Where to Stay in Berlin – Apartments, Hostels & Hotels + Distance to Vegan Spots

As my Vegan Berlin Guide is one of my most popular posts, I frequently get asked for recommendations of where to stay in Berlin. I’ve lived in Berlin since 2011, so it’s not something I often think about. So, I scoured the internet and endless reviews to come up with some good options to combine with my knowledge of Berlin’s best areas. I hope it helps narrow your choice amongst the thousands of options out there! I’ve also included the vegan places within walking distance.

If you want your own private room, be sure to look through both the hostels and the apartments. Some of the hostels are only private rooms or have nice private room options, too.

Stayed somewhere great that’s not on this list? Send me a message and let me know!

Where to Stay in Berlin – Neighborhoods

I get asked this question a lot, and the answer is that there is not ONE correct answer for where to stay in Berlin. Berlin is huge, and it doesn’t have one center. The public transportation is very good. As long as you are not far from a station, you’ll be fine wherever you are. Even those of us living in Berlin tend to divide ourselves by neighborhood. Each area has its benefits, but they tend to have different reputations:

Charlottenberg – Kurfürstendamm is Berlin’s high street where you’ll find the shops like Gucci, Prada, etc. Also stuff like H&M, Urban Outfitters and Forever 21. Tourists flock to this area to shop. Besides that there’s the more livable Kantstraße area, lined with pre-war buildings and classy establishments.

Friedrichshain – The punk area of the city. Tons of cafes and shops line Simon-Dach-Straße. Tourists have also caught onto this street, but there’s still lots of nice bars and restaurants here, including the Saturday market at Boxhagener Platz.

Kreuzberg – There’s a couple areas of Kreuzberg. The Oranienstraße area near Görlitzer Bahnhof and Schlesisches Tor has lots of hip places, restaurants, bars, etc., but the kind of hip that tourists have caught on to. It’s sorta halfway between Neukölln and Prenzlauer Berg. I spent my entire first year in this area before retreating to places where I could actually get a seat in a bar on a Friday night. The Bergmannstraße area is a more yuppie part of Kreuzberg, near the stations Mehringdamm and Gneisenaustraße. Tons of good cafes, a few less babies.

Mitte – There are two parts of Mitte. There’s Alexanderplatz, which is Berlin’s “center”. Potsdamer Platz is another big touristy/business spot in Mitte, where you’ll find the Mall of Berlin. This is filled with tourists and nothing really that interesting (to me). Hackescher Markt area going down to Weinmeisterstraße is the more hip, boutique shopping district. The area near Rosenthaler Platz is where all the start-ups have congregated, so you’ll get a younger, hip, vaguely tech start-up kinda crowd here.

Neukölln – Hipsters. It’s Berlin’s Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Unique, hip bars, scattered third-wave coffee shops, plus a pinch of grime. Most mainstream tourists don’t seem to make it this far, so you can still get a seat in the bars on the weekend.

Prenzlauer Berg – Yuppie area. Think Berlin’s Park Slope or Berkeley. Lot’s of nice cafes, boutiques, organic shops, and babies. Big market with outdoor karaoke at Mauerpark on Sundays.

Schöneberg – The Nollendorfplatz area is the historically gay men section of the city. There are sections of Schöneberg (and Charlottenberg) that are the “old money” parts of Berlin. The Akazienstraße area is super nice with load of cafes and little shops. Hauptstraße is less fancy, but has lots of grocery stores, Turkish market, etc.

Wedding – Wedding has been Berlin’s up-and-coming area for awhile. Here you’ll find cool spots scattered and hidden around corners rather than staring you in the face. For example, there’s a new LGBT bar called Moritz, that makes their own tonic, and one of the first spots craft beer was ever served in Berlin, Vagabund Brewery. Leopoldplatz is a bit of a center with all your daily shopping needs in the area. You’ll also find the prices here a bit lower than Mitte or Prenzlauer Berg.

Where to Stay in Berlin – Apartments

For those wanting their own space and a kitchen during their Berlin visit, here’s where to stay in Berlin for you.

Apartmenthouse Berlin – Am Görlitzer Park – This is a great location right in the middle of the action in Kreuzberg, close to public transportation.

