DK Travel : Berlin

Berlin is Germany’s liveliest city and one of the most fascinating capitals in the world. You’ll find no other place where art and culture, museums and theatres, entertainment and nightlife are more diverse and exciting than on the banks of the Spree River. Once reunited, Berlin quickly developed into a cosmopolitan city, and today there is an air of energy and vibrancy about it.

Ararat

One of the best-stocked and trendiest stationery shops in Berlin, Ararat has many designer items for sale.
Art Nouveau Hotel

An old-fashioned but well-run guesthouse, based in a beautiful Art-Nouveau building. The rooms are furnished in a discreet modern style, and the hotel is typical of Berlin’s older buildings.
artemisia

Art and women rule at this small guesthouse – the hotel is run by and for women and all the rooms are beautifully colour-coordinated. Regular exhibitions by women artists from Berlin are held.
Artist Riverside Hotel Berlin-Mitte

A small hotel promising big things, and in terms of its furnishings at least it keeps these promises. The stylish 19th-century house, with sophisticated interior and excellent service, is popular with American visitors.
art’otel berlin-mitte

Berlin’s best designer hotel emphasizes every detail, and everything here has been styled, from the furniture to the soap in your bathroom. The walls of the historic building are decorated with paintings by Georg Baselitz. The hotel is centrally located, close to Nikolaiviertel.
Auguststraße

The area round this road is one of the closest to the original old Scheunenviertel, featuring old interior courtyards and many buildings that have not yet been restored.
Auguststraße 83

A café and an art gallery are now based in the yard of a former sewing machine factory.
b-flat

Live jazz and occasionally dance are on offer at this small venue.
Backpacker Hostel Berlin

A typically charming Berlin guesthouse, in the most attractive part of Mitte. You can even have your breakfast served in the room.
Bar am Lützowplatz

For a long time, this was the favourite bar of the “beautiful people”. It is now a little quieter than it used to be, but this venue still boasts the longest bar in Berlin. The interior is truly astounding, and the well-dressed barmen with their white dinner jackets, as well as the outstanding cocktails they mix make this a “must” for any visitor.
