Hotels near Kochu Karu in Berlin

The front desk was very welcoming, smoking together and helping to find slippers. The hotel is also very good, spacious, and the transportation is very convenient. Bus 200 and U line are both close. If you come to Berlin next time, I will stay here again. The price/performance ratio is really good.

I went to this hotel for a mid-week vacation with my lovely daughter. With an UBER it was about 10 Euro to get to the hotel. Check-in was smooth, the older man behind the desk wasnt overly friendly but rather efficient and that was fine. We paid the tourist-tax and got one room-key for our room. We paid online about 80 Euro a night and we got a room with three beds at the back. The room was clean and simple. A desk with a big-screen TV, a shower-room with a toilet and a wash-basin. The shower was ok but we didnt like the shower-curtains. Also the water would be warm for about five minutes but it didnt bother us. Everyday cleaning with new linen and towels. In the morning you can have breakfast but you have to pay for it. We didnt use it. The hotel is set conveniently in the middle of Berlin near Kurfurstenstrasse and Dam. Near the U-Bahn and busses.

Good location. Tall building that can be easily spot from anywhere of the city. (Easy to identify the direction to go back to the hotel) Have to pay eur 2 for luggage storage per day. Bathroom with curtain (no door), not that convenient for non couple.

Honestly I don't like to leave bad reviews but I really don't have a choice here. I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere our experience here was really poor. Where to begin, I originally booked two single rooms with a friend who cancelled. I took my boyfriend instead. I checked on the website and they had double rooms advertised to book for our dates. I contacted the hotel to ask to change to a double room I was informed to do this through booking.com. I called via booking.com who contacted the hotel whilst I waited on hold. The person informed me the hotel stated there were no Double rooms despite them being advertised on the website. I called on 3 occasions to try and change to a double pod however each time was Informed I cannot because none were available despite the fact each time they had them available to book on the website. When we arrived I enquired one last time and was told I could not do this as there were no double pods. Then miraculously moments later the man behind the desk found one, I was informed I would need to rebook and pay for this room and they couldn't let us swap the booking. This wasn't a good start and I found this really dishonest. The staff in general are very rude and dismissive. I usually enjoy staying in hostels and I am very used to budget accommodation and I am willing to make allowances when things are cheap but there is absolutely no sort of hostel type vibe no friendliness, and no common room to meet people or anywhere to sit or relax in the hostel. Honestly it's more of a morgue type vibe. I didn't have high hopes for the hotel as we made our way there it was not easy to reach via public transport from the airport we had to take 3 different trains. From the station you walk past a street that has a sort of homeless camp set up with mattresses on the pavement. We witnessed drug use as we walked past these guys too. As a woman I would not have stayed here if I didn't have my boyfriend with me as I genuinely would not have felt safe in the area around the hotel. The building you enter is dilapidated and it is difficult to find as it does not look like somewhere a hostel/hotel would be. The escalators are broken and not easy to climb, they are covered in cigarette and joint butts and at night this area smells very strongly of ****. Once you get past this I will say the actual inside of the place is better and it is cleaner. The concept of the hotel is bizarre and doesn't really work in my personal opinion. The pods are cramped and too hot. They are not easy to climb in and out of at all. Mine was actually broken and the plastic was starting to snap at the door which was also very annoying. The lockers we were provided were broken and we were never given different ones. The person who designed this place was far too Interested in the concept of a themed hotel rather than actual function of it for customers. The lockers are in an entirely different area so if you want to keep your stuff in a locke

Hotel room was small and clean. Great quiet location.Large reception area. Will stop there again without hesitation. Will never book through Trip.com again. Both flights were cancelled. Ryan Air informed us for the departure so we changed to the night before arriving late and extra nights accommodation needed. The app still has us flying on the original date. The return flight was cancelled and the app stated we were checked in and even gave details of check in gate. This meant another night in a hotel and hundreds of pounds extra to fly the next morning. The app is useless. Book direct with the airline and watch Google as it steers you towards Trip.com automatically. The helpline does not answer the phone. Generic answers are useless just like Trip.com Please publish this!

There is a 10-minute cheap shuttle bus from the hotel to the airport. It feels like a hotel for young people Although the room is not very big, it has a young feel The facilities are also new You can buy something at a small convenience store in the evening And you’ll get free champagne when you check in. Free tea and water 

As a musician I loved the interior, the architecture, the pictures and gallery. Little niche beside the bed to plug in your mobile phone/ tablet or what soever - very comfortable. Lots of very nice details everywhere. This hotel fits perfectly in Berlin.

Stayed here for 4 nights and had a room overlooking the Berlin Wall which was really nice. Room was spotless and cleaned every day and had everything you needed for a stay. Breakfast was really good with a wide selection on the buffet. Location was great with a bus stop right outside taking you to central Berlin and also the train station at Ostbahnhof which wasn't a far walk anyway, maybe 10 minutes. Mercedesplatz was just behind the hotel too which was really good and had a wide range of places to eat and drink and always a great atmosphere. wouldn't hesitate to stay here again when in Berlin.

Good team, very welcoming, smiling and pleasant. The room is spacious and pretty. The bedding is very comfortable. Small downside in the shower because the water changes temperature during the shower which is not very pleasant. Pleasantly surprised because in the room there was a bottle of water, kettle and tea, coffee... Nice breakfast but.

Old-style hotel. Very cozy. Also very suitable for many people. The staff very accommodating. The rooms are large and well equipped. The breakfast buffet was always refilled and offered everything that makes a good breakfast. We felt very comfortable. S-Bahn and bus in the immediate vicinity
