Hotel is just average. There are better options in Berlin but due to a German holiday all hotel were very expensive. Get what you pay for but the room was clean and adequate. No temperature controls including no ac. Luckily we stayed while it was cold but you have to adjust the gas heater manually to get the correct heat. Back to 1955. 😀 Another couple traveling with us had an issue in the breakfast area with the wait staff. We never ate there so I cannot comment.

We stayed at the Garner Hotel for a short city break and what a find it was. Situated very close to the tourist attractions, cafes and restaurants, it is incredibly quiet and with very comfortable beds and pillows, made for an excellent night's sleep. Reception staff were excellent and made sure that we had everything we needed. I wouldn't hesitate to come back to this Garner if we ever visit Berlin again.

Friendly staff and nice hotel. Clean room and bathroom. The beds were incredibly comfortable. The room had blackout curtains and a fan was provided in case it was warm in the evening. The location was great - a few minutes from Checkpoint Charlie and a 20 min walk from the Reichstag and Brandenburg Gate. Would definitely stay here again.

Great little hotel & enjoyed our stay. Staff made it perfect. It is not as close as the other Garner hotel to Checkpoint Charlie but it was close to Topographie of Terror and some excellent restaurants. Downside - double doesn’t mean normal nice double so we upgraded for 20 euros which was well worth it.
