Boasting breathtaking views across Berlin's rooftops, this lavish home in the beating heart of Friedrichshain provides an idyllic base for exploring the city. You'll find it in the lively Boxhagener Kiez neighbourhood, nestled in a leafy corner of Altbau architecture and surrounded by public transport links. Here, you're a four-minute stroll from Boxhagener Platz, famed for its weekly markets and trendy tangle of independent cafes, eateries, bars and boutiques. 

We love this home's thoughtful design aesthetic. Perched on the top floor, its open-plan layout boasts a loft-style charm adorned with vibrant artwork, stylish decor and high-end appliances. Every aspect of this home promises a want-for-nothing stay, from the fully-fitted kitchen and rooftop dining terrace to the high-end entertainment set-up, complete with a projector and sound system for those cosy movie nights in.

Throughout, it's a timeless canvas of white walls, oak parquet floors and large south-facing windows, ushering sunlight to flood the space. Spend mornings roosted on one of the four terraces and balconies, sipping coffee before slipping out to grab brunch - we recommend Silo, a two-minute walk away.

Float Away is about as unique as they come, and while it might look like a boat, it’s actually a floating home with no motor. Moored in a beautiful part of Berlin's Citymarina, it’s perfect for guests looking to experience an alternative side of the city – or to escape the hustle and bustle of places like Mitte and Kreuzberg. In asheltered spot overlooking the calm waters of the Spree, we think this one is pretty special.

Needless to say, it’s on the smaller side, but we only think that adds to its charm. Perfect for a couple, it's got everything you could need onboard for a quiet weekend away. If you're lucky with the weather you can even eat outside on the small deck. Or take the short walk to the harbourside restaurant.

Sitting atop a modern building, Musical Genius flows over Friedrichshain and provides an unobstructed bird-eye view of the modern city. It’s minimalist in style, which only adds more character to the antique family heirlooms that are so well-maintained that it looks as if they were created yesterday. Every corner of this home tells a story as it’s packed with personal touches like the beautiful fashion sketches and artworks created by the host’s children. Musical Genius also comes complete with a harp and piano for you to use - and let’s not forget about the sauna.

We're loving the bohemian-chic approach to this urban pad, placed in Berlin's traffic-calmed Friedrichshain neighbourhood – where indie boutiques and casual cafes create an alternative, artsy vibe. 

There are three stylish bedrooms with dedicated office spaces in each one, making the home ideal for business trips and friendly get-togethers with one eye on work. Stylish decorative details are everywhere to be seen, with intentional yet minimalist decor creating a relaxed atmosphere. Gather the group together for some German apple pancakes in the sleek communal area as you hatch out the day's plan. 

With so much to see and do, make sure you factor in less work and a lot more play to your stay here. We recommend starting with a half-hour walk through the surrounding area to the historic East Side Gallery, before hopping on the metro to sprawling Kreuzberg – beloved by students and locals alike for its quirky thrift shops, cafe culture and landscaped Viktoriapark – twenty-eight minutes from your apartment.

Always dreamt of living on a boat? Well, now’s your chance. Found on the Spree, Rock The Boat offers an experience out of the ordinary (it can even be rented with a crew for an additional touch of luxury). The interiors are masterfully designed by Davide Rizzo, and the attention to detail shows – we loved the cosy fireplace, airy bedrooms, and the collection of antiques decorating every corner. It’s simple really, we can’t say no to a place like this – especially when it involves such stunning and calming views of the water.

Immerse yourself in the creative spirit of Berlin from this apartment nestled in Friedrichshain. From here, you can stroll to the Spree River and you’ll find a range of restaurants and shops within easy walking distance. Wherever the day takes you, this apartment makes it easy to switch off and unwind. There are two seating areas here – one is an indoor balcony, the other an outdoor terrace – and the open-plan living room has a sound system to set the tone for a laid-back stay. Remote workers will also appreciate the dedicated desks, including a workspace in the main bedroom.

Sun Salutations is flooded with positivity. It’s a calming and welcoming one-bedroom home in edgy Friedrichshain with lots of natural light. We love the fantastically high ceilings and how every little detail is brimming with a thoughtful and easy-going feel. Especially suited to travellers inspired by Buddhist philosophies, yoga and spirituality, this home genuinely encourages you to take a step back, relax and slow down. 

