Ellington Hotel Berlin

The hotel ticks all boxes except they had closed the bar, lounge and restaurant for a private event! No other arrangement had been made for their guests. We only booked this hotel for the bar and had invited people for a pre dinner drink. When I asked what the alternative was I was told room service?? A very ‘caring’ answer from the duty manager especially since there were 6 of us. Imagine 6 Adults in a standard room??

Bar and restaurant closed for a private event

Good for one night stay

Rather rude receptionists, only the guy who brought tea to the room was friendly..

The restaurant staff was nothing but helpful and very kind, considering we were sick so they helped us get the meal we needed. We needed different cables to connect the computer to the TV, the hotel supplied them really easily, which was good and useful.

The attention at the reception, the check-in. I asked for an early check in with a large bed, they gave us a twin room at 11am, so we had to wait until 3pm to get a room with a large bed. The receptionist didn't even apologize for the mistake, was kinda rude. The design of the deluxe room is very uncomfortable. The shower spills water everywhere and there are no electric plugs on the right side of the bed or near the TV (just one for the TV).
