"A home-away-from-home vibe pervades this stylish boutique hotel, just a short walk from the cobblestoned Savignyplatz in the city’s posh Charlottenburg district. Kitted out with low-slung midcentury-modern furniture, literary-themed artwork, and bookshelves stocked with art tomes, the lobby has plenty of cozy nooks that invite lounging. A long communal wood table in a central kitchen area serves triple duty: a reception desk, breakfast spot, and coworking space for laptop-wielding digital nomads. But the real draw here is the back room, where floor-to-ceiling windows overlook a pretty garden and a circular glassed-in fireplace keeps things warm during chilly Berlin winters. Keeping with the casual, homey ambiance, there is no formal reception desk; you check in and out in the lounge." - Jennifer Ceaser, Liz Humphreys
