About This Guide

The view from above changes everything. Berlin's best rooftop hotels don't just offer a room with a view — they offer entire elevated experiences. Rooftop bars where the city's skyline becomes your backdrop, infinity pools that seem to merge with the horizon, and open-air restaurants where every table has a panorama. Hotel de Rome boasts what many consider the finest rooftop panorama in Berlin, with 360-degree views and a cocktail programme curated by an award-winning mixologist. Regent Berlin features a stunning infinity pool that's become one of the most photographed hotel features in the city. We've evaluated not just the views but the complete rooftop experience — quality of food and drinks, atmosphere, seating comfort, and whether the space feels genuinely special or merely elevated.

Insider Tips

  • 1

    Time your rooftop visit for golden hour — typically 1-2 hours before sunset.

  • 2

    Make dinner reservations for rooftop restaurants well in advance, especially on weekends.

  • 3

    Pack a light layer — rooftop temperatures can drop significantly after sunset.

  • 4

    Request a west-facing room for in-room sunset views as well.

Best Hotels with Rooftop Bars & Pools in Berlin (2026)

6 hotels · Updated February 2026

Hotel de Rome — Mitte — Bebelplatz
$$$$ Ultra-luxury
★ 9.1 Superb

Mitte — Bebelplatz

Hotel de Rome

Hotel de Rome occupies the 1889 Dresdner Bank headquarters on Bebelplatz, a magnificently restored building with an original bank vault converted into a spa pool. The 145 rooms are classically elegant, and the rooftop terrace offers some of central Berlin's best views across the Gendarmenmarkt and Museumsinsel. A Rocco Forte property executed with the brand's characteristic restraint and quality.

Regent Berlin — Mitte — Gendarmenmarkt
$$$$ Ultra-luxury
★ 9.2 Superb

Mitte — Gendarmenmarkt

Regent Berlin

The Regent Berlin faces the Gendarmenmarkt — arguably Europe's most beautiful baroque square — and delivers classical luxury in a 195-room property with a notably calm atmosphere. The Charlotte & Fritz restaurant is one of Mitte's better hotel dining rooms, and the location gives immediate access to Berlin's finest arts and cultural institutions. The quieter, more refined alternative to the Adlon.

Hotel Adlon Kempinski Berlin — Mitte — Brandenburg Gate
$$$$ Ultra-luxury
★ 9.3 Superb

Mitte — Brandenburg Gate

Hotel Adlon Kempinski Berlin

The Adlon is Berlin's most storied address — rebuilt in 1997 on the site of the legendary 1907 original, facing the Brandenburg Gate at the end of Unter den Linden. The 307 rooms and suites are classically grand; the Lorenz Adlon Esszimmer holds two Michelin stars; the lobby fountain and bear bas-relief are Berlin landmarks in their own right. For understanding Berlin's weight as a city, there is no more instructive place to stay.

Orania.Berlin — Kreuzberg
$$$ Upscale
★ 9.2 Superb

Kreuzberg

Orania.Berlin

Orania.Berlin is one of Germany's best boutique hotels — a 41-room property in a Wilhelmine building on Oranienstrasse in Kreuzberg, combining a genuinely excellent restaurant with one of Berlin's best jazz programmes. The design mixes Bauhaus and art deco influences with Berlin's characteristic directness. The neighbourhood is authentically Kreuzberg: multicultural, independent, and utterly unlike Mitte.

SO/ Berlin Das Stue — Tiergarten
$$$ Upscale
★ 9.3 Superb

Das Stue occupies a 1930s former Danish Embassy building in the Tiergarten, its 78 rooms designed by Spanish designer Patricia Urquiola in a style that's contemporary, warm, and genuinely singular. The hotel backs onto the Berlin Zoological Garden; the Cinco restaurant holds a Michelin star for Sebastian Frank's Austrian-inflected cooking. One of Berlin's most quietly brilliant hotels.

Provocateur Berlin — Charlottenburg
$$$ Upscale
★ 8.9 Excellent

Charlottenburg

Provocateur Berlin

Provocateur is an adults-only boutique hotel in Charlottenburg with an unashamedly cinematic, 1970s-glamour design aesthetic. The 57 rooms lean into velvet, brass, and bold colour with conviction; the bar is one of west Berlin's better cocktail destinations. Charlottenburg's Kurfürstendamm shopping and the Käthe-Kollwitz-Museum are walkable. A confident, slightly theatrical alternative to the standard luxury market.
