Berlin's Hotel Adlon: luxury at a far from eye-watering price

Travellers looking for a historic location and wanting to enjoy some luxury should make a reservation at the Adlon in Berlin. Opened in 1907, this "grande dame has been a favourite of many: from Albert Einstein to a baby-dangling Michael Jackson", says Lara Brunt in The Independent. Situated right next to Berlin's Brandenburg Gate, the hotel survived World War II only to be accidentally burnt down by Soviet soldiers who were looting the wine cellar. Rebuilt in 1997, the hotel now offers luxury at a far fromeye-watering price.
