Reviews for MEININGER Hotel Berlin Hauptbahnhof

Review 1：Not clean. No coffee pot. No remote for the tv. The beds were 50 years old. Springs coming through. The worst bed experience of my life. Housekeeping needs to do their job!

Review 2：Excellent location, comfortable beds and very enthusiastic and helpful staff. A budget hotel with not a lot of character, but a lot of comfort and facilities.

Review 3：Very small room for four people. Could hear people partying throughout the night from a large school group in adjoining rooms. Not enough clean crockery and cutlery in the kitchen.

Review 4：Great location and clean.

Review 5：Kettle is unclean Out of order microwave Poor pillows Very Hot air conditioning Housekeeping should be better

Review 6：Location Guest kitchen Breakfast Kind staff

Review 7：No early check in available (we were willing to pay) - alternatively a luggage facility was available to leave our bags.

Review 8：Location is fantastic, perfect for all of the major tourist sites, rooms were well heated considering the cold weather and staff were helpful.

Review 9：Sometimes it would get a little bit chily in the bedroom although all windows were closed and the heating was on.

Review 10：the hotel is located about 100 meters from one of Hauptbahnhof's exit. It is very easy to locate and use as a starting point when exploring the city.

Review 11：The 7am alarm to evacuate one morning was scary,but I guess unavoidable. Also would have loved the new breakfast room to be available, but we had enty of choices available next door and at the bahnhof.

Review 12：It was perfect for us so we didn't have to get luggage to another destination.

Review 13：That I had to leave.

Review 14：Great location & transport links. Staff very friendly and helpful, gave us great recommendations. Bar was good, the beers were reasonably priced. The price for the room was so cheap and we were stunned we got such great value for money.

Review 15：The bathroom was not as clean as I expected, there is no fridge in the room and also no phone

Review 16：The location is GREAT, the rooms are small but comfortable and the wifi this time was good because i was on the 1st floor

Review 17：it seems like they are renovating some areas

Review 18：loved the location, comfort of the rooms, the high tech windows, easy check in and check out process, free luggage storage

Review 19：The staff is not so nice and the area ain't a pretty / busy one.

Review 20：The room was very small and minimal (bunk beds) but very clean and very cheap (20€/night). We had everything we needed (towels, clean sheets, hairdryer) and the public transportation around the hotel is ideal (taxis, trains, trams, S+UBahn).

Review 21：We stay there for 3 days and staff didn't change our towels.

Review 22：Excellent location! Very good bar on the 1st floor, hotel has a kitchen and you can use it like a guest.

Review 23：The room was confortable but very small. We got a room with two single beds. But for three days we could accept this inconvenience

Review 24：The hotel is just beside the Berlin central station. It's possible to go anywhere easily. The City Circle buses stop in front of the hotel

Review 25：The rooms are small but comfy for single traveler. There might be issues with fitting the luggage if there are two in the room. Room was warm during the stay. Closing the windows blocks out all sound from the nearby train station. A place to stay for easy commute.

Review 26：Not enough lifts for amount of people staying there

Review 27：Right next to Berlin HBF, arrived approx 1am and the staff were very friendly, room was comfortable and bathroom clean. Only there for a couple of hours but next time I visit Berlin I will definitely stay here

Review 28：Confusion after booking daughter in seperate room. They could not locate her booking and did get a bit grumpy. We had to go on line to prove payment then we got a bit better response.

Review 29：Great location, clean and tidy

Review 30：Not much to see in immediate vicinity without a walk (in winter it's not so fun!) Seems their are more "happening" places to stay in.

Review 31：Right next to main train station so easy to get around. Staff were accomodating for a room change when unsatisfied with the first.

Review 32：The double bed was two single beds pushed together and we had to single blankets also. Staff could have being more helpful but in there defense they seemed to be extremely busy every time i was passed the desk.

Review 33：Room was spotless.Location is excellent. Right beside central station, and within easy walking distance to the Brandenburg gates and Reichstag building.

Review 34：the picture showed when booking is a Bbig room and three beds, but what i saw is a very small room with two bunk beds and receptionist said they have rights to arrange.

Review 35：very good position for traveller

Review 36：Computers were not working properly.

Review 37：The staff is young people who works eficiently, quick and speak several languages. Reception is open 24 hours and the hotel is 2 min from the trainstation.

Review 38：1. There was no towels available upon our arrival. Was not informed that towels were provided free of charge. We actually went to buy one. 2. Would be perfect if they had triple rooms.

