About

Das Literaturhotel Berlin

Das Literaturhotel Berlin sits in the residential Friedenau district, a short stroll from the S1 and U9 lines. The 3-star hotel occupies an old building with Biedermeier-style furnishings, parquet floors, and a relaxed, unhurried atmosphere. Guests have praised the spacious, clean rooms and the views over the hotel's private garden.

Mornings start with a buffet breakfast served in a light, open dining room, with fresh fruit, yoghurt, eggs, and breads. The staff are consistently described as friendly and accommodating, and the hotel keeps things simple: no smoking inside, pets allowed, and free parking right on site.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Helpful, friendly staff — Guests repeatedly mention the warm welcome and attentive service, from reception to breakfast.
  • Quick links to the city centre — The S1 and U9 stations are a short walk away, putting central Berlin within easy reach.

  • A substantial breakfast buffet — Served in a bright dining room, with fresh fruit, eggs, cheese, and breads – a strong start to the day.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Away from the tourist centre — The hotel sits in a residential suburb, so expect a 15-minute ride to the main sights rather than stepping out of the front door into them.
  • Limited evening dining options — While there are cafes and restaurants within walking distance, the hotel itself only offers breakfast – no on-site dinner service.
  • Check-in hours are fixed — Reception is open from 15:00 to 22:00, so arrival outside these windows needs planning.

“I had a wonderful stay at this hidden gem. The Biedermeier furniture and old-style sofas in the breakfast salon gave it a unique charm. The breakfast was delicious, like home cooking. I loved relaxing in the large garden, and the reliable internet let me blog about my Berlin adventures. The location was ideal with easy access to the S-Bahn and great restaurants nearby. The friendly reception and quiet surroundings made it perfect. I can't wait to book again.”
