Alright, this will be a somewhat atypical review for what turned out to be an atypical trip. Let’s start with the usuals: the location is fantastic—tucked away just enough to shield you from the busy traffic, yet all the must-see spots are within walking distance. The building feels grand and spacious, with a somewhat understated interior. As a photographer couple, we particularly loved the photo art in the bar and smoking lounge—be sure to check it out. The temporary photo exhibit on the fall of the Berlin Wall was an unexpected bonus. Speaking of the bar: it has a great atmosphere, but sitting close to the bar itself can get noisy. Whisky lovers (guilty!) should definitely check out the Dalmore collection. The spa, housed in the former bank vault, was clean but small, featuring a sauna and a steam bath. As is often the case in Germany, bath clothing isn’t mandatory. The pool, however, is a must-see—beautifully designed and worth a visit. Our room was very spacious and clean, albeit with a minimalist design. A word of advice: don’t pay extra for the “city view.” We received it as a free upgrade, but apart from a lot of scaffolding, there wasn’t much to see. Breakfast was wonderful, offering a great combination of buffet and menu options. The quality of the sparkling wine was surprisingly good—far better than the usual offerings at breakfast buffets. Now for the unusual part: I woke up on the first morning with abdominal pain unlike anything I’ve ever experienced. Long story short: an ambulance ride to the hospital, 11 hours of waiting, and treatment for what turned out to be kidney stones. It was quite an ordeal for my wife as well, but I have to give a HUGE shoutout to the staff at Hotel De Rome. They went above and beyond to help her, checked up on her throughout the day, and even gave me helpful advice upon my return: drink lots of beer to pass the stone! Overall, it was a great stay, and I hope to return to Hotel De Rome under less painful circumstances.

Not one thing you could place your finger on but the overall experience is poor. Breakfast is expensive for what is offered. No toast machine, poor fruit selection, self service coffee machine. Cooked options were offered but the product was poor. Over cooked omelettes, hard poached eggs only to be...

Not one thing you could place your finger on but the overall experience is poor. Breakfast is expensive for what is offered. No toast machine, poor fruit selection, self service coffee machine. Cooked options were offered but the product was poor. Over cooked omelettes, hard poached eggs only to be replaced but raw undercooked ones…… really a 5 star hotel, charging a premium should be able to get this right. The breakfast area furniture looked and is worn in parts too, again for the prices charged it’s not good enough. Staff are mostly miserable and don’t smile. Especially in the roof top bar, slow service and particularly curt. Rooms are clean and well serviced, the area is pleasant too.

Impeccable! Ownership clearly adheres to the “pay attention to detail” philosophy. From the flowers in the lobby, to the rooms / bathrooms, the thoughtfulness that went into every aspect of the property is evident. The staff was attentive in an easy going, yet professional manner. It is surrounded by gorgeous...

Impeccable! Ownership clearly adheres to the “pay attention to detail” philosophy. From the flowers in the lobby, to the rooms / bathrooms, the thoughtfulness that went into every aspect of the property is evident. The staff was attentive in an easy going, yet professional manner. It is surrounded by gorgeous older buildings, and is a quick walk to the Brandenburg Gate. I’ve already started researching other Rocco Forte properties for my next visit to Europe!

LOVE this place and LOVE the staff as well. From the doorman, concierge (Stella); to restaurant staff, front desk staff, roof top staff all was PERFECTION. If I could wrap up,this hotel and take it with me wherever I travel I would do so! Spotless, and wonderful to have a...

LOVE this place and LOVE the staff as well. From the doorman, concierge (Stella); to restaurant staff, front desk staff, roof top staff all was PERFECTION. If I could wrap up,this hotel and take it with me wherever I travel I would do so! Spotless, and wonderful to have a spa to come back and relax in…roof top was also a nice addition Thanks everyone

Outstanding customer service by every staff member that we encountered, from reception, cleaning staff, restaurant staff, and concierge. Roof top bar well worth a visit. Rooms nicely appointed and comfortable. Very pleasant experience all round.

Beautiful rooms, spacious with high ceiling, equipped of both shower and bathtub (in marble!). Restaurant and Room Service offer a very good selection of delicious italian dishes (with some must have german dishes too). The Spa and the Fitness room are amazing, perfect to have a relaxind day.

Beautiful rooms, spacious with high ceiling, equipped of both shower and bathtub (in marble!). Restaurant and Room Service offer a very good selection of delicious italian dishes (with some must have german dishes too). The Spa and the Fitness room are amazing, perfect to have a relaxind day. Housekeeping does a really great job, spotless rooms and personalised amenities. The staff in general is very kind, proactive and caring.

Was told that I was staying in 6 star rated hotel. Lobby was very average , food at restaurant or in bar did not rate as 6 star. Rooms good , spa area good albeit very expensive. The worst aspect is that when I wanted to organise driver from hotel to take me to concert and pick me up was advised min booking of 10 hours. This is very unprofessional and unacceptable that alleged 6 star hotel can only do this most 5 stars hotels around world would charge on hourly basis or min 2-3 hours NOT 10. Would I stay again or recommend absolutely NOT !!! Ps. The only redeeming feature was I was able to take selfy with rod stewart in lobby

This is an exclusive roof top bar. They were full Friday and advised we returned Saturday. Saturday they were shut for a private event. Complete waste of our time travelling back again. If the staff in reception had a little customer service training this could have been avoided. They were...

This is an exclusive roof top bar. They were full Friday and advised we returned Saturday. Saturday they were shut for a private event. Complete waste of our time travelling back again. If the staff in reception had a little customer service training this could have been avoided. They were not very welcoming on either visit. In the future book in advance via open table.

In March 2025 we had a stay of five nights at the Hotel De Rome. It was great, even so the personal, from porter, concierge, front desk, dining room etc. etc. Overall, the service was excellent, and we felt confident that assistance was readily available whenever required. The hotel, originally an old bank, is situated in a prime location close to notable historical sites. Its placement among historic buildings is both unique and appealing, offering a quiet environment while being centrally located. Our room was exceptionally clean and tastefully decorated. The restaurant and staff were excellent. We enjoyed a delightful dinner and breakfast with a wide variety of options suitable for everyone. The spa in the old Fault of the bank is phenomenal. We loved it. Thank you for this pleasant stay.
