A very warm welcome on arrival, friendly staff lovely room with a great view. The bar was lovely for a drink after a busy day. The breakfast was amazing. I would definitely stay here again. The location was great for exploring Berlin being next to one metro and within a short walk of another.

1st time stayed in Scandic Hotel - Loved it!
We really enjoyed staying in this hotel. Cleaned facility, walkable distance to Malls & restaurants & U-Bahn (U2) station, surrounding felt very safe, nice & quiet in the evening, comfy bed, good hospitality, and best of all—- excellent breakfast! We traveled over 40 countries in the past 20 years and stayed in accommodations from AirBnB to 5 stars hotel, this one is worth to mention; we will stay here again next time .

Room was clean and hotel was conveniently located above a U-bahn station.
Room was very basic, rates were expensive and hotel was extremely busy, meaning breakfast etc was a chore. Online presence makes the hotel appear like a boutique, individual property but is actually a hige conference hotel with thousands of rooms. No obvious Scandinavian influence other than some poor decor.

the staff was friendly and helped all our needs. the bathroom was pretty dirty. the shower still had hair from the previous people all over the floor and on the shower head. The bed was a little uncomfortable and the AC not going low was definitely a little difficult. The staff were extremely helpful though and the location was perfect for us

Staff could not have been more helpful, extremely polite. The breakfast selection catered for everyone and plenty of choices. The only slight negative is hotel room floor could have done with a thorough clean, dusty in places.

My stay at Scandic exceeded all expectations. The hotel is clean, quiet, and conveniently located near the U and S trains. The staff were exceptional; communication was seamless, and their service was incredibly accommodating. Cameron, who checked me in, was both kind and understanding. Since my room was ready ahead of time, I was able to check in early, drop off my luggage, and explore the city right away. One evening, my ‘Do Not Disturb’ sign was misplaced in the hallway, but the staff quickly provided a replacement, even late at night (around 10 pm). I truly appreciate the hospitality and comfort during my stay, and I will definitely return the next time I’m in Berlin!

A good choice.
The Scandic is generally a good choice.
We travelled with our two kids and booked a room with bunk bed for the little ones. The room was spacious and clean. As the hotel name suggested we expected Scandic design, which we like. However, we could have done without the IKEA quality as some of the furniture had visible signs of wear. The old school bath tub with a half glass water screen and the fixtures in the bathroom didn’t help the impression of a slightly dated hotel. Nothing shocking, but also nothing to write home about.
The price was ok though, so I shouldn’t complain too much.
The service was very good, courteous and always helpful.
The location is excellent with easy access to public transportation.
The breakfast buffet deserves a honorary mentioning: excellent!! Don’t miss it!
A lot of choice. Good quality produce. From scrambled eggs, to sunny side up, or hard boiled eggs or even soft boiled eggs. A station to juice fresh fruit to your liking. A kids station. Pancakes. Salmon. Fruit bar. Proper coffee (cappuccino, etc). Flaky croissants… and much,
much more!