Sun Salutations

Surrounded by cafes, restaurants and bars, this Friedrichshain apartment is a charming base for two couples or a small family. The boho style adds another layer of comfort to the bright space, and with a desk per bedroom, it even works for business trips. Though the views from the balcony aren't the most inspiring, the outdoor table is still a nice touch – especially for alfresco meals. As for the location, you can use nearby public transport links to visit the Berlin War Memorial. Or why not take a historical boat trip on the Spree?

Berlin's Melodie

If a typical Berlin flat in the heart of trendy Friedrichshain is what you’re after, then Garnet Touch is perfect for you. With a fully equipped kitchen and a small bedroom, we would recommend this home for a single traveller or young couple. It faces the backyard and can therefore be a little dark, but with the nearest train station only 500 metres away and Boxhagener Platz and its weekend food and flea market, we doubt you’ll be spending much time indoors anyway.

Enjoy the weekend food market and flea market at Boxhagener Platz, which is just around the corner from Polar Bear. Although this home is not the most luxurious, it covers all the basics (washing machine and dryer, fully equipped kitchen, Netflix and Amazon Prime Video). This is a good base in a great location, so if you’re planning on spending your days out and about exploring Berlin, Polar Bear might just be the right fit for you.

Record Player

Situated in Friedrichshain, this modern apartment is perfectly located for Spree-side strolls and gallery visits. There’s not one balcony here, but two – start the day with breakfast on one and post-sightseeing drinks on the second. While we hope you’ll spend most of your time exploring, there’s a handy desk for remote workers. This spot is in a young and alternative neighbourhood, though if you want to see the inner city’s famous landmarks, you can hop on the U-Bahn from Berlin Ostkreuz – it’s a ten-minute walk away.

Once you’ve braved the stairs to reach Airwaves (all five floors), you’re justly rewarded. The flat is small, but it’s been put together wonderfully, with every inch of space used, and used well. The furniture skews vintage, and combined with the pared-back aesthetic, the whole flat feels like a haven, away from the hectic streets below. And those streets can get busy. Friedrichshain has one of the best art and music scenes in Europe, and Airwaves is as good a place as any from which to explore.

Alexander’s home is simply amazing. He’s renovated everything himself, using the structure of the old stables to make something completely unique. A photographer and artist, every single part of this home tells a story – from the many souvenirs to the raw, exposed brickwork. Located right by Boxhagener Platz in Friedrichshain, there’s also plenty to do in the immediate area. A treat for the soul and eyes, The Photographer’s Stable is a home that shouldn't be missed.

The Photographer's Stable

Show and Tell is one of those homes that’s brimming with charisma. From the high ceilings to the vintage mid-century furniture and Moroccan style tiles, small treasures are hiding around every corner waiting to be found. A family home to the bone, it also houses a piano (great for playing cheery tunes) and a stylish children’s bedroom with bunk beds. Moments away from Volkspark Friedrichshain, you’re in an attractive part of Berlin that’s full of soul.

Your host, Kitty, is an illustrator and this beautiful, luminescent apartment is her studio. We love how she’s transformed it into an elegant living space with more character than you can shake a paintbrush at. From her original art above the bed to her easels and paints sitting alongside an extraordinary collection of books and ornaments, this space is an art lover’s haven and a truly unique way in which to experience the city. The light here, too, is dazzling, pouring in through the floor-to-ceiling windows and French doors that lead out onto a private balcony. Sit here with your morning coffee and one of the many books, and relish the tranquillity of your inner courtyard setting. With a luxurious green-tiled tub (and the bathroom's underfloor heating) to retreat to after a day of exploring Berlin by foot, this home truly offers a canvas for a blissfully relaxing time. Outside of your home, you’ve got the Prenzlauer Berg neighbourhood on your doorstep packed with independent eateries, design boutiques, bike rentals, supermarkets, public parks and cosy coffee shops. Visit Mauerpark’s Sunday flea market (a twenty-five-minute walk), check out the KulturBrauerei for hip shops and music clubs (a fifteen-minute walk) or indulge in some retail therapy along trendy Kastanienallee and Alte Schönhauser Allee (both a twenty-minute stroll). Further afield, Museum Island – a UNESCO World Heritage Site – is a thirty-minute walk, while Alexanderplatz is ten minutes away on the subway.