Where to Stay in Berlin – Hostels

The Cat’s Pajamas Hostel – I’ve actually been in this hostel as a friend stayed there. It has a really nice design element, and a huge, nice kitchen and common area, as well as a courtyard to hangout in out back. It’s in Kreuzkölln, which is out of the “center” of Berlin, but is where all of us who actually live in Berlin hangout. If you want to be with all the other tourists and go clubbing every single night, this is probably not the place for you. I used to live around the corner from this hostel when I first moved to Berlin, and it’s great as it’s near the park Hasenheide, tons of cafes, and the queer bar Silverfuture, as well as the awesome outdoor Turkish Market on Tuesdays and Fridays. Option of all-female 4, 6 or 8 bed dorms. Prices start at 22€ per night for a dorm bed or 55€ for a private room.

Good for: You want to avoid doing all the same things as the other tourists.

Vegan spots within walking distance: H&D Chay, Kiez Vegan, playing with eels, Viasko, Yellow Sunshine Burger, Cafe Tschüsch, La Stella Nera.

The Circus Hostel – This is probably the most all-inclusive activities in one place hostel you’ll find. They have their own micro-brewery in the basement of the hostel, a two-floor café called Katz & Maus, as well as a bar and lounge, with late breakfasts, freshly made sandwiches and a big drinks menu – including special drink offers, and their own beer. Each week they offer a free history tour, an art tour, and special staff-led tours to their favorite corners of Berlin. There are also lots of events hosted there, from trivia nights or concerts to history talks, and the chance to ‘drink around Germany’ with their virtual beer tour. Probably more on the party hostel end. They also offer bikes, hairdryers, alarm clocks, phone chargers. etc to borrow, and rental iPads and laptops. Prices start around 22€ for a bed in a dorm or 60€ for a private room. In the hip Mitte start-up area.

Good for: The social butterfly, and those who like to be in the center of the action.

Vegan spots within walking distance: Sußer Wolz Veganes Cafe, Cat Tuong, Lia’s Kitchen, Lucky Leek, Rawtastic, Chaostheorie, SOY, Vego Foodworld, Kopps.

EastSeven Berlin Hostel – From their site, “I’d say our hostel is ideally suited for relaxed, adult travellers who want to meet other travellers and who prefer the chilled atmosphere of a small hostel instead of seeking the large teeny groups in the bigger chain hostels.” They also have little extras like a printer, bike rental, happy hour, umbrellas and hairdryers. It’s a very clean hostel with a large self-catering kitchen and an outdoor BBQ area where you can meet people if you’re traveling alone. They put a big emphasis on cleanliness and not being a party hostel. They offer private rooms starting around 50€ and dorm beds starting around 20€ per night. In the district Prenzlauer Berg, where there are about a bazillion cafes.

Good for: Those who want to meet others, but still need their peace and quiet.

Vegan spots within walking distance: Cat Tuong, Lia’s Kitchen, Lucky Leek, Rawtastic, Chaostheorie, SOY, Vego Foodworld, Kopps.

Grand Hostel Berlin – The library area in this one just makes me very happy. This one also has so many fantastic reviews raving about customer service. The location in Kreuzberg doesn’t hurt either, down the road from one of my favorite yummy Ethiopian restaurants. Set in an elegant 19th-century building, this hostel offers free Wi-Fi, great transport links, and welcome packs with a map of the city. The rooms at the Grand Hostel Berlin feature elegant wooden furnishings and a simple, contemporary décor. The Möckernbrücke Underground Station is only 200 m away, ensuring easy access to attractions throughout the capital. You can also rent a bicycle from the Grand Hostel and explore Berlin at your own pace. The hostel’s Grand Bistro offers a varied all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet. Guests can also enjoy drinks, music and various evening events in the cosy Library Bar.

Good for: Those who are not into bunk beds, this hostel doesn’t have them.

Vegan spots within walking distance: Der Vegetarische Metzger (vegetarian butcher with vegan options), Tutti (vegan options), lots of cafes and such in Bergmann Kiez that have vegan options. Veganz vegan grocery store in Kreuzberg is also not far.

Box61 Art Concept Flat – 6 private rooms and a large common area with fully equipped kitchen as well as two shared bathrooms (ladies&gents). It follows an interior art design concept and each room has its very unique individual arty design. Clean, cozy, good location and the place offers free coffee and tea in the morning. Prices start around 60€ per night for a private room.

Good for: People who want their own space in a clean, nice design hostel with a good location. Chances to talk to other humans though because of the shared common spaces.

Vegan spots within walking distance: Velicious Cafe, Vöner, Happy Baristas (vegan options, coffee with homemade almond milk), Emma Pea, 1990 Vegan Living, Bistro Bardot, Yoyo Vegan Foodworld, Balaram Eis.

