Great hostel for solo female travellers
The accommodation was really pleasant, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. I greatly enjoyed having all-girl rooms and bathrooms. There is a nice kitchen and a really nice backyard. There is almost an entire community in the hostel, since people and staff are really nice, and the general vibe was very pleasant. The value for money is insane. Just make sure to bring (or buy) your own padlock for your stuff.

The best hostel in Europe
I had a really great stay at EastSeven Hostel. The location is excellent and very convenient to move around Berlin. The atmosphere is amazing, with nice activities that make it easy to meet new people. The staff were very friendly, helpful, and welcoming. The guests were also respectful and social, which made the experience even better. I truly enjoyed my time there, and I would definitely come back to Berlin again because of this hostel. Highly recommended!

A clean, spacious, and well-run hostel that offers great value and a very comfortable atmosphere.
The hostel was very clean and the facilities were clearly well maintained. I especially appreciated the large common spaces, which made it easy to relax without feeling crowded. The free morning coffee with oats was a thoughtful touch and a great way to start the day. Overall, the place felt organized, comfortable, and welcoming.
Honestly, nothing stood out as a negative. Everything was well organized and met my expectations, making the stay smooth and hassle-free.

The kitchen has all the necessary appliances. The dorm was clean. The staff is very helpful and friendly. The tenants are also nice, there was no incidents during my stay so it's pretty safe.
Towels are for the extra fee.

Incredible and impressive hostel, would recommend to anyone looking to travel.
Location was incredible and very central. Staff were standout and extremely helpful and friendly. Coffee and other offerings were extremely considerate and added to overall value of the hostel.
Only thing I was an steamer or iron would be great onsite.

fond memory from my stay at this Berlin hostel: the staff gives you a warm welcome and shows you around the common areas of the property, anticipating any questions you might have. It was winter, so there were few guests, but they even escorted you to your room. They take a genuine interest in your stay and are happy to give you tips for sightseeing. The entire staff ensures that the place is kept clean, which is greatly appreciated.

Honestly, one of the best hostels in Berlin. The staff is amazing, super friendly, and always helpful. It’s always my first choice whenever I’m in Berlin. The hostel is very clean and well maintained, and it’s also a great place to socialize and meet new people to hang out with. The location is perfect, surrounded by supermarkets, bars, cafés, and restaurants, so everything you need is just a few steps away.

Worth money and cozy place
Location is great, 2min walk to the metro station. Bed is clean and comfy and bathroom is nearby. Free water and free coffee, there are lots of facilities.
The sink could be equipped with hand dryer or paper towels to dry hands and sometimes the sink / mirror area can get crowded when girls are there to do the make-ups.

Great place to stay with everything you need...
Reasonably close to Berlin HBF (takes 20 minutes on the 12 tram from the hbf) and close to a Lidl grocery store (5-10 minutes on foot). What stands out the most at this hostel are the very friendly staff/volunteers who organize different events for the hostel guests which definitely was a plus in being able to socialize with many different people at the hostel and to experience group activities. Hot running water and private shower room at either end of the hallways on each floor. Hair dryers at each bathroom was honestly so appreciated. The bunk beds were very comfortable and much sturdier than some other ones I've previously experienced. Kitchen area with a fridge available for use. Luggage storage room to hold your luggage after checking out was super great.
The shower and bathrooms could be cleaner. Towels are not free and only available for rent for 2 euros. I wish there were some additional chairs in the room for sitting in.

Comfy, clean, and friendly
It was clean, the mattress was comfortable and the bedding seemed new. No bed bugs. There are chargers next to the bed on a little shelf. Besides people leaving in the morning, it was not noisy. I stayed in the female-room. The staff were persistently friendly, which was nice and made the stay more human. It was colourful and not depressing, nor dirty, like some hostels. The price was great, I would return there. They also had a water fountain and free tea/coffee. WIFI works.
The one annoying thing is that the bathrooms have no paper towel, nor a hand dryer, I did expect that I needed to bring a hand towel.

This is a great party hostel / social hostel.

Made my first visit to Berlin even better!
Loved my stay here - this was my first time visiting Berlin and East Seven really felt like a little home away from home. I stayed here for 8 days (with a split in the middle as they don't allow long stays) and I'd absolutely come back - there's so much opportunity to socialise but also to just chill out if that's what you prefer. The staff are all super approachable and go out of their way to host social events almost every evening. The dorms were comfortable and clean - really nothing to complain about for the price! Location is also nice, you do have to travel to get to the city centre, but there's plenty food and shopping options a short walk away as well. Lidl and Rewe are both really close by and the hostel kitchen is perfect for making a meal and storing food. Overall just a really great little hostel!

The staff was friendly, although not all the volunteers even said hello. But the staff and volunteers helped when I needed help. At first I felt bad when I asked for help, but in the end it was good.
Curtains on the bed would have been lovely. I couldn't find all my food in the fridge, what was put in there.

Great stay in Berlin
The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was super nice and friendly! I loved the organized activities every evening to meet new friends and have fun! Also the position is great, just 10 minutes walk from Mitte.
Some guests were not really respectful of common spaces such as bathrooms, leaving them not clean as they found, but it doesn't depend on the staff.

This hostel is definitely worth the money. First of all it has a great location, close to the metro station and only a 15-minute walk to Alexanderplatz. It’s equipped with all the necessary facilities and anything a guest might need. The room was cleaned every day and the staff were super friendly and helpful. I will definitely stay here again on my next trip.
The Wi-Fi connection quality could be improved, but overall it was still good.
