I stayed in a twin room at this hotel in March 2005.
Each room in the hotel is named after an opera and there is a photograph of the opera being performed in each room which I think is a nice touch.

The room was quite small but had everything we needed including a safe to keep our valubles in, a television (with some sky channels and BBC News 24) and a well-stocked, reasonably priced minibar. We had a lovely view of Berlin out of the window which was particulary nice at night when all the lights were on.

The bed was probably the most comfortable I have ever slept on. I can not even begin to describe how lovely it was!
The en-suite bathroom was really stunning. It had a deep bath and a wonderfully powerful shower and it was beautifully decorated. It was cleaned daily by hotel staff and it really was a pleasure to use. The towels provided were lovely and soft too.

As a food lover I was a little disappointed by the breakfast provided by the hotel but it was perfectly adequate and good value for money. There was a choice of boiled eggs, bread rolls, cold meats and cream cheese with tea, coffee or juice to drink.
I was also disappointed by the fact that there is no restaurant or bar within the hotel but as it is a short wallk from the city centre it wasn't really a problem as there are a great many places to eat and drink within easy walking distance and theres a subway just next door if you get an attack of the munchies at night!

I can not comment on how family friendly the place is as I went away with a friend but I did not see any facilities for children whilst I was there.

Overall I would definately recommend this hotel. It is in a great location and the rooms were absolutely lovely. It is great value for money.
