This hotel is right in the middle of the longest surviving section of the former East Berlin Wall. To build it, they literally had to remove a small section of the East Side Gallery. It’s a 6-min walk to Ostbahnhof, which connects you to Alex Platz, Hauptbahnhof, and all of the touristy stuff in less than 30 min. The hotel has a nice view of the river and Kreuzberg on one side, and a view of the wall and all the tourists walking by it on the other. My wife and I stayed there for a week, which includes one free room cleaning. The room was clean, tidy and well designed. Nice little kitchenette. Staff was friendly and helpful. They speak both English and German with ease. On weekend nights, people hang out on the little terrace and socialize. Overall, very nice.
