We got it when Berlitz wanted to team up with a hotel to teach us French in Montreal. But going to Germany to learn French? There's something missing in the logic there.
Let's give them the benefit of the doubt, assume they've done some market research and discovered there are travelers who want to stay in Berlin but learn French.
If you belong to that particular market segment then you need to know that the deal is at the Hotel Concorde, a five-star hotel which does, at least, belong to a Paris-based group of hotels, giving the whole French speaking thing just a scrap of credibility.
Sign up for their Luxury French Lesson package deal and you'll get two nights in an executive room and buffet breakfast, three ourse dinner at a French restaurant, two-hour French class at Berlitz and a guided tour of Berlin focusing on French history; the whole deal starts from $371 a night per person.
Sounds lovely and all but if you're already in Germany and want to learn French, we actually suggest heading to the neighboring country, you know, France, where that whole language started. Just our naïve suggestion.
