Sunflower Hostel

Location is unmatched but that seems to be a double edged sword. The vibe in the hostel itself was completely dead this weekend; extremely hard to get groups together and I barely ever saw more than a couple of singles on their laptops or already-friends getting some drinks before leaving. Some things to improve: - cold showers, not pleasant - windows let way too much cold in - no coat hangers in the room - no curtain for beds - cashless limit at bar too high - no hostel WhatsApp

The bathrooms are absolutely disgusting — they go weeks without proper cleaning, and even when they finally bother, the result is still revolting and filthy. The music in the bar is so loud the guests can hear it in the room and i could not sleep The rooms are infested with lice, and the so-called "cleaners" can't even be bothered to take out the garbage for days, leaving everything rotting and stinking. The beds are unstable and make annoying loud squeaky sounds. The two receptionists are openly angry and rude: the one with the hand tattoo and glasses, and the other one with that mullet hairstyle— both treat guests like dirt with zero professionalism. it's one of the worst hostels I've experienced in over 30 countries and hundreds of hostels worldwide. I'm an experienced world traveler who's met thousands of people, and I've always been respectful and made others feel comfortable — but this place made even basic comfort impossible. On the floor I was on, there were 10 rooms crammed together sharing just 2 toilets (with attached showers). That's ridiculous for the number of guests — peak times meant constant long waits, sometimes 10-15+ minutes just to use the bathroom. When you finally get in, the showers have no doors at all — just open or minimal curtain setups where anyone walking by in the corridor or nearby can see straight in. Zero privacy, super awkward and uncomfortable, The reception staff shows complete disrespect toward guests, behaving in an arrogant, rude, and downright nasty manner.

Gute Lage und schöner Aufenthaltsbereich, es waren einige Gruppen da, man kommt aber ins Gespräch. Die Gemeinschaftsbäder waren soweit in Ordnung. Im 1OG war es etwas neuer als unten und es gab manchmal kein Toilettenpapier. Aber die Duschen sind einzeln abschließbar mit genug Platz. Das hat gut geklappt. Im Zimmer hat es etwas gezogen, aber die Heizung wurde dann auf Nachfrage etwas hochgestellt an der Rezeption. Alles super. Komme gerne wieder.

Amazing place to stay ?? Workers are very friendly, helped w everything and capsule was clean and cozy. Less than 20€ for night is very great price also for this location. Have this place saved for future trips in Berlin

Alles super, vorallem die anderen Gäste und das Personal auch. Lage ebenfalls für mich zumindest top! Lieb die Umgebung und vom Bahnhof Warschauer Strasse ist man auch so ziemlich überall in

Best hostel, chill vibe, awesome stuff, great people!!!!

Awesome! People were super friendly and chill, grest bar prices and overall super vibe. Beds were comfortable and really close to club center of Berlin!

Great location for sightseeing and clubbing too near Eastside gallery and walking distance of a bunch of clubs. Staff were friendly, atmosphere was great in the social area easy to have a beer and meet people. Rooms were good slept well generally

Staff is very arrogant, no proper guidance even he don’t told me about location of room he just said your room number is 001, Not proper guidance even. In the shower room there was no shampoo, body wash, and hair brush. Stay away from sunflower.

gerne noch einmal

best hostel ever

I enjoyed the stay. But they should atleast provide sandals in the private room for using in the bathroom.

I was in Berghain last weekend and it was top. Spent 4 nights in this hostel and I loved it. My roommates were all very nice people. The rooms i stayed in, 313 and 333 were nice and clean. The breakfast wonderful. The best part of this hostel is the staff. They were all very welcoming, very accommodating. Top people. I will come back for my next Berghain experience in May. See you soon, guys!

I’m a female solo traveler and I can only recommend this place, everything was perfect, the location, the people, an address to save!

My experience in this hostel was as a solo traveler, and I felt like it was quite hard to meet people at this hostel. The common area and bar had lots of people but felt a bit intimidating. Other than that I loved my stay, it was great, location is incredible, and the facilities are good. I would stay again

mi sono trovata a mio agio posizione molto comoda e strategica anche la zona servitissima qualità prezzo eccellente consigliato

Tutto alla perfezione! L' Ostello sunflower è un posto dotato di una atmosfera unica,dove è veramente facile incontrare gente,la struttura è ubicata in una zona carina di Berlino e non lontana dal centro. La struttura è anche molto accogliente e pulita,la colazione aggiuntiva è buonissima e il personale è molto amichevole, disponibile e simpatico! Lo raccomando Totalmente e sicuramente ci tornerò!

superb hostel - amazing vibes always, staff are super friendly - not one bad comment about here ????

Insgesamt ganz gut. Leute waren nett. Sind logischerweise auch viele zum raven dort. Viele Clubs und vegane Restaurants in der Nähe. Die Bäder waren leider ziemlich schmutzig. Die haben eine ordentliche Reinigung nötig.

I book one night. the location is nice, room was nice, the man at reception was nice..

Cool hostel very near to city center, by bus or Underground. Beds are comfy, polite & friendly receptionists, a small dinner area at ground floor, flexible check-in out, clean rooms. Prices are wow for a small tour in Berlin. Definetly one of the best options to choose. Bonus- close to world famous Berghain club; if you have the chance to get in

Full of absolute beauts

Love ????

too petty

Nice atmosphere and hostel vibe.

love the vibe of the common room and the quality and cleanliness of the rooms and bathroom. the lady who checked me out was really sweet, and so was the guy who handled an issue I had with some girls in my room, instantly moving me to another room. so overall very nice, just was expecting a bit more of a social vibe, but I guess it’s december so I’ll give it another try in the summer!