Jetpak Eco Lodge – This hostel is in the forest of Grunewald, but still accessible to central Berlin. In the summer would be great because you can walk to the lake Grunewaldsee to go swimming. The hostel’s power comes from 100% renewable sources; it is heated by a modern, wood-burning, CO2-neutral heating system; and the hostel’s hot water is heated by solar panels. 100% green power. Waste is divided, with bottles returned to the manufacturer for re-use, food composted on-site (at a safe distance from the hostel!), and many other items are recycled. Twenty minutes from Zoo Station nestled 1 block into the forest, JETpak offers bright clean rooms and truly spotless bathrooms.

The large common room provides space for free 24 hour high speed internet, nightly big-screen movies, foosball or downtime. Though bus service runs 24 hours, the hostel also rents brand new German bikes for the most convenient access to the city center. Three major museums are within walking distance as well as an extensive trail system through the pristine Grunewald Forest. Probably the best bargain, starting at 17€ per night in the dorm, or a private room starting at 46€.

Good for: Those who want to explore the green spaces of Berlin instead of the clubs, and those who don’t mind a slightly longer trip to the center for a bargain. Reviews say it’s very relaxing and a great escape from the city.

Vegan spots within walking distance: None, but a good jumping point to explore the west of Berlin where you can find vegan and vegan-friendly places.

Minimal Hostel – Guests say it’s more like a flatshare than a big hostel. Small, cozy place in Kreuzkölln. It’s around the corner from the canal, so you can take nice walks along the water. Nearby Katie’s Blue Cat Cafe, which has awesome coffee. It’s also away from the tourist areas, but still near tons of cafes, bars, vintage shops, etc. Plus, on Tuesdays and Thursdays the amazing Turkish market is open literally down the street. They use re-purposed furnishings in harmony with modern German design techniques.

Both a six bed dorm and two double rooms are offered. They also guarantee the beds are comfy, so let me know about that. Non-smoking property. Clean washrooms, and a tranquil and respectful environment. The owners are lifelong Berliners. Dorm beds around 24€ per night, private room around 65€.

Good for: Those who want to be friendly, but independent. Non-partiers who want to explore off the beaten tourist path, but still be well connected.

Vegan spots within walking distance: Brammibal’s Vegan Donuts (!!!), Viasko, Charlie’s Vegan Food and Coffee, Yellow Sunshine Burgers, Cafe V, Soya Vietnamese Vegan Kitchen, Burrito Baby (vegan options).

Ostel – Das DDR Hostel – This one is here for the kitsch factor and the history buffs among you. It’s a DDR-themed hostel, meaning it features authentic East German design. Decorated with retro furniture, an old-style radio and 1970’s wallpaper. As far as I can tell they only have private rooms of varying sizes, so good if you want your space. Overall, a good chance to get a feel for what it might have been like, at least design-wise, to live in the former East Berlin in the 70s. Located in Friedrichshain, near the station Ostbahnhof, which is super close to the East Side Gallery and well-connected to public transit. Prices start at around 33€ per night for a private room.

Good for: Design or history buffs. People who want a private room for a good price.

Vegan spots within walking distance: Veganz vegan grocery store, Goodies, The Bowl, Avesu Vegan Shoes.

Pfefferbett Hostel – The Pfefferbett is located in a 19th-century brewery and features modern interior design and stylish parquet floors. All rooms are quiet and have a private bathroom and view of the garden or inner courtyard. Snacks are available all day. Free Wi-Fi is available in some rooms and in all public areas. Guests at the Pfefferbett can relax on the south-facing terrace, beside the open fireplace or have a game of pool/billiards or table tennis. Has a 24/7 bar in the lobby. Guests can also rent bicycles from the hostel (from March until October). The hostel is right smack in the middle of a hip part of Prenzlauer Berg, a short walk from many clubs, bars and restaurants.

Rainbow Hostel – This hostel is part of Regenbogenfabrik, an independent organization running many different projects. They focus on alternative life paths and offer “Help with Self help”. You can go there for a bike kitchen to learn how to fix your own bike, or use their carpentry workshop for help building something, etc. Everyone working there is part of their collective. Located in Kreuzberg in a friendly, quiet atmosphere at reasonable prices. They rent bikes and also have rooms for seminars, teaching and training, bookable per full – or half-day.

Good for: The alternative and those who care about sustainability, families who don’t wanna stay in a hotel. Queer-friendly place as well, and for a good price. Those only in Berlin for the clubs will probably want to go elsewhere.

Vegan spots within walking distance: Brammibal’s vegan donuts, Yellow Sunshine Burgers, Charlie’s Vegan Food and Coffee, Viasko.

They’re right across from the station Warschauer Straße in Friedrichshain, so a great location. Hip bar on site.
