We booked the Mercure for a four day city break based on it's excellent reviews on Tripadvisor and were not disappointed. The hotel is in an excellent location, one block from checkpoint charlie and a five minute walk from two U-Bahn stations (Kochstrasse and Stadtmitte). The price of the hotel was very reasonable, and although not a five-star luxury pad,... more

I will simply reiterate what many of the other reviewers have said: this is a wonderful hotel, and doubly wonderful given the price and location. My wife and I were there for a week--I was at a conference--and we booked a 7 night special on Bookings.com for 99 Euros a night. Our upgraded room--part of the package, I think--was absolutely... more

Excellent location, within walking distance of all central attractions. Check out the French "steak and chips" restaurant 50m away, and the high class (expensive) cocktail/champagne bar just up the road. Hotel is good, clean, rooms large, quiet and well equipped. Breakfast is OK (only). Perhaps slightly expensive, certainly no bargain (hence the 4* rating here) - would recommend. more

Recenty stayed here to attend a conference at the ICC in Berlin. Hotel is a nice clean 4 star hotel. Very close to Checkpoint Charlie (about 3 blocks away). We booked the cheapest room available and got upgraded to a large room on arrival. Downside was that the room was on the 8th floor and the elevator only goes to... more

Stayed for a whole week, and can't complain at all. Location's great, close to subway station, shopping area, easy walking distance to excellent restaurants, etc. Some might consider it being away from all the "main areas" but that is NOT TRUE. It is so excellently located, there is really nothing to complain about. Great buffet in the morning, nice staff,... more

Just back from six nights at the Mercure Checkpoint Charlie, in Room 706 (same as Little Cupcakes, May 2, 2008, review). Big room, more like a suite. Hideous colour scheme, royal blue chairs and orange carpet, but that's the only criticism. Excellent bathroom, with separate toilet. Everything spotlessly clean. Helpful staff. Free internet access in the lobby. We didn't want... more

We recently stayed at this hotel upon the recommendation of trip advisor. I can't say enough about how friendly the staff was. They were nice and helpful. The rooms were extra large and very clean. We had a suite for three people-a nice surprise because we were expecting a 3rd bed to be a sofa. The only surprise was the... more

This hotel has so many positive reviews I saw little choice but to stay here. Especially given the excellent price. But I will say it was more three star in areas than the four they showed on their door. The staff were overly friendly professional. Up there with the best I have seen in Europe. They speak very good English... more

I stayed in this hotel for two nights and was given a very large suite with two separate rooms. One was a double, one a sitting room with sofa, chair and single bed. There was also a bathroom with a separate shower and bath with the W/C contained in a separate room (very handy). Staff were great and service was... more
