Hotel Britzer Tor  

In vibrant Neukölln, Berlin — a privately owned hotel set in a vintage 1870 building. Close to Treptower Park, the East Side Gallery and the Molecule Man landmark. About 7 km from the city center. Pet-friendly and family-friendly for travelers who want a local neighborhood base.

Refurbished in 2007, the building spans three floors plus a rooftop apartment that sleeps up to seven. Rooms are on the compact side with LED TVs, desks, showers and hair dryers. There’s a small basement sauna and an elevator, though some stairs and narrow layouts make the place less suited for guests with full mobility needs. Free WiFi in all rooms, daily housekeeping, plus free maps and local tour recommendations.

Garden views and a cozy basement sauna set a relaxed tone. On-site perks include a restaurant, barbecue grills, shopping on site and tour/ticket assistance. Luggage storage, complimentary lobby newspapers and multilingual staff keep things easy. Pets allowed and a family room option round out the practical touches.

Complimentary wireless internet throughout the property and desks in rooms. Luggage storage and multilingual staff help business travelers stay organized.

Daily buffet breakfast is served (until 10:00 AM, for a fee). On-site restaurant and barbecue facilities give simple, flexible options for morning coffee or a casual evening meal.