The Estelle has something of a dreamlike quality. It’s hard to put a finger on what it is exactly that makes it so, but it is noticeable. The treehouse in the shared garden adds something to this sense of wonder – maybe it's the jubilant sounds coming from neighbourhood children playing. Inside everything is cool and calm, and while the decor is on the minimalist side, there’s been a serious effort to keep the design coherent, and it feels very much of Berlin.


The Estelle

There’s a lot to like about Fruitful. Bright (courtesy of the huge windows), modern, and characterful, it’s a charming Prenzlauer Berg escape. Best of all? It’s super close to Volkspark Friedrichshain, one of Berlin’s most beloved parks. As it faces an inner courtyard, it’s pretty tranquil. But it’s still a studio, so don’t expect lots and lots of space (the bedroom is only separated from the living space by a partitioning wall).

Boasting a sought-after location in the beating heart of Berlin Mitte and a stone's throw from Prenzlauer Berg, this stylish home provides an idyllic base for families and groups of friends. Here, you're a four-minute stroll from Rosenthaler Platz, with its bustling array of cafes, art galleries, eateries and bars, and handy public transport links.

You'll find this home tucked away in a leafy row of elegant, pastel-hued architecture. Inside, it's a timeless combination of high ceilings and parquet flooring, adorned with contemporary decor and a vibrant colour pallete. We love the open-plan living space, with its fully-equipped kitchen, dining table and cosy corners for relaxation, including a plush l-shaped sofa and little reading nook. 

Slide open the floor-to-ceiling glass doors and discover the sleek private balcony. Offering pretty views of the courtyard below, this is your very own secluded sanctuary from Mitte's hustle and bustle. After a restful slumber, spend mornings perched here, coffee cup in hand, enjoying the peace and quiet, before slipping out for breakfast. For baked goods and coffee, we recommend Zeit für Brot, five minutes away on foot and conveniently located next to Weinberg Park, a beautiful spot for picnics.

The Acrobat

You can tell that your host is an architect the minute you walk through this home’s door. Bright and minimalist, it feels like a creative studio with its pared-back furnishings and white walls. And of course, the apartment’s most striking feature – undoubtedly a source of inspiration, creative or otherwise – is its huge picture windows giving way to views towards Alexanderplatz and the Berlin TV Tower. You’ll love cosying up on the window-side bench with your morning cup of coffee while feasting on the vistas, or kicking back on the window-facing sofa with a glass of wine as the sun sets over the city. There’s a cute viewing platform with a skylight too for those who want an even better bird’s eye view while the bedroom’s slanted window lets you wake up and enjoy the city’s rooftops first thing. Outside of your home, you’re a fifteen-minute walk from leafy Volkspark Friedrichshain, a twenty-five-minute stroll from the East Side Gallery, while Alexanderplatz is reachable by public transport in just fifteen minutes. 


Simple Living

Located in a former jelly factory turned art gallery turned apartment, this loft is very special indeed. Your host, Arthur, is an architect and he has poured his heart and soul into this place. With high ceilings, Danish furniture, a balcony facing the Spree and walls filled with Arthur’s own photography, it’s a must if you’re looking for a stylish base from which to explore Berlin. Begin mornings on the L-shaped couch with a freshly brewed coffee before serving up a traditional German breakfast in the dining area. When you’re ready to explore, you’ll find the Wall Museum a fifteen-minute walk from your doorstep. It’ll take you eighteen minutes on the bus to reach Treptower Park – a local favourite for picnics in the summertime. To dive into the city’s history, catch the U-Bahn to Checkpoint Charlie and Brandenburger Tor. And when evening falls, hang about in your trendy Kreuzberg locale – it’s filled with lively restaurants, bars and hidden nightlife spots.

Loft Me Up

Avocado might be small, but it’s well-suited for a stay in Berlin. It’s within walking distance to Rosenthaler Platz – one of our favourite spots in Mitte, filled with coffee shops, restaurants, and boutiques. Prenzlauer Berg is also not too far away. While it’s definitely not the kind of place you host a dinner party, it makes for a great, comfy, and cosy Berlin base.

