Plus Berlin

Top choice in Friedrichshain


A hostel with a pool, steam room and yoga classes? Yep. Close to Berlin's best nightlife, this flashpacker favourite is like a hostel resort. There's a bar for easing into the night and a tranquil courtyard to soothe that hangover. Spacious dorms have four or six bunks, desks and lockers, while private rooms have TV and air-con. All have en suites.

The optional breakfast costs €7.50.
