These fully furnished apartments dotted around Mitte are the ideal alternative for families or couples hoping to recreate their home in an entirely new city. Compared with a hotel, the prices are impossible to beat, and there is the added bonus of being able to have breakfast without the indignity of spluttering out of the shower at 8:55am and bombing down the stairs to claim your share of a giant bowl of soggy cornflakes and some watered down grapefruit juice.

Berlinapartments even offers hotel-style services like clean bed linen and towels.
