A small Prenzlauer Berg auberge tucked away in a utilitarian courtyard off busy Greifswaldstrasse, Hotel Greifswald is popular with musicians, dancers, and actors. Despite its artsy clientele and hip location (steps away from clubs, bars, and concert venues galore), this hotel doesn’t come with an attitude problem. Quite the opposite. Thanks to the gregarious owner, Alice van Alphen-Gebauer, and her engaging staff, guests “feel at home” in the hotel’s 32 rooms.

Each slightly-different room looks like a cozy guestroom in someone's house. All are outfitted with leather or wicker chairs, big closets, side tables, and a flat-screen TV. Velveteen bedspreads, framed prints, and small throw rugs add a touch of variety. The small, tidy bathrooms are splashed with blue. (You’ll have to ignore the green carpet throughout the hotel; it’s the only eyesore.)

Frau Alphen-Gebauer is particularly proud of her breakfast spread. Served in a small room plastered with signed photographs of her artsy guests, the buffet is downright decadent. (Did we hear mention of cake?) And as a gesture to her late-rising guests, the spread is served until noon.