Review 39：1. Location was excellent. Next to Berlin HBF. Walking distance to Reichtag & Bergenburg Gate. 2. Fully equipped kitchen. And it's very clean too. 3. Very friendly and knowledgeable staffs

Review 40：- Bad breakfast (no eggs, little choice, only ham & cheese) - Little beds with little cover

Review 41：- Main trainstation going everywhere ! (aprox. 100 meters) - Easy acces - Quiet hotel - Nice staff - Clean - Bar + beer distribution at reasonable price for drinking in room. - A lot to visit by walk outside this hotel. :D

Review 42：The location is great since I travel with older people and child. From Hauptbahnhof we just need to take 3-5 minutes walk. you can also meet City Tour right in front of hotel if you need.

Review 43：There was a lot of noises from a group teenagers students in the corridor in the same floor at 1 AM, and there was no phone to call the reception and inform them. So I had to shout twice to get those kids back to their rooms. Nevertheless the noises stayed all night long.

Review 44：Price, Staff welcoming, Location

Review 45：Congested rooms, can be used just to go sleep and get out. No facilities are provided including towels and sanitary napkins. Beds need to be prepared by our selves..

Review 46：Just beside main station.

Review 47：The room seems to be a bit crampy! We booked for a triple room and was given a room with 2 occupancy with an extra bed, refs not enough space for the 3 of us (+ luggages!)

Review 48：Excellent location Offers a lot of discounts for tours and entrance tickets to attractions around Berlin

Review 49：The pillows are horrendous, definitely bring your own. I had a stiff neck for quite a few days due to the pillows.

Review 50：Friendly staff, very close to central train station. Easy access to everywhere. Room very basic but all you need.

Review 51：Personnel should have been a little bit more friendlier. The shower shields were broken and the toilet didn't flush that really well.

Review 52：Simple hotel, but the necessities were available (such as wifi). Since it was next to the station, it was very convenient to travel around. The storage room was very handy and we used it when we arrived and departed. The bed was very nice to sleep in, which was a surprise!

Review 53：Cold in the room The room was not very clean. The housekeeper open our room while we were sleeping and starting to clean the bathroom.

Review 54：location Brand new hotel

Review 55：The rooms were very very small, depressive and not much clean. The checkout time was at 12:00 and checkin on 15:00 which was very uncomfortable for our one day stay.

Review 56：The staff of the hotel were customer oriented with good service, the location was very close to Hautbanoff station which has both S and U bahns.

Review 57：The upper bunk bed had food residual underneath the mattress. Seems like there are fleas as well on the lower bunk bed as my parents had small red bumps on their body after the first night stay.

Review 58：Location is excellent

Review 59：It was overcrowded, very unpleasant smell and noise levels are incredibly concerning. It was constant shouting in the corridor. Pictures did not match the reality

Review 60：Rooms are small but totally ok for that money, and breakfast is ok (but my recommendation for breakfast is central station across the street)

Review 61：Internet working perfect and location is great, stuff is cool :)

Review 62：- TV remote was not working properly.

Review 63：- Room was clean and tidy. Well maintained - Near Berlin HBF. easy access to the city & lots of restaurants/cafes inside station. - city sight seeing tour buses operate just outside the hotel.

Review 64：I don't mind the atmosphere full of noisy teenagers but some of themsmoked in the room which led to fire alarm and immediate evacuation inthe middle of the night! I was pissed off by that. The bedsheets are waytoo dusty. And some staffs kept me waiting for my urgent printeddocuments because he went out for some chats with friends and smokedcigarette and I was super in a hurry to catch the train that morning soI had to ask another staff to finish it for me. Yeah I was totallypissed again.

Review 65：The hotel is for the group of young people. It's more like a hostel.The facilities are just a ok. The bed isn't that comfy but if youplan to just sleep and go out, it's fine. The location is absolutelynear the central station and convenience store. That is the only goodpoint to stay here.

Review 66：What does $75 AUD get you in Berlin? A Really great deal for a family, of 4. just crossed road with our bags and we were there, roomy and clean and comfortable and very helpful staff, plus close to zambetteis (?) famous ice creamery and great view of sunrise over the city. ALSO liked fact that I paid thru Booking when I made the reservation and there was no extra deposit or anything taken off my card on arrival.

Review 67：Possibly a bit of noise outside at night (building works?) but hardly audible with the window closed.

Review 68：Basic but very clean and room was a good size, the bed was very comfortable. Good mix of guests and not 'stuffy'. The hotel represented really good value in a capital city. The location was good , easy for the airport and using public transport from the railway station. Despite some reviews stating that it was noisy inside the hotel at night we did not experience this. Staff were helpful.

Review 69：Could do with one more elevator!

Review 70：Excellent location next to entrance of Hbf for S-Bahn; 5-10min walk to Brandenburg Gate. Spotlessly clean; good breakfast buffet; twin room compact but comfortable.

Review 71：Bed - twin when a double would have been preferable and not comfortable. Also metal things each side which were also not comfortable.

