Guest Reviews
- Janne Holmstrøm (8/5): Billigt, rent og topbeliggenhed - Fællesarealerne bære præg at de er indrettet til skoleklasser, men værelserne er moderne og rene. Beliggenheden fås ikke meget bedre, især når man kommer i bil, med fin parkering bag bygningen. 2 min. gang til Potsdammerplatz og 5 min til Brandenburger Tor.
- Rainer (10/5): - Die Lage und die Zuvorkommenheit des Personal. Sehr gutes Frühstück
- Rainer (10/5): - zentral gelegen und ein sehr gutes Frühstück
- Verified traveler (4/5): Disappointed - Was at this hostel as an solo traveller. I was disappointed with the enviroment which was very quiet and isolated. This is not the place if you want to meet and talk to people. The room climate was very warm I coulden't sleep well at night. The only good thing though was their breakfast.
- Verified traveler (10/5): AUBERGE DE JEUNESSE Berlin Centre - Accueil sympathique accès facile au self Proche du centre ville Très bon rapport qualité/prix Parking disponible gratuit Idéal pour famille Ne parle pas français Bruyant
- Verified traveler (8/5): Bad check-in, the rest a fine experience. - I had booked a private room for 4 people, for 3 nights. When we arrived I was told that I had cancelled my booking, and therefore they didn't have a room for us. But I had not cancelled anything! I had even received an email a few hours earlier from Hotels.com about the upcoming stay. They checked again after a few times saying it was my mistake, and the receptionist figured out it was a colleague who had cancelled it. But they managed to moved around some of the other guests to free up a room for us for the night. We were told we had to move to another room for the next night. But we ended up staying in the same room all of our stay. Food was fine, lots of young people on school trip stays in this hostel. The building and interior is very old.
- Elisabeth (8/5): Super Service und tolles Frühstück - Für eine Stadtreise ist es ideal gewesen. Die Herberge ist in einer guten Lage und das Frühstück ist lecker. Allerdings sind die Wände etwas hellhörig aber es ist sauber und der Service ist ausgezeichnet. Jederzeit wieder einen Besuch wert.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Tolle Unterkunft,freundliches,nettes Personal einfach nur zu empfehlen.Ihr seit Klasse!!!!
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Great location, great room & breakfast available. Slightly concerned that 20 minutes after arriving to our room someone else unlocked our door and said they’d been assigned this room. After asking the staff what happened they said “it doesn’t usually happen” but never apologised
- Regina (10/5): Bom albergue. - É um albergue bem grande, com grande capacidade, no quarto que eu fiquei era limpo, novo e organizado, mas bem pequeno. Café da manhã é bom. A localização é boa.
- Elvira (10/5): - Struttura pulita, stanza spaziosa e colazione eccellente
- BackerJap (10/5): - ポツダム広場から歩いて20分くらいのところにあります。 バックパッカーの旅の宿泊所として利用しましたが、とても満足でした。部屋には鍵付きのロッカーが一人一人あります。私は5人部屋でした。 部屋にコンセントは2つしかないので延長コードは必須かも。 とてもお手頃価格ですが、朝食はビュッフェ形式でとてもよかったです。
- Dmitrii (8/5): - Неожиданно большой хостел. В целом хорошо. Затрак сытный, номер просторный. Порадовали удобства в номере. Ничего лишнего.
- Sanne (8/5): Great staff - first two nights spent in room for 6 - 2. floor towards playground. Very noisy at night until app. 11pm - after that ok. Third night in a very nice comfortable new room in new building on 4th floor - still noise from yard, but very high standard room with own bath and toilet and only 3 beds. Service at front desk very good and friendly.
