Reviews and Ratings
I had a range of experiences during my stay at this hotel. While the location was convenient and the food was fantastic, the overall quality of the rooms was lacking, and the service from some staff members left much to be desired. It's definitely a place to sleep, but don't expect much more than that.
The Hotel Kolumbus in Berlin offers clean and tidy rooms, making it a decent budget option for travelers. However, the atmosphere can be a bit chaotic due to school groups, and the location is a bit far from the city center. On the plus side, the staff is welcoming and the breakfast is reasonably priced, but if you're looking for a romantic getaway, you might want to consider other options.
This hotel offers a clean and functional stay for those willing to travel a bit to reach the city center. The rooms are comfortable, and I appreciated the nearby dining options. However, the slow internet and distant location were drawbacks that made my experience less than ideal.
My recent stay at this hotel was quite disappointing. Initially, we found it comfortable for our group, but the lack of cleanliness was unacceptable. The staff was unhelpful and rude, especially when addressing issues with our rooms. While the location was somewhat convenient for accessing public transport, it felt isolated, particularly at night with poor lighting around. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend this place unless significant improvements are made.
My stay at this hotel started with a challenging journey as it felt quite isolated from the city center, and generally, it was a bit of a letdown. While the rooms were clean enough, they lacked comfort and felt more like a budget accommodation. The staff were inconsistent; some were nice but others seemed overwhelmed and unfriendly. The dining experience was decent with a good breakfast spread, but overall, I wouldn't recommend it unless you have no other options.
This hotel offers a colorful and vibrant atmosphere with friendly staff and spacious rooms. The breakfast selection was generous, but the dining experience could be improved as I encountered some issues with the quality of the food. A couple of small annoyances included the shower size and some inconsistent service from the staff. Overall, it's a decent place for a short stay, especially with easy access to transport, but I would recommend looking elsewhere for longer visits.
During my stay at this hotel, I found it to be a former hostel, which reflected in the room quality and service. While I enjoyed the marvelous food, especially from the restaurant, the front office staff were quite unwelcoming. The location is decent, close to shops and tram access, but don't expect luxury here.
I had a strange experience at Hotel Kolumbus. The room was clean and nice, but the atmosphere was quite funky with modern art and house music in the reception area. It was packed with young teenagers, which made it feel more like a youth center than a hotel. The location was a bit far from the main attractions, taking around 25 minutes by tram to get to the center, but it wasn't too much of a hassle.
