Ackselhaus & Blue Home

Great city hotels are often located in the trendiest, liveliest areas of town and yet remain a total oasis of peace. The Ackselhaus stylish self-catering apartments are a case in point. The location here happens to be the renowned Prenzlauer Berg, an atmospheric district bustling with cafes, bars and restaurants and only a couple of stops from AlexandrePlatz. The late 19th century Ackselhaus is bang in the middle of it, yet it is magically peaceful inside – no noise and an ambience of relaxation

In one sense, however, the dynamism of the area certainly rubs off on the Ackselhaus, It may be a turn of the century townhouse with a facade to match but it has been totally renovated and extended with a new wing to provide 35 rooms, suites and studios (partly with their own kitchenettes). Wooden parquet floors, high ceilings and antique period pieces go hand in hand with modern furnishings.

Essentially, every single accommodation is unique and the variety of decoration takes in modern, classical, oriental and chic. But there is a common denominator of excellent, classy taste throughout. Further areas for contemplation take in the lovely Mediterranean type back garden complete with its own fountain, no less. But Berlin is made for discovery and the unique attributes of the Ackselhaus, make it an excellent base from which to discover this exciting city.

In effect you get the best of both worlds in terms of location and peace.
