Honigmond Hotel

EuroCheapo Review email this page print this page

Located above the celebrated Honigmond restaurant, the Hotel and Pension Honigmond is "country home goes hip." It's lovingly appointed throughout, with first-class touches and warmth, but lacking any trace of stuffiness. How refreshing.

The spacious lobby and reception area make an elegant picture: Leather sofas and oversized chairs, a faux-fireplace, exposed brick, artfully distressed crown molding, gorgeous wood floors, enormous gilt-framed mirrors, fresh flowers, and 18th-century "Old Masters" reproductions.

The Honigmond's pension rooms are the oldest in the building, offering shared facilities, simple furnishings, and a cheaper price tag than the hotel rooms. We liked these rooms—they had beautiful old parquet floors and attractive wood beds. In contrast, hotel rooms at the Honigmond are jaw-dropping. The leather sofas and gilt-framed mirrors from downstairs are back, and back with a mission. In one single room, Mona Lisa peers down onto the lovely deco bed, a gold-framed Monet, and a flat-paneled TV.

The Honigmond is located along Tieckstrasse, a 5-10 minute walk south to Oranienburgerstrasse in Mitte. The same owners also run the charming Honigmond Garden Hotel on nearby Invalidenstrasse.
