This is a traditional German "pension style" hotel for people that aren't traveling on business and…read moreare looking for something more relaxed. Perfect for a family vacation in my view. For comparison I have stayed at the SwissHotel in Berlin center, which is a nice stylish hotel, located directly in the middle of the city. Perfect if you have business nearby, but a SwissHotel is the same in any city in the world. In contrast, Haus Leopold is in an actual neighborhood of Berlin (Zehlendorf is my favorite part of Berlin, but that is because my father grew up here and I spent many summers here). In the morning kids walk past on their way to school, people commute to work and ride their bikes to the supermarket. Nothing like that happens in center city Berlin. This hotel is quiet, with generous rooms (there is even a room with 4 beds for a family). The owners are very helpful and the breakfast (included) is very generous. If you have a rental car, there is free parking and the location is close to Route 115, which encircles the city, so it's great for trips to Potsdam, Wannsee, center city Berlin, etc. If you enjoy biking, the bike baths in all of Berlin are well identified and maintained. I think biking is one of the best ways to explore all that the city offers.

This hotel is a good place to stay if you wish to see Berlin on a budget. I am traveling for work…read moreand my flight arrived at 9pm. So we arrived at the hotel by 9:30 and reception was closed. Calling the emergency number: we reached the receptionist who guided us to the drop box and code that held our keys. It's a nice clean hotel that seems like a transformed house.

From the owner: Nice new rooms. Great green calm and safe area. 20 min to city center.read more

Hotel an sich ist ok, aber man sollte auf jeden Fall darauf achten, KEIN Zimmer zum Hof zu haben,…read morevor allem nicht im Sommer. Bei gutem Wetter machen immer irgendwelche Gäste bis spät in die Nacht Krach, was die Hotelrezeption weder stört, noch dazu veranlasst, selbige Gäste darauf hinzuweisen! Und von dem nicht vorhandenem Wasserdruck und der alle paar Sekunden schwankenden Wassertemperatur der Duschen gar nicht erst zu sprechen! Entweder man verbrennt sich oder duscht eiskalt, und zwar durchgehend im Wechsel alle paar Sekunden! Schlechteste Dusche, die ich je in einem Hotel vorgefunden habe! Das einzige was einigermaßen ok ist sind die Zimmer und das Frühstück. Bedauernswert, da das Hotel eigentlich schön ruhig gelegen ist.

That said its a nice place and a different view of Berlin Oh and whoever rings the church bells at 7:45 am next door is on my "list". Why ring the bell for a whole minute every single morning? Why?!?

I stayed at the Penta for a few days and was impressed with the excellent service they provided…read more Walking in, I was surprised that the front desk is also a bar and right in the lobby, there is a pool table. The hotel is packed with fun things at every turn. The breakfast is also great. I loved the variety of bread, meat, and cheese. During my stay, I tried every single pastry and they were all yummy. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. After mentioning how I needed more soap, I returned to my room to find not one, but three bottles of body soap and shampoo each. It was a hilarious sight to see an army of soap bottles on the bathroom counter. The most amazing experience I had here was that I was actually expecting to receive a package but it only came the day after I checked out of the hotel. I emailed Penta to ask about my package and they offered to mail it to me all the way to Asia! The staff here is amazing and patient. I would definitely go back again.
