Hotel AMANO Berlin

I stayed in two different Amano hotel this weekend. And have a visit before. This time the experience was under very standard I have ever seen. I when to bed early Sunday the 6 as had an early morning flight Monday morning. For some reason, the Amano bar and reception was made into one big teenager party the night between Sunday and Monday. The music started at 22ich and when I came down to check out at 04:00 that food and drunk people all over the reception. There were food and drinks on the floor. I needed to wait 10 min in the reception and then some "VIP" taxi driver told me that I could drive with him for 60 euro. Normal trip 25. So I did not sleep and feel very badly treated. I would have taken pictures to facebook but I was too sleepy from not sleeping all night. Best Regards Thomas Paag

No frills but comfortable. Location was super convenient.

Clean and modern, nice style and decoration of the whole hotel, including the rooms. Well done. WLAN worked well (important to me!). Disappointed by breakfast; buffet does not offer much different choices. When I left my table to get a new plate for breakfast and came back to my table, my coffee and plate were gone (already cleaned up) and new people sitting at my table. Not cool. Also information mix-up between check-in and check-out. At check-in I said I would try the breakfast buffet on the following day (once) and was told that it would not cost me anything (cost EUR 0) at check-out I was asked to pay two breakfasts. Had to be a back-and-forth conversation at 6am - not a good way to start the day and leave the hotel. Had a very bad sleep, although the bed seemed comfortable. Mainly too the noise outside on the street, tram (street train) passing by and making a lot of noise. Expected much more for the price I paid per night (more than 200€/night).

Location is great, the room is clean but I've found a couple of things annoying as such the hand soap and the shampoo is the same. Can't you just put a proper shampoo rather than a hand soap? This is not a cheap hotel... There is only one electric plug on the desk, means you cannot charge your phone and computer at the same time. No electric plug nearby bed, you have to leave your phone at the desk etc.

Nice enough hotel, and in a great location. A little noisy in the evenings, but it is Mitte, so it's to be expected. However, it was very disappointing that on my last morning at the hotel, there was no hot water (anywhere in the hotel). After going to a gym off-site earlier in the morning, all I wanted was a hot shower. When I called reception, they offered a shower down the street at another hotel, which was kind, however not convenient as I was stretched for time as I needed to pack, check out of my room and get to work meetings. My colleague who was also staying at the hotel received a free night for the trouble, however I didn't. It would have been nice to have received some kind of notice (as I heard later the hot water was also off the evening before), so that I could have added more time to my morning. I braved a cold shower and it wasn't pleasant! Other than that, the hotel was comfortable.
