The Swami has a calm and genuine radiance that let´s you know that you are in good hands, whether you are a newbie or advanced. Should you have a deep urge to learn about yoga, his traditional upbringing and understanding of yoga will spare you many many years of practicing yoga with "unknowledgeable" modern yoga teachers. This yoga school is different than any other yoga school/establishment I have ever visited. It is located on a corner of two busy streets, however, once you walk in and are greeted by the beautiful and calm sent in the air, you know that you can now leave your frazzled and busy thoughts behind. And you will! The studio is located on the second floor of an Altbau house, which comes with the charming hardwood floors, high ceilings and large windows. Yet it has a traditional and practical ambiance and impresses with its simplicity. People there are friendly and welcome you immediately and one has never the feeling of being a newbie. The yoga sessions are taught in one room, which fits approx. 15-20 people. The neighboring room provides additional space for more people. The sessions are different each time. I think that Swami works on these things rather deliberately and one gets the feeling that he has put thought into preparing a yoga session. In addition to the regular asanas, one day it could contain singing mantras, the other breathing exercises, or a focus on meditation and relaxation, sometimes it could be a few minutes of philosophy and one can learn about Indian medicine or alternative remedies. It is all well balanced and you will leave the session with a smile on your face. Promised! The website provides updates, class schedules, dates on retreats. One can also get a yoga license here. The prices vary depending on flexibility and frequency.

There were two instructors in class, with one adjusting. I've never taken a Bikram class with this level of attention (ah, German engineering at it's finest) and I feel like this class alone was a booster pack to my entire decade + long practice. If your idea of relaxation is torturesome detoxification, then I strongly recommend a grueling session at Yoga and More. (the relaxation is the reward). The studio itself is beautiful and the heated room has hardwood floors which is always preferential to carpet. 10 Euro for 10 classes intro special makes even one class cost effective.

I had an Free Night Certificate (FNC) I used for the last night. The hubs and I have the Chase Sapphire Reserve so took advantage of the edit credit. The first two nights would have been $997.39, but we used our $250 CC credit, paid a few bucks in cash, and used points for the rest. Thru Chase we booked a Deluxe Guest room, 1 King. I had reached out prior to ask if we could stay in the same room the entire time. Luckily they were able to upgrade to the category I booked with my FNC. Thru Chase, we also got a $100 on property credit, free breakfast, and a welcome amenity. The welcome gift ended up being a couple bottles of water and some chocolates. The Ritz reached out prior to with a questionnaire regarding our stay so they can customize anything you might need. I also let them know we were in Berlin celebrating an anniversary. They were super sweet and sent us a cake. The room itself was great. Bed comfy and a great size. Had a spacious sitting area, large bathroom. Nice view of the plaza. It really isn't much to look at, but I appreciate any kind of view. Before we got our room, we went down to the spa to freshen up. We actually took the airport express FEX to get here. It was unusually hot during that time, so it was nice to clean up a bit. The free breakfast at POTS is something you should not skip. I highly recommend checking it out at least once. We did hit it up Sunday morning. You can order off their a la carte menu and hit up the buffet. I believe everything is included except alcoholic beverages. We also went to the Curtain Club twice while staying here. Service wise, I felt like this spot was pretty hands off. But I know if I needed something, I could ask for it. Overall, a nice hotel to use the Chase Edit credit. REVIEW #4090

Whether it was with a restaurant reservation, or a newspaper, or insights on where & how to get around their Hauptstadt of Berlin. They excelled at service. Also, their prime location, next to the U-Bahn Potsdamer station, makes it a key jumping off point for whatever/where-ever you want to go and do.... Charlottenburg, Kaufhaus (KaDeWa), the Eastern Gallery, or even the Brandenburger Berlin Flughafen are all within a convenient U-Bahn ride from here. I have stayed all over with this brand and this might be the best Ritz-Carlton yet. Well deserved Five Stars.

