This hotel is absolutely fantastic. I stayed here for 5 nights while visiting Berlin. Upon arrival…read more(totally jet lagged after 15 hours of travel) I was greeted by friendly and helpful staff with beverage and snacks. The hotel has an elevator, though I did not use it. Our room was extremely clean, beautifully (and very hip/modern) decorated and well sized. The bath products were great (Dr. Bronner & John Master's Organics) and the full kitchen (no oven/microwave) was perfect for everything from preparing a light snack to full meal prep. The hotel also has bikes available for guests to borrow (rent?). I had no problems with the WiFi connection.
My very friendly and social 6 year old son made immediate friends with hotel staff who were very kind, patient (and accommodating!) It became a daily ritual for him to visit and request a game of Pokémon or chat about his day. Though I am certain they had other business to attend to, they always made us feel welcome and went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was comfortable and enjoyable.
The neighborhood is centrally located with tram and U-Bahn stops steps away from the front door. There are multiple restaurants, eis shoppes and two organic markets within a one block radius. A large shopping area is less than 10 minutes away by U-Bahn.
If I am ever again in Berlin in need of lodging, this will be my number one choice!
Thank you Gorki Apartments (and Freddy and Ben)!
