Hotels near Cottbus Zentrum, Berlin

Wer das Hotel bucht, der weiß eigentlich, dass kein großartiger ”Luxus” zu erwarten ist. So auch hier im ibis budget Berlin Hoppegarten. Allerdings war ich doch wenig erfreut über das, was eigentlich einfach sein sollte, nämlich ein wenig mehr auf Sauberkeit zu achten. Gleich als erstes fielen mir dicke Staubschwaden an der Wand vor der ”Pseudo-Klimaanlage” (wird unten noch erläutert) auf. Eigentlich unübersehbar und mir echt schleierhaft, dass eine Reinigungskraft diese einfach mal so ignoriert. Ein weiterer Punkt war der Teppichboden, der reichlich versifft und an den Rändern heftig verstaubt rüberkam. Ich habe keine Ahnung, wie man ein stark frequentiertes Hotel mit textiler Verlegeware austatten kann. Leider war auch am Kopfende des Bettes eine mit Teppich bezogene Kante, die stark verstaubt war... - eigentlich direkt neben meinem Kopf und darüber hinaus die einzige Ablagefläche für eine Uhr oder ein Handy, wenn man dafür nicht den Fußboden nutzen wollte. Die Fernbedienung des TV war klebrig und verstaubt und wurde meinerseits erst mal einer Reinigung mit Feuchttüchern unterzogen. Die Duschkabine und die Toilettenkabine waren komplett aus Kunststoff und recht wenig ”kuschelig”, also genauso, wie man es aus Hotels dieser Art kennt, aber so etwas weiß man. Schmutz etc. konnte ich nicht erkennen, alles dort soweit gut. Vor allen Dingen hat mich der Wasserdruck begeistert, der aus dem Duschkopf kam und wirklich ganz hervorragend war. Nix zu meckern... :-) Das Thema Handtücher müsste noch mal geübt werden. Ich hatte (als Einzelperson) zwei Duschtücher und zwei Badvorleger. Was ich vermisst habe, war ein ganz normales Handtuch. Eines der Duschtücher habe ich als Mücken-Jagdinstrument verwendet, da ich von diesen fliegenden Plagegeistern mehr als genug im Zimmer hatte. Für Gesicht und Hände habe ich daher einen der Badvorleger missbraucht. Die Klimaanlage hätte ich gut gebrauchen können, diese machte aber (selbst auf höchster Stufe) nur Laufgeräusche, jedoch gab es keinen entsprechenden Output. Ich hatte sie daher komplett ausgestellt. An einem Tag hatte ich das Frühstücksbuffet dazugebucht, was auch trotz der spontanen Entscheidung vor Ort kein Problem darstellte. Für 9,80 € war alles da, was man so zum Sattwerden brauchte, nur den Saft könnte man sich sparen, da dieser sich in kürzester Zeit in irgenwas Gelbes und etwas Wässeriges auseinanderdividierte. Kaffee gab es aus einem Automaten und es waren verschiedene Sorten/Herstellungsarten wählbar. Prima und völlig in Ordnung. Mein Fazit: Ich werde wohl nicht noch einmal buchen.

I recently visited this hotel with my boyfriend and I was very impressed. We arrived a little before check-in and we were allowed to go to our room. the room was very spacious with an extremely comfy bed and amazing shower. Also on the last day our flight was not for a while and were were allowed to wait in the lobby after checkout which had lovely sofas and seating areas. It was quiet and there were people working in there. The staff were very lobely and was great for the price.

Stayed here for 4 nights and had a room overlooking the Berlin Wall which was really nice. Room was spotless and cleaned every day and had everything you needed for a stay. Breakfast was really good with a wide selection on the buffet. Location was great with a bus stop right outside taking you to central Berlin and also the train station at Ostbahnhof which wasn't a far walk anyway, maybe 10 minutes. Mercedesplatz was just behind the hotel too which was really good and had a wide range of places to eat and drink and always a great atmosphere. wouldn't hesitate to stay here again when in Berlin.

The front desk staff was very accommodating in getting me into my room quite early after an overnight flight. Rooms leave much to be desired. Beds are very tiny - what a toddler would sleep on. Beds are very, very firm. Room and bathroom weren't very clean. I had my 'do not disturb' sign on my door and received a knock from housekeeping. Repeatedly. When I went to the door, thinking the sign must have fallen off, the housekeeper pushed past me, handed me my 'do not disturb' sign and insisted I replace it with the 'clean my room' sign. It is a 20-30 minute drive to city center. The area is questionable for walking around on your own as a female traveler.

