Kreuzberg is possibly Berlin’s most famous district, and it definitely qualifies as its most colourful area. Here, in historic tenement blocks that are slowly but surely being renovated, Turkish families live next door to drop-outs and alternatives, artists and students. Social tensions, still characteristic of Kreuzberg today, make this a varied and interesting district – but at the same time a problematic one. The neighbouring district of Schöneberg is markedly quieter; this part of town is not as experimental as Kreuzberg, neither is it as elegant as Charlottenburg – here Berlin is simply enjoyed by its inhabitants. Winterfeldtplatz is surrounded by many inviting pubs, and in the area around Nollendorfplatz entire roads have been taken over and transformed by Berlin’s gay scene, with their shops, bars and night clubs.

  • If you want to have a fantastic breakfast on a Sunday Morning, this is the best place! Nice cosy bar, excellent value for money and very healthy food! for €6.50 you get a lovely and healthy breakfast with fruit, meat, vegetables of all sorts, as well as free coffe + refills!

  • Eastern Comfort Hostel

    Eastern Comfort Hostel has the prices and friendliness of a hostel, but is as nice as a hotel.

    The hostel is located on a boat in the Spree River. It is next to the longest last standing part of the Berlin Wall and you actually have to walk through the wall to get there! There are lots of private rooms with bathrooms and most have a port-window view. Upstairs is a hip bar that is open to the public and is great to grab a snack and cocktails.

  • Salut Café Bar

    Cosy café/bar in the Goltzstrasse in Schoeneberg. Open till late everyday, very friendly people, enjoy a beer, a latte macchiatto, chiabatta, antipasto, bio wine.
