Waldorf Astoria Berlin

Set within a 32-story high-rise, the 232-room Waldorf Astoria towers over Berlin’s burgeoning City West. Upper-floor suites offer sweeping views of the Kaiser Wilhelm Church through floor-to-ceiling windows. French touches include Pierre Gagnaire’s fine-dining venue and Germany’s only Guerlain spa.
