Hotel Augusta

On our arrival the gentleman was gruff and indifferent a stereotypical German greeting. Thankfully this was the exception among the staff. An oddly eccentric throwback to Weimar Berlin, the Hotel Augusta is unapologetically old-fashioned. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, the housekeeping perfect, breakfast is good. Location near ideal for all of Berlin, subways a very short walk away. Not however for anyone with mobility issues. Solid 3 star

We booked three nights. Quiet location ten minute walk to S bahn. Beds comfortable. Clean. The photographs look nicer than our experience. Our room did not look like the pictures! We asked for a balcony room but didn’t get one. Breakfast seventeen euro each, good choice. Curtains do not fit the window so very light. Air con dated. Some of the reception staff were unfriendly and rude. Breakfast staff friendly. Expensive for the quality of our room, particularly the unfriendliness of some of the reception staff was disappointing. On checkout the female receptionist was incredibly rude and unfriendly.

We arrived four hours early, but they still let us have a room since it was done. The room was spacious with two comfortable chairs by the window. The service was excellent, and the breakfast was good, but a tiny bit low on choices. I was a bit tired of meatballs and eggs for breakfast, but I had a lot of fresh fruit and tea to make u up for it. Only real downside with the room was the lack of WiFi, there was one but so low quality that I was disconnected from my web mail.

I was so disappointed at the treatment from this hotel on checkout. I was presented with a bill for room tax not included in the rate and a 50 euro fee for changing a bedsheet. Breakfast is also not included and I would recommend taking it across the street at Reinhardts which is much better value. But even better just avoid this hotel which has no idea of how to treat customers respectfully and just stay at Hotel Henri in the next street instead. Such a pity as some of the staff were nice, but the lady who checked us out was awful and disrespectful and 50 euros for a clean bedsheet is shocking from any hotel, let’s be honest. I could have bought them a new sheet for less than that! In any decent hotel a clean sheet is a basic service.

Really nice hotel, pleasant staff and on a quiet road close to U-Bahn and plenty of restaurants locally, and shopping on K-damm. We had a good room on the ground floor, breakfast was really good and would highly recommend it. And a nice cafe in the Literaturhouse next door as well.

We stayed at the hotel for 5 nights on room 57. The room was clean, spacious, quiet and comfortable. You must climb few stairs from the elevator to the floor. The shower is not hidden ( only glass wall facing the room) so if you need privacy when you take a shower it can be a problem. The hotel is located on the ku dam and there is a u- ban station 100 m from the hotel. The zoo station which has all kind of public transportation is 7 minutes walk. The reception is very efficient and welcoming. The breakfast is good and served in a nice dining room. Overall we recommend Augusta hotel!

Wir waren zum ersten Mal in diesem Hotel und waren total begeistert. Die Lage in einer Seitenstraße des Ku’damms ist optimal und zentral. Von hier aus kann man alle Ziele in Berlin gut erreichen. Die Hotelzimmer sind in einem alten, sehr schönen bürgerlichen Eckwohnhaus untergebracht, in ehemaligen großen Wohnungen, wie ich vermuten würde. Das ganze verbreitet sehr viel historischen Charme und wurde sehr liebevoll und geschmackssicher renoviert und eingerichtet. Wir hatten ein großzügiges Comfortzimmer mit Balkon zum Kurfürstendamm. Dennoch fühlten wir uns bei geschlossenen Fenstern nicht vom Verkehr gestört. Für wärmere Jahreszeiten gibt es im Zimmer eine Klimaanlage, so dass man die Fenster auch im Sommer nicht nachts öffnen müsste, wenn man nicht möchte. Die Einrichtung des Zimmers, aber auch der Flure und der Treppenhäuser hat uns absolut verzaubert. Man fühlt sich in das Berlin der 20er Jahre zurückversetzt und hat das Gefühl, man lebt in der Pension von Fräulein Schneider, der Vermietern von Sally Bowles in “Cabaret“. 😉 Wir haben uns wirklich sehr, sehr wohl gefühlt. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend, das Frühstück von guter Qualität, Sonderwünsche wurden umgehend erfüllt. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder, ab jetzt vielleicht auch regelmäßig.
