Hotel Riu Plaza Berlin

The hotel was well located and clean. Just a few minutes walk to public transportation. Breakfast was fantastic, with a lot of variety.

The suite we stayed in claimed to be suitable for 4 people, so we booked for our family of 4. The bed was comfortable, but the sofa bed was horrible. We weren’t expecting much (it’s a sofa bed after all) but it was the old style, extremely uncomfortable kind with a metal frame and thin mattress. The frame was *so* loud any time someone moved even the slightest bit. It was great having two bathrooms, but not particularly family friendly as there were only doors on the toilet. The shower in the master had no door or curtain, thus you could see right into it from the bedroom. The shower in the sitting room had a clear glass door on one side that was viewable from the entry area and sink area and a frosted glass panel on the other side so that if any lights were on you could see the silhouette of the person showering from the sitting room. The amount of privacy would be fine for a couple, but seems lacking for any other types of guests.