- Yeizon (6/5): Mejor limpieza - No habían toallas, piso sucio y colchón también
- Kagan (10/5): Good - It was quite good, comfortable and clean. I just loved the breakfast.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Die Kissen sind uralt könnten erneuert werden. Sonst die Mitarbeiter sehr nett und freundlich. Tolles Frühstück für den Preis hatte ich nicht gedacht. Und nicht weit vom Zentrum. Kann man gut mit dem Bus hinfahren. Würde ich jedem empfehlen für den Preis gibts in Berlin keinen Unterkunft.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Overall a nice stay - This is a good hostel in Berlin. Everything worked out as expected. The only concern is the numerous groups of youth staying in the hostel that are unbelievably loud until quite late and start again early in the morning. That means you can actually sleep slightly less than 8 hours because the rooms are not soundproof. The hostel also lack a power socket close to the bed. Otherwise there was no issues. The breakfast exceeded my expectation with a nice variety of standard breakfast items.
- Tahsin (10/5): - Best hostel with this price !! Great staying one night in here Clean, Comfortable great breakfast overall really good!
- Verified traveler (6/5): - 学生が多くて騒々しい。ユースホステルなのでしょうがないかなあと思います。シャワー、トイレは共同ですが清潔です。シャワーはタオルやせっけんなどはないので、持ち込み要です。これで2000円で泊まれて場所的には良い位置にあるので、お得感はあります。
- Eckhard (10/5): Never-before-in-a-youth-hostel - Really nice and helpful staff, clean and friendly rooms, good food, great price
- Verified traveler (8/5): - 観光スポットにも近く、宿泊費も安いのでオススメです。（ブランデンブルク門まで徒歩30分程）
- Verified traveler (10/5): - 清潔で、朝食も満足できます。
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Me gustó que era muy luminoso. El desayuno buffet estaba muy completo
- José (8/5): - El personal es EXCELENTE! Todos son muy amables. El desayuno delicioso. Las habitaciones confortables. El único punto negativo es que el edificio tiene mucho eco y puede llegar a ser ruidoso.
- Verified traveler (6/5): マメっこ - プライベートルームにしたためか（ツインタイプで）ユースホステルなのに、ホテルよりも高かった。 トイレが共同なのはがっかりした。
- Sergey (8/5): Семейный клубный хостел - Останавливаюсь в данном хостеле второй раз. Тихий клубный семейный хостел расположен недалеко от зоопарка с одной стороны и Потсдамской площади с другой. Хороший недорогой завтрак включен в стоимость проживания. Здесь много зон различного времяпровождения. Можно позаниматься спортом или посидеть в баре за чашкой чая или кофе. Все продуманно и тщательно соблюдается.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Perfect - Nice place to live for couple of nights. Public transport available easily.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice hostel - Perfect place for couple of nights.. accessible to city by public transport... Most of the tourist attractions nearby.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Great place - Great place to stay individually or friends... Nice hostel, with good breakfast served too... Late night host was bit rude, but can ignore...
- Tim (10/5): - Nive breakfast and helpful staff. The location is acceptable, just 30 mins walk from central station and downtown.
- JC (10/5): - Spacious secure dormitory / recently refurbished / en-suite shower room & WC / excellent buffet breakfast included !!!
- Veronika (10/5): Великолепно - Очень чистый, современный хостел, с отличным доступом в интернет и потрясающим завтраком - свежие фрукты, цельнозерновой хлеб, моцарелла и бри. В этом году после строительства нового корпуса добавились просторные 4-местные номера с собственным душем и уборной. Отличное расположение рядом с Галерей старых мастеров, Консерваторией и Потсдамерплац. Есть своя парковка.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Alles,topp.Frühstück super,sehr gute Lage ,kann mit einem Spaziergang durch den Tiergarten,oder über den Potsdamerplatz zum Brandenburger-Tor,Reichstag,Hauptbahnhof .... viele Sehenswürdigkeiten erreichen. Kann weiter empfohlen werden.
