance from most attractions and good selection of bars and restaurants. If you're a shopper its actually right in the Mall of Berlin.
The staff were helpful and efficient. Room was a good size, but clothes hanging spaceis a little limited if youre not a light traveller but this was not a problem for us. The bar atea is a lovely spot to chill with a coffee or drink after a long day enjoying the sights of Berlin. If we returned to the city we would happily stay at this property again.
- Claudia (10/5): - Good location and good breakfast
- Jordi (10/5): - Awesome location. Incredible clean. Extremely new conditions
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very clean, nice and in great location )
- Michael (8/5): - Everything was just OK. Fine for the money..
However NO Safe in the room.
There's isnt a bin in the room either..
The lift kept breaking leaving us to work up and down 7 sets of stairs for 2 days
- Oleg (8/5): - Not very comfortable beds and pillows.
And very small blankets
- Verified traveler (6/5): Vague expectations - Just ok. No cups for water, bar soap, or wash-cloths in room. Maybe thats what MOTEL means in Europe? IDK.
- Meng Ruey (10/5): Great location, nice hotel - Great location, nice hotel, I have all I need for a short stay in Berlin, will recommend it!
- Carene (10/5): - I was welcomed warmly, I got there a bit early and he was able to accommodate me. Very nice gentleman, don’t remember his name. The room was perfect, it was simple, updated and clean. Definitely would stay again!!!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Bed should be a bit more firmer
- Verified traveler (8/5): Good motel-Good Location in Berlin - Motel is inside the Mall of Berlin. Room is small and clean. Location is good, close to the metro station, Sony Center, Brandenburg Gate and restaurants.
- Daniel (10/5): Wonderful City Stay - Nice new rooms. Parking was a little tricky but there was very good signs pointing you to the hotel under the Mall. Elevator directly to your room from the parking garage. The check in guy was excellent, very helpful and wanted to ensure I had a nice stay. A/C could have been colder. Wi-fi was good. Would stay here again
- WILLIAM (10/5): - Very good value for price
- Verified traveler (8/5): Good room but too hot in the summer - Location was ideal for us and the staff were friendly (upper level staff moreso than front lobby staff). However, a few complaints is that the a/c ended up being very weak (seemed they capped it despite putting a control in the room) that we were still so hot no matter what coolest setting, which made the long stay quite uncomfortable during the summer nights. Another issue was that a weird smell permeated from the bathroom, and strong cologne/fragrance in the bedroom.
- Cathy (10/5): Great hotel in super location - Wonderful location, clean updated, small but everything you need. Charming wide open grass area to relax outside. Very nice breakfast and bar and you can sit inside or outside to enjoy your time here
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Good location if prepared to walk inner berlin to site see.
- Dave (10/5): Great location - Great modern hotel in a great location.. Close to restaurants and shopping but also a short walk to areas including the Brandenburg Gate, friendly and helpful staff.. Couldn't fault it
- Steven (8/5): Good stay - Very good location, clean but very compact room. Nice and quiet rooms in a busy district. Links to shopping mall with pleany of eateries. V close
to tube and many attractions.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Great location, streamlined rooms. - room a bit small, but great location, clean rooms, nice staff. Amenities are very streamlined (no coffee maker, no ironing.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - This is a very comfortable property with such a nice and helpful staff on many levels. Motel One is a great chain. Some things to be aware of are that there’s no room safe, no phone to call downstairs if you need something (you have to go to the desk and they will help you), and no room service. It’s not that level of service. But the lounge is lovely, breakfast is very nice, and it’s very clean with elegant yet funky decor.
I can’t say enough about the two lovely people working the desk late on Christmas Eve. I returned after 11pm with the zipper of my coat seriously stuck high up, and nothing I did for an hour helped. I couldn’t get out of it, and even though at that point I was willing to ruin the coat, I needed to try and not break the zipper because there wouldn’t be any stores open on Christmas to buy another one. I went down to ask for a scissor to at least try to cut through the stuck material, and after a while I was even willing to break the zipper, but the two hotel employees wanted to help me with it, and they worked really hard to get me unstuck, and didn’t even break the zipper! That was above and beyond
what they needed to do, and I’m very grateful.
- Petr (8/5): - Great location, rooms at a smaller side but for a great price.
- Gerald (10/5): - Everything os on place... Great accomodation and location.
- alicia (10/5): Pleasant surprice - Excellent service.
- Peter (10/5): - A fantastic hotel well located to the vibrant Potsdamer Platz and Unter den Linden and some of the must see German capital sights. I give this hotel top marks. We were offered the breakfast buffet, great value great selection it really got us started for the day. The hotel's decor is just modern classic look - loved it. Motel One is my pick in Berlin on my next trip.
- Angie (10/5): Nice hotel - good local, nice area, close to the mall and attractions.
- Brett (10/5): Fantastic location at a reasonable price! - This hotel is perfect for someone who wants to be close to all the main tourist attractions at a reasonable price. The hotel is next to the Mall of Berlin and busy Potsdamer Platz train/bus station and the Reichstag, Brandenburg Gate, Checkpoint Charlie, Jewish memorials, Sony Centre etc are all within an easy 10 minute walk. The room was fairly small and economical but super clean, The hotel has a very nice breakfast/bar area overlooking the Bundesrat and while the breakfast didn't include any hot items it had cereals, cold meats, cheeses, breads, pastries etc at an affordable price while the lounge offered drinks and some snacks until late in the evening. The free WIFI was also very fast.
