I will be flying to Berlin in late April. I have done a little research on transportation from Tegel Airport to my hotel in Mitte. Is there a bus for example that goes directly to one of the bahnhofs in Mitte (from which I can take a taxi directly to my hotel. I really don't want to haul my suitcase, purse, etc though many tram transfers in order to use all public transportation. I also don't want to pay $100+ by using a taxi for the whole trip. Any suggestions for me?

As soon as you arrive at the Tegel terminal ask where the Tourist information Office is located; go there and ask the agent how to get to Mitte.
Write the instructions to take with you.

The toursit booth at Tegel airport was very helpful when we were there 4 or 5 years ago. Depending on your destination you can get a bus at the airport to take you into the city.

Thank you all. I did google Tegel to Mitte. Looks as though there are buses that go to various bahnhofs. I think my first stop though will be the TI booth at Tegel.