I figured, breakfast every morning, why not. I chose a river view room and was not disappointed with the view. The glass doors open to a wonderful view of the river, but don't expect a walk on patio. The room was nice and clean with enough drawers and compartments to hang and unpack all my clothes. I was glad I paid for lounge access. Breakfast hours were from 7A-11A; Candy from 11A-3P; Bite size bakery items from 3P-6P; and Appetizers from 6P-9P. Cold, bottled water, soda, and beer are always available from the refrigerator. Coffee and espresso drinks from a machine are always available as well. I really enjoyed the breakfast. Not only was there a buffet style spread, there was also a menu available and staff who would take your order. I ordered a coffee and fried eggs every morning. Perfectly fried and beautifully presented. Then I started ordering the waffles with cherry sauce. So delicious. Who knew I liked cooked cherries. Evenings, I made certain to get a glass of sparkling or red wine. Staff were awesome. They were always friendly and accommodating in the lounge. Cons: 1. There are no USB charging stations for phones. I had to purchase a power adaptor at the concierge for $10 Euros. 2. There were no wash towels in the restroom for the majority of my stay. 3. Bar of soap available 1 night. 4. When I called housekeeping, it kept ringing, so I hung up.

Let me begin this review by stating that I like this hotel. It is very well maintained, the staff…read moreare beyond friendly and helpful, and it is perfectly situated right in the heart of the city. This being said, there are a few downsides to this hotel, which I will get to in a moment. You should probably consider these before you actually decide to book a room here, as they may affect your stay. To begin with, I want to discuss the location. As mentioned, this hotel is perfectly located right in the heart of Berlin. You are easy walking distance to Museum Island, to Berlin Tower, The Bauhaus, cathedrals, shopping, and dining. Plus, you are located right along the Spree River This brings me to their rooms. I really suggest that you book a river-view room. It really makes the whole lodging experience so much better. You open up your window, and there it is, the Spree River. All of the flavor of Berlin flowing right at your feet. As I am speaking about the rooms, there are a few things you need to consider. The rooms are all very well-designed and they're very well-maintained. They're very clean, and every time that you leave your room in the morning you can be sure that it will be made-up by the time you returned. One of the downsides to this hotel, however, and this fact really blows my mind, is that they do not have USB connections in the room. Thus, there is no place to charge your phone, your computer, or anything else unless you have an AC adapter. It's almost hard to believe that a hotel, in this day and age, would not install USB ports. But the Meliá does not. This brings me to one of the negative points about this establishment, providing me with a real bone to pick with this hotel. I live in the States, and expecting there to be USB ports in the room, I didn't bring a European electrical adapter. I have traveled the globe for over forty years and there has never been one time, at one hotel, that I asked for a power converter that it was not happily provided to me (for free). This hotel, however, does not provide those. The only way I could get a power converter, that fed into a USB cable, was to buy one from the concierge. I really think this NOT a good policy! I mean, come on! With the price of the rooms, and the level of the service this hotel supposedly provides, the guest should at least be provided with a power converter if they need one. The other thing I would like to discuss about this hotel is that you should really get a room that offers their Lounge Service. Their Lounge Service is really a good thing. Not excellent. But pretty good. Yes, with this service, your room will cost a little bit more, but you will provided with breakfast every morning and snacks throughout the day and well into the evening. The Lounge changes their offerings at various times during the day. In the morning they offer breakfast style food. And, it's pretty expansive. Not like a full-on breakfast buffet, offered by some hotels, but a nice integrated offerings of various breakfast items. During the day, they offer appetizers. Plus, all day long and into the night you can grab bottled waters, coolers, and beer. In the evening, they provide what they call a pre-dinner offering. With this, the guest are provided with very nice appetizers that are very well prepared. I've noticed that many guests come in there to eat their entire dinner from the Lounge. You can do that if you want. But, that's not really my style. During the afternoon and into the evening, they also offer a nice selection of wine and self-made cocktails. The other minor beef I have with the hotel, and it's kind of amusing, is the fact that for the first three nights of my week-long stay, they did not give us washcloths. But, on the fourth day, amazingly the washcloth did appear. Why didn't they leave washcloths every night, I do not know? One would think that would be standard protocol. Then, the next thing that happened is on the fifth night, the washcloths were gone. So, I don't know what's going on with that? Additionally, in terms of their housekeeping services, they have a note posted in each room that if you need a toothbrush or a razor they will provide them to you. We had run out of toothpaste, so we thought instead of going and buying some from one of the local shops, maybe we could get some from the hotel, since they were offering it. We called housekeeping services a total of seven times over two days and not one time did anybody answer. Thus, I'm not quite sure what they're offering, or who is manning their stations, but we were not provide with what they claim to offer. All this being said, I have good things to say about this hotel. Yes, there is a few downsides, but overall staying at the Meliá was a very pleasant experience.
