If you like to plan your travels so as to cater for your own tastes and time-frames, why stay in a hotel? A real home in one of the many unique streets of Berlin could be much more pleasant.
You can make tea at any time, whist taking in the city from your flat’s balcony, or enjoy the luxury of breakfast in bed, whilst you plan your day. On your return you will find a warm and welcoming environment which is miles away from an anonymous hotel room.
Berlin – a cosmopolitan, exciting capital, a city of culture with international appeal. In the middle of it all: the Berlinale – not only the city’s largest cultural event, but also one of the most important dates on the international film industry’s calendar. More than 19,000 film professionals from 120 countries, including 4,000 journalists, are accredited for the Berlin International Film Festival every year. At the same time, it is a festival of encounters and discussions. With more than 200,000 tickets sold, the Berlinale is not only a film industry meeting. It also enjoys by far the largest audience of any film festival in the world. For two weeks, art, glamour, parties and business meet at the Berlinale.
