Best European City :)

The young lively atmosphere here is so unique for a city which has had such a turbulent and uncertain history. So many fascinating and exciting places to visit for people with so many interests. The buildings are so contrasting; the gothic old catherdrals, new modern universities and the more run down areas on the suburbs. VISIT BERLIN :)

A City of Elegance

If you travel to nowhere else on this planet PLEASE go to Berlin. It is a city with a heart beat like no other. There is literally something there for every cultural taste and there is a warmth of welcome that is second to none. The many people I met whilst on my second visit to the city were eager to share their time and knowledge with me. There are so many historic places touching so much European and World history it is difficult to know where to start. I would recommend the open top bus tour to familiarise yourself, The food, the hotels, the shopping, public transport is of the highest standard I have experienced in my travels. Their history is rich, accessible and honest, It is truly the capital city for the whole world.

Interesting, but not beautiful

Berlin is worth a visit. It certainly isn't boring, there's lots of touristy stuff to see, it's a good place for film, music, theatre and visual art and there's quite a lot going on if you're into nightlife - millions of trendy bars, cafes and nightclubs. Compared to other European capitals such as Paris or London, Berlin has, on the whole, a down to earth feel and the hotels are much cheaper but there is definitely a capital city snobbiness there too if you go to the trendier areas. Also, I found the service in most places decidedly second rate compared to London, and don't go there expecting Parisian beauty either. Apart from a few new buildings and the ones the bombs didn't hit, most of the architecture is plain awful - just concrete blocks, which, along with the bullet holes on the walls of the old buildings, become a bit depressing after a while. Also, the (by German standards) run-down underground system can be dangerous at night-time.

A "must visit" city

Berlin is a wonderful, vibrant and interesting city. Due to its recent past, its a fantastic mix of beautiful old baroque style buildings, and intriguing modern designs. There is loads to see and do, with an abundance of parks and woods to stroll through and escape the bustle of this busy city. Generally a very clean place, the only down side is the amount of graffiti, and amazingly for German organisation, dog mess on pavements here and there. But apart from that Berlin is almost a breath of fresh air in terms of "city break" holidays. We have been twice in a year and a half, and are due to go back again in the new year to see other bits we missed before. A must visit city. And yes, you can even go to the beach in Berlin. Strange, but true. You can even join in the sand castle building competitions!

We will definitely go back

A very clean friendly city that works. Wonderful architecture, museums, transport system and restaurants. Our hotel was excellent with first class service. We simply didn't have enough time to see all we wanted to, so we are looking forward to the next time.

Building site

Not the top european city to visit, you are never more than 50 M from building work ! eg the Brandenburg gate is ruined by the building of the new US embassy. Go to Munich instead !
