We stayed two nights at the Holiday Inn Express City Centre. It was the perfect base for activities all around Berlin. Easy to get to between two different subway lines. The breakfast buffet was fantastic. The room was small but sufficient for three people (1 adult, 2 adult sized teens). The area was quiet. A excellent choice for exploring Berlin.

The immediate properties across the road from the hotel were not in keeping with the rest of the street. This stopped us from using the immediate bars and cafes. This did not distract us as there were lots of other restaurants bars and attraction within close walking distance.
