Axel Hotel Berlin - Adults Only

Really good hotel

Property is in a good location. Although air conditioning was advertised, it was not available because the system has to be switched from hot to cold air and cannot accommodate both. The room was very hot during the day and windows had be left open allowing bugs to enter room. The staff did provide fans, but it was still very uncomfortable. The bed was very hard and pillows were not comfortable. We were informed via email after the cancellation window that the spa would be closed for renovation. This was the main reason we booked this hotel. They did not offer anything for this inconvenience. The value of staying there was greatly reduced.

Nice property. I’ve visited it 3 times. Time for a remodel. They’ve started with the spa area

Clean room staff very good too

Very friendly staff, great location

Breakfast is ok

Lovely

Spa facilities not available during my stay which were only made clear after I had booked a non-refundable room. (The hotel refused to allow me to cancel). When this was discussed at reception the on-duty manager just said that as it was temporarily unavailable (for several months it seems) that they would not change the advert which i still do not understand why in the description that cannot be made clear. The hotel room given was above the hotel restaurant with music so loud I could not sleep (i had the half marathon and i have a hidden disability which makes sleeping difficult anyway). When I spoke to the on-duty manager he was very dismissive and even when the assistant had offered me another room for the next night he just said there was no point as there would be no party on sunday night (this was incorrect assumption as I had to endure at 10pm until midnight more loud music). He said they would ring the police as it is illegal but by the time they would arrive it would be midnight when it would be sorted - it was after this time. Nevertheless I got the impression this is a frequent occurrence and is totally unacceptable to sell a room like that. Ultimately because I could not use the facilities I had intended to use and was the main reason for my booking, I changed my flight and was glad to leave the hotel at 7am the next morning. A minor thing in the grand scheme of things was the hair on the bed next to the little cardboard sign which said "welcome home".

We booked specifically for the spa and extras but when we arrived we were informed that the spa was completely closed for renovations. Nowhere on any sites including Axel’s own website does it inform you that there was a planned closure of the spa. The overall response to the situation as well was unsatisfactory. Disappointed and unlikely to stay there again.

Great place, very attentive staff. I will definitely come back.

Nice room, very helpful and friendly staff, great breakfast. Nice spa on the rooftop too.

Room very nice and klein

Room was fine, but cold.

Staff were amazing, my room had a bathtub which I always enjoy when in a hotel, location is perfect although technically not in the centre, Berlin has many districts all very accessible from this hotel. If you are gay then this hotel is perfect for many bars etc. around. The station is a 3 min walk. The rooms are super quiet and proper black out curtains if you crave darkness, nice spa on top floor also. My only negative comment is there no bar, however there are plenty around.

I had read previous reviews about unwelcoming staff / unfriendly atmosphere. well I can absolutely say that couldnt be further from the truth. Everyone was so pleasant and welcoming. Always a friendly smile and polite chat from the staff. The hotel itself is spotlessly clean and the rooms have everything you could ask for. They are also cleaned daily if needed. The facilities are also great the spa area was a perfect wind down after a long day out exploring. 10/10 would recommend, and we will be booking a break here again in the new year.

The ac in the room wasn’t working and there was a weird smell in the room. The facilities in the hotel are not great. Small gym, the door of the sauna not getting closed and Bad smell in the wet sauna. Need to improve the facilities.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. Check in with me to know if I were comfortable checking in.

Really nice room, helpful staff, great location!

Great location, friendly staff. The rooms and amenities need a little refurbishing though. Unfortunately no showers in the spa when I visited, and the mattress was worn out in my room.

Great place
