We found the mattresses in the room far too soft. This is of course a matter of what you like. Bathroom was okay.Breakfast was very good. Huge selection. Fruit juice was not diluted with water, as in some other hotels, but freshly squeezed would complete the breakfast.Staff are friendly.A big plus of this hotel is the free parking. Metro is also close to the hotel.Plenty of dining options nearby

We spent four nights at the Riu Plaza and were very impressed. We had the privilege of being on the 17th floor and had a beautiful view over Berlin.Above all, many thanks again to housekeeping. The nice gentleman made us happy every day with the different arrangements of our daughter's cuddly toys.But the whole team was actually very friendly.The location near the subway at Wittenbergplatz is great - you can quickly reach the most important tourist highlights with the U2. Around the hotel you will not only find the KaDeWe, but also supermarkets and restaurants that are not a tourist scam.The breakfast had everything your heart could desire.We would love to come back.

We stayed at several hotels in Berlin with pools, as I needed daily swims for health reasons. Unfortunately, this hotel's pool was below average temperature, and when I inquired, they confirmed that no staff had checked it directly. The jacuzzi jets were also not functioning. Additionally, the pool area had a loud water drainage system, making it uncomfortable to spend time there. If you're booking primarily for pool access, I’d recommend choosing another hotel.

Very nice and quiet hotel with a bar and restaurant for a quick snack.The hotel has a parking garage at the back. It's just a shame that you have to drive far up to level 12 and from there you can get to the hotel.

We had a room on the 14th floor. The room is actually very nice. But if it's not clean, frustration arises. It can't hurt to look under the rim of the toilet and there can't be any dirty underwear in the closet from the previous person. Footprints could still be seen in the shower. Rooms also a bit dusty. Overall impression not so good when I pay 350 euros for 2 nights. Without breakfast, mind you.However, the service at reception was very friendly and helpful. The location with the parking garage is also world-class.Were there in May and it was much better. This time I was a little disappointed.Nevertheless, I would come back because I have already experienced it differently.