The Big Easy is managed by the architecture company that designed the entire building, as well as the living units. This studio apartment is decked out with custom-made furniture, exposed concrete walls, and industrial flooring, to create an artistic loft-like space. We love the floor-to-ceiling windows and the private balcony is an added bonus. Overall, the minimalist approach might not appeal to all, but if you’re looking for a balance between home comforts and hotel-like luxuries, this is a great spot for you.

With a funky mix of global influences, The Ventriloquist is Berlin chic to the bone. It’s easy to see that a lot of time and effort has been put into picking the right decorations – from the safari-style wall decorations to the tribal print rugs. There’s also a projector screen in the living room, encouraging you to stay in, slow down and watch a film. The immediate area might be a little too touristy for some, but there are also plenty of nearby places we love – one of them being Weinberg Park, the perfect spot to enjoy a sunny afternoon.

The Ventriloquist

There are so many interesting aspects to this home, it’s hard to choose which to focus on. The building itself is clad with burnt wood and dark blue metal panels – there to reflect the site’s former space observatory. All the surfaces within the building are raw and honest, such as the exposed concrete, which shows the scars of construction. Sadly, this studio apartment is small, and the concrete columns within make it even more cramped. Nonetheless, this home is ideally located close to some of Berlin’s best attractions, such as the Jewish Museum and the Martin-Gropius-Bau. 

Relax, Take it Easy

Parsley is like instant happiness – it's full of colour, chic decor and luscious houseplants. We love the bright shades of green mixing with the more saturated hues for an eye-catching look. There's somewhat of a 1960s feel to the apartment that we find super stylish and refreshing. There's a range of retro prints and tasteful artwork around the home too and the best part about it all? These trendy interiors are inside a charming Altbau building, with heaps of character, big windows and high ceilings, creating a bright and airy space to relax. The location is also great, with Alexanderplatz less than a five-minute walk away, equalling easy access to some of Berlin’s most popular sights. You're just over a kilometre from Museum Island, plus the eight courtyards of Hackesher Market are right around the corner. 

Parsley

Toasted Almond is definitely one of a kind. The camel colour palette, beechwood, marble counter-tops and high-quality materials give a sophisticated feel. Flooded with sunlight from the balcony windows, you might not want to leave. The private balcony overlooks an internal courtyard with a playground – although the host asks guests to be considerate of noise for the sake of the neighbours. It might not be the most central home in the city, but the quiet residential area is surrounded by parks, ideal for those who prefer a slower pace of life.

Baroque Chronology is the kind of eclectic home that you can only find in Berlin. Part Baroque dream, part DDR-era building, it’s a place where contrasts meet to make something new. With antique Swarovski chandeliers, a Berlin mural, vintage mahogany furniture, and the 1980s style jacuzzi, it’s got a theatrical feel. Baroque Chronology might not be for everyone, but curious minds and people looking for luxurious beds will feel right at home here. 

Baroque Chronology

Animalia is one of those homes that manages to tell a story. All the artworks are original pieces made by the host and his father, and the beautiful vintage-style cast iron chairs are sourced from his uncle’s bar. The space could be a bit tight for six guests, but it would be perfect for a family or a small group of friends coming to experience the city.

Bright and minimalist, it's a home with a spectacular view too. On the top floor and boasting not one but two spacious terraces, you can gaze across the rooftops and make the most of the evening sunshine in the summer months. The nearby church makes for an impressive backdrop and if you're hooked on views you can even visit it on a Sunday and climb its tall tower.

Inside, white walls and pine floors mix with sloping ceilings, plentiful house plants and little dashes of character, to make for a relaxing, stylish city home. You'll have a bedroom sleeping up to three and the living room easily converts into a second sleeping space – although you'd be sacrificing your indoor starting. Buzzing Arkonaplatz and its popular flea market is only a short walk from your door and this lovely part of the city is packed with great bars and restaurants.

Industrial meets rustic, Candid Camera is one of a kind. Located just fifteen minutes from Volkspark Friedrichshain, you’re in a beautiful area packed with bars, restaurants and shops. It’s not difficult to see that Ludger has put a lot of love and effort into designing this space, especially when it comes to all the eye-catching decorations. With a well-equipped kitchen and a cosy terrace, it’s a great place to unwind after a long day of sightseeing.

