Best Hotels near Buckower Chaussee (Berlin), Berlin

In a self-service hotel, first-time guests may have to spend some time and effort to understand it before they can successfully check in. The hotel does not have a front desk, so it is inconvenient to store luggage.

Worst Service i have ever experienced. Hotel was pre paid through 3rd party booking service, upon arrival in the Self check in counter I had to pay for the full reservation again. Since it was late and we needed our room I chose to pay and deal with it later. When confronting the front desk I was met by 2 arrogant guys who couldn't care less to help with the problem and told me that they only had an invoice from the 3rd party booking. I showed them my mastercard transaction and said that they could check the Lobby camera to see that exact time on the check in day I would be in the lobby entering my card details on the Check in Ipad but no help was provided. Afterwards I contacted the Hotel through website with no response so I have just been left with paying twice for a hotel room. I am for sure never using Seminaris ever again.

A budget hotel, to be sure! For that you pay by having no chair in the room, only a vinyl hassock which you’ll need to double as a bedside table; very few electrical outlets, and none by the bed; no full-length mirror (I’m a performer and need one); no counter space by the sink; only ONE HOOK for your towel or to hang your toiletries kit (choose one or the other — not both!); only one pillow; hard mattress; tiny hot & stuffy room. And to add insult to injury, no free coffee or tea (it’s EUR 2.50); breakfast costs EUR 9.50 and offers very few vegan options, not even plant-based milk for your coffee. The woman behind the desk was condescending when I simply inquired about the cost of breakfast and vegan options. I will say the hotel was clean, and walking distance to a lot of cheap restaurants/street food. Will never choose to stay here again, however!

I stayed in the hotel on 8 December for one night with my wife, 3 years old son and 2 months infant daughter. Upon check-in we received an upgrade and a welcome drinks voucher being a Platinum member of Accor. I informed the reception that I would like to have a late check-out up to 2 PM because I will be outside at other part of the city for a meeting and might be late in afternoon. The reception agreed to it and told me that Platinum members have free late check-out. I also asked if the hotel honors Accor Ambassadors and the hotel refused that they are a franchise and they do not. The room given to us was Room 54 and it was good and hot as per the weather condition, 0 degrees outside. The beds were comfortable. After check-in and leaving the luggage in the room, I came to the lobby and I was working on my laptop when my wife informed me by phone that the bathroom was having a bad smell and the shower area had a problem, the water does not drain. I checked it and came back to the reception. The manager herself was available at reception and I informed her about the issue. She said she will get it checked. I went back to the lobby to work on my laptop. Despite complaining, the issue was not solved neither we were given any feedback. Next day I could not take a shower before going to work because there was plenty of water from the previous day. I tried to fix the drainage by myself but the water was taking a lot of time to drain. I left the hotel for the meeting. Around 11:45 AM my wife called me and said that the hotel wants her to check-out. I told her that I will send an email to the reception, if they come again tell them that I sent them an email and if they insist, come to the lobby with the luggage but it was difficult for her to come out with the luggage and the infant at same time. My wife had a health issue and it was not possible for her. I did not had local German calls allowed on roaming. I only had an internet SIM for EU. I excused the Deputy GM of the company I had a meeting with and sent the hotel an email. The Deputy GM asked me if there is a problem and I explained her that the hotel wants my wife to check-out now and being a Platinum member the late check-out is possible and I already had it discussed yesterday. She offered me to talk with the hotel directly using her mobile. She dialed the number and phone was on speaker. The phone was answered by the manager herself. I was told by the hotel that the hotel is fully booked but they lied, I checked later and several rooms of all categories were available including the one I stayed. I made a reservation for the same category of the room I am staying in just to show them that they lied and that the hotel is not fully booked. Reservation was late canceled as cancelation was free until 6:00 PM. I returned to the hotel as soon as I can and we checked-in to another Accor hotel. We are staying in Accor hotels since a long time and we never had such issues. In short the said hotel is

