Fodor's Expert Review Riehmers Hofgarten
Yorckstr. 83, Berlin, Berlin, 10965, Germany See on Map
The appeal of this late-19th-century apartment house with a leafy courtyard is its location in the lively neighborhood of Kreuzberg. The richly decorated facade hints that 100 years ago the aristocratic officers of Germany's imperial army lived here. Rooms have low-lying beds and are spartanly modern and quiet, but with the added touches of tea- and coffeemakers as well as iPod docks. In less than five minutes you can reach the subway that speeds you to Mitte and the Friedrichstrasse train station.
