Hotel Adlon Kempinski Hotel

Hotel Adlon Kempinski is one of my favorite hotels in the world, if it were in a different city, it would be my absolute favorite, but Berlin isn't at the top of my favorite places list. Everything about the hotel is divine: rooms are massive with stunning decor, baths are delicious with extravagant amenities (and many have steam showers with my favorite thing of all eucalyptus steam), service is exceptional, location is central, spa/pool/fitness area is divine with one of Germany's most memorable pools, and the food is heavenly, sounds silly to eat such a meal in such a fancy hotel I know, but try their Wiener Schnitzel, available in the lobby lounge it's one of the best meals I've ever had. Staying here will cost you a pretty penny, but the experience is guaranteed to be unforgettable. If you're traveling with friends, sharing a suite can be more affordable than two separate rooms. The hotel will make up a very comfortable extra bed for you, and in these huge rooms, you'll have plenty of space for 3 or 4 guests.

But the real exceptional of the Hotel comes from the wonderful service, the top comfortable large rooms, the perfect quality of the restaurants and lobby bar, the concierge support and effort to fulfill all your wishes, the superb breakfast. Overall, I found the staff to be very impressive. All seemed to speak English very well, and were very helpful. In particular, the staff who checked me in, and the concierge, were very helpful. Staff at breakfast were again very helpful and seemed well-trained. No complaints here; all lived up to the five star standard.

Truly a beautiful hotel, amazing service and you could not get a better location. Loved every second. Room 214, deluxe superior is highly recommended and well worth the upgrade. Our view of the Brandenburg gate was truly out of this world. The most comfiest large bed ever. The spa was awesome, we had a full body 60 minute massage each. The pool, Jacuzzi and steam and sauna facilities until 10 pm were a real relaxing luxury for tired feet and a perfect way to start your day with a swim. Breakfast had everything. Everything you could ask for. We liked to have breakfast downstairs in the restaurant with a view of the Gate. Champagne breakfast, was perfect. We loved to sit in the bar area, by the fountain with the piano music in the background. Strongly recommend a car service from the hotel from the airport. The driver gave us our own little tour on our way to the hotel which helped us during our stay on where to visit. I will be staying here again and look forward to staying in other Kempinski Hotels around the world.

We have been to Berlin before but it was our first time we stayed in the Adlon. We were looking forward to this trip. We were greeted by the very friendly door man who looked after our luggage and sent them up to our room. After check in at the Reception we were escorted up to our room. Our room was a deluxe room 405 facing the court yard. Nice and quiet, very sophisticated. The room was clean and comfortable with a well stocked mini bar, capsule coffee machine, complimentary Evian and the usual amenities in the bathroom. I did like the complimentary shoe shine service. Comes in handy after a long day waling the the city. We are not really a breakfast people so we skipped that. We dined both the Quarre and the Esszimmer restaurants and we enjoyed both. Both the service and the personalized approach by the staff are on the highest standard. We really enjoyed our stay and looking forward to return during our next visit to Berlin.
