Hotels near Institut St. Philipp Neri - Kirche St. Afra, Berlin

Staff were very helpful and polite. The room was clean and quite spacious. They have a cute bar/ cafe downstairs to chill. Restaurants and cafes are literally 2 mins walk away. A 5-7 mins walk to the mall and metro/ train station. Just one point to highlight, during the night, the area can be poorly lit so single travelers are advised to plan accordingly. Otherwise, no complaints as such!

We were in a couple for a dance competition, it looks out of hand but with close two stops of the metro and one of the station. The check in the automatic check is very cold when you arrive, because you don't find personal welcome but there are breakfasts in the morning and are kind and available.

I absolutely LOVED my 3 night stay at The Circus Hotel. I seriously didn’t want to leave! I was delighted when Marianne checked us in and told us we had been upgraded to one of the best rooms (since it was our honeymoon)! The whole room was fantastically perfect; we had a private terrace to view the city and drink our sparkling wine, the bed was VERY comfortable, everything was spotlessly clean, and the shower was large and easy to use with great water pressure. There was plenty of information about the hotel and the city within the resources in the room, which really appealed to me as an anxious traveller. Tobi and the staff capably took care of 5 little ducklings that jumped from the roof to our terrace when we were relaxing in the room! After being very tired of continental breakfast at other hotels across Europe, we were so happy to eat in the Circus’ lounge in the morning. We ate our favorite breakfasts there every morning, served by the lovely Luiza and Tay. The hotel’s lounge/lobby area is so perfectly eccentric and funky, with very fun furniture and lighting fixtures. We also really really enjoyed Lost My Voice bar! We drank so many sinfully delicious cocktails there in the evenings. I 100000% recommend The Circus Hotel. The value was even great; I paid $900 for three nights, SO many cocktails, and 3 breakfasts for two people.

What a find! Not the best of areas but the hostel is very modern, super clean and tidy. Breakfast on offer too. Great selection of cold meats and cheeses. Croissants, yoghurt, cereals etc. Free coffees and teas from the urn although ' fancy' coffees and teas were available from behind the reception. Super WiFi. 5 min walk to the u bahn station. Great location. I will definitely be back.

The hostel is very dirty. All the surfaces are sticky. There is a terrible stench in the rooms, toilets, corridors and lobby. Things forgotten by the previous tenants are lying around until they are thrown away by the current tenants. Mattresses are stained with brown stains, possibly menstrual blood (I was in the women's room). The pillows are crumpled and terribly uncomfortable. The beds stand so you can't fully open the window to air it out. The lobby is very noisy and smelly too, apparently there is no ventilation or it is blocked. Absolutely not recommended, even for 25€ a night! It's too much for this place.

The location of Hilton Berlin is fantastic and the exterior of the hotel plus the lobby is very beautiful. Very walkable location with many surrounding dining and sightseeing options. Overall, housekeeping was good. The rooms run fairly small and look dated, so value for money is not that great. Bathroom is clean but not very well-maintained, especially the toilet. The check-in concierge staff were ok but I would expect friendlier and more proactive service for the price we were paying and being a diamond member as well. The staff who was a blonde lady with glasses checked me in and out and was the friendliest staff i encountered during my stay. Rarely did the other staff smile or greet us when we walked past them and they generally did not have great customer service skills, and generally just unfriendly. The front door concierge and door staff were much friendlier and greeted us more than the check-in staff. I also had a very terrible experience with the night security staff when my friend and I came back to the hotel around 6 am after a night out. We walked in and were stopped by a man who was not wearing any uniform, or any attire to signal he was working at the Hilton, and in regular clothes, he was a bit hard to understand because he had a thick accent, and I thought he might be another patron at the hotel or a taxi driver, so I politely smiled at him and said “no thank you” and walked towards the elevator. He got extremely angry, began shouting at me, and said he was a worker there and showed me his keys with a Hilton keychain. He wanted to verify that we had a room key. While we were taking out the key, he was calling me rude and dismissive and that I was a terrible person. It was so jarring because there was no need to be that rude, he was acting like I shooed him away when I’m reality it was a miscommunication. He then went into the back of the concierge to complain about me loudly, didn’t even wait till I was out of earshot. It was hard to identify him as a staff, much less security, and I didn’t need to be scolded like a child. Overall, very unprofessional and made the remainder of my stay feel much more sour. I can look past the dated rooms because I know that is out of the staff’s control at that point of time. But unprofessional and unfriendly staff make the value of my stay and diamond member status much worse.

This hotel lived up to my expectations. It was well located, spotless, the breakfast was excellent and the atmosphere healthy and positive. I must thank the Young lady on reception, the morning of my departure, Sunday morning, 21st May, who went to great lengths to help me get the right bus to the airport, and then the correct platform for the last bit of the journey. Her instructions were faultless. The bar, late night, was busy and the service, fast and friendly.

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.

Although the location and price for this hotel is great, the rooms themselves were disappointing. When entering the room for our first night I was immediately concerned about the room, with some wall fittings falling off, what seemed to be a lack of smoke alarm, one small bedside lamp and a tv relatively small and far from the bed along with only one alternative chair. Despite these shortcomings the room is quite spacious and beds relatively fine, with somewhat good soundproofing on the windows to stop the noise of the busy streets. Although these negatives would have been outweighed by the positives, we also had no room cleaning our entire 6 night stay which was highly disappointing. We would be awakened by the cleaners relatively early in the morning however usually we slept through this first attempt to clean. Most hotels would assume someone is asleep and come back and clean after they have gone about their day however this did not occur for our entire trip duration. To make matters worse we had no toilet roll replacements and had to source our own. In addition, on our 5th night they did Infact enter our room, they did Not take our overflowing bin, towels from the specified pick up area, change our sheets or make our beds or clean any portion of the room as expected of them. All they did was give us toilet roll. Very disappointing considering the ideal location for the hotel and the price.(although much cheaper than anywhere else in the area so some disappointment to be expected)