The staff are 10/10 super friendly, generous and helpful. Our biggest issue in our stay was, the room smelled really bad and it was freezing all the time…my friend and I used our jackets as well at night as extra blankets. Other than that the hostel is nice and the location depends on what you’re planning to do in Berlin is good!

It was a good place to sleep, but I didn't feel the young atmosfere.

L’emplacement de l’hôtel est très loin par rapport à la gare routière. Certaines personnes du personnel sont mal polies, mais le reste est magnifique, pour dire toute la vérité. J’ai réservé un jour de plus la veille, mais le lendemain, j’étais obligé de récupérer mes bagages à 10h00 et de rentrer dans la chambre à 15h00. Pas de cuisine, pas de plaque chauffante, pas de réfrigérateur. »

Highly recommend this hostel. Very lively and easy to meet people. The bar is so convenient and beer is cheap. Location is 8 min walking from metro/train station so easy to get around. If you’re here for clubbing, Berghain is 200m away! Katerblau, trésor are also close-by. The rooms are fine and the pillow is very confortable. Only downside I would say is the bathrooms and showers need renovation. Shoutout to Oleg for being so kind

Amazing staff! and location! Tasty Breakfast!

Excellent, J'ai beaucoup voyagé et c'est le meilleur hostel ou j'ai été.

Interesting hostel! Location is great if you want to see OstBF or do BH. Beds good and showers exceptional!

ottimo ostello, ci tornerò!

Staff is incredible, special shoutout to Marianthi who was so lovely. The team clearly cares about creating a welcoming atmosphere and environment for the guests. Whenever I need a hostel in Berlin, Sunflower will always be my first choice. Thanks again to the staff

Everything perfect, puercodios.

There is only one bathroom per corridor of rooms, so if someone is showering you cannot even go to the toilet. Also just wasnt very clean, we got bed linens that were covered in blood!

The showers and bathrooms are detached and dirty. The beds are loud but they provide towels. You have to put sheets on yourself. It’s a 10 min walk from the nearest S-bahn and not in the most central location.

das Bad könnte auf jeden Fall mal eine ordentliche Säuberung vertragen, aber man konnte nich duschen gehen (Badeschlappen sind der Key). ich mag es nicht wenn dran steht das spinte da sind aber man das Schloss selber mitnehmen muss.

Beds were so loud woke up like 5 times every night otherwise pretty good place, good location and chill staff

Great! Good vibe. I liked it a lot. Staff is friendly, they let me cook my left over after my check out (after some security questions of course). I recommend

Einfaches, aber sehr schönes Appartement. Die Küche ist spärlich, aber ausreichend ausgestattet. Würde ich für Tripps mit Freunden weiterempfehlen.

Good vibes in this hostel. Close to lots of public transport including Ostbahnhof. At the edge of lots of shops, cafes, and bars in Friedrichshain. Staff were friendly. Have to make your own beds but they were very comfy.

Amazing hostel. Super quirky and cool benefit to be so close to Berghain. Some staff were quite rude. I asked for ice a few times for our water and juice while we had dinner. And the third time we asked, we were rudely told to tip them which is strange as it is just ice and it wasn’t super busy or anything.

All the staff were lovely and nice except for one guy with glasses and a sleeve tattoo, he made me and my friend feel like a burden to be there, he seemed short with us because he just wanted to talk to his friends and not have to do his job. He also spoke about me about my purchase choice in front of me in German to his friend, which my friend heard and is German so she told me, not what I’m expecting from a hostel. Apart from this guy, the staff was lovely and is a great value for money there.

i just stayed for 2 nights and can't complain about anything! staff was fab, shower hot and room clean! lockers to secure your stuff, girls dorm super spacious and berghain around the corner! will come back (: bis zum nächsten mal!

Amazing time. Will be back!

Schoon, lekkere bedden, lief personeel, goede drankprijzen en top locatie/

I found the location empty and boring. The kitchen was dirty, and even the kettle to boil water was nasty. The room was several floors up (some of the floors had dirty clothes laying in the stairs) with no elevator, and there are several doors to get there. In the morning I was going to the kitchen from the room and my card stopped working and I was locked out! I could not get back into the room and not the reception. This was long time before checkout. Luckily I had my phone with me, if not I have no idea how long I would have had to wait, since there were no one in my room at the time. I stayed in the female dorm. There is only one bathroom in the entire floor, so I someone is showering there, there is no way to go to the toilet on the entire floor. The windows let so much light in during the night because of the curtains not covering the windows efficiently. You have to do the linens on your bed and pay 6 euros for deposit for it, but the worst thing is that people start taking the bed linens on the bed or remove them in the middle of the night, because of this, two people did this after I went to bed and FOUR people before I was supposed to wake up. The air was stuffy and every time someone woke me up it took me hours to fall back asleep. The bed makes a lot of noise when someone is on the top bunk. I found a couple of the receptionists unhelpful and unfriendly, but a couple was nice. I was ignored for a long time when I was trying to order from the bar. There is no free luggage storage. I think this is fine if you are partying a lot and too drunk to care about comfort or noise. Or if you are taking a train in the middle of the night and don't care about waking up everyone else and doing the bed linens in the middle of the night. For me, I have learned not to book hostels with reception open all night. Coffee in the morning costs money. I would not stay here again. Edit after response: Thank you for understanding :) I am a frequent dorm sleeper, so not a noob, so I know what is normal.
