Garden Boutique Hotel Berlin - Mitte 

Faultless. This really is your home from home in Berlin! We stayed six nights while I ran the Berlin marathon. We really fell on our feet choosing The Gate Garden. It's very close (two blocks) to the S Line train to Nordbahnhof station and the tram (light rail) to the main railway station runs right by the hotel. The staff are absolutely superb, we were warmly greeted every time we came in or went out and nothing was too much trouble for them. We chose a garden room and it was really quiet, you wouldn't believe that you are in a bustling capital city. The gardens themselves are really well kept and we spent a couple of afternoons there reading our books with a cup of coffee. There's a little drinks station set up where you can grab tea and coffee, plus a well stocked fridge with beer and wine for sale. Make sure you introduce yourself to Maxi the cat! If you want to go out for breakfast there's a couple of nice places on the same block as the hotel. There's a ReWe supermarket a few blocks away so you can pick up snacks and essentials for the room. If we return to Berlin there's absolutely no doubt we'd stay here. Yes, there's no elevator so be sure to let them know in the reservation that you need a room with easy access and they will look after the details for you.
