Really good Dining Experience

“I had the pleasure of dining at the hotel's restaurant, Foreign Affair, and it truly surpassed my expectations. The variety of dishes was excellent, and the ambiance made for a good evening. The pasta buffet on Saturday was a standout-perfect for carb-loading before the race I was participating in. I also appreciated the discount voucher for food that was provided upon check-in.” view full review

The rooms were quite spacious and had modern decor, providing a comfortable retreat.

I recently had a pretty decent stay at Arcotel John F Berlin. The location is prime, close to many attractions and surrounded by great cafes. My room was spacious and quiet, but the decor felt a bit dated. Despite the friendly staff, I ran into a few bumps with service, as they didn't always seem super attentive. Overall, it's a good spot for a short city break if you're looking for something practical and central.
