Michelin Guide
"This establishment offers contemporary living just a few steps from the Kurfurstendamm."

Rough Guide
"Swanky boutique hotel near the Savignyplatz restaurants."
Lonely Planet
"The Hecker’s lobby, with ice-blue backlit bar, promises to be an overture to an edgy 21st-century-design hotel, but that tune doesn’t quite carry over into the rooms."
