The Adlon Hotel, Berlin
Every time I think of the Adlon Hotel, I think of a world class hotel with a lot of history and old world elegance. I once watched a travel show at home in the US where they featured this hotel. It was said that President Obama stayed here while on a visit to Germany. There are many upscale hotels in Berlin, but the Adlon for me is the grandest of them all. Its location is right opposite the Brandenburg Gate and a hop and a skip away from the US Embassy.
I first saw the Adlon Hotel last 2012, during my first ever visit to Berlin. I had already heard a lot about it then. If this was the hotel US Presidents stayed at whenever they visited the German capital, I realized it must be very upscale and expensive. It exuded old world charm for sure.

There was a new floral arrangement every day we were in the Adlon. Fresh flowers no less for its guests and patrons.
The brand name of the beautiful and pricey perfume we saw at one of the gift shops inside the Adlon.
We enjoyed walking through the small passage lined with gift shops. This was one shop selling bottles of perfume at astronomical prices! Krigler Perfume! The merchandise sure looked lovely.
Marc enjoyed looking at this bear inside what looked like a gift shop and office inside the hotel.
