Overview

The four-star Novotel Berlin Mitte is part of the Novotel chain. It is ideally located for educational trips with children — on the Museum Island in Berlin's Mitte district.

The rooms, which are regularly renovated, are only available in two categories, standard and superior, but have everything you need for a family stay. Plenty of daylight and a wonderful view from the floor-to-ceiling windows, a bathroom with a separate bathtub and shower on a flexible hose, a sofa bed as a sleeping area, connecting rooms, the possibility of taking a cot and a pram — these are the little details that make the hotel a pleasant place to stay.

The soundproofing of the windows prevents street noise from disturbing a child's sleep. The supermarket is just around the corner and a tea and coffee service is available for in-room dining. A family room is available for two adults with two children under 16.

For early risers, Novotel Berlin Mitte offers a complimentary morning coffee with yoghurt and snacks. For everyone else, breakfast is served at Le Jardin and children eating with their parents are free. In the evening, the chef offers a children's menu for the younger guests.

The hotel also has bicycles for hire, including some with child seats. That's handy, because if you're staying on Museum Island, you wouldn't want to start anywhere else in Berlin. And it's much easier to see the whole island on a bike than on foot or by public transport.

The other attractions — Berlin Cathedral, the Television Tower, the Oceanarium, Alexanderplatz and Potsdamplatz — are all within easy walking distance. And in the evening, while parents relax in the lounge bar after a busy day, children can play their favourite games in the video arcade and playground.

Food and Drink

The hotel restaurant Le Jardin offers a la carte and buffet service to guests of the Novotel Berlin. The buffet breakfast is served from 6:30am and ranges from light snacks such as fruit, yoghurt, cereals, eggs and cold cuts to more substantial hot dishes and sausages. Complimentary coffee with pastries, yoghurts and light snacks are available for Larks before 6.30am.

Hotel breakfasts are charged separately. However, If you're travelling with two children under 16, it's a special offer: the children eat for free in the morning.

Guests of the Novotel Berlin Mitte appreciate the quality of the local cuisine. In addition to the indoor lounge, there is also an outdoor terrace. But if you want to dine in your room on a budget, check out the culinary section of the supermarket, which is literally around the corner.

And if you take a walk around town, you'll come across more than one place serving authentic German cuisine. Just cross the bridge to St Nicholas Cathedral and you'll find great restaurants along the promenade with delicious dishes on the menu. There's even more choice around Alexanderplatz, a 15-minute walk from Museum Island.
