I was in a little cell-like single room on the top-floor. While it could have done with a touch up to the paintwork - but otherwise I felt very comfy there (plenty of hot water, comfy bed and working heating) - the hostel was a very lively and welcoming place for a female traveller on her own. I've stayed in nicer rooms for this price in other cities - but the location and welcoming staff and other travellers make St Christophers a good bet.

the environment was awesome. I did not like the fact that a staff memeber booked a room i did not want to and then i was unable to change it without paying the fee. also, there was a rude bartender, with a hat. on the other hand, the rest of the staff was nice. thanks and keep it running!

Hello Santiago, what was the Problem with the Dorms you booked? I can see that you moved around a bit - but never separated from your friend - which is important to most groups! If there are more Details, please get back to us any time - also about the Bartenders Behaviour! Was there a special Situation? Then please contact us and we will forward your Complaint to the responsible Department! Santiago, we hope you still could enjoy Berlin and the Hostel and had a good Time in the End! Thank you very much for this Review and your Feedback. It means a lot and is important for us to improve our Services! Kind Regards, the Berlin St. CHristophers Team!

Good hostel, but the reception area is part of a bar, so when it is busy you have to wait for ages, and you feel as if you are hassling the staff. No wifi in rooms which is terrible. Good thing is you get a 25% discount on food in the bar if you stay there. Burgers are great!

Really fun place to stay, excellent bar always busy. Comfortable, spacey bunks. Location was good to get around too. Would be happy to stay here again in Berlin

Great location, good staff, dorm beds are comfy enough and have curtain for privacy. Not truly a party hostel as advertised though since you are only meant 1 person per bed and Budapest/Prague hostels had proper hostel organised events. Breakfast was decent and while no private bathrooms the shower/toilet facilities were pretty good. Overall for the price it was a good investment

Everything is fine and comfortable. It would be better to have a kitchen, but for such price you can't complain about this!

We had a great time at this hostel and we really recommend it, It's really close to the center and in the same time cheap. But i wanna tell to the reception can the guy with beard be more hospitable? Thanks for everything!

I honestly enjoyed my stay at hostel, yet I must say that female part of staff was much more friendly and helpful, then the male part. Kitchen was good, prices we ok, rooms were nice and clean. I would reccomend this to anyone.

Very friendy, helpful, knowledgeable staff. Food very good though the chef sometimes is heavy-handed with the salt on the French fries. Good value for money

Dear Jean Paul, that is very upsetting! Especially as Security is one of our Main Interests: in all Hallways and Common Room Areas we have Security Cameras (CCTV) installed and in all Dorms we have Security Lockers for your use. In the Bar you find even more Safes for Storage. It´s of course disappointing if you have the Feeling the Staff is not able to handle the Situation. Your Complaint will be therefore discussed within the Team! If there is anything you like to tell us please get back to us any time! Thank you very much for your Feedback! Kind Regards from the Berlin Team!

I was truly impressed with the hostel. The atmosphere and the location was one of a kind. I really had a wonderful time especially talking to the staff who are very kind and helpful especially the blond recepcionist . I remember bothering him with a hundred questions about directions etc and he kindly answered all of them. I strongly recommend the place, it will live up to your expectations.

This place has a great bar, and very good and cheap food. The location is a few minutes walking to alexanderplatz. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The toilets and showers are always clean and in perfect working condition. This is a great place to party or rest without trouble. I recommend it.

Dear Dave, thanks for your Feedback and your kind Words - they mean a lot :) We don´t have a Guest Kitchen, that´s right. The Concept of St. Christophers is to come with a Pub/Restaurant and cheap Prices. All our Guests even get 25% off the Food! I hope you could enjoy those Deals ;) Have a great Day! Kind Regards from the Berlin St. Christophes Team!
