The facilities are great. Nice breakfast however expensive. We had a 5 night reservation but asked for a refund after 2 very uncomfortable hot relatively sleepless nights. I don’t recommend this hotel in the heat of the summer. While the dining and public spaces remain cool, rooms have basically zero cooling due to their environmental standards. I was told at reception to keep the curtains shut during the heat of the day and open windows at night. Are you serious? Ok, the price seemed good but I still paid good money expecting to stay comfortable. So, if you want to stay cool in the summer, do not book a room at Scandic. The staff did help us by offering a new room near the center of the hotel, away from sunny windows but even that wasn’t good enough for us. Granted, it was 30+/90+ outside but there was no relief in the room. I brought a travel fan which got me through 2 nights but my family cooked. It was a really nice room but would have been way nicer had it been able to stay cool. Their system will only cool 3-6 degrees below the outside temperature. If it’s 32C out, that still means 26 in the room…but our room never got below 28.5!!! Call me a spoiled American but I’ve had more comfort in a $6 room in Thailand. Do not book scandic in the summer and I’m wondering how cold it is in the winter. In the end, we got a refund for 3 nights and we stayed cool at the Marriott Potsdamer platz which I highly recommend.
