I recently took the ICE from Amsterdam to Berlin. The journey itself was very pleasant. The ICE was on time and you didn't have to change trains the whole way! The service on the spot as well as online was excellent! Unfortunately, the journey was not really pleasant and comfortable due to the high volume TV in the ICE. However, the ICE was hygienic and clean.

Some time ago I took the train from Amsterdam to Berlin... The ICE was clean. The journey was very comfortable due to the cosy seats and the pleasant volume. Unfortunately, the wifi went down more often and the journey was very drawn out due to bad weather, as we had to deal with long delays...
Pro
IconQuick
Cons
IconExpensive snacks
IconFew snacks
My train journey from Amsterdam to Berlin was a pleasant experience overall. The trains were good, equipped and clean and there was enough space for passengers and luggage. In addition, the seats were comfortable and there were plenty of sockets for charging devices. During the journey, I was able to enjoy the beautiful scenery and see many interesting towns and villages along the way. However, there were limited snack options during the journey and the prices for food and drink on the train were relatively high. It is therefore advisable to take snacks and drinks with you in advance. Overall, it was a pleasant and efficient way to travel and I would definitely recommend the train journey from Amsterdam to Berlin.

Cons

I really like the fact that there was wifi and power sockets on this train. The seats were quite comfortable, as usual, and other things were normal. The toilet was very clean, I was very surprised about that. There was enough space for the suitcases. The price was right. I was very satisfied. 5 stars

Cons

I think it's good that there was wifi and power sockets on this train, because otherwise the journey would have been pretty boring. The seats were quite comfortable as always and other things were quite normal. The toilet could have been cleaner, but was ok. The price was right. I was very satisfied.

Since me and a friend went to Amsterdam for the weekend to take some time off, we bought the return breit's with it. Buying the tickets was quite easy & the price wasn't really overpriced either. The train arrived at the station on time. The journey was quite pleasant and wifi gave up a bit, but the sockets were functional. Volume was very quiet and you could actually take a nap. The hygiene was also much better than the other DB trains. I was pleasantly surprised as everything ran as you would expect. Highly recommended!

A few days ago I took the ICE from Amsterdam to Berlin... The train ride itself was totally comfortable. The journey lasted just over 4 hours and we were not delayed. Wifi was fine, the seats were comfortable... The toilets could be a lot cleaner though.
Pro
IconTrain was clean
IconStaff was very nice
Cons
IconTrain was too late
IconDid not have free wifi
Unfortunately, I didn't have any equipment on this train journey, because there was only one socket at my seat and free wifi wasn't available either. But the seats were very comfortable and the volume was at room volume, which is quite normal. I was also pleased with the friendliness of the staff and the toilets were perfectly clean and the train looked so good. But the train was much too late, about 20 minutes, and I couldn't make my connection. But there's nothing bad to say about the price-performance ratio, it's good to travel with.
Pro
IconVery clean
IconReally nice staff
IconGood comfort
IconVery modern equipment
Cons
IconThe price was quite high
My train journey from Amsterdam to Berlin was positive for me overall. I was impressed by the modernity of the train's interior. The seats were comfortable and the ability to use the wifi during the journey made the journey pleasant. The generous legroom was also great. The staff on board were friendly and helpful. They were ready to answer any questions. The cleanliness of the train was also satisfactory. Both the seats and the communal areas were well maintained. However, in terms of value for money, there is room for improvement. Although the journey was pleasant, I felt the fare was a little high compared to other modes of transport. This could be a factor especially for young travellers on a limited budget. Despite the expensive fare, the positive aspects of my train journey from Amsterdam to Berlin outweigh the negative ones. These features made the train journey a really nice experience. However, with possible adjustments to the ticket prices, this journey would have been even more attractive.
Pro
IconVery clean
IconNice staff
IconGood equipment
IconAcceptable journey duration
Cons
IconTicket too expensive again
My experiences on the return journey from Amsterdam to Berlin on the train were again very varied. The cleanliness of the train was again consistently positive, and the well-maintained compartments created a pleasant environment. The seating comfort was further optimised and the legroom was fantastic. There were also plenty of power sockets, which was very practical. The interior of the train on this return journey impressed once again. Modern extras such as improved wifi were also available again. The journey time was reasonable and the train was not delayed. However, a recurring point of criticism was the price-performance ratio. The ticket prices still seem far too high. The service on board was also friendly again. All in all, the return journey from Amsterdam to Berlin was similar to the outward journey. I would therefore recommend the train journey again.

IconArrived with slight delays
Departure on 17/02/2023 on time at 17:10 in Amsterdam Central (ICE 241, track 10a) - change in Hanover from late arrival 21:24 (track 9) to departure 21:31 (ICE 645, track 9) - arrival Berlin HBH/Ostbahnhof 23:23 I had a seat carriage all to myself and the silence coupled with the soft comfort seats made me doze off for a moment. The toilets were clean and the conductor was super nice. All in all top!
