Eden Am Zoo

The hotel was very close to the Kufurstendamm and the Zoo. It had easy access to the U-bahn and S-bahn as well. Breakfast was good and there was a small tv in our room, so our children could watch cartoons in German. The hotel also provided a well stocked table with maps and literature on things to do (since we forgot our guide book)! There was also a water cooler in the hall that we were able to use, a feature that I loved!

In our room, the compartmentalized bathroom was very (and I mean sickeningly) smelly when we would first come in for the night. After using it and running the shower, the smell went away. The radiators were working off and on during our stay also, which made for some really cold nights, but the duvets on the beds were snuggly. Overall, for the price, this hotel was worth the small discomforts.

No english-speaking staff upon arrival. Lousy internet connection. Airplane- size bathroom, weird loud noises from heating radiator in the middle of the night. No fridge, no telephone! And according to booking.com this should be a 3-star?
