Hotel Birgit Berlin Mitte

best

It Was a very nice Hotel with nice personal. The breakfast was nice at it was nice to sit in the garden and eat. The hotel was charming

I really want to like this place more. The garden and lobby are comfortable. However, the there are some things that were not so great. The biggest was that I had no water in the morning for a shower. This may have been due to my room being on the top floor and the hotel being fully-booked. The plumbing may have been struggling to get water up to the top floor when everyone in the hotel was taking a shower. Between 7:30-10 am the water would start as a trickle and drop to zero in a few minutes. I mean no water at all. When I mentioned this to the receptionist, she just shrugged. When I mentioned to the manager he said he would call the plumber. Nothing changed during my weeklong stay. I switched to showering in the evening and it was plenty of hot water then. So if you choose to stay here, consider getting a room on a lower floor. Otherwise, it is a charming hotel. But if the water system cannot handle a full hotel, then perhaps the hotel should have fewer rooms.

A great location! And the back garden is a lovely spot to sit after a long day of walking around. Sometimes the street can be a bit noisy late at night, but that just confirms that it is a lively area.

Front desk personnel very helpful and friendly and super nice.

The hotel is more like a back packers, when you walk in the first thing you see is a car in the lounge/bar area. There is an outdoor area which backs onto a kindergarten, and out the front is a primary school. There is an elevator to your room. The passage is dark and has a strong damp smell to it. The room is a good size, again quirky with a drum and a guitar as bedside tables. The bad was a little on the hard side and the pillows were very soft. The shower was very dangerous to get in and out of, you had to step up to get in and out, not good for older or handicapped people. Our aircon keeps on turning off and when it did work it leaked water onto the floor, we had to use our towels to soak the water up. When we reported this we were told by the rude reception lady that we shouldn’t keep it on all day and night. I did explain to her that we didn’t use it during the day as we weren’t there but she shrugged me off and did nothing about it. The bar is open all night and the male bar staff were very friendly and helpful.there are no washing facilities on offer. Breakfast was ok, the coffee machine was good. The location is ok if you wish to catch busses/ trains to the city centre. There are lots of eateries in walking distance. We stayed here as it was close to relatives.
