This is a playful and very Insta-worthy place! More of a tropical retreat than a typical hotel, it combined a playful urban jungle theme with industrial chic decor, featuring floor-to-ceiling windows, cozy hammocks, vibrant murals, natural wood accents, and lush greenery throughout! I loved its fun, eclectic vibe, which felt immersive and all-encompassing!

My guest room (named a ‘Large Jungle’) was a funky place adorned with natural wood, trendy decor, an extra large double bed, floor-to-ceiling windows and a super cute hammock (this was my favourite feature)!

I also discovered a funky rooftop restaurant – which offered breathtaking 360-degree views of the city – a wood-fire bakery, a buzzy onsite bar, complimentary hire of mini cars and bicycles, ‘Bikini Island’ which was a dynamic communal space located on the third floor (which also had a DJ-corner) and even an Airstream van serving up tasty street food! 

The location in the vibrant Charlottenburg district was fantastic – right near the famous Kurfürstendamm shopping street and with easy access to public transport links that made exploring the rest of the city a breeze!

My favourite highlights… 

  • Dining in their onsite Neni Restaurant which was located on the 10th floor – I loved the incredible city views, the menu inspired from flavours all over the world, the Instagrammable design and my exotic dishes of curry mango hummus and Baba Ghanoush which came with a unique sourdough crumble!
