Amano grand central is located quite centrally, although in an area without much to do. You can easily walk to the museum island/tierpark, but most other destinations requires taxi or u-bahn.
Good things:
- The hotel is clean and well maintained.
- Rooms are decent size and OK furnished including minibar, safe and amenities (but no laundry bag).
- Breakfast restaurant has good capacity and works quite efficiently (see comments below on not so good things, though).
- Parking is easy in the basement (but must be paid for separately)
Not so good things
- Room TV does not feature chromecast
- Check in can be slow (we experienced waiting to check in and even though an extra staff was at the counter he left while the queue was long, leaving only 1 staff to manage the reception)
- Bar staff speaks poor English (and German).
- Breakfast is decent, but could benefit from some supplements to the scrambled eggs, like bacon or sausages.
- Building is triangular with many rooms towards the courtyard. Those rooms i the corner features views to the room almost straight opposite your own room.
- Shower is for people shorter than 170 cm - which leaves taller people in very awkward positions when showering :)
