Bottom Line

Located in Berlin’s diplomatic district, Das Stue is a boutique, luxury hotel with 79 chic rooms. From the elegant fine-dining restaurant to the cozy library, the hotel is immaculately decorated, offering the crème de la crème of hotel experiences. There is an indoor pool and a beautiful outdoor terrace. The location is a bit far from several of Berlin's tourist attractions, but there are some galleries, restaurants, and shops in the neighborhood. Guests looking for a more convenient location may want to check out Melia Berlin, a modern, upscale hotel near a transportation hub.

Oyster Hotel Review

SO/ Berlin Das Stue

Scene

Refined decor with unsuspected elements

Far from cookie-cutter, every corner of Das Stue hotel is a visual treat. The exterior, an old villa-style building, gives way to a lobby with stone stairways and a large crocodile head under a posh curtain of lights. The bar has quirky decor including a yellow giraffe made of wire, and mod yellow chairs to match. In the casual restaurant diners are surrounded by gray, blind-like walls letting natural light stream through; plush couches and fabric chairs kick the seating up a notch. In the fine-dining restaurant, a cluster of brass pots hangs from the center of the dining room ceiling, and there’s a cozy library on a landing decorated with rugs, couches, and a spotlight. There’s even a beautiful, outdoor terrace with potted plants, wooden floors, and vibrant, psychedelic-colored chairs. This hotel tends to draw design-savvy travelers who want a luxurious and stylish stay.

Location

Between Tiergarten Park and zoological gardens

The hotel is located between the Tiergarten Park and the zoological gardens in the diplomatic district of Berlin. The hotel isn’t close to most of Berlin’s tourist attractions; it’s a 10-minute drive to Museum Island and a 15-minute drive to the Berlin Wall Memorial. However, the immediate neighborhood offers a cluster of restaurants, bars, shops, and galleries -- including C/O Berlin and the Bauhaus Archive. The hotel is a 15-minute drive to Berlin Tegel Airport or a 30-minute commute via public transportation.

Rooms

Stylish, modern rooms with posh decor

Some suites have chic terraces with modern daybeds and seating areas, while the Stu Suite has a gorgeous free-standing bathtub wrapped in metal and a free, well-stocked mini-bar.
