Recent Grand Hotel Esplanade Review: "Vi bestilte Executive Suite pA¥ dette hotellet og rommet var pA¥ drA¸yt 60 kvadrat med alle fasiliteter. Helt topp rom og det stiligste vi noen gang har vA¦rt pA¥ og vi har vA¦rt pA¥ en del. Spesielt var badelA¸sningen stilig og du fA¥r en luksusfA¸lelse nA¥r du er her. Husk A¥ be om A¥ fA¥ komme til den nyeste delen av hotellet, som vi fikk tips om her pA¥ siden. Ha  du tenkt deg til Berlin og nyte noen dager pA¥ hotellet og dets fasiliteter finnes det knapt et bedre hotell i Berlin vil jeg anta, og til en rimelig penge. Skal du som oss oppleve Berlin og ikke vA¦re sA¥ mye pA¥ hotellet er det ikke nA¸dvendig med et sA¥ fint rom og hotell. Vi dro andre steder A¥ spiste frokost til en brA¸kdel av hotellets pris. Det er dyrt A¥ spise frokost pA¥ hoteller i Berlin uansett, sA¥ dette er ikke spesielt for dette hotellet. Sykle heller til en lokal cafe el. lignende, eller ta bussen/sykle inn til Mitte - det som kalles sentrum i Berlin i dag, som ligger i tidligere A˜st-Berlin. Vi leste andres anmeldelser pA¥ dette hotellet fA¸r vi dro nedover og var spent pA¥ beliggenheten, men den ligger perfekt til i forhold til at du er midt i mellom alle Berlins bydeler. Berlin er en meget stor by sA¥ uansett hvor du bor mA¥ du komme deg rundt med et transportmiddel, det meste ligger ikke i gA¥avstand. Da er det ikke noe problem A¥ ta 100-bussen som gA¥r 100 meter fra hotellet og frakter deg rundt i Berlin. Denne gA¥r forA¸vrig hele tiden. Eller gjA¸r som oss, lei sykler og se Berlin langs sykkelveien. Finnes mange utleiesteder for dette og som er billigere enn hotellets sykler. Sykkel kan anbefales pA¥ det sterkeste i vA¥r- og sommersesongen nA¥r det er fint vA¦r."
