Axel Hotel Berlin - Berlin

Topp opphold. Vennlig betjening, som var hjelpsomme når jeg hadde spørsmål. Nærhet til U-bahn, buss og annen kommunikasjon. Toppetasjens utendørs boblebad, gav en annerledes utsikt over bydelen på kveldstid. Romløsningen var spennende, og syntes ikke det var negativt med glassflater inn mot badet. Ikke bråk om natten der jeg bodde, og grei tilgang til […] trådløst internett. Prismessig noe i øvre skikt for Berlin, men kjekt å ha fått Axel med som en hotellerfaring. Kommer gjerne igjen. I det hele et hotell jeg vil anbefale, spesielt for mennesker som trives i lag med homofile. Les mer

Hotellet er ganske nytt og fint og ligger mitt i homsestrøket i Berlin, som har alle fasiliteter. U-bahn går ikke langt unna heller, så det er lett å komme seg rundt. Hotellet har hyggelig betjening og fin spa avdeling i toppetasjen som egner seg best for menn ;) Ellers er hotellet heterofriendly.

Perfekt beliggenhet - deilig atmosfære og godt avslappende sted å være! Trening og velvære-fasiliteter gir mange plusspoeng, musikk en nattklubb verdig i frokostområdet fra kl. 07 gir minuspoeng...

dette er ett gayhotell i berlin, meget god komfort på rommet, lekker frokost,

Dette er en hotel for homser. Men hetrovennlig. Utrolig fint hotel. Eneste ulempen med hotelet er på påsketiden er det mye rart som skjer rundt i hotelet. Siden de kaller leather man samles i Berlin. Rengjøring er utrolig dårlig service. Men De på resepsjonene utrolig serviceminded ..................Beligheten er perfekt med transport.

Hotellet har fin beliggenhet, men ligger like ved en svært trafikert bilvei. Hotellet er nytt, og har veldig fint interiør. Rommene derimot var svært upraktiske. Det var ikke noe sted for oppbevaring av klær etc. Baderomsløsningen var noe merkelig. Det var en åpen løsning mellom rom og bad, og dermed ikke noen dør en kunne lukke dersom en ville det. […] I tillegg var det en glassvegg ut mot gangen, og der var det et speil, slik at det var helt umulig å dusje uten å bli observert. Sikkert noen som liker dette, men det ble litt i overkant. Personalet i resepsjonen var "sure". Det var vanskelig å få strykjern, noe et fire stjerners hotell burde hatt på alle rom (måtte vente over et døgn for å få det). Vaskepersonalet tror visst at penger på nattbordet er tips, allerede fra første dag, så dersom du ikke vil gi ekstra tips, så ta ned deg ALT av penger dersom du skal ha rommet vasket! Evt lås det inn i safe. Dersom det ikke er gjort, vil det være borte når du kommer tilbake. Rommet skulle også inneholde shampo og dusjsåpe, men disse var brukte, og ikke byttet ut. Sjekk om du har fått en "hel" flaske før du bruker den. Vi kommer ikke til å benytte oss av dette hotellet ved senere besøk til fantastiske Berlin. Les mer

Hotel oppholdet på Axel Hotel stod til langt over forventningene til et opphold på hotel i Tyskland. Nærheten til KaDeWe var praktisk da SAS greide å rote bort kofferten...KaDeWe er et Tysklands mest kjente shopping magasin som har ALT. Nærhet til U- Bahn stasjoner og annet gjorde dette til et hotel som jeg absolutt kan anbefale til alle som skal til […] Berlin for å gjøre byen. Nå sier hotellet i sin slogan at de er "straight friendly" noe som nok gjenspeiler at de aller fleste gjester på hotellet var nettopp "gay".....Bra stemmning og flott design gjorde dette til et besøk som jeg gjerne vil raskt tilbake.

