A disgusting cesspit - avoid at all cost

Very poor hotel standards, including the dirty room, carpets, curtains, smelly bed linen and bathroom (two small threadbare bathroom towels. Only one electrical charging point in the room which was next to the bed and could only be used for one appliance at a time; either to recharge my phone or to plug in the bedside lamp. The appalling condition of the room, bathroom ceiling had stains and evidence of damp. The shower tray had been partly patched with tape and appeared unsafe and I could not bring myself to even take a shower in the hotel and I slept with my clothes on. Although I had booked 5 nights, I could not stay there for another night, the hotel was really disgusting and a disgrace, with Prostitutes operating in the area late at night. In my view not safe for women. I checked out of hotel at 11:00am on 7th September, escorted by hotel staff who knocked on my door and were waiting outside my room. I was charge €132.00 for the one night. Please, please, please avoid this hotel at all cost. I have stayed at many hotels around the world, and written balanced reviews. However, this is by far the worst that I ever stayed and I would not wish this on my worst enemy. I have since read many Google reviews, and would encourage you to do the same. You’ve been warned!

Positives and negatives

Area was sketchy as there were hookers outside close by. The hotel itself was ok but since there was no air conditioning we opened the window and had to listen to the workers from the strip club talking, laughing and arguing all night long. The beds were hard. I slept fine but my friend was very uncomfortable. Bus was right in front of hotel so good access to the rest of Berlin. Lots of places to eat near by. There was no breakfast but there was a coffee machine in the lobby. Overall, I would stay again in cooler weather so I wouldn't have to open the window.

Stay during the week

Great location, lovely staff but there is a Disco next door that we found very loud over the weekend and our earplugs didn’t drown out the sound. The staff tried hard to get the club to turn down their music to no avail. The breakfast is amazing for 7 Euro so if you are staying during the week you should be able to avoid the disco!

Close to Berlin City major attractions.

Only 1 pillow in the room and when I asked for another one they didn’t have any. Reception staff knew very little English. Don’t take that away from them it is Germany Room was ok very warm no fans so had to have window open which faced main road very noisy. The room served its purpose being close to the centre of Berlin attractions.

Noisy, smoke filled, smells.

Everything in this hotel smells like cigarette smoke. There is smoke coming into the halls and room all the time. The hotel is located between a casino and a strip club.The hotel often has teenage groups staying there and they tend to congregate in the halls of all floors smoking and underage drinking without supervision. The staff said that is typical. Rooms are extremely small and three people in a room hardly have anyplace to stand up. Do not stay here if you do not want to choke on smoke.

A perfectly fine cheap hotel, central to all

The Alper Hotel was a perfectly good cheap place to stay when touring around Berlin. As a woman traveling alone, I felt safe and the room was clean and basic. It's not the nicest area in Berlin, but very central. There's a bus stop literally in front of the hotel -- two buses (at least) go through every 10 minutes or so that will take you all the way to Alexanderplatz if you want, and certainly to Potsdamer Platz, from where you can get any place in the city. It's an old hotel, and accommodations basic. But the linens were clean and exactly the same as those at the Leonardo. Great spot for cheap breakfast on the opposite corner, and the hotel across the way has an awesome organic bar and Skandinavian chef for dinner. The hallways did smell a bit of bug spray, and there were some fruit flies hanging out in the bathroom and around the window. But if that's the worst I can say about it...

Seedy and Noisy Area

The hotel itself was ok. However, the immediate area was not good. There were 24-hour strip clubs on either side of the hotel. There was an unacceptable amount of noise all through the night, including a large brawl outside the hotel, presumably from people leaving the strip clubs. The hotel was also located on a busy street, which added to the noise, so I had very little sleep. We arrived at midday, before the check in time of 2pm quoted on the hotels.com website. We were able to leave our bags, but told check in would not be until 3pm. Will not stay here again.
