Social types give high marks to this eastside hostel that puts the 'fun' in funky and is a great
launching pad for in-depth nightlife explorations. Clean rooms sport pine beds, lockers and
artsy styling. Bathrooms are shared but there's plenty of them. Guest kitchen, backyard and
on-site pub are all great socialising zones. Optional breakfast is €3.
HOSTEL
APARTMENT HOSTEL SINGER 109
€58/78; Schillingstrasse, Strausberger Platz, Jannowitzbrücke)
Close to sightseeing and nightlife, this attractive hostel in a historic brick building centres
on a huge atrium with a lounge where cultural and language barriers melt quickly. A lift
whisks you to shut-eye zones in cheerfully painted and spacious dorm-style apartments,
each with bathroom and lockers. Optional breakfast is €5.
HOTEL
MICHELBERGER HOTEL
€105-196; ; Warschauer Strasse, Warschauer Strasse)
The ultimate in creative crash pads, Michelsberger perfectly encapsulates Berlin's offbeat
DIY spirit without being self-consciously cool. Rooms don't hide their factory pedigree, but
are comfortable and come in sizes suitable for lovebirds, families or rock bands. Staff are
friendly and clued-in, and there's a popular restaurant and live music in the lobby on some
nights. Optional breakfast is €16.
HOTEL
NHOW
€115-295; ; Warschauer Strasse, Warschauer Strasse)
This riverside behemoth bills itself as a music and lifestyle hotel and underscores the point
by having its own on-site recording studios. The look of the place is certainly dynamic, what
with a sideways tower jutting out over the Spree and Karim Rashid's digi-pop design that
would make Barbie proud.
Worth a little extra: a room with a river view. Optional breakfast is €24.
