A Home Away From Home: My Experience at Kiez Hostel ! Stepping out of my home country for the first time was nerve-wracking, but Kiez Hostel instantly put me at ease. The friendly and gentle staff welcomed me like family, making the transition to a new environment incredibly smooth. Their dedication to efficient and timely maintenance ensured a comfortable stay, and the convenient location near supermarkets like Aldi (just 150 meters away!), allowed me to easily prepare my own meals while still enjoying the vibrant atmosphere of the hostel. What truly surprised me was the perfect blend of tranquility and liveliness at Kiez. While the hostel itself offered a quiet and safe environment, just 100 meters away lies Warschauer Straße station, a bustling hub for both party-goers and families. This convenient location allowed me to explore both sides of Berlin's dynamic personality with ease. During my stay, I met over 15 incredible individuals from across the globe, each encounter enriching my experience. The hostel fostered a truly unique atmosphere, making it a "home away from home" in every sense of the word. If you're looking for a welcoming and comfortable base to explore the city, I highly recommend Kiez. You won't be disappointed!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

I stayed in a pod and it was the right option for solo travelers on dormitory budget, with the advantage of having a bit more privacy and isolating yourself from other people's snoring. You get access to a locker and 5 shared toilets and showers. Breakfast could have been more generous. It was ok but could do much better in terms of the variety of things. Great location in Mitte. Right in front of Tram station and 3-5 minute walk from U-bahn and S-bahn station

Amazing hostel! Everything was clean, tidy and organised. Great location, close to heaps of restaurants. Lots of fridge space, big kitchen and multiple sitting areas. They also host heaps of communal activities which was great for meeting people and are big on being quiet at night and respecting peoples sleep. Couldn't recommend any higher

EastSeven is truly one of the best hostels I’ve stayed at. Things I liked about it were: - Super friendly staff members that gave great recommendations and were always around to help - Spacious rooms with comfy beds - Easy to use kitchen and fridge space - Great, safe location (close to train station, cute neighbourhood, walking distance to city) - Activities every night run by the team (eg dinner night, board games, drinking games, etc) - Great outdoor area for chatting with other people in the hostel
