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.

Citystay hostel

Lovely hostel, in central Berlin looking onto the tv tower in Alexanderplatz, and close to the train station. Nice new dorm rooms, with lift to all floors. There are also double bedrooms. Quite cheap, and bar downstairs with large courtyard with hammacks and chairs to sit out in the sun with.
Currywurst and the Kebab!

You can't visit Berlin and not try the local cuisine! Currywurst is a true German experience - a delicious German bratwurst covered in curry powder and served with chips. And while you're at it why not try a traditional Turkish kebab. They actually originated from Berlin when the Turkish emmigrated to the city. There are plenty of kebab and currywurst outlets - Oranienberg Strasse is a hot spot!
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.

Glienicke Bridge

The Glienicke Bridge connects Berlin and Potsdam, spanning the Havel River near Klein Glienicke.

It is best known as the site of three prisoner exchanges between the Soviet Union and the United States during the Cold War. The first such incident happened on February 10, 1962, when the U.S. exchanged Russian spy Colonel Rudolf Ivonovich Abel for Francis Gary Powers, who had been piloting a U-2 spy plane that was shot down over the USSR in 1960.

Louisa's Place

This 5-star hotel is located on the famous Kurfürstendamm boulevard, just one underground stop from the popular shopping area and with easy access to all parts of the capital. Opposite the hotel is a fantastic cafe restaurant offering coffee and amazing cakes to fuel the day's sightseeing.

Our room was beautifully furnished, had a small but very useful kitchen area. The hotel itself is a wonderfully restored Berlin mansion. The hotel is equipped with modern amenities and our room came with free wired internet access.

Louisa's Place’s location enables quick and easy travel within Berlin. Numerous attractions, such as the Gedächtniskirche (memorial church) and the zoo, are within walking distance. Just 1-minute’s walk away from the hotel is the Adenauerplatz U-Bahn (underground) station giving easy access to the rest of this beautiful and under rated city.
Neuschwanstein Castle

The most famous of Germany’s castles, and one of the three commissioned by King Ludwig II, overlooks the gorgeous Hohenschwangau valley. If the architecture looks familiar, you’re right; Walt Disney used the castle as inspiration when designing the Sleeping Beauty Castle for Disney Land. Hundreds of artisans from around the globe took sixteen years to build but a third of the planned castle. It was never finished. However, its sweeping turrets and alabaster walls show that there’s little reason why Neuschwanstein is a prime tourist attraction in Germany.
