Grimm's Potsdamer Platz

The hotel is places conveniently near Potsdamer Platz and you can cover all major Berlin highlights by foot from it. Parking is nearby in a public parking garage charging 20 EUR/ day amd subway is also nearby, if the need for public transportation, The nice catch is that the hotel is themed, every floor and room depicting one of the Grimm’s fairy tales. Ours was Sleeping beauty. The hotel has a small terrace on the top of the building where you can enjoy a drink in the evening. Breakfast is diverse, with a lot of cold and hot dishes. We visited during Easter, where they even had colored eggs, Osterpinze (specific Easter bread) and chocolate eggs at breakfast😍. The hotel also has a restaurant with German and international dishes. I was not too impressed about the wine options though, but this is really the only criticism I have.

I have literally zero complaints. Staff were friendly and check in/out took seconds. 10 minute walk to Potsdamer Platz. 2 subway stations within a 5 minute walk. Room was clean, water pressure amazing, loved that I had a balcony! Waterkettles available on request. Gym was small, but well equipped with a lovely view!

This may be the best reasonably priced boutique hotel in Berlin. Modernistic but warm, friendly and extremely omfortable it is located in walking distance from a lovely shopping center, the national Holocaust memorial and the Brandenburg gate. The interior design takes its inspiration from the Brothers Grimm fairytales which of course is far from politically correct. but charmingly done. Gourme breakfast. No minibars in the rooms, but then Snow White also didn't have one, did she.

Overall we enjoyed our 3 night stay here at Grimm's, all the staff were professional and polite. Our room was cute and functional, loved the balcony for fresh air. The balcony came into its own as the aircon was weak/non-existent however according to reception it was working as it should, a new eco friendly system. Not pleasant waking up in a stuffy warm room and needing to open the balcony doors to let cool air (and noise and mozzies) in. The young women who served us at our dinners were very friendly and helpful, their English was wonderful where our German was woeful. The food was fine, only comment I would make was a steak was asked to be medium rare, it came out practically blue, I couldn't finish it. Not a problem, I ate everything else on the plate and had dessert, I wasn't deprived. The location is close to parks and public transport, only a short drive to Berlin Main Station, walkable distance to the city and sites. Would we stay again? Probably not as we really didn't enjoy their air con system. We don't expect icy rooms as other nationalities do, however don't enjoy being unable to sleep because of warm rooms.

Overall, The Grimm was ok; however, the hotel DOES NOT have air conditioning. The website stated the hotel has air conditioning but it does not. We contacted the front desk and someone came to “check the system”, but it did nothing. Over the 5 nights we stayed at The Grimm, I adjusted the thermostat to both very high and very low and this made no difference in the room temperature. If you try to open the windows, it is VERY LOUD outside at all hours if the night making it impossible to sleep. The front desk claimed the “air conditioning system” for the hotel is not actually a “true air conditioning” but is rather dependent on outside temperatures. No vents or fans are used in this system. If you want air conditioning and a quiet hotel, book elsewhere. We asked for an isolation fan to move some air with in our room, but the front desk told us they did not have any

Had a recent 3 night stay here, and overall, I was impressed. I asked for a high room, which I got. The only issue I had with the room was 2 single beds, which were quite small, and I like to spread out. The room was very clean but would have been nice to have tea and coffee facilities and i required an iron and ironing board, but when I asked for this the staff stated another customer was using the board and I was disappointed they only had 1 ironing board for customer use??? Besides those things I did enjoy my stay staff were friendly and helpful with local knowledge breakfast was ok nothing special but sufficient. I did have an evening meal on one occasion and I have to say it was really good so I would recommend the food. Drink was reasonably priced. The hotel is situated 3 minutes walk from an underground station and the price from Berlin Brandenburg Airport was 4 euros each way this is very reasonable considering a taxi is around 60 euros each way and was not to hard to work the rail system out just remember to validate your ticket or risk a large fine. I chose this hotel and was in a great location to explore. If I was to return to Berlin, would I stay again...???? Yes definitely....

Amazing service and staff, did a night here on our way home to Sweden and the service they gave our two babies during our dinner was exceptionell! The food was excellent as well. A huge thank man to the staff at the hotell for making us feel so welcomed.

Spent two nights at this hotel as it was conveniently located for our visit. The room was immaculate and the walk in shower a nice surprise. The hotel is a three star but the staff easily deserve a 5 star rating. Friendly & courteous from housekeeping to front desk. Two individuals who deserve a special mention are Seid & Sarajka in reception for their outstanding helpfulness & efficiency during our stay - thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Highly recommended.
