Lovely hotel – with large balcony!! – nearby bus/S/U-bahn, easy to move around all Berlin. However, it takes 20–30 min to Mitte, but this hotel is still very central in a nice part of Berlin – walking distance to the beautiful streets of Fasanenallee (highly recommended and free! Visit the garden/café at Litteraturhaus if possible), Zoologische Garten, Bikini and KaDeWe (if you prefer shopping). Especially nice area before Christmas, with markets, the KaDeWe window exhibitions and nice streets to walk around in. Recommended.
