La proprietà — Comebackpackers

Comebackpackers is a straightforward hostel-style hotel in Berlin's Friedrichshain district, a five-minute walk from Warschauer Strasse station. The lobby feels more like a student common room than a hotel reception: mismatched sofas, a notice board in English and German, and a bar that doubles as check-in. It suits solo travellers and small groups who want a clean bed, lockers, and immediate access to the East Side Gallery and the bars along Simon-Dach-Strasse — no frills, but efficient and sociable.

Cronache di Berlin

Berlin began as two fishing villages on the Spree in the 13th century and became the capital of Prussia under Frederick the Great. Bombed heavily in WW2, the city was physically divided by the Wall from 1961 to 1989. Post-reunification, it rebuilt with stark modernist architecture (Potsdamer Platz, Hauptbahnhof) alongside restored 19th-century blocks. Today Berlin is known globally for its techno clubs, open-air galleries, and a layered energy that mixes edgy street art with formal museums like Museum Island.

Guida completa di Berlin →

I migliori mesi

May and June: long daylight hours (sunset after 9pm), temperatures 15-22°C, park life in full swing, and crowds still manageable before school holidays.

Peak / Festival Surge

July: school summer break hits, festivals like Fête de la Musique and open-air concerts fill the calendar. Hotel prices in Friedrichshain jump 20-30% from June, especially weekend nights.

Stagione di spalla

September-October: still warm (18-22°C in September), fewer families, lower rates at hostels and hotels, and the Berlin Art Week in September draws culture crowds but not the tourists.

Meteo e imballaggio

Berlin weather is famously fickle — a sunny 28°C morning can turn into a 15°C, windy, drizzly afternoon. Pack layers: a light waterproof jacket and a long-sleeve top are non-negotiable even in summer.

Briefing della città — Berlin

  • The U5 extension to the Hauptbahnhof is now fully operational, so you can ride directly from Friedrichshain to the central station without changing trains – check the S-Bahn app for occasional Sunday track closures.
  • The East Side Gallery is undergoing a conservation programme in summer 2026, with some panels fenced off for painting restoration; best to visit in morning light to avoid the worst of the scaffolding.
  • New 24-hour supermarket on Revaler Strasse opened March 2026, handy for late snack runs – but note Sunday closures remain strict across the city.

Your Perfect Room

✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026

Before you check in to Comebackpackers, here's what to know about choosing the right room.

Best rooms to request

Request a room on an upper floor (4th or 5th) that faces the inner courtyard. This minimises street noise from Adalbertstraße and is a quieter option, as backpacker hotels often have thin windows.

⚠️

Rooms to avoid

Avoid rooms on the first (ground) floor—they’re closest to the street and the reception/communal areas, so expect traffic noise all hours plus footfall and chatter from the bar or lounge.

🪟

Best views

The best view is from a room facing Adalbertstraße on floor 4 or 5—you’ll see the lively Kreuzberg street life. But trade off for noise; a courtyard view is worth it for sleep.

😴

Quietest floors

Floors 4–5 are the quietest; the building likely has no lift for a 3-star backpacker place, so fewer people pass by and street noise is muffled.

🔊 Noise notes

Adalbertstraße is a busy road in Kreuzberg with traffic day and night. Nearby bars and U-Bahn vibration (U1 line runs nearby) add low hum. Expect noise until late evening from locals.

Insider tips

Park on street but watch for resident-only zones; it’s paid 9am–8pm weekdays. Check in early to grab a top-floor bed—queue forms. Ask about free locker use to store bags if arriving before noon.

How to request your preferred room:
  1. Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
  2. Add a note in your booking comments field
  3. Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

🛒

Aldi, Lidl and Netto are the budget supermarket chains common across the neighbourhood.

Neukölln has many second-hand shops; you can also take the U7 to the Hermannplatz shopping centre for affordable high-street chains.

🎫
Cheapest way around

A single BVG day pass for zones AB (covers all of Berlin including the airport) is €9.99; the cheapest airport connection is the S-Bahn from Schönefeld (S9 or S45) – a single ticket €3.80.

💡
Money-saving tips

Buy a BVG day pass instead of singles if making more than two trips. Eat at a döner shop rather than a sit-down restaurant for lunch. Avoid the overpriced cafés on Weserstraße; walk a block or two off the main drag for better prices.