- Omur (10/5): Good value for price. - We loved the clean room and the BREAKFAST!!! There was an issue with heating but they changed the room immediately. One downside was that there are no towels in the room and you have to bring your own or buy new if you didn't check for that like we didn't :(
- Kate (8/5): Good location, comfy room, friendly staff - Good location, comfy room, friendly staff
- Sangsin (8/5): 단체여행객에 최적 - 저렴한 가격이 아주 좋았습니다. 주변에 바 등의 다른 유흥 시설이 부족했지만 주차시설과 체육시설등으로 단체여행객들에게 최적의 시설인것 같습니다.
- Patricia (8/5): Muitas crianças - Talvez eu tenha dado azar e fiquei justamente nos dias em que estava tendo uma excursão de algum colégio que utilizou o hostel como base. Eram muitas crianças de 16 aproximadamente correndo e gritando nos corredores o tempo todo. Talvez por isso a atmosfera só hostel era diferente dos demais que costumam indicar locais e festas que estão acontecendo na cidade. Quarto e banheiro estavam limpos, dentro do possível.
- Janice (8/5): Good price, good and reception, good breakfast. - Reception is very helpful. Room is clean. I reserved one bed in 4 women room. I am hsppy that end up l got two night all by myself and one night with two women in one room. Breakfast is great. They serve dinner with 7.50 euro too, with lot of vege and fruit. The transport to downtwon is easy. No air con, have to open window at night. But managable. I like the hostel very much with this price.
- Lizbeth (10/5): - Muy recomendable bajo costo y excelente lugar fácil de llegar y cerca del transporte público
- Rune (6/5): Billigt og god beliggenhed - ikke tidssvarende - Man får hvad man betaler for. Det var billigt og ligger godt, men vil nok en anden gang vælge et sted med en lidt højere standard.
- 룰루 (6/5): 교통을 이용하기에 좋은 곳 - 중고등학생이 많이 숙박하는것 같아 시끄럽다. 카운터 직원이 아침식사 시간을 알려주지 않아 첫날에 어림짐작으로 내려가서 먹었다. 침대에서 소리가 많이 난다.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Friendly staff. Room is clean and safe. Easy to get around.
- M (10/5): - Muy buena atención y muy buena ubicación muy próximo al centro y con medios de transporte muy cerca
- Jacqueline (10/5): Fantastic - Super super Vriendelijk behulpzaam fantastisch
- Verified traveler (6/5): - War alles soweit OK bis auf die Matratzen, die müssten dringend erneuert werden !
- J. (8/5): Günstig übernachten in Innenstadtnähe - Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis stimmt auf jeden Fall. Man zahlt nicht viel für die Übernachtung und bekommt einen ganz normalen Jugendherbergsstandard mit Frühstück dafür. Das ist völlig in Ordnung. Außerdem liegt die Herberge sehr zentrumsnah: 10 Minuten Fußweg zum Potsdamer Platz.
- obi (6/5): Full of young kids - The hostel is full of kids under the age of 18. It seems like they have heaps of school trips all the time. This is a terrible environment for young adults who are in Berlin to party. We are surrounded by children (who are very rude!)
