EastSeven Hostel, Berlin

Everything!!! I loved the hostel, staff and fellow travelers. If you are a solo traveller this hostel is a best place to stay in Berlin

Very social hostel, went above and beyond to organise group activities. The outdoor section was really vibey and nice to hang in. The area was fantastic.

Honestly nothing major, maybe some curtains on beds for privacy but tbh the rooms themselves were spacious enough with good secure storage that it didnt really matter.

Everyone was cool I guess

No space in the fridge 🥲

I absolutely loved this hostel from the moment I entered until I left. I was greeted by smiling, friendly, genuine staff. Most of the team members are travellers/volunteers and know the importance of providing fellow travellers with good experiences. My room, 44, was great. The bathroom, kept immaculately clean, was immediately adjacent to my room and it almost felt as if it was ensuite. I enjoyed being able to listen to other hostel guests as they quietly socialized in the back garden. It felt really good when the team members I met and interacted with remembered my name. They provided good recommendations on where to eat and sights to visit. I'm in my 70s and appreciate quality and authenticity. East Seven has several plaques proudly proclaiming their status as The Best Hostel in Germany. Not at all an exaggeration. La creme de la creme. Had I not other cities and adventures in my itinerary, I would have gladly extended my 5 day stay in Berlin and at East Seven.

This is a great hostel for people looking to socialize and enjoy the club scene in Berlin. The staff members were super helpful during my stay and would host events every day, taking people to popular bars/beer gardens/flea markets, etc. around the city, and host indoor dinners. The hostel has a group chat for people to ask questions in, and staff members would post about events going on at clubs every night and give tips on things like dress code. There's also a closet with clothes and accessories you can rent for clubbing. There were a lot of other solo travelers/small groups in their 20s during my stay, and with the group chat and a few common areas in the hostel, it was easy to meet people to go out with. The facilities were also kept really clean. There's a few bathrooms on each floor with at least one or two showers/stalls in each, so even with quite a few people staying on each floor, I rarely needed to wait to use the bathroom.

The closest tram and subway stops (to most tourist attractions/areas at least) were around a 10-12 minute walk away. There was a subway stop 5 minutes away from the hostel, but the southbound train on that line didn't stop there, so you could only use that station if you were traveling north. The surrounding neighborhood is safe (and I'm not sure if that track was just closed temporarily due to construction), but it's something to keep in mind if you're looking for a place that's closer to public transportation. The luggage storage containers in the rooms are below the bunk beds and make some noise when being opened, so if you're planning to sleep early and are on the bottom bunk, you may get woken up when the person above you takes out their luggage. Additionally, the weather was scorching hot during my stay, but the hostel didn't have any AC or fans in the rooms. My room was on one of the upper floors and got super hot, to the point that it was hard to stay in it for more than a few minutes at a time during the day (even with the windows open). I would really recommend the hostel get some fans for the summer.

Everything! The location, the amazing staff, the facilities, the vibe!

It was perfect 😊

Truly the best hostel I've ever been to. I loved the friendly and special atmosphere and the social events they organize. Very very clean, comfortable, with new furniture and equipped with everything. Also well located and close to the underground. It exceeded my expectations! I really recommend you for solo travelling. You'll feel at home from the very first moment :) 🏠 🩷

Great vibe and friendly staff. There's a kitchen, huge living room with a couch and TV (with Netflix) and a large beer garden. Only about a 5-10min walk to the nearest underground.

Place had comfy beds and a nice outdoor garden area. The neighborhood was cute and the location has access to plenty of restaurants nearby. Very clean and well-maintained facilties.

The people from the hostel very friendly all. If you come alone you will meet nice people.

The best hostel I've stayed at. Staff are really friendly and personable and make an effort to remember your name and be very accommodating. The socials that they host every night are also a very nice touch and range from going to beer gardens to karaoke. I hope to be back very soon!

The whole vibe of the Hostel is just perfect. Everybody is friendly, happy, open-minded and social. The staff is very welcoming and makes sure everybody has a good stay.

The only problem with that hostel was that we couldn't stay longer :)

The facilies were great and staff super friendly. The hostel had evening activities every night, and the location was close to metro. Highly recommended!

Super well equipped and renovated, very helpful staff, very tidy for a hostel, has got the Berlin vibe, socially active with organised daily events while sleeping was not a problem

Loved the garden out the back! Perfect for a few drinks

Amazing facilities and atmosphere. Felt like a comunal home with wonderful people who quickly turned into friends.

This hostel was incredible! The staff were so warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere was wonderfully social. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the facilities were excellent. It’s the first hostel I’ve stayed at where I genuinely didn’t want to leave. If I’m ever back in Berlin, I’ll definitely return. As a solo female traveler, I felt completely safe and well looked after here.

Nothing!

The hostel was very clean and orderly. There were activities to do everyday with the hostel and it was pretty easy to meet other travelers. The staff was fun and friendly.

There wasn’t an elevator so taking the stairs was a bit tiring. People also were a bit loud outside in the evenings. There were more groups of travelers than solo travelers.

