MEININGER Hotel Berlin Central Station

Located right next to the train station. About a 15 minute walk to Brandenburg Gate. This hotel seemed more like a huge hostel with tons of young people and many large groups of teenagers, which seems to be the clientele they cater to. The staff was friendly and responsive to questions and recommended a free walking tour which was great! There is a community kitchen and washer dryer. The laundry facilities were a bit pricey (about $9 to wash and dry one load), but very handy for us. It was very hot during our visit and there is no air conditioning so the only way to “cool” you room was to open the widows. Unfortunately, the hoards of young people partying in the lobby area, as well as the noise from the train station, made it too loud to keep the windows open and quite honestly offered little relief from the heat. Additionally, the room was not particularly inexpensive, so should I find myself in Berlin again, I will look elsewhere for my accommodations.

Everything was great! The room was very clean and comfortable. The livation was perfect - right by the main train station. The staff was very nice.

For the price I paid, I can call it not worth a stay, it's a very budget hotel with nothing in the room not even a fridge, the checking out time is 11am and I never come across this type of timing. breakfest is so so and the breakfast is the most normal type. The only good is te staffs are friendly and always trying to help, the location is good right opposite te Hauptbahnhof. Still worth a stay for only a night or 2.

Great hotel in a great position - convenient for everything really. It’s a basic hotel but clean tidy and reasonably priced.

The staff was wonderful, breakfast was great, however the rooms do not have air conditioning. During my stay the temperatures were in the 90s, so air conditioning would have been appreciated.
