Where to stay in Hansaviertel
The practical side of choosing where to sleep.
Hansaviertel puts a small, green stretch of central Berlin within reach of the Großer Tiergarten. The setting is calm. This is a residential district set between the park and the Spree, thin on hotels, so most beds sit in the busier quarters of the Mitte borough around it.
If you want quiet nights by the Großer Tiergarten with the centre of Berlin at the door, over a room in the tourist core, and you do not need a hotel on the step, Hansaviertel can hold the stay.