Review 72：Staff, location. 24-hour, clean

Review 73：We asked the receptionist to clean up the room in the morning (just before we leave the room to went sightseeing), but until we came back at night, our room were not cleaned up. We need to ask and wait again, while we already tired and expect to have some rest as soon as we came back.

Review 74：Near Hbf central station which has lots of restaurant and shops.

Review 75：A little off-center. There was an emergency evacuation on the last night, the staff did nothing and most people didn't leave, good thing it wasn't a life or death emergency.

Review 76：Clean, value for money, good transport links.

Review 77：Removing the key card turned off all the power in the room - so unable to charge batteries when out. Cluster of smokers occupying‎ the entrance area all day and night. Had to walk through the breakfast room etc to get to the luggage storage room, no apparent control of who removed what luggage. No fridge in the room.

Review 78：Very good value for money. 100m to Berlin Hbf (central station). Reasonably sized single room. Fairly quiet room as long as the window was kept closed.

Review 79：At night very noisy, cause there is a young place but if you are tired like us, you can sleep very pleasant :) We have a 4 years old daughter and we sleep well!

Review 80：Amazing location. In Berlin it is a MUST location and this is location is awesome. The hotel is clean and very comfortable. You have access to a kitchen so you can cook if you want, and that is awesome for long time travellers :)

Review 81：Very near the Hautpbahnhof railway station. Excellent S Bahn & U Bahn trains all round the city. A splendid fellow at the registration desk who took a lot time to book us into both the Reichstag and TV Tower revolving restaurantl

Review 82：We couldnt get drink at bar til 5pm.. very young hotel bit like youth hostel... breakfast repetitive got told i could only toast white bread not brown..there was one girl on reception but didnt get her name but very friendly and helful..

Review 83：Location was excellent

Review 84：2 tops of bunk beds didn't get prepared, they only put the new-wash on the bed. There's so many youths and school groups, it's quite noisy at night.

Review 85：The room is new and clean. modern hotel close to Berlin main station where has many restaurants you can get quick meals.

Review 86：Strong smell of cleaning materials. Extremely narrow, so-called "double" bed pushed against wall of tiny room. Difficult to get in & out of. Surly worker in breakfast room. Demeaning response from front desk.

Review 87：A bit shocking to have 2 sets of bunks but hey, variety is the spice of Life!!!

Review 88：The location off the major train station allows For an easy walk to all the major sights. If You are feeling lazy, just hop on the train and you are there in 5 minutes. The facility itself is a cross between a hostel and a holiday inn. The staff are Really helpful and the atmosphere is friendly and European. I never thought I'd see my mother in a bunk bed!!!

Review 89：Amazing Room. BIG. Very comfortable. Spacious Bathroom. Strong WiFi. Next to the Main Train Station. Great Landmarks at Walking distance. Breakfast was good. Very modern hotel. Youth Oriented.

Review 90：Packed with school groups. Breakfast was crazy so we ate somewhere else.

Review 91：Right next to train station and within walking distance of places we wanted to go.

Review 92：Staff were a bit noisy in the morning when cleaning the other rooms and both mornings they came into our room early while we were sleeping. Check-in is quite late at 3pm.

Review 93：Location was excellent, right beside the main train station and within walking distance to most of the main cultural sites.

Review 94：Single room was extremely small and cramped. Lot of noise at night due to unruly residents coming in late.

Review 95：Great central location very close to Reichstsg and Brandenburg Gate. Nice friendly staff.

Review 96：The waitres made fall a yougurt pot on the jacket of my daughter and she did not even apologise. In reception they told I could use some tisue to clean it... No possibility to use the toilets at reception as they were locked and they could not find the key...

Review 97：The location

Review 98：We did not have a good welcome from the staff, basic things like "good morning" "thank you" or "good bye"

Review 99：The hotel is very close to the station, very clean the breakfast was ok.

Review 100：Not enough lift capacity at busy times.

Review 101：Fantastic convenient location right next to the Hauptbahnhof. I was able to grab something to eat and get straight to bed on a late arrival, and get a really early train conveniently. The room was small but spotlessly clean and well set up. Surprisingly quiet.

Review 102：Small room as 4 were sharing with bunkbeds. However was only for a few days. Didn't come with a hairdryer/towels in the room.

Review 103：Excellent location, right next to central station and main sites. Excellent value for money. Staff were friendly however didn't interact with them much. Beds were comfortable (don't believe Hans re the pillows).

Review 104：Area is bit empty at night and not much going on around in there.

Review 105：Location is close to central station, so convenient for traveling and connecting to other stations.

Review 106：My only issue was the noise other guests made during the night for the first two nights of my stay. I accept this is probably something the hotel cannot control therefore I didn't raise the issue with the staff.

Review 107：Location is perfect and it was clean, comfortable and excellent value for money.

