Boutique Hotels in Berlin
Compact, distinctive and with a clear design signature. Few European cities pack boutique hotels as densely as Berlin.
The counterpoint to the hotel chain: 20 to 80 rooms, each individually styled and frequently housed in period buildings or former factory halls. The densest choice is in Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg, though Mitte and Prenzlauer Berg offer first-rate houses too.
Best districts for boutique hotels

Alternative, creative and buzzing. Nightlife that knows no bounds, street art on every corner and cafés that stay open into the late evening.
H.Helmlechner · CC BY-SA 4.0Mitte
Stately, steeped in history, urban and elegant. By day tourists set the scene, by evening it is theatre and fine dining.

Family-friendly, green and relaxed. Cafés with a kids' corner, Sundays at Mauerpark and period buildings full of stucco.
