Friedrichshain is well-known for its nightlife, so if you fancy sampling some of Berlin's famous clubs, Cobalt Chronicle is an ideal base. We loved the industrial-chic design with its rough plaster walls and micro-cement flooring throughout. The shared rooftop terrace, complete with panoramic view, sauna, BBQ and sweet bamboo garden, provides a welcome space to retreat from the busy streets below. And as the only bed in the apartment is fairly modest in size, it's ideal for short stays.

About Friedrichshain

Just across the bridge from Kreuzberg and to the east of Mitte, you find Friedrichshain - a neighbourhood with an edgy, creative and slightly gritty vibe that’s popular with much of Berlin’s artsy crowd and students similar to Kreuzberg and Neukölln. Friedrichshain’s East Berlin heritage is still an integral part of its current identity with the monumental GDR-era boulevard, Karl-Marx-Allee, being one of the main arteries through the neighbourhood.
