[Food recommendation] Hackethals, Berlin, Germany

Address: Pflugstr. 11, 10115 Berlin, Germany

Price: below 10 euros for the dish, and the beer was less than 5 euros

Website: http://www.hackethals.de/, do email in a few days in advance to book. the restaurant was full house soon after we sat down. If not, you can try your luck by being there earlier than the opening hours. 

Review of Hackethals: The house beer was one of its kind. It was so nice! I tried many other beers but nothing matched theirs. I love their portobello mushroom pork chop as well,  it was so tender and complimented their beer very well! High recommended! I would visit this restaurant if i goes Berlin again. The son of the owner spoke English, you can ask him to do recommendations (the menu was in German).

[Accomodation Review] Intercityhotel Berlin Hauptbahnhof, Berlin, Germany

Intercityhotel Berlin Hauptbahnhof

Website to book: Agoda  and many other hotel booking websites. Agoda gave the cheapest rate when we book that time.

Cost: Standard Double Advance Purchase including City Travel Card (no breakfast) - around SGD$60+/pax / night

Location:  5 Katharina-Paulus-Str., Tiergarten, Berlin, Germany 10557

Size of accommodation: 20 sq m

Accommodates: 2

Location: 4/5. It is just a building away from the Berlin Main Station, it is best for travelers with luggage and will be taking train to other parts of Germany. The station is a huge shopping mall itself, when the weather is not good, you can just stay in the station to shop the day away. Thee's also a 24-hr pharmacy in the station. Even if the hotel is not in the vicinity of the attractions i.e. museum island, the free city ticket during our stay made up for it.  

Cleanliness: 5/5.

Host(s): Rather unfriendly receptionists

Design: 3/5. Standard hotel room, but it's clean and comfy.

Facilities: wifi (Germany's wifi/data in general is quite bad, so don't expect much)

Security: Just 5 mins walk away from Berlin Hbf, in general is quite ok.
