You're thinking about going to Berlin but have no clue where to stay? Here are five options that could suit your budget and taste.

Michelberger Hotel

A favorite among the creative types, Michelberger’s mismatched flea market furniture and come-as-you-are vibe make this hotel a true hipster haven. There are loft spaces for three and spacious rooms for six ideal for groups that like to eat, sleep, work or play together.

It's located within walking distance from Warschauer Street (known as the clubbing mile) and in between the city’s two nightlife hubs, Kreuzberg and Freidrichshein, making it the perfect choice for party revelers. Its 24-hour bar lounge is great for odd-hour nightcaps and post-party recovery meal.

From the Hotel Adlon Kempinski, a skip and a hop would take you to the iconic Brandenburg Gate and the Berlin Wall making this hotel a great choice for luxury travelers. Its large, ostentatious rooms, superb conference facilities and first class restaurants would give any business traveler an elegant address in Berlin.

A doorman in a black suit and top hat, gilded chandeliers, velvet curtains and upholstery speak of traditional European opulence. Michael Jackson couldn’t have been more stylishly luxurious in his choice of hotel balcony from which to dangle his baby back in 2002.