I had a difficult jet-lagged first night at Hotel Axel in a room where the walls were very thin and my noisy neighbor was up all night. I spoke with the front desk the next morning and they switched my room to a slightly larger, more comfortable, and much quieter room. The smaller rooms here are very small, just enough room for a bed and shower. I recommend […] spending a little more money for a larger room or taking one of the suites at the corner of the hotel. The spa was clean and nice and although the hot tub was barely lukewarm, you can sit outside and take in Berlin from it. The clientel was very international and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The surrounding neighborhood is similar to the Castro in San Francisco with a central U-Bahn station a block and a half away. Les mer

Axel Hotel gives a very good quality of service and cleanliness. The staff are friendly and helpful. It is ideally located for shopping such as KaDeWe, Peek & Cloppenburg. Two minutes from U Bahn (Wittenbergplatz). Stayed there twice. Enjoyed both occassions.

Me and my girlfriend booked a short trip to Berlin and booked the Axel based on price and location and pics/standard of hotel. We were not disappointed in any way on the above. We didnt notice until we googled the hotel that its Berlins premire gay boutique hotel. We are a couple in 30s and not an issue to us but it may be for others. The spa was an […] eye opener and not for the faint hearted, lets just say swimwear was very much optional! Great hotel though and staff were brill, as a hetro couple we didnt feel out of place and would def return. Les mer

Really luxurious but friendly with it!

Very good location, comfortable room and good facilities.Only one problem - our room was not cleaned one day despite the 'Please Clean my room' tag being left on the door handle - seemed to be a problem with the entire floor because we noticed several rooms in the corridor still had their 'Please Clean room' tags out when we returned to the hotel that […] evening. Thereafter we made it a point to remind reception of the problem and there was no repeat of the incident. Also would suggest to management that it would be good to have a kettle for tea/coffee in the rooms. Otherwise it was a pleasant stay. Les mer

The hotel is great - particularly the 2 guys on reception who were excellent (which is more than can be said for my last visit - but fortunately we didn't see the lady in question at all during our stay this year!). We had a problem with some noisy a/c - and were immediately offered a room change (and upgrade) which was a great help. Fantastic location […] too - 3 mins walk from KaDeWe. Les mer

Nice hotel, good service. Expect wifi didn't work to well

I found the Staff to be very nice and would rec staying there. I enjoyed my time in Berlin at this hotel.

Axel is comfortable, practical and stylish, yet not pretentious. Staff is efficient, friendly and accomodating. Nice cafe/bar and great location... in terms of neighborhood, but also subway. The wifi is free in rooms and the jacuzzi bathtub was very comfortable in the room.

Great value for mid week. Plush room, small but well formed. Nice jet tub. Good bed and curtains kept out light so slept brilliantly. Wifi worked fine in room on 5th floor. Only for the brave hetero I think - lots of cruisey older guys around. Would stay again mid week but too pricey for my liking at full summer rates, would spend my money going out […] at More for example. Les mer

There is a reason I keep going back to this hotel--it's outstanding. The hotel is incredibly clean, the staff is friendly, and you just can't beat the location. But the best part of the hotel really is the staff. I'm convinced that this hotel doesn't hire ugly people. Everyone is attractive. But they're also friendly, helpful, and efficient. The Axel […] hotel is right in the heart of Berlin's gay neighborhood and it's less than two blocks from a major U-Bahn station. This hotel bills itself as a "heterofriendly" hotel. But they know where their bread is buttered. They cater to the gay and lesbian community. Les mer

we stayed for 4 nites and loved it. a great hotel and great location. the front desk people all spoke English, and were very helpful!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Axel Hotel. The staff is courteous, professional, warm, and extremely responsive and helpful. The overall atmosphere is contemporary yet inviting, and the "feeling" is upbeat, open, and relaxing. This was our fourth stay. Rooms are quiet, comfortable, and climate-controlled. One would be hard pressed to find a better […] location in relation to shopping, nightlife, and access to the U-Bahn/S-Bahn system. We also highly recommend the restaurant/bar and spa facilities. Les mer

The staff was great, the hotel was in a central location, and I LOVED our room. But this is a gay men's hotel. If you're not male, don't expect open arms from the majority of the cliental.But I would stay here again.

