Aspria Berlin Ku’damm

I've been to a few high-end gyms and spas, but Aspria Ku'damm genuinely blew me away. It's not just a place to work out; it's like this amazing bubble of calm right in the middle of Berlin. First off, the gym floor is fantastic. They've got all the latest gear, and there's plenty of space so you're not constantly bumping into people. I love their classes too – everything from really tough spin to super relaxing yoga. But where this place really shines is the spa area.The different saunas and steam rooms are great, and there are these awesome relaxation areas where you can just chill out. Plus, they have a big roof terrace that's perfect on a sunny day. What really makes the difference, though, is the staff. Every single person I've encountered has been so friendly and helpful. They're always on top of things. It just feels luxurious and well-maintained without being stuffy. The location is also very good. It's super central, just off Ku'damm, but tucked away enough that it feels really private and peaceful. Honestly, if you're looking for a top-notch wellness experience in Berlin, you have to check out Aspria Ku'damm. It's worth every penny, and I always leave feeling completely refreshed and re-energized. It's a solid 5-star experience for me.

I have stayed at other hotels in this chain – for example in Hamburg – and always experienced excellent service, friendliness, and even thoughtful extras like a personalised fitness plan. Unfortunately, this location was the complete opposite.||||Misleading booking: No mention on the English website that the pool was closed. This was only revealed after booking, in the confirmation.||||Unprofessional behaviour: The Food & Beverage Manager raised his voice at guests in the bistro and publicly reprimanded staff. Failing technology (POS system) is never an excuse for rude or disrespectful behaviour.||||Room and facilities: Outdated room, weak air conditioning (the hallway was cooler than the room), and in the spa area the basic FKK rules were ignored – everywhere swimwear and even smoking.||||No real solutions: A fan offered as a “solution” for the poor AC, but no genuine compensation provided.||||Dismissive email response: My written complaint was met with cherry-picked arguments, avoiding the real issues and failing to take responsibility.||||This hotel feels like a “big learning opportunity” for management – unfortunately at the guests’ expense.

Amazing place for working out and relaxing. And very family-friendly with many great offers for kids. I love to go there with my son. And we enjoy going to the restaurant after his classes and my workout. The staff is very kind and kids friendly - especially Kevin. Also a pleasure when he is working!

TL;dr Disappointing, unprofessional, and misleading. Sadly this includes non-functional AC, non-functional windows and smoking in the outdoor Spa, incl. cannabis. And that at +/- 300 euros/night. Run down, mouldy and just cheap. No customer care and still emailing about the promised refund. Now entering 4 weeks of emailing. This hotel feels like a “big learning opportunity” for management – unfortunately at the guests’ expense.

During a recent visit to Berlin, I tried Aspria Berlin Ku’damm for one week. I’m based in Los Angeles, where I normally work out at Orangetheory Fitness, which focuses on group-based cardio, strength, and interval training. With that in mind, I was mainly looking for facilities that supported active cardio workouts — treadmill, rowing, and weights. Overall impression: Aspria Berlin Ku’damm is a premium fitness and wellness club in a prime location on Ku’damm. It features spacious training areas, modern equipment, and a wide variety of classes (yoga, cycling, HIIT). The highlights are a bright 25m indoor pool, an extensive spa and sauna area, and a rooftop terrace for relaxation. Families are well catered for with the Aspria Academy, family pool/sauna times, and there’s also a restaurant, co-working spaces, and even a boutique hotel on-site. Areas for improvement: Climate in training rooms – This was my biggest issue. The workout rooms were uncomfortably warm, making high-impact cardio nearly impossible. Windows can only be opened by staff, and while portable AC units are placed at the entrances, they were rarely switched on. With outside temperatures around 80°F and direct sun through the windows, the rooms quickly overheated. When I asked a trainer for help with the AC or windows, I was told, “I am not responsible for that,” which was disappointing. In situations like this, staff should take initiative rather than send clients searching for the right person. Thankfully, another trainer was more helpful, but this is definitely an area for improvement. Cleaning of equipment – I noticed very few members cleaned their machines after use. Spray and paper towels are available, but disinfectant wipes would be a more convenient solution. In addition, cleaning after use should be mandatory and supervised by staff. Phone use in training rooms – Several people were talking on their phones while using equipment, which was distracting. Clearer rules around phone use in training areas would help maintain a focused workout environment. Shower supplies – The body wash/soap in the showers was empty on multiple occasions. This should be checked and refilled daily. Summary: Aspria Berlin Ku’damm is a beautiful, well-equipped club with excellent facilities, but I believe attention to climate control, hygiene practices, staff responsiveness, and amenities maintenance would significantly enhance the member experience.

We liked the location and the fitness/spa facilities. Very good and healthy breakfast and lovely team at the bistro and reception.

Aspria Berlin is a wonderfully relaxing and enjoyable experience. I’m not aware of any other place like it. The weight and workout rooms sand equipment are very well stocked, and assistance is available. The pool is surprisingly large, accommodating both swimming enthusiasts and those interested in just a quick dip. The saunas are cozy and comfortable — and very hot! I’ve had a membership and enjoyed the friendly, open ambiance in winter as well in summer. Any time of the year is a good time to visit Aspria.The staff could not be better — always friendly, , welcoming, and helpful. The entire Wellness area is an oasis of calm and restfulness. Membership rates are very reasonable. The location is great — attractive and easy to get to, If you're going to be in Berlin on business or on holiday, set your sights on Aspria. The locals know it and have made rhe club very popular.

My family and I have been going to Aspra for about 3 years now and I can’t complain. Their staff are very welcoming and eager to assist you whenever necessary. I had the luck of having an afternoon training routine with the lovely Daniela Tobal. She was thorough with her explanation and follows up on my progress whenever she sees me. I now have my desired weight and feel much healthier than ever! Thank you Aspria!