Friendly hosts, social and considerate atmosphere. Easily the best hostel I've stayed at as a lone traveller. Despite being a bit older than the average backpacker, I still felt welcomed and enjoyed the stay!

Nothing-faultless!

This hostel is the friendliest one I've ever stayed at! It's very warm, extremely clean, and totally safe. The staff are all attentive and caring—they take great care of everyone and always make this place feel like home. There are different activities every day, which help everyone get to know each other and have fun together. All in all, the atmosphere is fantastic! I really like this place and would love to come back one day.

Noting

The staff were so welcoming and accomodating. There was always support available when needed. The beds were comfortable, the atmosphere was very homey and social. The kitchen and common areas, as well as the outside area, were superb!

Nothing to say here :-)

Activities, events, facilities, other guests, staff

Clean, quiet | dorm beds include lockers | solid WiFi | hot shower | functional kitchen | light breakfast included, 6-10am (coffee/tea, cereal/milk) |

Loves the open atmosphere in the hostel. From the first second, I felt taken care of. Everyone were welcoming and between the guests. The personnel also arranged activities that helped build community and a feeling of connection

Everything was fine

Great location and friendly, helpful staff.

Noise.

Really friendly staff, great facilities and location, will definitely stay again.

Super friendly staff, social hostel with a lot of activities

Amazing hostel!! Super clean, great building, and nice location. It was a bit far from many attractions, but it was located in a nice neighborhood

Located in a quiet area and easy to get to the city centre area, staff were amazing and the facilities were great. They have social nights as well which is helpful and fun to meet people and explore Berlin. Supermarkets and cafes are close by. Hopefully will visit again!

Nothing！

Nice staff, clean rooms and beds, clean bathrooms, location is great. Cozy atmosphere and breakfast.

People outside the hostel at night smoking and during the summer if you sleeping close to open window you will smell it.

It was raining that day and they lent me an umbrella, very nice.

Price

Super friendly and helpful staff, great energy in the hostel, bedrooms and bathrooms are always clean, I would definitely stay here again

Pleasant staff, great location

The best option I could’ve chosen to stay in Berlin as a solo traveler. The hostel itself is very nice and clean in a very nice location (few minutes walk from the station) with lots of small cafes around and a nice garden in the back of the hostel. The staff is very friendly and helpful, the best people possible. They organize socializing events every single evening and give recommendations what to do and where to go every single night in whatsapp chat, so even if you’re solo you’ll never feel alone cause you always have somewhere to join. Even if you’re not into such stuff and just want to rest, it’s peaceful during the night in the hostel. My recommendation would be 10/10.

Clean, neat, respectful of others, good vibes from staff and guests. Very involving and they put you at ease.

Very friendly and social. Nice outdoor area

Not many ammenities in the beds like places to put stuff or curtains

The people were nice. The hostel created an extremely social atmosphere to meet new people! Everyone was so friendly!

Review for EastSeven Hostel Berlin – 5/5 ⭐️ I had the pleasure of staying at EastSeven Hostel Berlin for two nights, and it was a truly wonderful experience from start to finish. The atmosphere of the hostel strikes the perfect balance between cozy, clean, and welcoming. The staff were incredibly friendly, helpful, and always ready with great local recommendations, which made exploring Berlin even more enjoyable. My room was spotless, well-maintained, and very comfortable. I appreciated the little touches—whether it was the soft lighting, fresh linens, or the peaceful vibe that made it easy to relax after a full day in the city. The location is fantastic—tucked away in a quiet street but still very central. It's just a short walk to great cafes, restaurants, and public transport, making it super convenient for getting around Berlin. One of the highlights was the common area and garden. It’s such a chill, social space where you can meet fellow travelers or simply unwind with a book or a drink. The sense of community here is something special and rare. Overall, EastSeven exceeded my expectations. Whether you’re traveling solo, as a couple, or with friends, I can’t recommend it enough. I’ll definitely be staying here again next time I’m in Berlin!

One of the best hostels I’ve stayed in. Bathrooms, bedrooms, kitchen and common areas were always clean. A fun activity hosted by the hostel every night so it’s easy to meet people. Lots of people ready to party but the hostel does a good job of keeping quiet hours so people having a chill night can get some sleep. The courtyard is an awesome place to hang out, relax and chat with others. The hostel group chat makes it super easy to get recommendations and find others to go to the clubs with. Close to Mitte, grocery stores like Rewe, public transport etc

The hostel was so good and so fun that it has made the rest of my trip seem not as good.

There was a very nice outdoor space and fully equipped kitchen

Staff was very friendly and also Very good location! Very easy to get to on the underground from airport .

Rooms was on the small side but didn’t make any difference to me because I was out majority of the time :)

Alles war ja wirklich super! I liked it so much! Very clean! The people were nice and omg the terrace was heaven!

This was the best social hostel I’ve ever stayed at! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, and I had an amazing time there. Great atmosphere, perfect for meeting people.

It's conveniently located near the metro and easy to navigate.

The staff are excellent, and it's a great place to stay, especially for solo travelers.
