If Mitte is the heart of Berlin, then Prenzlauer Berg is the soul. Both regions fenced in by post-war East Germany, today they are unrecognisable. Prenzlauer Berg is now the poster-boy of gentrification peppered with cool cafes and hipster jazz bars. Of course the techno scene rages on throughout the city with late-night / early-morning establishments for those who know where to look.

Subway station Eberswalder Straße is less than a minute away from the hotel making navigating Berlin’s finest attractions simple.

Reliable French-inspired fair is the cuisine de jour at our favourite local restaurants. Gugelhof’s tempting Alsatian menu offers breakfast until 4pm on weekends and at La Muse Gueule the cheese and charcuterie boards are outdone only by the wine list.