- Mariusz (10/5): bardzo przyjemna atmosfera - Bardzo funkcjonalny obiekt, blisko do centrum, parking miła obsługa. Przydałby się mały remont w pomieszczeniach, ale ogólnie bardzo dobre warunki za tak niską ceną. Polecam.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Sehr empfehlenswert für kleines Geld - Ich war nur eine Nacht in dem Hostel, würde es aber jederzeit weiterempfehlen. Die Leute an der Rezeption waren durchwegs sehr freundlich, die Zimmer soweit in Ordnung und die Toiletten sehr sauber. Ich habe mir mit zwei weiteren Damen ein Zimmer geteilt, die leider schon um 6 Uhr früh aufstehen mussten, insofern war die Nacht nicht optimal aber das ist nun mal bei Gemeinschaftszimmern so... Das Frühstück, das im Preis mitinbegriffen war ist absolut empfehlenswert und wäre vermutlich alleine schon fast die 15€ wert! Die Lage von dem Hotel ist wirklich sehr gut, zwar ist keine U-Bahn Station direkt um die Ecke aber doch in der Nähe und der Bus fährt auch gleich die Straße runter. Wenn man etwas Zeit hat kann man sogar zum Bahnhof/Brandenburger Tor durch den Park laufen :-)
- Verified traveler (8/5): - 従業員さん達の対応が良かったです。 施設自体も広めで、空き時間などゆったりと過ごせそうです。 シャワー室、トイレ、客室も割と綺麗です。 全体的に満足しています。
- Dan (6/5): Cost Effective no thrills hotel - We were looking for cheap accommodation when attending a festival in Berlin. This place was good value and comfortable enough for us. It was 10 mins from the nearest transport node which was great and the included breakfast was great value. Our room had a bunk bed, table and its own bathroom.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The room was nice, I stayed in a 4 bed female dorm. I only stayed one night, but it was comfortable. The buffet style breakfast was enjoyable. The only downside is that there is no elevator, and my room was on the 3rd floor.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Fair enough - Acceptably quiet, clean where it counts and a good breakfast at a good price.
- Ümit (8/5): Good for price - Good for price
- Ümit (8/5): Good as a hostel - +++Breakfast was good for a hostel, reception stuff was very friendly, location is very good (close to Potzdamer Platz), there is a big locker per person, beds are ok. I was happy to choose them in general. ---It could be a bit cleaner (it's generally clean, but the cleaning ladies do not enter the room to clean if there is somebody in), some of the cleaning ladies are impolite (but some are very friendly as well), pillows need to be renewed, they try to charge 3.5 euro extra per day because they are a member of IH (if you stay a bit long, to get the membership card for one year is more reasonable (18€)), no enough plugs in the room, you need to bring a splitter or ask one in the reception, there are lots of kids and families (they run in the corridors, it is better if you bring some earplugs).
- annefleur (8/5): Prima verblijf en dichtbij centrum - Ik en een vriendin hebben een erg fijn verblijf gehad in de jeugdherberg. Erg vriendelijk personeel, erg behulpzaam. Ook de kamer was prima opgeruimd en netjes. Ook het ontbijt was er keuze genoeg. Bereikbaarheid naar centrum met de bus prima. Bushalte is 100 m van de jeugdherberg.
- Seyed Sajad (4/5): Ich komme nicht wieder - Diese Jugendherberge ist sehr altmodisch und nicht ganz sauber aber der Lage ist sehr gut.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Boa opção de hostel - Boa opção de hostel, inclusive para famílias. Bem organizado e com ótimo café da manhã.Com wi-fi funcionando bem. A localização não é das melhores, mas não chega a ser um problema, considerando o preço.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Ruhig, gut gelegen - Es ist Kartenmaterial vorhanden. Wertvolle Information erhalten wie wir die Flix-Bushaltestelle am schnellsten finden. Reichhaltiges Frühstücksbüffet.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - A parte l'inconveniente di trovare una delle stanze riservate sporca il primo giorno e non ripulita il secondo, l'ostello è stato all'altezza degli ostelli europei per servizi e accoglienza. In generale lo consiglio per chi ha spirito di adattamento.
- Yu-Huan (8/5): Nice place for budget travelers with car - It was generally a nice and rather cheap stay. With free parking and close enough to the center. I would suggest this place to budget travelers who are going to Berlin by car.
- Marina (8/5): Close to the center clean and safe hostel - The hostel was situated close to the city center with all the sites within walking distance. Inside the room was nice and clean and comfortable. Our room was on the 5th floor, very quiet and facing the courtyard. Since we arrived earlier than the check-in time we were able to store our belongings in the storage room free of charge. If you do stay here, bring towels! Breakfast was very good: a wide selection of breads, some cheese and meat, coffee/tea/hot chocolate, some juice, yogurt, cereal/musli and fruit. Overall the staff are nice and friendly.
