About

Intercityhotel Berlin Ostbahnhof

Intercityhotel Berlin Ostbahnhof sits directly at Ostbahnhof station in Berlin's Friedrichshain district, a 10-minute walk from Jannowitzbrücke tube station. The location is a practical choice for travellers arriving by rail or wanting quick connections across the city.

The hotel keeps things straightforward: a 24-hour reception, a snack and drink vending machine, and a lift. Rooms are soundproofed and allergy-free options are available. Guests consistently highlight the included public transport ticket, which covers Berlin and Potsdam, as a standout perk.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Unbeatable station access — The hotel sits right at Ostbahnhof, making arrivals and departures effortless. Guests repeatedly note the convenience, especially for those coming in by train or arriving after dark.
  • Free public transport pass — Every stay includes a pass for Berlin and Potsdam's public transport. Several guests call it the most useful perk, saving both money and the hassle of buying tickets.
  • Clean and quiet rooms — Soundproofed rooms and a calm atmosphere come up repeatedly. Guests describe the rooms as very clean and the hotel as a comfortable size, not too large.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Dining is functional, not a highlight — The restaurant and breakfast receive decent marks, but guests rarely rave about the food. The vending machines and packed lunches cover the basics, yet the experience is plain.
  • Price and service are average — While good value for the location, the hotel doesn't aim for premium. Service scores a middling 8, and guests note it's not luxurious—just reliable and clean.
  • Possible street noise — Despite soundproofed rooms, the hotel's position at a major transport hub could mean ambient noise for light sleepers, especially those facing the station.
