Hotel-Pension Funk

Beautiful building with original features. Our room had an enormous window and the classic furniture made it feel like a really unique place to stay. It’s located within the fancy side of town, with shops like Ralph Lauren and Marco Polo so it felt very safe when arriving back late. Great bakery, coffee shop a few doors down. Plenty of restaurants within walking distance. We visited in late October and so there wasn’t many bars open near the hotel but it was really easy to get to the centre of Berlin from here. About a 3minute walk to a U-Bahn station where it’s a short, maybe 5 minute ride to the other areas of Berlin.

Absolutely unique hotel with lots of character and ambiance. Friendly staff, great location and comfy rooms. The former residence of silent film star Asta Nielsen, the decorations were very reminiscent of the 1930s. I would highly recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again!

If you love to stay at authentic places with a good story, you'll love this place. Large rooms with high ceilings, basic but good shower facilities, big windows with long curtains, floorboards, comfortable beds, good wardrobe space, decent breakfast. Our room had a couch in it too. My friends and I loved it and would come back. Thank you

"Funky" can be defined as a cool, Sixties hippie place, or a place so stanky your Mom would run away from it in minutes. Make sure you know which one you want, before you stay here.|To me, it looked like the home of the Addams Family. Dark hallways, missing or broken bulbs in most fixtures. I stayed for a few nights and then left town and then came back. I asked for a different room because the bed in the first room was too short for an adult. I came back a second time because the hotel refused to waive any of my pre-payment deposit, which I requested because I am partially disabled and my condition had flared up, and the elevator does not go to the ground floor all the time. The long stairway was very difficult for me. Towels were shabby. Internet doesn't work well. There was loud noise every night from 5 to 8 from the floor above. Poor heating. One day I returned to the room and the cleaning staff had left it unlocked all day. Breakfast was standard. You have to ask for shower and bathroom amenities. There was a dirty bottle in the room when I checked in. Most important is that I do not think that there are smoke alarms in the rooms! |The location is great, with restaurants all around.

This is a very old, historical hotel. I was impressed with the reasonable rates. Our room was beautiful and the architectural details were amazing. It is important to know what you are getting in to before you commit. To use the toilet we had to go across the hall (not a big deal) but the toilet room was right next to the office of the hotel. There was a shower in our room, but not a bathtub. It is not separated from the room at all, which was a problem for us and we had mixed gender family members traveling together who did not want to shower in front of each other. If you sat in certain locations in the room you could see everything happening in the shower by looking at the mirror. So, I would recommend this type of room for a couple, or for people with not modesty needs. The breakfast was good, adequate, but not fabulous. The hotel is located in a nice neighborhood. We felt safe. I would stay there again, because I loved the non cookie cutter feel of it, but I would probably try out a different room to see if the privacy situation might be a little better.

I stayed with my girlfriend back in June and absolutely loved it! The location and staff are both brilliant it's clean and the breakfast is great. After a long week of walking around Berlin we needed a rest and spent most the day in the hotel and never got bored it's a time capsule a wonderful place. Everyone was so attentive also. Next time I'm in Berlin I will be staying there.

A wonderful hotel with a soul in which you can feel the warmth of a family home. The friendliness of the hosts and staff is at the highest level. You feel like you're in a movie from a bygone era because everything exudes memories and antiques. Excellent location, very kind host who will help you and give you all the information regarding transportation and places you want to visit. In the hotel, I met people who have been coming for years and are regular guests of the hotel. All recommendations for this hotel that exudes some mysterious life. When you step into it, it's like you've stepped into a movie from the past

I loved my stay here. It's a quiet place that is walking distance to all kinds of neat stuff. Nice old furniture, good yogurt for breakfast. Don't expect American style amenities. We had a very small room with more of a cot than a full bed, but I saw than nicer rooms were decked out as suits. The staff was pleasant at check in.
