The hotel was okay, but no more than that. First, it's NOT central (despite what some of the reviews say) and although the bus stop is right outside and takes you into the centre or to pick up the UBahn it would have been better to be closer in. It was very clean, but the rooms are sparse and not somewhere to do anything but sleep: not even a comfy chair! My room had a balcony which was good, except that it was shared by all the rooms on the 6th floor so that if you wanted privacy you had to keep the net curtains drawn. The staff were very friendly but check-in wasn't smooth: I arrived at 1.30 and was told to come back at 3.00 -okay, I was early but surely there was a clean room somewhere? When I returned at 3.45 the room still wasn't ready. Breakfast, though was really good with some unusual things which changed every day. There are several restaurants in the area, including a Greek restaurant where the waiter bore a disturbing resemblance to David Walliams! I got a 3 nights for 2 deal with Hotel Connect, but otherwise it would have been quite expensive. On balance, it's an okay place to stay but no more than that.

had a girly weekend in berlin october.stayed in the ku damm 101 hotel,modern hotel,very :german:clean and efficient but also cold in atmosphere nice soft music in lobby but no smiles from staff,good location,we walked everywhere,good restaurants but not cheap.great for shopping.nice to go and see,but glad to get home.

In the last 2 years I have spent 2 weekends at this hotel and both times I thoroughly enjoyed it. The hotel has a clear and moden design and the staff is very friendly and tries to fulfill every wish (one night we were bored and the weather was bad, so we got a DVD player delivered into our room and we could choose from several DVDs for a very low charge). Their recommendations for restaurants have always been precisly that what we have asked for.
There are 2 things to highlight at the Kudamm 101: you eat your breakfast looking over Berlin (the breakfast room is situated at the top floor of the Hotel) and the barkeeper has always been happy to create personal cocktails for everyone who couldn't decide what to choose from the long cocktail list.
Although the Kudamm is situated at the "wrong" side of the Kudamm, it is nevertheless only a 15 min walk to get to the central shopping area of Berlin and there are several tube stations along the Kudamm that get you everywhere in no time at all.
Overall the Kudamm has been one of the nicest hotels I have ever stayed in and I am already looking forward to staying there again!

The hotel is trendy in a minimalistic, clean sort of way. Perfectly adequate for overnight stays, but probably better suited to business professionals - who were dominant at breakfast, as it's not the type of place to lounge comfortably around in, especially as all the TV channels are in German and there's no mini-bar, kettle, or even drinking water in the room! The nearest tube/Ubahn station is a good 10 min walk - and about 4 changes from the airport - better to go to the Halensee S-bahn station which is only one change from the airport. We asked for recommendations to a lively cafe for lunch and had a 1/2 hour journey to find one (walk & tube). KaDeWe, the major dept store is on the Ku'damm, but right at the other end - 3 tube stops and a good walk.
Overall the hotel matched our opinion of Berlin - sterile. If we'd been more impressed by Berlin, the hotel would have been fine as a base, but we found it a hard city to find any life in - perhaps we went at the wrong time of year?? We won't be back to find out. Recommend you go to Rome, Paris or Stockholm instead - much more to do, see and experience!