Review 108：I felt very comfortable there. They were very attentive and helpful. Grand Hotel Adriatico from Florence should take few notes from there about "Hospitality".

Review 109：Clean, comfortable, good breakfast, excellent location, helpful and efficient staff. very easy access to all parts of Berlin from hotel. Many tourist sites within walking distance.

Review 110：The hotel seems to be very popular with teenager school groups, meaning that there is a lot of noise in the hallways and lobby is always packed.

Review 111：I chose this hotel for its location, right next to the train station. I liked that windows were sound proof and you cannot hear the trains.

Review 112：At 7 am they started working in the hotel with a lot of noise. They can also start later when the guests aren't sleeping anymore...But they don't care, you already paid. I was definetly not happy about that

Review 113：One of the lifts were not working time to time, but you can always use stairs!

Review 114：Everything. Location: close to station (Reichstag and other tourists points just few mins away!), station got some good shops/restaurants, also there is ALDI 5mins away. Ask for a quite room (hopefully at a higher floor and opposite to main square, because it can be noisy). Mines was 828! :) Everything was clean and staff were helpful! (You can print tickets or any documents, also there is a free wifi anywhere in hotel, you don't need to go to main reception to catch the signal as it is in some other cheaper hotels). Will use Meininger hotels in a future for sure!

Review 115：there were contruction works in the hotel starting at 7 am in the morning. the works were next to my room with a guy using a drilling machine. the reception just said ppl work between legal hours 'it's just like with you at home'. Not even a lame excuse, they provided

Review 116：normal

Review 117：The only small issues was that one of the lifts were not working; and even on the one that was working, for some reason, it would stop in all the floors. So, getting on and off the lifts were a bit time consuming.

Review 118：Everything was great. Location was superb.

Review 119：Very unfriendly personnal at welcome desk: lady simply shoot at me when I have been asking for printing of my bill while she and her colleague were ´busy' at ´more important tasks' ( cleaning the key pad for one, doing whatever on the computer for the other)

Review 120：Situation

Review 121：Super large group (>500) students behaved rather badly at the hotel causing a scene of chaos, hence noisy and messy. The atmosphere felt more like an overcrowded youth hostel.

Review 122：Location is excellent. The staff are helpful and efficient. The room is well designed and clean. The hotel offers kitchen use and available laundry facility. A locker costs only 2 Euros.

Review 123：- Elevators - Breakfast Hotel is only on the S Bahn what can be a little less convenient if you need to go somewhere. I know better hotels in this price level.

Review 124：+ Wifi connection + Bed + Really friendly stuff Good location if you arrive by train

Review 125：Brilliant location! 10 min walk to Brandenburg Gate and Reichstag building. Easy access to tram and tube facilities to rest of city. Staff very friendly, allowed us to have one room early at no extra charge. Spacious bathroom and comfortable bed!

Review 126：The hotel charged for towels but nothing was said about it on booking.com. Was kind of surprised when we didn't have them in the room, went to front desk as was told there was a charge per person for 1 towel each

Review 127：Very close to the train station and easy to get around Berlin from there.

Review 128：it feels like a hostel, not a hotel. I went on a business trip and was surrounded by teenagers all the time. It is a good place, but I expected a nice hotel, not a nice hostel. The bed was not comfortable. I could have had a nice hotel for €165 a night (2 people).

Review 129：The location is perfect, just by the main station. Reliable wifi. Liked the decoration in the room. Breakfast was good.

Review 130：none great staff and very helpful and polite.

Review 131：The location of the hotel was excellent. I was a lone traveller in Berlin and staff were very helpful. Room basic but clean and comfortable good choice at breakfast and lunch boxes adequate. luggage room great as it enabled me to make the most of my day in Berlin before heading off on my travels Thankyou

Review 132：The room and bathroom is very tiny. Ideal for a budget vaccation.

Review 133：The hotel was located right next to hauptbahnohf which made travelling easy. The breakfast for 7 euros was really worth it. The staff were helpful

Review 134：Wasn't a problem for me but others might not like these: hotel had many pupils who travelled with their classes and teachers, so a bit of teenager chaos. Not really a holiday hotel, especially if you're no longer in your mid 20s...

Review 135：Fairly cheap when I booked very last minute. Located directly outside the main train station/ Hauptbahnhof. Ideal to spend the night if you just need a bed in that location. Good diverse breakfast buffet (hey it's Germany so that's defo great). All very functional. Good noise reduction, had a room overlooking the train station (interesting architecture!) but not a sound in the room. Non smoker hotel.

Review 136：No tea making facilities in the room. Location. No decent restaurants near by. Basic but acceptable.

Review 137：Very convenient for the train and other transport links. This Hotel is ok. Sights within easy walking distance.
