We have just returned from a short break in the City of Berlin, staying at the excellent Hotel California, situated on the smart side of the city, on the Kurfurstendamm. We had an excellent stay, albeit our room on the quiet side of the Hotel, was a tad small, but as we planned to "sight see" this wasn't a problem,... More

Excellent location, the 109 bus stop for Tegel Airport and Uhlandstrasse U-bahn station are very close by. Ku'damn is a smart shopping street. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was very good including smoked salmon. We used restaurants near the hotel and there were many to choose from. Our Superior room was at the front in the... More

This is a highly recommended place to stay. Friendly staff good choice buffet breakfast. Nice bar and pavement seating area. The hotel is located in the main shopping area but UBahn is very close and main attractions are walking and cycling distance. We had a half price deal so made the trip even better but our room over looked the... More

We stayed at the Hotel California for 3 nights, the hotel is located about a 5 minute walk from kurfürstendamm Metro station or about a 10 minute walk from Zoologischer Train Station (which you can catch to / from Schönefeld Airport). The Airport is about 40mins from Zoologischer Train Station and the trains are every hour, an all day tourist... More

I stayed here with two friends and we all thought the place was brilliant. It is perfectly placed, near the shops, the main thoroughfare of Berlin and very near the airport busstop. The rooms are large and very comfortable, and the bathrooms are huge with everything you might need. Our deal included breakfast, and there was a brilliant choice of... More

From there it is easy to start visiting Berlin, nice restaurants i neighbourhood, Sauvignyplatz is also in the neighbourhood, 5 minutes walk and lots of restaurants. The rooms in Hotel California were tidy, they could have been bigger, warm etc. The persons in the... More

The hotel was clean and nice and as expected for price. Location was great, close to shopping, zoo, public transport ect. The major downfall of the hotel was the service from staff, from the moment of check in. A smile goes a long way. Staff did not make you feel welcome and seemed very uninterested in doing their job.

Did not expect a 5* hotel, may be not even a 4* at my moderate prebooked and prepaid rate. But considering the price, this was excellent!! Unbeatable location! Fast and friendly check-in and check-out. Elevator was a bit slow. Very reasonable prices for the minibar: 2 EUR for water or CocaCola, 3 EUR for beer, 5 EUR for wine! All... More
