super Team!!
The location is AMAZING!!! Central to absolutely everything. The hotel was clean and comfortable and the staff was so pleasant. The only reason why I didn’t rate it a 10 was because the size of the room. Let’s just say it was cozy 😊 I’d still highly recommend it to anyone looking for accommodations in Berlin
Fantastic hotel, great location next to station and bottom of Cockburn Street. Staff helpful, room clean and comfortable.
Pleasant staff, easy check in, convenient location and great bar and libation selections.
Really nice place to stay
Clean, service friendly and very helpful even at busy times
Very nice staff, great bar, clean room. I will say this was a very small room with tight space for 2 people.
The cleaners came into my room at 9:30am. I was in my bathroom showering. When I screamed, they yelled sorry and went out. I don't understand why cleaners want to enter rooms that aren't checking out at such an early time. The next day, cleaners also knocked my room around 9am. I had to tell them I'm inside once again. If cleaning is required at such an early hour, you should have a better system identifying who's ready for cleaning ('im ready for cleaning'sign).
There was no trash can in the room. The bathroom kinda smelled a little. Otherwise it was good! Breakfast was also good but there can always be more vegan alternatives (or just vegan food for everyone).
In all other Motel One hotels where I have stayed, there is always a desk. In this one, there is only a very small coffee table and no desk. This is not helpful if you want to work from the hotel room. I asked reception whether there were rooms with a desk and was told, very few and clearly the receptionist did not want to change me to such a room. I won't be back.
The hotel is clean, and the room attendants' efforts are appreciated, but the price is exaggerated, even the water is not free, there is no kettle or its accessories, and the reception staff needs improvement.
Good hotel, quiet room, a bit small room, I didn't like at all that the door was very heavy, I didn't like at all the answer I asked for to keep my passport in the safe - rent a locker. Thank׳s very much to the nice guy from the reception who was on the evening shift on Thursday who took care of me with a shaving kit when all the shops were closed. I ordered an Aperol Spritz twice at the bar - I order it a lot - the amount I received was very small
Anytime again.
Short but good
Nicely decorated hotel. Very comfortable and welcoming! Comfortable beds and and excellent breakfast for purchase. Train station couldn’t be closer. Area around the hotel was so so, but have to walk far for surroundings to improve.
rooms way tooooo small!
Alles Super
I always stay at Motel One when visiting Berlin, so it has become like a home to me. Last time there was a confusion regarding the room I had booked and paid - I had booked the big room (I think 20 m2 instead of 16m2 - reciting by memory) However, upon arrival we were hosted in a small room, fortunately there was free big room to move us into, so the issue was solved. It was unpleasant for the person accompanying me, as she's an elderly woman. So please review in order to avoid such misunderstandings in future, as if there was no free room to fix the mistake with, we would have had quite the unpleasant experience. All the best to your team, every single one of them was flawless <3 See you soon!
Everything is fine, but I would prefer no carpeted floor in the room.
Positive: Lovely design, good breakfast Negative: The heating in the room was not quite ideal and the downstairs toilet was broken throughout my stay (5 nights).
Room with balcony. Room small, balcony had no sun. Super good for train station. But stayed in nicer Motel One Hotels in Berlin.
The location is extremly suitable if you want to be absolutely free and operative as a wisiting turist using of the public transport. We used the "Berlin Welcome Card" https://www.berlin-welcomecard.de/en/berlin-welcomecard-variants-glance for 6 days (5 nights). All the other aspects (e.g.: cleanliness, or reception, etc) were excellent too. There are no such overheads like e.g. diverse wellness facilities or other five star extras, and hence the price could remain in the moderate price range. As visitors who wanted to feel the life in Berlin instead of staying between the walls of a wellness hotel, this is a great advantege. So the "Value for money" is extremly high to our experience. ... Actually, this Berlin experience moved us (we are Hungarians from Budapest) to plan a similar visit but to Dresden and Leipzig, again in a Motel One hotel, in the center of these former GDR cities. ... The error recovery attitude of the reception was also excellent, within one or two minutes we got a replacement room, due to a sudden technical error in the heating system: our query was not questionised, and we got no kind of pressure to remain in the original room, they really believed us and the helped us immediately. --- In short, we got a really pleasant stay due to the overall quality of the Motel One hotel, and naturally due to the city itself, including the useful "Berlin Welcome Card".
Perfect - Like always
I had a very comfortable stay in the Motel One Berlin-Bellevue location. I stayed with you previously in 2021 and my positive experience back then + your close proximity to the start line of the Berlin Marathon were my primary reasons for choosing to stay with you again. I very much appreciated your flexibility in providing me with a barrier-free room. I could have improvised with a regular room, but as an amputee it was nice that I was able to remove my prosthetic for the shower. The room was very comfortable, and I enjoyed the stylish lobby area. The fact that there is a bus stop directly outside of your hotel is also a major plus.
The staff at reception were quite incompetent and unfriendly.
Motel One - wie immer top!
Everything was perfect my only comment is that coffee machine will be great in the room.
Very disappointed to be charged so much in excess of the standard price on this occasion. Also the withdrawal of complimentary coffee, a basic provision at most decent hotels conveys a penny pinching meanness. . These two issues along with unsatisfactory room cleaning have left us disenchanted with Motel One. We have stayed several times in your Berlin Tiergarten hotel while visiting friends and have recommended it to others. We will certainly no longer recommend Motel One and will probably look for an alternative hotel for our next visit.
