Ibis budget Hotels in Berlin

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 paid 70 Euro per night for a 2-night stay in Berlin. It's very close to public transport, so you can easily jump on a train to the city center. The staff was very nice in letting me check in long before the actual check in time, because my room happened to be available already. The shower was not ideal, as it's small and it was a pain to get (and keep) the right temperature. Apart from that, I do recommend staying at this hotel. :)

The Ibis Budget Hotel Alexanderplatz is located within walking distance of Alexanderplatz in the heart of Berlin and is easily accessible by public transport, making it a good option for travelers who want to explore Berlin. As the name suggests, the hotel is a budget hotel and the emphasis is on a simple and affordable stay without anything else that drives the cost up. Our guest room was therefore very simple and consisted of a double bed with a bunk bed, a single desk, TV, toilet and shower. The room had fairly well-functioning air conditioning and appeared to be clean and well maintained. The shower and sink were in the bedroom itself, while the toilet was in a separate cubicle. This was a somewhat special solution and had not worked for everyone. The mattress in the room was very hard, but good to sleep in. Bed linen and towels were clean and in good condition. The staff who checked us in and out seemed professional, but I missed something more smiling, commitment and enthusiasm for us as guests. The hotel offers breakfast for an additional fee. The breakfast was served as a buffet and had a good selection of cold cuts, cheese, jam, cereals, salads and bread. In addition, juice, coffee and tea were available. There were no hot dishes on the buffet and we missed eggs. All in all, the stay was as expected in relation to the fact that this was a stay at a budget hotel. However, a little more enthusiasm and commitment from the staff could have raised the experience a couple of notches.