It is not exactly a gay hotel perse, but indeed very gay friendly and cater to a mostly gay client base. The hotel itself is chic and nicely designed. The location is great, aside from just next to Berlin's gay ghetto, it is also very close to Berlin's most famous department store - KaDeWe.

our room was very comfortable, especially the bed! I was surprised to find we had a (very small) balcony with space for two chairs, but as i wasn't expecting it, it was a nice surprise. the bathroom facility's were a little crammed in, but of a very high standard, the shower particularly was very large and enjoyable. There are bars and restaurants close […] by who are very used to tourists, also the U-ban station is very close. the spa was good, but the jacuzzi was a little cold, perhaps later in the summer it would be more pleasant Les mer

Great Gay hotel in the hearth of activities. Easy to get to and get around. All the adventures lie just outside your doorsteps

Excellent and in convenient gay location and easy to get to by Metro or Bus. Great service from friendly and helpful staff. BEST deal is for a inexpensive Hop on Hop off bus ticket from front desk. Valid for two days for a narrated bus tour in 16 languages, stopping at ALL the sites you want to see in Berlin. Stay on or get off at any point and hop […] back on when done. Bus starts near the hotel. I will use this hotel each time in Berlin as the location is right in the middle of one of Berlin's admired Gay district with all the venues you would want to visit. Les mer

The hotel is in a great location and very easy to find using the train services. The hotel itself was very really good. Very polite service at reception (Chris) and very clean throghout. rooms again very clean and maid service kept the standards up. rooms were very well stocked with everything you require for a relaxed stay. When we booked we did not […] realise this is a gay hotel and has a gay/camp feel throughout, this was not made very visable when we booked. However saying that we had no problems with it being gay. Only word of warning for future guests using the spa area be warned you may find plenty of naked people in there. Overall we both really enjoyed the hotel and Berlin. Thank You. Les mer

I expected the hotel to be in a much more desirable location, however it was far from much of the action. It is certainly a gay hotel, but closer to the older gay neighborhood and a lot of bath houses, leather bars and other bars frequented by an older crowd. If that is your cup of tea, then this place is perfect for you. It is not mine, so I should […] have stayed closer to Mitte or another neighborhood. Les mer

The employees are very friendly. The hotel has its charm, there is a lot of black colors begin used. The might dust better, serious, there was a layer of dust.. One bathrobe in a two-persons room is a bit less. Great sauna and steam room, keep up and blind the windows so that the neighbors do not look in. Free use of internet on two computers. Next […] step is free internet in the entire hotel. Les mer

I would highly recommend this hotel. Not only is it conveniently located to many restaurants, the metro and places to go but the staff are extremely helpful. This is my first time in Germany and Berlin and they made sure I was informed of how to use the metro and places to go and eat etc. Plus it has so much more to offer. The outdoor jacuzzi, the nice […] steam room and sauna allowed me to transition into my vacation easily. Les mer

The Axel Hotel advertises itself as Heterofriendly. This is a gay hotel, through and through. And given its location, it's in the perfect spot. It's right in the heart of Berlin's Schoeneberg neighborhood. The rooms are contemporary and very comfortable. The staff was exceptional. They were able to help with just about anything, including ideas for […] shopping and dinner. The hotel is a short block away from the Wittenbergplatz UBahn station. Again, that makes the location superb. Les mer

Great Hotel , Good location . Staff very friendly and helpful.

All what you nead for short stay

a very stylishly decorated place, we enjoyed that very much. nice helpful staff. free internet- very important! the neighbourhood is central and safe. but at evenings (after 22:00) there is nothing to do. our room was very comfy, the bed was great. the shower was excellent apart for two annoyances- every minute or so the water turned really hot or […] really cold for a second. also there was a leak from the shower to the hallway of our room. overall a great experience!! we recommend it dearly. Les mer

Compared to the Buenos AIres Axel, this place is is ae people a has been. If the price is right, stay. I would stay ere again for a good rate. I somehow think a star fell off of the wall somewhere along the way and it is no where near a four star hotel. Basic and comfortable, but no services. Th front desk clerks (and I mean each one of three, there […] is usually only one) seem like they should work at the Motor Vehicles Department. They don;t look at you when they talk, they are unfriendly, and seem bothered. I should say there was one exception, who was friendly. At one point in the early morning, I called down to leave a wake up call and no one ansered the phone after severl tries spread out over 15 minutes. I had to go down to the lobby and wait for the busy clerk to show up. NOT GOOD> Rooms are small yet sufficeint... towels are freyed and the ads are better than the place itself. DO not expect the same quality as the BA property...or the same attitudes. This is more of a motel, than a hotel... in the US sense. Les mer

