Novum Hotel City B Berlin Centrum

The hotel was close to major attractions and the subway stop was just across the street, so very convenient location. I had booked a non-smoking junior suite, but when I arrived, they only had a smoking suite. I was offered a non-smoking standard room at a reduced rate, but would have liked to have the room I reserved.

Central location near underground station, direct bus connection to Potsdamer Platz, very good price. Took breakfast in "Cafe Noir" just over the street (Fairtrade coffee), have not tried hotel breakfast. Clean and spacious room, clean bathroom, for the price I paid really more than ok. Stuff very friendly, no problem to leave luggage there after check out (my flight back was in the afternoon). Was there second time and would go there again. Had a room to Potsdamer Strasse but very well isolated windows so no problem to sleep well. Just additional information: Reception open from 06:30 to 23:00. Room service very late, between 15:00 and 16:00. Mainly for "bed and breakfast" usage as there is no bar and no restaurant inside. For me no problem as Berlin is full of entertainment so I used this hotel for sleeping only - nothing bad to say about this hotel from my side.

The location of the hotel,room and hotel staff. no.

Rooms are newly renovated. Central location and close to U-bahn (across the street). Staff was friendly, helpful, and speaks good English. Street-side rooms are noisy, mattress was extremely uncomfortable considering all was new, internet (WiFi) very expensive. Immediate neighbourhood has not much to offer (but lots of bars and restaurants at Nollendorfplatz one stop away). Limited reception hours.

The size of the room and the facilities. We were given a 5th floor room, so that combined with the floor to ceiling windows meant that we were given a hell of a view of Berlin when we woke up in the morning. Not sure whether the breakfast was worth €12.
