"Owned by the same lovely people who run the Honigmond Restaurant-Hotel, this is a wonderfully relaxing place to retreat to after a day’s sightseeing. The interiors are an ode to a 19th-century country house style with gilt-framed oil paintings, chandeliers, original wood floors, antiques and iron bedsteads. The largest rooms face the street, but the rear ones overlooking the fish pond and Eden-like garden win in the charm stakes. Considering its prime location close to the main attractions, 15-minutes walk from the city centre, and proximity to the nightlife of Mitte, it’s remarkably good value. " - Matthew Roach
