Scene
Ecologically conscience hotel with earthy themes
The Scandic Berlin Potsdamer Platz is a nature-themed hotel, with floor-to-ceiling outdoor scenes decorating hallways, and carpeting reminiscent of stone paths. The main restaurant has vibrant green chairs, a wall decorated in faux foliage, and a soundtrack playing the sound of birds chirping and bees humming. In guest rooms eco-conscience practices are evident -- including refillable pump dispensing shower gel and shampoo containers, and trash cans divided into recyclable sections. Meeting rooms have earthy themes named after animals including wolverine, red squirrel, and arctic fox, and trees like pine and birch.
