Everything you’ll need to know
A lot of questions always arise before a trip. We have compiled an overview of the most frequently asked questions with helpful answers:
What are the Check In/Check out times?
Your room will be ready to go from 3 p.m. onwards and we ask you to check out by 12 p.m. You are welcome to use the possibility to check in online in advance and thus accelerate the check-in on site. You will receive an invitation by email before arrival.
Self-check-in terminals are available at the hotel.
Can I check in or out earlier or later?
Sure, we'll just check out the situation and if your room is available, you can check in earlier for 30 euros. But if you want to get in between 6:00 and 12:00 (noon), we'll ask you to book for the night before.

What are your cancellation policies?
Our cancellation policy is entirely based on the booked rate. Our daily rate can be cancelled free of charge until 18:00 on the day of arrival and offers you the greatest possible flexibility.
If you choose a non-refundable or early booker rate and want to save 10-20%, you are subject to special cancellation conditions.
- The early booking rate 10% can still be cancelled free of charge up to 3 days before arrival.
- The early booking rate 15% can be cancelled free of charge up to 7 days before arrival.
- The "Stay 3 nights save 20%" rate can still be cancelled free of charge up to 7 days before arrival.
Please note that you will need to provide us with your credit card details when making the booking and after the free cancellation period, an advance payment for the total cost of the room will be charged.
In case of later cancellation or no-show we charge 90% of the total stay (or 90% of the 1st night for daily rate).
What about breakfast?
We offer our guests an excellent breakfast between 6.30 and 10:00 a.m. Delicious coffee and tea specialities, freshly baked goods, a good selection of cold cuts and cheese on top, scrambled eggs and crispy bacon. Or you can prepare your own bowl with fruits and nuts. In line with Berlin's reputation for openness, you will find vegan specialties if that's what you fancy, as well as a hearty selection of sausage, cheese and fish if you're more old-school.