- William (10/5): Great Location & Friendly Staff - Located on the side of Berlin Mall it has great transport links with the U & S Bahns only a few minutes walk away. The area itself is clean & quiet at night.
The rooms make great use of space & are ideal for a short city break. I had a room with terrace, you don't get much of a view but great to have some outdoor space.
Sites like the Brandenburg Gate, Checkpoint Charlie, Topography of Terror are all within easy walking distance.
All the big stores & supermarkets, including malls in Berlin are closed on Sundays, so if you need anything get it beforehand.
- Al (10/5): - Great hotel in a great location. Everything was impeccably clean and like new. The staff was friendly and helpful. Nice decor and design. I even liked the salt water fish tank screen saver on the television. The room was a bit small, but still very comfortable and worth the trade off.
- Emma (10/5): Nice, clean and comfortable hotel, good location. - I need to stay in the area fairly often for work, and many of the local hotels can be very expensive. Someone recommended Motel One and I was able to get a room there.
Check in was smooth and easy, very friendly and welcoming staff. Lobby is simple but clean and bright.
Rooms are exactly as you'd expect, small and functional, but very well thought out with great use of space. It was clean and had plenty of electrical sockets and a small desk to work at if you need.
Internet was easy to use and quick, plenty fast enough to stream a film for example.
Bathroom again is small, but well laid out and with everything you need, nice powerful shower.
Didn't try the breakfast this time, but heard from colleagues that it is good.
- Donna (10/5): A Very Good Choice for a central hotel - The Motel One at Potsdamer Platz is a good choice for a medium priced hotel. It’s very close to U Bahn and S Bahn stations so you can go anywhere in the city quickly. The hotel
Is clean, modern and comfortable. The staff is helpful but there is no concierge service or assistance booking tours if that’s something you need. It is adjacent to the very large Mall of Berlin, an unexpected bonus. Potsdamer Platz has lots of restaurants and bars with plenty to do in the evenings.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very central hotel. Room small and basic but just fine for us.
- Anne (10/5): Great, comfortable, stylish hotel. - Great location in Mall of Berlin. Completely quiet. Very nice lounge, gathering area ( level 3 away from street). Great breakfast. Outdoor area to enclosed park area. No street noise at all. And reasonable rates. Close to transportation. Loved it. Would stay again.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Pleasantly decorated and situated. Nice view from our room. Bed and pillow comfortable.
- Sandra (10/5): Great hotel, highly recommend it! - Was so pleased we decided to stay at this hotel. The staff could not have been more helpful or friendlier, especially Sebastian who really went above and beyond for us. The hotel was spotless, bed really comfy and a great breakfast and bar. Location was right next to the Mall of Berlin whic is a huge shopping centre, and walking distance to a lot of the famous sights, checkpoint charlie, berlin wall, Brandenburg gate, Tiergarten etc. Would definitely stay here again and am hoping to come back!
- Tim (10/5): Great location - Great location steps away from Potsdamer Platz. Simple, comfortable, quiet hotel.
- Susan (10/5): Can't beat the location. - A nice room at a good price in a brilliant location.
- Daniel (8/5): - overall a nice hotel right on the Berlin mall walking distance from everywhere.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Great value - Great value hotel with easy access to all attractions and really comfortable beds!
- Susan B. (10/5): Plan on using again! - Excellent. Would definitely stay in again.
Great location to public transportation.
Can easily walk to several different tourist sites - Holocaust memorial, American Embassy, B gate, etc (see Rick Steve's guide).
We also walked to Check Point Charlie.
Plenty of places to choose from for eating.
- Neal (10/5): Great new hotel! - Nice clean and new room. Breakfast SHOULD be included.
- Louisa (8/5): - Excellent but lacking in some basic facilities eg iron! The alarm on the TV was also not very easy to use and I consider myself quite technical!
- Johanne (10/5): - Very nice stay
- Gyorgy (10/5): Comfortable room in a central location - This hotel is located on top of a shopping mall. The room is small but enough for a single person. Window is facing Checkpoint Charlie, you can quickly check whether Welt balloon is operating.
- Ann (10/5): Great hotel in a great location - Very comfortable
- Cheryl (8/5): Good room with great location - Overall, we had a great stay at this hotel. The room is small, though this was expected. I wish there was a closet, but the designer made good use of available space (for example, wall shelves and bars to hang clothing). The staff was very friendly at check in and helpful throughout our trip with giving directions, arranging taxis, etc.
This hotel is practically inside the Mall of Berlin, which is convenient if you want a quick bite to eat at the food court or access to an ATM. There are also two grocery stores on the lowest level.
The location is fantastic for transportation within Berlin, about one block from S and U trains at Potsdamer Platz.
- ronald (8/5): Great Value - Great value. Needs room safe though.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Excellent location. Clean, comfortable - Good comfortable hotel. Well located. Bufet breakfast (additional cost). Well maintained. Clean.
