Hostels di Berlin

Reasonable price, friendly staff and convenient location. This hostel is a great choice for your Berlin trip.

The entrance to the hostel is an actual cafe! Thought that was cool. We booked for the 6 bed womens’ room, but when we got there, they told us it had been overbooked and upgraded us to a 2 bed room!! The room was very comfortable and had lots of sunlight coming in when we opened the blinds. We hadn’t brought towels but we were able to borrow them at the desk for €2.50 (I think? I don’t remember the exact amount but it was below €3 for sure!). The showers and toilets get a bit crowded in the morning but that was manageable. It’s very close to a bus station and in the same building as an ALDI so that was also very convenient!

The hostel was alright, but the room feels quite small, I’m 5,5 and can’t even seat straight at the bottom bed, and to be absolutely honest, I believe the toilet signs should be more clear about male and female showers and toilet, would also recommend working on the cleanness of the shower room as well. On the other hand, the staff were all pretty friendly and willing to help, some doesn’t speak English and that did caused confusion to me but everything was good at the end. Over all I’m happy with my stay but probably won’t come back for the next time.

Generator Berlin Alexanderplatz is a fantastic choice for travelers looking for a modern, affordable, and centrally located place to stay in Berlin. Situated right next to Alexanderplatz, the hostel offers excellent access to public transport, making it easy to explore the city’s main attractions, restaurants, and nightlife. The design of the hostel is stylish and contemporary, with a vibrant atmosphere that appeals especially to young travelers and backpackers. The common areas, including the lounge and bar, are lively and well-maintained, creating a great space to meet other guests and socialize. Rooms are clean and comfortable, with options ranging from shared dormitories to private rooms. While dorms can feel a bit busy at times, they are well-organized and provide secure storage for belongings. The beds are comfortable, and the overall cleanliness of the facility is commendable. The staff are friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with directions, recommendations, or any issues during your stay. The hostel also offers useful amenities such as free Wi-Fi, luggage storage, and 24-hour reception, which adds to the convenience. One minor downside could be the noise level, especially in the evenings due to the bar and central location. However, this is expected in such a lively area and may not be an issue for those looking to enjoy Berlin’s energetic vibe. Overall, Generator Berlin Alexanderplatz delivers great value for money, combining comfort, location, and a social atmosphere. It is highly recommended for budget-conscious travelers who still want a stylish and enjoyable stay in Berlin.

The location of the hotel was perfect, very close to the train station and thus walkable to a lot of the main tourist spots. Overall super satisfied and recommend. The hostel also had a public kitchen for use, which makes preparing meals to be very convenient.

Small kitchen, very small. By far the least clean hostel I have been to. You have to put your own bedding in (they provide it at the reception) and the cleanliness is questionable. There were some kids in my floor running around from room to room almost all day and night which completely ruined my peace. Location is the good thing about this place.

This is a very big hostel with hundreds of beds, though it did not feel cramped or loud. I had a quiet stay.   I stayed for 2 nights in a mixed dorm with three bunk beds and en-suite. The toilet and shower are separate which makes use easier. Hanson’s and shower gel is included, as is a hairdryer.   The room is spacious with tables and seating areas, this is also of use to those who on the top bunk who cannot sit on their bed as easily.  There is a mirror though a lack of hooks being only a hook and couple of hangers. The bed is of a metal frame and thus I was able to apply my travel straps and hooks to create places to hand my coat and bag. There is a locker big enough to take hand luggage sized bag (own lock needed).  The bed has a usb port for charging and a slot into which a phone will fit, though no individual light. The room has two lights and it is possible to turn on only one; the other people in my room came in and out at unsociable hours though we’re all respectful being quiet and also putting in the main light.   The mattress and pillow are comfy enough, you need to collect linen and make the bed yourself.  Everything was clean.  Reception is 24 hours though checking us via one of the 4 automated screens. It is through the machines that you do check in and pay tourist tax and the machine prints paper with your allocated room and bed number. You even activate the room card yourself. There is a sign in the desk with a map of blocks with room numbers in each one. That is all the welcome that you get; there is no explanation related to hostel layout or facilities. I had to ask in which direction to go to get to my block, the receptionist gave my directions and once I got to the room and found no bedding on the bed so went back to reception. The check in computer screen states that bed linen is provided free of charge and towels can be paid for at reception. The receptionist did not give me any bedding nor point to where to where to pick it up some thus I assumed the linen would be laid on the bed as in other hostels. The next day a person arriving in the room asked where he gets bed linen, he also did not get given any bedding even when talking with the receptionist. I do find it odd that you are expected to ask for the bedding: as this is the case I recommend updating the wording on the computer screen as it is ambiguous and gives the impression you only need to ask at reception if needing a towel.  There is a guest kitchen which has basic equipment: fridge, sink, microwave, 2 hot plates, 2 frying pans, 1 saucepan, some plates, bowls and some cutlery. There was one mug in which I made a cup of tea by heating water in the microwave. I recommend a kettle to boil water. The kitchen is sufficient for simple meals, making breakfast and sandwiches. I did not try the hostel breakfast.  There is one common area near reception with a bar and possibility to purchase food. Vending machines there. WiFi reliable. The common room can feel cramped when groups are there. There is good security as all entrance doors and lifts use card access. To access the guest kitchen ask at reception and they update your card.  The location is very good being 5 min walk from Ostkreuz train station. It is a direct line to Messe Nord where the bus station and FlixBus stop is. Easy to get public transportation into the cities. There are many shops, supermarkets and eating places nearby. Vegan kebab shop directly opposite.  Good value for money. I had a comfortable stay with no difficulties and I would stay again.

The and staff was great. The hostel just felt very public as anyone could come to the bar and it felt quite unsociable and not safe for a solo female traveler. I think in big groups it would be okay. There’s also no kitchen, which was disappointing but it says on the listing.

It was an amazing experience staying at enjoy hotel berlin, the staff was helpful and friendly

I stayed there myself in a 4 bed dormitory room. It was an excellent room and I liked the service. But it is better to have a socket near the bed for charging. They have two usb charging ports near every beds but it is better to have a c port or a charging socket. But overall, I liked it. Especially the staffs are always helpful. I am highly recommend it to whom who are looking for a cheap accommodation😊
