On Hotel Booking: (Outdated Post).

Posted by Knut on July 15, 2007

 THIS POST IS OUTDATED: PLEASE AWAIT NEW POST ON BOOKING.

Please read this very carefully.

I have sent mails to a number of hotels in Berlin. The hotels I have contacted are those recommended by Berlin Tourismus Marketing GmbH. Most of them haven’t even answered my requests, but  a couple of hotels  have.  I have taken up a dialogue with the people at Hotel am Scheunenviertel.

This is a city hotel, that seem ideal for the Summit Group. It is a small, relatively inexpensive hotel with 6 single rooms and 12 double rooms. So their website says.

The hotel is a GARNI hotel, which in this case means that there is no bar at the hotel and no restaurant.  However, I have been informed, that the first floor of the same building, is a restaurant and a bar. And that the area, by the way, is crowded with bars and restaurants.

Breakfast buffet is included in the prices. 

Group price for rooms a night, are: (Pls. see mail below)

Single room; Euro 70.00

Double room: Euro 87.00

Triple rooms: Euro 110.00

Insert: First mail from hotel

Good morning Knut and thank you very much for the e-mail.

I have offer you the rooms in a group rate.

It’s not possible to use our breakfast room (ed. for lectures). But on the first floor of our house is a Restaurant- Bar(Las Cucaracha). There is enough space for a good discussion.

We are a hotel garni. We offer a really good breakfast buffet. But we don`t have a Bar. This Area is full Bars, Clubs and so on.

We can give you an option till the 10th of December 2007 for all the rooms.

But please write us an e- mail if you like to have them.

With best wishes from Berlin
