I am floored by the amount of books, in every single category imaginable. Yes, they have a large children's section. There is a giant plush figure standing near a black pole in front of the children's books. I checked out each floor. I'm a sucker for novelty items, which they have plenty of. They sell multiple models of Polaroid cameras and film. Tons of calendars in different formats. Their vinyl room is on the ground floor, in the back. The store is sleek, clean, and organized. If you're in Berlin, I recommend visiting this store.

Great bookstore! Plus, a lot of everything else!…read more Dussmann's is an incredible bookstore. But, it is so much more than that. Beyond an insane collection of books, they also have tons of very unique novelty items that make great gifts or, something for yourself-- something that you never knew you needed. This shop is a multilevel business. They have multiple floors with books and other items on every floor. Plus, it is just stuffed full with an insane amount of books covering all varieties to quench your reading experience. As mentioned, they are much more than just an incredible bookstore. They also have a great selection of vinyl. So, for all of you vinyl enthusiasts, this is a great place to go and find that unique piece of music that you've wanted either very recently or all the way back to when you were young. It's really hard to explain just how much this store offers. I mean, if you're looking for a specific book, it's more than likely they will have. And, if they don't, they can most likely get it for you. Dussmann's great places to sit around and take a look at that book you may be interested in purchasing. Or, you can go there and have interesting discussions with your friends or family about literature and/or anything else. This is truly a great shop! Not only do you never know what you will find, but, if you're looking for something very specific, more than likely you'll be able to find it here.

Beautiful department store in the middle of Berlin…read more I've seen my fair share of fancy and high-end department stores throughout the U.S. and Korea, but Quartier 206 has such a unique character and interior that I devoted time to wandering around the entire department store. I was there to buy some Santa Maria Novella products, and the staff was helpful, accommodating, friendly. Did not blink at my lack of German. Great dept. store - rec. highly!

Ok but the girl next to me ate her food and had no problem))) never mind I thought...luxury stores in Berlin have strict policies, behave yourself))) so 10 minutes later i could finally enter the perfume department. I searched for a specific perfume, named it 5-6 times to the assistant but he kept rolling his eyes as if i just made it up and know nothing of niche perfume brands...))) had to google it and show the picture to prove that the perfume exists! This very fact kind of perplexed him)) Bottom line: i didnt feel comfortable at all, the experience is not worth it. Gallerie la fayette next door is better. PS: and no the selection of perfumes did not impress me at all. Online retailers from Munich and Hamburg offer a much more interesting selection.

The Alexa Mall is a rather large mall in central Berlin, Alexanderplatz. It was opened nearly 10…read moreyears ago in September 2007, and apart from a few nice features to the mall, there isn't much else which makes this place fantastic, even some parts of the building it is located in just feel old, not modern as it should be compared to other malls due to being just 10 years old. The range of shops here is okay, albeit I found it to be quite poor for a mall of its' size, there was actually only a small number of brands I was familiar with, as I'm from the UK. These included Build a bear workshop, O2, JD Sports etc. There was a few large stores such as H and M, but a good number of the stores were quite small including JD Sports. Other brands for dining included Subway, Mcdonald's and Subway, the Food Court was so small however I wouldn't even call it a food court, just a small section on the third floor with a few places to grab some fast food, the Starbucks is located on the second floor, or basically the one below the food court. There wasn't a lot of maps or staff around the mall either to ask for assistance, I did notice a store plan near one of the lifts but that was pretty much it, the mall did have a good amount of lifts however which I normally find is the opposite in most major malls in the UK including Manchester Arndale, intu Trafford Centre and intu Metrocentre. Due to reasons mentioned above, mainly down to the feel of Alexa, very few places to eat, the mall being a little hard to navigate without a huge number of big names, I sadly only feel it deserves a two star rating.

The Europa-Centre is a shopping centre in Berlin, it is a fairly decent size and includes eateries…read moresuch as Vapiano and KFC. It's located directly adjacent to the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church so the location is reasonable. The mall is slightly hard to navigate with very few employees around, and only two lifts, both of which are close to each other but not close enough you can press a button and wait for the next one, the lifts overall are quite slow. The mall does have some nice features such as a market outside, and a nice square where you can sit outside if you ate at Vapiano for example, and a water feature inside. Probably a lack of shops also doesn't do this place any positives, and the number of shops and even places to eat is much smaller than most other shopping malls I've seen around the city, such as the Mall of Berlin. This isn't the best of places to shop, and probably not somewhere one should come out of their way for, it has a new nice water features and an excellent branch of Vapiano and sadly that is about it, also frustratingly the toilets are downstairs (they do have a pretty frightening stair-lift) but of course you have to also pay 50 cents each for this. Due to what I've mentioned, the Europa Centre deserves a two star rating.