Clean room and simple services and nice view for the train! Lounge was crowded every night but nice and not expensive. Breakfast is also good. Unfortunately you don’t have laundry facilities so I went to the laundry shop by bus. I choose you because of Berlin marathon so I didn’t wonder for my start and finish. Good location!
Great location, easy check in, comfortable mattress. I was surprised there’s no coffee set in the room and the sheets were a bit rough on the skin. We were encouraged to join the hotel membership but found no value in that.
Hol, alles gut!!
It would be great if you offered more men’s bicycles for rent. Most of your bikes are women’s models with relatively small frames, which can be less comfortable for some riders. It would also be convenient if rentals could be booked directly through your website, rather than having to fill out a paper form as is currently required.
The building is nice, Rooms very small, Front desk representatives not friendly
My stay in your hotel was perfect, I am satisfied with the room, it was quiet and the train traffic didn´t a cause any problem to me. It was nice to receive a bottle fo mineral water from the reception for free because the weather was hot. The only thing that was missing in the room was a bottle opener (at least I didn´t find it). The tv screen with swimming fishes was really fine.
Very friendly staff, would have liked a kettle in the room.
nice modern hotel in a lovely and convenient area. Friendly staff but chaos management.
Motel One is really good chain for staying in hotel with a budget. Good beds, decent sized rooms. I especially like Hackescher-Markt location because of its' convinent location close to all the public transport options. One point goes because Motel-One doesn't have fridges in the rooms. That would make a big difference on my stay.
Room clean and comfortable. My third time at this hotel, but first time on street side. I was impressed at the sound proofing. Emergency vehicle sirens were audible, but otherwise nothing. Impressive. Staff friendly.
A modern hotel with all the amenities necessary for a hotel stay. Conveniently located next to a underground station, an excellent bar with a great variety of Gins, very friendly hotel staff.
Everything was as expected despite having the Berlin Marathon the same weekend! Nice room on level 10.
Amazing Hotel and location within Berlin. I stayed at Motel One in Amsterdam before and seriously this Hotel doesn’t disappoint. I would always opt for Motel One in any city where available.
No coffeemaker in room is pitiful. Blanket was too thin. No showercap is annoying.
The staff couldn't have been more helpful, particularly as my bag didn't arrive with me. I really appreciated the letter outside my room telling me it had arrived overnight.
Unfortunately a motel one already a little bit older, it was not as clean as I was used so far from a motel one.
the room was smaller than expected without a lot of space for luggage
The stay was relatively comofortable, in clean surroundings. However not having anything as basic as coffee making facilities in the room was rather inconvenient. Also the clothes hanging space wasn't sufficient for a stay of a few days. The TV was also a weird setup. It was only possible to connect an Android device to the TV display, not an iPhone or Mac. Finally, I spent a rather large amount of time waiting around for the elevator. There has to be a better system for optimising 3 separate elevators so people aren't waiting for one for 5+ minutes.
Alles prima,
It is a newer hotel in a good location, was very clean, and the staff was personable and attentive. However, the room was small and the breakfast was disappointing.
Inexperienced staff, low level of service.
Nice as always. Very disappointing that late check out was not possible even though I asked for it when booking the room. I would have booked a different hotel if I had know what that. Kudos to the housekeeping manager. She was extremely kind and helpful.
Switch on. beOne.

Berlin - Discover all facets of the metropolis in ten Motel One hotels
More than 200 years ago, the poet Jean Paul famously noted: “Berlin is rather a part of the world than a city.” This is more accurate than ever: Berlin is incredibly diverse and exciting. We will be happy to welcome you to our ten affordable hotels in Berlin – after all, each district, each neighbourhood and each hotel is unique.
Our design hotels skilfully reflect the urban influences of their surroundings, beckoning you to relax and be inspired in the cosy lounge chairs made from sophisticated materials. Start the day with a healthy, organic breakfast and end it in a cosy box-spring bed. Free Wi-Fi is a given.
Budget design hotels in Berlin – your Motel One
Years of separation into East and West gave the German capital a unique character. Today, it is a young and creative metropolis bustling with events, a dynamic start-up culture and an international art scene. Of course, it is also the home of two football clubs – Hertha and Union –, delicious döner kebab and currywurst, and the notoriously direct Berlin dialect.
- the Reichstag building near the new central station
- the Museum Island
- the “City West” with its Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church, Kurfürstendamm avenue and the KaDeWe department store
- the remnants of the Berlin Wall, e.g. at Checkpoint Charlie
- the Alexanderplatz square with its soaring TV tower
- and, last but not least, the famous Brandenburg Gate
You’ll need more than one night to take in all these highlights. And the list is far from exhaustive. There's also the Bellevue Palace, Potsdamer Platz, the Berlin Philharmonic, Nikolaiviertel, Hackesche Höfe, East Side Gallery and countless museums. Each of our design hotels is situated right around the corner from something exciting.
On top of all its cultural highlights, Berlin is surprisingly green and full of attractive parks such as the Tiergarten – perfect for an outdoor breakfast. For a slightly different green space, head to Tempelhofer Feld: the former airport now a huge public park right in the city centre. The old runways are playgrounds to wind sport enthusiasts such as street kiters, while the grassland in between is a protected biotope. Typically Berlin!
The different districts of the city all have their own, distinct character: from the elegance of the old west in Charlottenburg to modern art and design in trendy Berlin-Mitte, from the lively alternative scenes of Kreuzberg and Friedrichshain to the multicultural ambiance of Neukölln. Each area is a city in its own right. A leisurely walk through the streets of the capital will take you past historical architecture, original street art and many other influences.