- Angela (6/5): Not a friendly front desk. Delicious breakfast. - The front desk people are not welcoming. No greeting, and it seems like they don't like thier job. The lady that works in the kitchen was wonderful. Very helpful and very sweet.
- LEE (10/5): Decent and spacious hostel - Because of my flight, it was around midnight when I checked in, but the process was smooth and the person at reception was thoughtful enought to give me an empty room! There were 2 sinks with mirrors and outlets in a 5-6 person room, and the lockers big enough to fit in my carrier. It's a large, slightly old-fashioned hostel, meaning you have to cover your own sheets, but no biggy. No personal oulet next to the beds but plenty in the room, public showers and toilets were spacious and warm, food was good. A lot of guests were families or students on school trips. Overall, I had a great stay, and definitely will come back if I return to Berlin on a budget:)
- Paola (8/5): Recommended - Great hostel for price
- REZA (8/5): there is clean place and very comfort place here - the cleanses of place was very good and TV room was extermly good also breakfast was fine , services was good and also caring staff , there was a bus stop just around corner which can get you to city by number 29 , this bus drop you off next to check point charlie , easy access to airport via public transport too
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great location with a great breakfast - Staff was very helpful and friendly. I called in advance to inform of a late check-in and they sent me detailed instructions for getting to the hostel with public transportation (there's a bus stop right on the corner of the hostel). Great location, it's close to Tiergarten and a nice stroll to Brandenburg Gate. The room (dorm for 4 people) was very spacious and clean, bed was comfortable. Also the bathroom area was very clean. Breakfast really impressed me both for the quality and variety.
- chu (10/5): clean, good breakfast incl in room rate, comfort - nice
- Solo Traveller (10/5): City Break - Very convenient once you have discovered the best way to get there via public transport. Thank you Google maps !
- Marina (10/5): Great stay for the unbelievably cheap price! - We stayed for one night only in a twin room for an unbelievably cheap price - $20 per night!!! We expected to get twin room with shared bathroom and were so surprised to see shower and toilet inside our room! And don't forget free breakfast + free wi-fi everywhere! The location is good: close to Tiergarten, 15 min walk to Potsdamer Platz, 10 min walk to Kurfürstenstrasse subway station. We payed for our stay at the time of making the reservation through hotels.com and got confirmation from my sister's bank that $20 dollars were charged from her account. But when checking-in we were told by the staff at the reception that the hostel hadn't received the money. I showed them paper confirmation from hotels.com saying that the reservation was paid in full. We agreed that everything is ok and I don't have to pay anything (beside €10 deposit for the key which was going to be returned to me on check-out). But later I received message from my bank stating that my card was charged for €20. In fact I used my card when making another reservation in the hostel (with payment upon check-in + free cancellation) but I cancelled it 2 months before so I think it was some kind of mistake and my card was charged for that cancelled reservation. But huge respect + thanks to the staff at the reception and the manager! They reacted very awesome trying to find out what really happened and ended up giving me back 20 euros in cash. Thank you again for the help and understanding! I really appreciated it
- Rick (10/5): My first choice in Berlin - Love the free wifi, inexpensive dinner and convenient location for art galleries
- JohnDaniel (6/5): - The weather in the area made it very warm and very uncomfortable to stay in the room during the day. No air conditioning and fans.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Okay hostel - Overall it's an okay place to stay. The staff was helpful and the room was clean. Even though it's within walking distance of some tourist attractions, I would look for a hostel that's near more things to do. Its kind of out of the way. Also I felt like I was staying in a nursing home. The average age was over 50.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Close to City Center - The hostel was one of the better ones I have stayed at. It was non intrusive, and the breakfast was pretty good. It relatively close to the city center, and definitely within walking distance of many sites. If you needed to take a train, a stop was just 2 blocks away. Overall it was a good stay.
