Is your RA status earned or referred?
Earned.

What room type did you book?
Club Superior.

What room did you receive?
Club Deluxe.
I was told I must book a Club Deluxe, not Club Superior in order to have a suite.
The Club Deluxe category did not show on the IHG booking site so I didn't know it existed. Next time I'll just book the cheapest room available.

How was your room?
Well equipped and comfortable.

How was the Lounge?
Loved it. Breakfast until 1pm at weekends, hot soup all afternoon and evening. Chef introduced himself and offered to prepare special hot snacks.

What was good?
Club Lounge. Service. Very smart room. Concierge.

What was bad?
No fruit or welcome gift until day three. No welcome letter. No weekend newspaper. Questionable upgrade.

Value for money?
Not bad.

Will you return?
Yes. I enjoyed my first visit to Berlin.

Any tips?
The Block House (Steak) Restaurant chain is worth a visit.