Great full-service hotel, centrally located to one of the gay districts in Berlin. Decor was very modern and chic, if perhaps a bit too black. But I was upgraded to a suite upon arrival and it was the best hotel experience I've had. Whirlpool tub AND a separate shower with rainwater faucets. Over a block away from KaDeWe and the Gedaechtsniskirche on […] the K-Damm. Les mer

To begin, this hotel is "Hetero-Friendly" and they advertise that with the shirts they wear. If you have a problem with gay people, it's best to look elsewhere. The hotel rooms are nice and large by European standards. The shower is nice, they use Villeroy and Boch sinks, Bang & Olufsen phones. Everything is in black, and the counter top for the bathroom […] sink had been damaged upon installation or by another customer. The screws had started coming up through the bottom. It didn't bother me, just something I noticed. The BIGGEST complaint that I have is the fact that they charge 9 Euro for internet services. This is HORRIBLE and the first that I've come across in Europe. I'm sure there are other hotels that charge, but I happened to stay at this one and I think it's ridiculous! That's the only hit that I would give this hotel. Other than that, things are good for a solo traveler or a couple. One note...if you're traveling with friends, this may not be the place. There is no privacy for the shower from inside the room. Les mer

Staff was very helpful. Rooms are styled well but small. My only improvement is that Wi Fi should be complimentary. the service was too slow to pay the fee requested.

The location in the gay neighborhood was great! Lots of fun in the local bars and clubs literally next door. Spa was "ok" - jacuzzi was cold and steam room wasn't really working... shower was large enough for 4 people! but bathroom area is small and not very private. I would stay here again...but would check rates for nearby hotels before booking […] . Les mer

We loved the Axel Hotel! The location is perfect. The front desk staff is both extremely friendly and very helpful -- they know the ins and outs of navigating the city, how to find the best restaurants, and where the best nightlife it. The room was a bit small, and the bathroom presents "challenges" for those sharing a room with other than a signifiant […] other, but these are small prices to pay. I will gladly stay at the Axel again on my next visit to Berlin. Les mer

This hotel was great .

It has been noted before, but I will repeat it. Hotel Axel is a lovely "heterofriendly" property in the western center of Berlin. Perfect location, nice, attentive staff. And I personally found the red glass wall looking into the shower to be quite sexy. Yes a small room, but not uncommonly so. When I say it needs a bit more function, I mean like hooks […] for hanging bathrobes, and perhapes a few more hangers. All of that said, I would definitely stay there again. Les mer

With the perfect location for anyone,and even better if you are gay, we loved our stay at the Axel. We were a short walk from shopping at the famous KaDaWe department store and the Metro. The room was comfortable and sexy (ask to overlook the garden area). Great lenins and a sexy bathroom shower area. Front desk staff were alll charming and helpful. […] Drinks at the bar were relaxed and enjoyable. Great food just a block away (Des Artists) and the Axel even hosted an event wiht great food on the patio. We would go back again and again. Location , location, location is the best. Les mer

Housekeeping was awful. They do not dust or change linens.

It started crap and didnt get better. I booked a Junior Suite and the young reception staff didnt believe me even though i had the booking. The hotel i s very over priced some staff were ok but in general got more help from people walking past the hotel. The so called suite was very small and over priced the finish is in black to hide the poor finish […] and bad design. In short it is over priced small rooms no atmosphere and poor staff. Les mer

The reason I had booked this hotel was the fact that it was a Gay new Hotel with a great reputation. I booked a superior room with King size bed for my partner and I for reason I don't think I need to go into. On entering the room it was two singles pushed together. Was told couldn't change as was fully booked. I personally don't think that was true […] as the hotel was quiet no one around in the bar/lounge area or in the restaurant. So the short break was ruined for that reason. I also have to say that there was no tea or coffee facilities in the room. Again unusual for a 4 star hotel and the only other thing that was the fact that the room had very little storage for clothes and ended up leaving most of it in the overnight bag. Otherwise very nice to look at and be in just a shame about the room. Les mer
