Easy to reach hotel a stones throw from Savignyplatz. The rooms are quiet, and good for a short stay. The building is very old, and there are other businesses and residential flats in the same building. Check in is very simple if you speak German.
It is very close to the Savignyplatz S-Bahn station. The area boasts of dozens of restaurants with various cuisines.

5 minutes from Savignyplatz metro or bus stop.
Good dining options and cafes. Escada super market across the road.
Room in photo and room given were totally different, feels cheated. Would not have booked if the original photo was shared. Booked seeing big bed in photo, but they gave me a small room and single bed. Toilet it says private in room selection while booking. My option given was to use a shared WC.
Do not stay at this hotel. Although it has a central location and is next to the Ku'damm with excellent transport links, we arrived to the following after paying over 200 Euros for the first 2 nights of our stay:
-No air conditioning in the room
- The room was not ensuite as you had to use a public loo with others
- No hot running water, unless you wanted to get the key from reception which again would be used by others
- Pillows and bed - poor
- Decor was awful and seriously needs refurbished, as they certainly charge enough
- The reception (although says it is multilingual) didn't clearly understand English, but if you knew Russian, keine problem. :)
- The noise within the hotel started about 6:30 a.m. with the cleaning...:)
I've travelled extensively over the world, but this is one of the worst places I've ever stayed and rarely write reviews.

Older building with no elevator. Entrance not nice at all and smells bad. Manual keys - multiple - no electronic key card. Small TV. Was the worst of all the many hotels I stayed in this trip, and the most expensive.
located near the train station lots of local coffee shops/bakeries and restaurants a very cosmopolitan area everything you could want just outside the doors
not sure when pictures were taken but red carpet is now light orange. smells gross at entrance. steep stairs. service was only good enough. not rude but definitely didn't want to be there.
shower was like a foot and a half off the floor. water pressure and temperature were great though. maybe add a curtain or sliding wall so if people are traveling with family they don't have to see dad's weiner.
room itself was big for what i paid but still not worth it since it smelled like stale body odor. ceiling is breaking down because of poor ventilation for shower.
bed is just springs and fabric. slept with open window to get the room cooler and get a better smell in. luckily there area is quiet. mostly. bring earplugs just in case if you're a light sleeper.
A positive experience overall. The inefficiency of the elevator could be a problem if you have big luggage.

Unfortunately, english isnt spoken there at all really. I was able to get by with my broken german. Person at front counter was slightly standofish and grumpy in the morning, but by mid day, she was very nice. Place was alright, but very noisy outside. Considering the price, Not bad.
We booked the 3 beds room for 5 nights.
The shower is in the room with the beds. There is no proper bathroom.
There was no hot water during the entire stay.
The toilets are shared.
A live music bar is under the room... We did not sleep until 4am on saturday. This was known to the receptionist but did not offer any reparation...
Overall, would never book here again.
They double-booked my room and made it so I had to book another hotel for a night before I could check in. Then they gave me no refund. They do not speak English well at all, and so do not expect to be able to communicate unless you speak German.
When we arrived at the hotel, the staff required us to pay an additional fee which was not indicated in the booking. It was not reasonable so we did not want to pay. The staff insisted that we needed to pay, and she did not allow us to cancel the booking. We insisted not to pay. It took one and a half hours until she allowed us to check in. (She does not speak/understand English at all.)
We thought it was cheating to charge an extra fee when check in.
Moreover, the whole building is dirty. The carpet at the corridor is smelling. The environment is noisy. There are several bars next doors, so drinking, laughing and music sounds are very loud until 2-3 am.

Not same as photos but comfy enough
I don't know if Pension Cortina has rooms like it shows in its pictures, but what I stayed in was a bit different. Of course, I chose the hotel for the price and the fact it was right next to an S-Bahn station, but I am curious where those rather nice looking rooms were.
The room I was given was basic but it was comfy. The windows opened wide and the shower was very good.
As I said, Pension Cortina was right on a train line direct to Berlin hbf station, and the immediate area is very nice too.
What really let Pension Cortina down for me was the appalling WiFi. When it connected it was slow and it rarely stayed connected for more than a minute. I really struggled to get much of any signal there, tbh.
If you just want a place to sleep then Pension Cortina is fine for its cost. If you need internet then I'm afraid to say it might not do for you.
When I arrived after a 5h trip, the lady at the reception told me, there is no hot water but she would give me a free breakfast. I was too exhausted to look for a different hotel at night, so I decided to stay. I come into the room, it is tiny like a jail cell, cold, with a sink and small shower. NO Toilet in the room. I told the lady I am deeply unhappy about that and she said I booked a single room without a toilet! I denied that. She didn't even try to do anything about that or give me a different room.
4 am, people start clanging around, slamming doors. It was worse than a hostel. Never again.
I checked in late at night around 10:15 pm and on my check out day the lady at the reception desk rejected my request for an extra 1/2 hour to an hour to do the checkout at 12 instead of 11. The cleaning guy was argumentative and ready to start raising his voice on me and it happened once directly and once the next morning on my arrival when I asked for soap and shampoo in my room which was only very small pack of each. Imagine they even argue with customer and themselves when people ask for shampoo and soap and another lady at the front desk gave me a shocking answer that you have to go buy it yourself!!
There’s a bar right downstairs and beneath the hotel that hardly allowed me to sleep until almost 5 am in the morning due to its very loud music that was shaking that whole so-called hotel.
Unlike what I was promised by Hotels.com my room didn’t have a private washroom and I had to go to the end of the corridor to use washroom each time and the shower in my room was very uncomfortable due to its height and step to get in and out inside the room and I haven’t showered in 3 days due to that hazardous height and narrow shower size!!
I do not recommend this so-called Hotel Pension to anyone in overall.
Despite all their deficiencies, they at least can be hospitable and polite to people but that even seems to be difficult for them.
Since when you show attitudes to customers that have paid to be your guest for a few days!!? Where was the customer service and respect!!?

Die Lage des Hotels ist sehr zentral, in unmittelbarer Nähe sind die S-Bahn, ein Supermarkt und viele unterschiedliche Lokale auch zum Kurfürstendamm ist es nicht weit. Ich hatte auch das Glück, ein ruhiges Zimmer in den Innenhof zu bekommen, Zimmergröße und Ausstattung waren ausreichend, ein größerer Spiegel bis auf den über dem Waschbecken, wäre nützlich gewesen, aber für diesen Preis kann man keinen Luxus erwarten.
Frühstück habe ich nicht konsumiert und bis auf die Rezeptionistin am Anreisetag kein Personal gesehen. Für Menschen mit körperlichen Beeinträchtigungen nicht zu empfehlen, da die Stufen, die zum Eingang führen, über keinen Handlauf verfügen und auch in den ersten Stock eine Treppe zu bewältigen ist.
