Authentic in its look, bohemian in its feel, Sail On channels something very Berlin. Set against the backdrop of an 1880s Altbau, this home is filled with history. Some of the furniture comes with that old-school classroom feel, and the checkerboard floor is also stunning. Kreuzberg isn’t for everyone, but it encapsulates the Berliner spirit perfectly – it’s especially suitable for travellers keen to be bang in the middle of all things cool.

It’s the neighbourhood that never seems to sleep due to its vibrant nightlife paired with plenty of casual restaurants, street food and art galleries.
