I recently stayed at this hotel and had an amazing experience, thanks to Leire at the front desk. She was super friendly and made me feel right at home from the moment I walked in. Leire went out of her way to help with anything I needed and gave great tips on places to visit and eat. Her warm personality and helpful attitude really made my stay special. If you’re staying here, be sure to say hi to Leire – she’s awesome!! :)

nothing bad for me

A fresh, modern, new-looking hotel with great facilities perfect for an enjoyable stay for a few days. Very comfortable beds, large bathroom and air conditioning available. Location is very good, just a few minutes' walk away from Schöneberg station for easy connections into Berlin city centre. There are a good number of shops, bars and restaurants available nearby too, even if the immediate surrounding area may look a bit rough and ready. Some really nice unexpected touches too - particularly liked the Bluetooth speakers available in the bathroom, and the little basket of games and puzzles if you are bored! Also found the front-of-house staff to be very pleasant and friendly, and housekeeping kindly serviced the room between days too. Would recommend!

Breakfast did seem to be a little on the expensive side (approx. 16 EUR) so didn't opt in myself, think they may have more takers if the price was lower. But other than that, no other problems!

Location was close to public transport, enough restaurants and bars around. Hotel facilities are very nice, in room and lobby. Drinks available. Model of excellence in dog friendliness.

Staff was not friendly: unkind attitude, annoyed looks, and didn't offer more information than the strictly necessary. Some staff at reception and the person at the bar was pretty rude, I have never had so many bad experiences with personnel in a single location. Housekeeping opened our room door without knocking at 9am when checkout was 12. I hope overall staff was having just a bad weekend and that this is not their standard of service now. We had stayed there once before and the experience was different.

Great hotel in an ideal location, very close to public transport and surrounded by plenty of dining options. We were lucky to find free public parking right in front of the hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful. The rooms were equipped with a convenient Bluetooth speaker, both in the bathroom and main room, adding a nice touch.

The bar was opened only the end of the week and only until 11pm although they say everywhere that the bar is 24/7. But there is a really good bar close (15 min walk).

Clean and airy rooms (I had a corner room with floor-to-ceiling windows, which was pretty nice.) Staff were polite if not warm, except for one lady in the breakfast room who spoke good English and was very charming. Quiet and well-located, if in a slightly random parking lot/complex next to Schoneberg station. There is an excellent cafe, Café de Enrico, a five-minute walk away.

There are a few strange things about this hotel. There is no kettle or fridge in the room, which I would expect at this price point. One of the windows had no curtains, so even with a sleep mask I was woken by the light in the morning. I felt these things, though they might seem small, really downgraded my experience of the hotel and meant I wouldn't stay there again.

The room is clean and nice. The design is superb. The beds are very comfortable! Overall, it’s noticeable that the hotel is new and all the furniture is working properly :)

We would really appreciate a small refrigerator. The weather was super hot when we visited and we couldn’t even cool down the water and keep some snacks in the room. Also, a kettle was missing. For visitors that are travelling for a week, such things are must have in hotels.

The beds were very comfortable (we had a double bed which is actually two single mattresses and duvets, perfect for a friends stay), and the location is a couple minutes walk from an S-Bahn station so it was a great base to explore Berlin. The room has Bluetooth for the TV and mirror in the bathroom, so we could have our music playing in the background.

The room is quite small and compact, with not much room unless you're on the bed or standing. The shower was good except that we couldn't figure out how to raise the shower head higher.

Super fresh and beautiful hotel! Very clean and spotless. Friendly staff, nice touches with the huge windows and bluetooth speakers in the tv and mirror. Close to a subway station.

Although close to transportation, the area is not the most central which can't be helped. The pillows were so thin and cheap that I couldn't get very comfortable, I would recommend bringing your own. The cool air didn't work that well. I LOVED that you can opt out of room cleaning and get a drink voucher, however the bar closes quite early so I wasn't able to use them.

Tidiness, very close to the local train, spacious shower and bathroom; good places nearby to eat breakfast or dinner; for the price this is really great place to stay

Lack of room kettle to make morning coffee; the lightning could have been better a bit, sometimes when needed to see something really well, it was too dark; the mirror in the bathroom very far away from the face - not too convenient

This new hotel is only a 20 minute walk from the house David Bowie lived in (late '70s). Very friendly and professional staff. Fun, modern "design" hotel. Very comfortable, affordable and feels luxurious too. Looks exactly like the photo's. I asked for a room with a view, and that's what they gave me. Loved it! Great service. The rooms are modern, spacious, comfortable and clean. The bathroom is fun and clean, has a bluetooh system you can play your own music on (connected to your phone). Sounds great. The shower is a real good one and the bed is good and comfortable. The breakfast is proper, even has options for gluten free. Good coffee! I travel alone, by car, so it's really nice you can get to the hotel easily and park (safe) under the hotel. If you are lucky, you can park on the road by the hotel for free(?). The hotel is located in super short distance of a S-bahn station and near plenty of places to eat, supermarket, a cinema... The wifi in the hotel works great. If I go to Berlin again, I''ll definitely consider staying at The Niu Dwarf again.
