NH Collection Berlin Mitte am Checkpoint Charlie

While in Berlin, NH Collection was for us, a colourful company of four females, our home away from home. We were welcomed in a warm and helpful manner by all the staff, though with a warning with a wink to not outdo the rowdy men from the weekend before. Not entirely sure if we managed, but we tried to keep the decibels of our shenanigans to a minimum. We also really appreciated the free candy on the reception counter, which was our breakfast or dinner for many times. Concerning the rooms, there aren’t really any complaints. Some got to enjoy the comfort of them more than others due to having to get down with the sickness, but we all had a marvelous time. The beds were outstanding, and the complementary coffee and water were utter life savers after diving into the dark and sweaty techno bunkers, returning home, looking like drowned stray cats, questioning the meaning of life. We also want to do a special shout-out to Frau Strauss, who helped us out amazingly, as well as the two lovely people working the graveyard shift on Sunday night, who had to deal with half of our company haunting the hotel hallways. This brings us to the first floor, which deserves an honourable mention, since all four of us made special memories there. So special, it deserves a poem, which goes as follows: Ode To The First Floor The mother mended The suffering scions One of rocks, one of flow The Sitzfleisch cradled The mentor moved The rowdy rascals Together, bringing about The birth of a zonked Athena Behind golden curtains Of conference.

Location was great for walking to local sightseeing and Christmas Markets. Staff was attentive and effective when problems were made known. Room was spacious and clean.

Great location close to shopping, places to eat and transport links. Amazing breakfast buffet with lots of choice, everything you could possibly want. Staff gave us a quieter room overlooking the interior of the building when we asked. There is a bar and restaurant but in the evening it did not have much of an atmosphere.

Location is very good, we walked everywhere we wanted to go. Rooms were clean. They offer drinks at the bar if you skip room/turnover service, which is nice as we usually don't like people going into our room anyways. Breakfast buffet is very good, with lots of options, freshest honey you can find straight from the comb, omeletes made fresh to order, all kinds of pastires, breads, cereal, youghgurts, cheeses, smoked salmon, english, you name it. Spa is fantastic. Hottest sauna we have been to (we didn't dare splashing water on it and sauna is nothing new to us), also another milder one for relaxing (no stones) and then a steam bath. Very good facilities.

The hotel was well located, right near U Stadtmitte, and a pleasant walk to Checkpoint Charlie, the Mall of Berlin, and pretty much central to so many museums etc. The restaurant was set up nicely to watch the Euro Soccer
