I stayed 17 nights at Monbijou in July-August 2025. The positives: the location, the very friendly staff at the 24x7 reception, flexible housekeeping schedules, the soundproofing of my room, a lovely library-bar, a fitness studio (sadly, I had no time to actually use the last two), a safe in every room, and an elevator that always functioned. The negatives: I was told I was being upgraded to a double room since I was staying so long, but the double room was literally pocket-sized and impossible to move in, without bumping into something. Also and this made it worse - it was DARK. DARK curtains (and no net curtains) that couldn't be left open since there would be no privacy (my room literally overlooked a terrace garden where there were gardeners and others at work, as well as other rooms) and very few tiny, dim bulbs. And a TV that didn't work but that didn't bother me much. Otherwise a great hotel. I'll definitely check in there again but ONLY if there are privacy curtains / blinds to let in natural light and lots and lots of bulbs !
