Three Little Pigs Hostel Berlin

Staying in a hostel needn't mean loud noises and sleepless nights. This fantastic historical building was previously a convent, and efforts have been made the preserve the tranquility left behind by the nuns. You'll love the airy rooms filled with natural light, and will also enjoy spending some time in the peaceful courtyard that many of the rooms surround.

Yet while the serenity of the convent has been preserved, this hostel is anything but old-fashioned. Each room has stylish interior design, together with all the essentials, and at this incredible location you're perfectly situated between all the must-sees of the day (including the Brandenburg Gate and Checkpoint Charlie) and all the excitement of the night, with Berlin's (in)famous Kreuzberg just down the road.

SANDEMANs tip: Check out the very moving exhibition at the ruins of the former train station over the road.
