East Side Hotel

The East Side Hotel is a first class hotel in a convenient location on the borders of the Kreuzberg and Friedrichshain districts of Berlin. Guests are able to take advantage of the charms of both these districts, or jump onto the city's public transport to explore further afield. If you're wondering about the name, it's taken from the famous 'East Side Gallery' (one of the few remaining sections of the Berlin Wall, where the Oberbaum Bridge spans the Spree River), which the hotel overlooks. The rooms come complete with telecommunications (TV and phone) and the nightly rate includes an impressive a la carte breakfast (for those who side with the old adage that it's the most important meal of the day!).

East Side proved to be a comfortable hotel with a great location for exploring some of Berlin's best sites. Prices seemed reasonable compared to other hotels we investigated