Making Waves is one of a kind. Situated just behind Berlin’s cluster of galleries, it’s also within walking distance to the architectural masterpiece that is Gleisdreieck Park. On top of being fully equipped (the kitchen is a particular favourite of ours), we also love how stylish it is. Much of the furniture is custom made for the space, and it has a tranquil atmosphere that we can’t get over. As a bonus, it has Sonos speakers in every single room – this includes the bathroom for all the people who enjoy a good sing along session in the shower.

Making Waves

The Contortionist is very special. Brimming with natural light, each room is designed with meticulous attention to detail – we love the different wallpapers and mix of pastel hues. The rooftop is its superpower, the striking views of Berlin with the TV Tower in the distance are mesmerising. The beds aren’t as luxurious as we would like them to be, but luckily all the bedrooms are captivating and filled with lots of small, curated details.

The Contortionist

Those who are particular about their design will fall head over heels for this penthouse apartment. For a start, the exterior is rather unique, as it's a new wooden development adapted respectfully on top of an industrial building dating back to 1905. The interior is a shining beacon of clean minimalism, in which every item has been selected carefully for maximum impact. The artwork on the walls, for example, is curated by different galleries and artists, and, as such, changes quite regularly. The kitchen, too, has been hidden away in a cabinet, so there's nothing but sleek white walls when it's not in use, and the linens are made from pure organic cotton. Sustainability is at the core of every piece of furniture and fixture within this home, with each piece carefully selected to have minimal environmental impact. Out through the glass doors — which are nothing but generous when it comes to natural light — you'll find the roof terrace, on which there's plenty of seating and a range of plants chosen for their fragrances, from bedstraw and thyme to wall pepper. Located in the quieter north of the Mitte district, there are lots of green spaces and historical curiosities to be found nearby, including the Silent Green Kulturquartier three minutes' walk away and Humbolthain state park only a quarter of an hour away.

White Wedding

Nestled in the central downtown area of the historic city of Berlin, this home is perfect for guests looking to go out and explore this amazing city. The apartment itself boasts a wonderfully artsy atmosphere, featuring the creative works of local Berlin artists that really are a treat to behold, with many being pieces you can purchase and bring back. Step through the front door to be welcomed by fresh, open spaces, comfortable and welcoming furniture, and a sense of the genuine love that has gone into this home.

As the apartment is close to Berlin Nordbahnhof, guests are extremely well-connected to the rest of the city, and is perfect for those preferring to use public transport, which we have to admit is the ideal way to travel during a city escape. After breakfast and the day's first crisp cup of coffee, head out to experience Berlin culture and life at its finest, with visits to Museum Island, the iconic Berlin Wall, and Brandenburg Gate, while a day spent in the city centre shopping, sightseeing, and sampling delicious local delicacies can have you out from dusk 'til dawn. We highly recommend trying the local schnitzel with a hearty pint of Hofbrau Oktoberfest.

Adventurous. Nostalgic. Sophisticated. The Ivory Empress is all of that and more. Set in a building from the 1900s, its history is celebrated by the light colour palette, gorgeous wooden floors and magnificent works of art. It’s easy to see that the host has an eye for design – most things are sourced from flea markets, with each piece of art and furniture telling a story. Located right on the border between Kreuzberg and Neukölln in a neighbourhood the locals call Kreuzkölln, this five-bedroom home is in a place where hipster coffee shops meet multicultural Berlin.

The Ivory Empress

Our favourite thing about My Cobalt Diary was undoubtedly the balcony. Bright, refreshing, and cosy, it overlooks a typical Berliner courtyard, with greenery during the summer months. Found in the heart of the city, many of Berlin’s most popular attractions are nearby – including Hackescher Markt and the Spree. We also loved how well-connected it is – you can easily reach the likes of Kreuzberg, Neukölln, and Friedrichshain. It’s worth noting that it’s a studio, so don’t expect lots and lots of space.

My Cobalt Diary

With a large, well-equipped kitchen, and a wonderful patio, there’s no getting around the fact that this home is set up for having a good time. There’s also a sauna, which is the ultimate post-sightseeing treat. Location-wise, it almost doesn’t get any better than this. Rosenthaler Platz is rich in culture, and it’s also one of our favourite neighbourhoods – get ready to explore modern art galleries, one-of-a-kind cafes, quirky bars, and lots and lots of co-working spaces.