Everything was perfect until the morning of departure, when the service staff knocked on the room door at 8.30 in the morning to tell me to check out because they had to clean, although on Booking, check-out was provided until 12 o'clock.It somewhat erased all the charm until then.

Changed to this hotel due to it's location. It's a few minutes walk from the sub way and 40 minutes walk to Aleksandraplatz

Das Hotel wirbt als IBIS Potsdamerplatz, hat aber rein gar nichts damit zu tun. Ca. 1200m entfernt, also näher am Checkpoint Charlie als am Potsdamer Platz. Ärgerlich war das, weil ich eine schwere Unfallverletzung habe und mich echt quälen musste, die 1200m mit Gepäck zu laufen.. Dafür können die Mitarbeiter im Hotel nichts. Sie waren allesamt freundlich und bemüht. Das Hotel ist sehr sauber, die Zimmer sind schlicht. Ist eben ein ”Budget” Hotel. Dafür war aber alles i.O. Das Frühstück ist preiswert und lecker, allerdings nicht besonders umfangreich. Für den Preis angemessen. Vom Hotel kommt man mit der S-Bahn gut weg und überall hin. Berlin eben.

I went to this hotel for a mid-week vacation with my lovely daughter. With an UBER it was about 10 Euro to get to the hotel. Check-in was smooth, the older man behind the desk wasnt overly friendly but rather efficient and that was fine. We paid the tourist-tax and got one room-key for our room. We paid online about 80 Euro a night and we got a room with three beds at the back. The room was clean and simple. A desk with a big-screen TV, a shower-room with a toilet and a wash-basin. The shower was ok but we didnt like the shower-curtains. Also the water would be warm for about five minutes but it didnt bother us. Everyday cleaning with new linen and towels. In the morning you can have breakfast but you have to pay for it. We didnt use it. The hotel is set conveniently in the middle of Berlin near Kurfurstenstrasse and Dam. Near the U-Bahn and busses.

Second time to be here. Location is not that far from the airport but the bus takes long wait. The staff told me the shuttle service is no longer available, so you have to take either taxi or bus. Room quality is good. The Vibes in the lobby is good too. Everyone else get a welcome drink in the bar.

By the time this incident happened, I have already completed a 4 days stay in the hotel and was willing to increase my stay. For that purpose, I went to Mrs. Hausweld and asked to please consult the availability and the price of the rooms for extra nights. In response, I was told that the final price, including the city tax for 3 additional nights would be 350 euros with breakfast included. Consequently, I was willing to go along with that reservation and requested to pay by card. Afterward, then Mrs. Hausweld offered me the POS terminal to go along with the payment, and the amount ascended to 419 euros. Due to that unexpected difference, I kindly asked for an explanation and was told that 419 euros were the final price, and if I was not happy with it I would need to leave the hotel immediately. As a result, I kindly refused to pay that amount and asked her to please consult the price for two nights instead of three. In response to that, the front desk manager told me that no more rooms were available for me and that I needed to check out now and leave the hotel. Following that conversation, I went on Booking.com and reserved a room for the same days, without breakfast, and surprisingly rooms were still available. Next, I went to the front desk and asked to please pay for my booking Mrs. Hausweld looked at me in an unfriendly manner and told me she could not find any reservation. After 5 minutes of searching, she could finally open my booking. Then, although I already provided a credit card in my booking, she asked me to show it to her because she was not believing that it was not mine. I answered that the card was in effect mine and offered her to have a look, but it did not have any numbers on it. So she got ahead to request me to write down my credit card details, including the CVV code, on a piece of paper as ”a security”. Afterward, I was asked again by her if I would like breakfast or not, despite I selected the no breakfast option on booking.com. A moment later I was offered the POS terminal to pay by card, which stated an amount 30 euros higher that the price I booked the room for on this site. Due to the reoccurrence of the same, previous situation again, I refused to pay and respectfully asked her why the price was higher again. Mrs. Hauweld answered in a very disrespectful manner that I asked her to have breakfast included and that I was confusing her again. After that situation, I kindly asked them to speak with her supervisor. She answered, that she had no supervisor and was the only person working in the hotel for the whole weekend. That experience left me in complete disbelief of her professionality and her being in that important role in the hotel. However, despite that bad experience with that particular staff member, I would like to note that the other front desk managers were very friendly and helpful at all times.