I have never been to hotel like the Fontane! Beyond the physical elements, like the size of the single room (with windows shaped like in a yacht or a cruise ship cabin), the cleanliness, the strong hot water pressure in the shower, through diverse and delicious breakfast, ending with a fair price (you can charge in all conscience a double price). On top of all that, what is heartening is the cordial attitude and willingness to help with solving of unexpected problems that may have occur during a journey, like something that has happened to me. After travelling and staying for two weeks in Dresden, I got late to the Berlin airport by train and missed my flight home. After arriving from the airport, Ihad no problem with cheking in late at night. During a stay of four nights, the reception staff made a great effort in helping me with digital booking of a new ticket to Tel Aviv (I had many technical problems with using my digital platforms). Finally, they have helped me with searching and finding a travel agency in Berlin; without their help, I would not be able to buy a ticket and come back home. The remoteness from the city center of Berlin is a worthy cost of such a great treatment. Thank you! Val Friedman

We were at the ”Hotel Anna 1908” (Steglitz) - Büsingstraße 1 -- for two weeks. Very upscale and swanky. Pleasant staff, very clean, very tidy. Lotsa of under-the-trees outside tables. Made ice for our Camparis-and-Sodas. The parking garage across the Bornstraße -- the cross street -- boasted a Mercedes-AMG S63 coupe -- MSR prices STARTING at $174,150. I convinced Lor that the color was ALL wrong. Phwew. Oh, and also a late-model Ferrari with a transparent engine cover - a F360 Modena, perhaps. When they moved it, they revved it. A lot! Parking must be lucrative. Turns out that there were/are loads of good eating joints within strolling distance ... we didn't get a renta-car.! And a ”Rewe” market with a wide array of red European wines and inexpensive ”Campari”, i.e., $13 a pop. ”Skoal!” ”Prost!” ”Cheers!” ”Ganbei!” Around the corners were the ”Forum Steglitz” and huge ”Boulevard Berlin” ... sorta like malls. Plus the ”Walter -Schreiner-Platz” U-Bahn station. Sells ticket store beer on Sunday, BTW, FYI, FWIW (a lot ... ).

goes so

Good hotel, not really central but with good public communcations just outside. Good enough breakfast, good rooms. The opening times for de the bar and restaurant is a bit short, probably because of covid. The Garage is reasonably priced and feels safe.

We were looking for a half-way cheap decline, which is unfortunately not so easy in Berlin. Eckstein with its about 130,- Euro per night incl. Breakfast seems to be considered here as cheap ... We had a very simple room, but it had everything you need. If it was clean, I might have had less exposure. The room was cleaned every day, but unfortunately very superficial, i.e. old sticks, for example, on the doors or on the bottom of the cord in the bathroom were still there on the fourth day. Since the whole facility has come into the years, the whole thing seemed still untreated. The bed linen were brightly white, but with holes. That's what I've never experienced before. But what was very nice was that our room was on the rooftop and went out to the courtyard and the bathroom had a roof window that lets in wonderful daylight. Breakfast was kept very cheap. But it was all there. The breakfast room is very small in the hotel, the tables are covered for 4-6 people. Fortunately, the room was never really full and we always had a table only for us. It may be a taste thing, but I don't have to sit close to close to with strangers in the morning. Unfortunately, it was partly very noisy because the tables used were immediately decoated and then re-covered and it was clapped and shaped. The staff sprang up and down, which is really crazy in such a mini-room. What was very good is the location of the hotel. Our destinations were more in the west of the city, so we could achieve everything wonderfully without being travelling for hours. From the hotel to U9-Station (Closs street) it is a cat jump. A great shopping street (one of the largest in Berlin, as it turned out) is also accessible by foot bus. The hotel has free Wi-Fi. But the password is not found in the room as it is normal, but you have to ask at the reception. The owner, I think, is already a funny person. But we have not come to meet him closer. The staff was ok, even if something too hectic. I can't recommend this hotel further.
