About this property

Accommodation category

Hotel

Contemporary design and a panoramic rooftop on Oranienburger Straße, in the lively heart of Mitte.

On Oranienburger Straße, in the middle of Mitte, this 4-star hotel leans fully into contemporary design. The neighborhood is lively, with trendy bars, art galleries and the old facades of the Scheunenviertel, a short walk from the Spree. The vibe suits an urban getaway better than a quiet family stopover.

The location

The address is a real asset: the Oranienburger Straße S-Bahn station is a few minutes' walk away, and the area is packed with restaurants, cafés and nightlife. Plan on about 20 minutes on foot to reach Museum Island or the historic center.

The flip side: the area is busy and can get loud in the evening, especially on the street side. Keep that in mind if you're sensitive to city noise.

Rooms and comfort

The style is resolutely modern, with designer furniture and a hushed atmosphere built on dark tones and touches of velvet, in keeping with the hotel's name. The rooms are functional, designed for an urban and often business-minded clientele.

Services and extras

The hotel generally has a bar and a breakfast area that guests appreciate for starting the day before exploring Berlin. The staff is used to international guests, a real plus if you don't speak German.

A bit pricey but great location

Really a great place to stay for visiting the city. Lots of public transport options pass right by, and the location is central. Even on foot, you can see quite a bit in the surrounding area.

As for the price, I think you can find cheaper options in Berlin pretty easily. That said, the quality is there, so if you have the budget, go for it.
