Brilliant Apartments

Top choice in Prenzlauer Berg


These 11 stylish and modern self-catering studios, two- and three-bed apartments have full kitchens, plenty of design cache and neat historic touches such as exposed red-brick walls and wooden floors. Four have balconies, one a little garden. The location puts you in the middle of a neighbourhood filled with cafes, restaurants and boutiques and close to the Mauerpark.

Apartments facing out back are quieter. Three-night minimum stay most times. The cleaning fee is €35.
