This hotel was ideally located along two main streets. Walkable and with tram and u-bahn lines close by. I was able to get to anywhere I wanted. Room was clean, the air conditioning was the best I've had in Europe! I honestly skipped the breakfast bar because there were so many cute cafés around.

8/10 Very good

First of all. The staff helped me check in 3,5 hours early cause the room was ready. Secondly I got a room with a broken AC and the staff helped me get a new one without trouble. Also a big plus that check out was 12.00 instead of say 10 am. The down side was that the room had no fridge and bad shower pressure.

A nice stay in the nice hotel

We had a really nice stay at the Arcotel Velvet Berlin hotel. Everything went smoothly, our room was nice, bed comfy and the breakfast was tasty and the coffee too. The only thing we really missed was a small fridge. That would have been useful for us.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Great room, loved the hugh window with full view to Oranienburger Straße. Service was also very helpful. We forgot ordering cleaning (had to be done the day before using a QR code), which was a shame. Due to maintenance of the parking basement, we had to move our car early in the morning on our last day, which was quite inconvenient. It would have been nice with a small compensation such as a free coffee or similar.

Great location

Great location. Comfy beds. Breakfast was decent, but the food was put out very slowly and cutlery was hard to find. Also one coffee machine is not enough. Teabags also weren't replaced.
Verified review

6/10 Good

Nice area with good communication around the city. Clean and ok rooms. Appreciated that we got a closed bathroom on request. The open bathrooms are really strange for us Scandinavians, and have not seen it earlier in Berlin, nor elsewhere in Europe or US. All in all a good stay in a ok hotel in a good location in Berlin.
Verified review

6/10 Good

The location is great, it's clean and rooms are decent size. However, the AC didn't work and the staff made no attempt at fixing it, said we should open the windows. The tub is old and worn down and the hair dryer is also old and not very useful showing poor maintenance.

Horrific service…

Too bad that the service here was sub par. Not only did they make grave mistakes (as giving the wrong room number) but also tried to dubble charge the city tax. Glad I kept the receipt… I would book somewhere else. The area is great.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Liked the large windows and the large room. Breakfast was good. However it was hot in Berlin and we had chosen the hotel because it had airconditioning (AC). The AC in the whole hotel was broken so our room was uncomfortable and noisy when the windows were open. We were not told about the AC when we booked in or we wouldnt have stayed. It was not fixed during our stay.
