This is one of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed in! The beds are super comfortable, the price is fair, and every single space in the hostel is impeccably clean. There’s a beautiful backyard with cozy sofas, hammocks, and a sound system where you can choose your own music—perfect for relaxing and socializing. The layout is very integrated—kitchen, reception, living room, and common areas flow seamlessly into each other, making it incredibly easy to interact with other guests. Every corner of the hostel feels welcoming and cozy. Honestly, you don’t even need to go to bars or restaurants in Berlin because the hostel’s spaces are so enjoyable. But the real highlight is the volunteers. Georgia and another Australian volunteer whose name I can’t remember were outstanding. They’re always cheerful, attentive, smiling, and ready to help. In fact, every single volunteer at the reception greets you with a smile and an enthusiastic “hello,” which makes such a difference when you’re far from home. Congratulations to the team! You’ve created such a human and heartwarming atmosphere. Thank you for making this such an unforgettable experience!

One of the best hostels I have stayed in. The location is amazing, it's not dirty at all, the staff offer different activities every day to meet other people in the hostel which is really nice. The lockers are very useful for storing luggage on arrival and departure days. Finally, the staff are very friendly and helpful. I can only recommend this hostel and it will definitely be my first choice when I come back to Berlin :)

My best hostel experience so far! I booked one month in advance & requested a bottom bunk bed by the window. My wishes were heard, and the accommodation was really neat and tidy. Bunk beds (in the room of four) offer enough privacy and comfort for rest. Similarly, public rooms downstairs offer social and culinary events in the morning like a free breakfast and sometimes in the evening, meaning that you'd always have someone for a nice convo. Coming back in summer for sure!

My first hostel experience and it was amazing!! The staff were so friendly and gave me such detailed information including their tour and all the helpful signage throughout the building. The rooms were so clean and well kept. Same with the shared bathrooms. There is so much communal space. Loved the free breakfast and coffee to start my day. Location is close to so many train stations and is in a cool neighborhood, right outside of the downtown area. Also so many cool coffee shops and stores nearby.

I just spent a few day's in East Seven Hostel. It is a super Hostel. I had a double room which was bright, spacious, and had a comfy bed. Bathrooms have showers with really good pressure!.  The Hostel itself is very clean throughout with the bonus of a lovely outside area. Great bubbly staff on the front desk, really nice coffee shops, eateries, supermarkets, and pharmacies just minutes from your doorstep. Alexanderplatz is only a 20 minute walk.. 5* Stars! Hope to come back soon!

I had an amazing stay at East Seven Hostel and can't recommend it enough! Great location—it's in a safe, quiet area yet close to public transport, so getting around the city was a easy. The hostel itself is incredibly clean. The rooms are well-maintained, I stayed in a 4 bed and it had comfortable beds and plenty of space. The whole place was clean, from the dorms to the common areas. There are also tons of showers available, so you never have to wait for one. One of the best parts of my stay was how social the hostel is. It’s a great place to meet other travelers. There’s a really relaxed vibe, and the common areas are perfect for hanging out and chatting. They also organize events, which makes it easy to get involved and meet people. The staff and volunteers at East Seven are exceptional. They go above and beyond to make you feel at home. They’re super friendly, always ready to offer advice, and genuinely care about making your stay as enjoyable as possible. It’s clear that they love what they do, and their positive energy really adds to the atmosphere. Overall, my experience at East Seven was fantastic. Its one of the best hostels I’ve stayed in. Edit - PS, the staff are a big fan of chocolate, and luckily there's a Lidl practically next door.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at east seven Berlin. It is a very welcoming hostel, very social and staff are quite attentive. Reception stated they were 24/7 but sometimes found ourselves coming home late and no staff at front desk. Despite this, we were very pleased with the cleanliness of the rooms and the bathrooms. Location is decent, near the train station and some good restaurants and bars. It is a bit further from all the main attractions, but these however can easily be accessed by bus, train and tram!

Great and safe location, absolutely social and friendly staff, kitchen was always clean but toilet could clean more often, 24 hr reception is great and guests in hostel was also friendly and no creeps as well. I would stay here again. Price and performance ✅️

Amazing hostel!! Staff is extremely friendly and helpful, shared kitchen is clean, tons of social spaces as well. They also set up fun events for you to meet people! Staff accidentally placed a man in my all female dorm, but fixed it as soon as we brought it to their attention. Met the best people here and had so much fun - definitely staying here if I'm ever back.

Clean, safe, quiet and with reliable wifi along with extremely helpful English speaking staff, EastSeven lived up to it's HostelWorld rating. I ended up picking EastSeven after significant deliberation over nearby hostels (skipped due to availability and lack of a communal kitchen) and I was pleasantly surprised. Booked a room with two beds, expecting very uncomfortable twin beds, but was placed in a nice spacious room with one comfortable double bed and a twin stacked on top of another twin (perhaps to arrange the room into a 3-bed accommodation). Perks of the place: walking distance from Senefelderplatz, a corner store with alcohol and snacks, beer available for 1.5-2 euros, clean linens, clean bathrooms, and cute garden area with two hammocks for napping. Downsides: no elevator and reception/front desk ends around midnight. This place is definitely not a party hostel, but more so a nice quiet place to rest if you're on your long-winded Euro-trip. Early check-out is a breeze, just make sure you go over it with the staff at least 24 hours prior to your expected check-out.

After great reviews by lonely planet and hostelworld, decided to stay here. What i liked -as solo traveller there are lots of opportunities to meet other travellers. Especially the daily cooking is great initiative -very clean -nice location The only reason it is not 5stars, is that they dont seem to have a female dorm.

A friend and I stayed in the hostel during the busy week of spring break, and yet we found the hostel to be extremely clean and safe. The staff is very friendly, accommodating and professional. The location of the hostel is next to a metro station and walking distance from mitte. Plus the hostel offers day tours, pub crawls, and happy hour beers for 1.5 € (: I would definitely recommend this place to friends and family. Brief story, we accidentally checked out a day early believing that our flight was Saturday, when in reality it was on Sunday -.- anywho after returning from the airport and feeling extremely silly, the front desk, Max and Roman, informed us that they had booked our rooms, seeming as we had checked out and they stated that the entire hostel was booked out. However, because the staff is awesome and perfect they offered us one of their employee rooms. Like who does that? The best employees of eastseven, that's who! Shout out and thanks for good vibes and a great stay!

Best hostel hands down. This was the first hostel I stayed at on my 5-week solo trip and it set the standards pretty high. I met amazing people and had a blast. I definitely recommend this hostel to anyone looking for lodging in the area!

Stayed here while visiting Berlin. Such a great experience. Check in was really easy and the staff were very personal and friendly. The rooms were clean and convenient. The garden area is a great place to meet people. It's not a party hostel, so everyone was chill and easy too get along with. The hostel is walking distance to a few hotspots to visit or can be easily accessed by the train. Great location, great people, would book again!

my friend and i got a twin (2 beds) room for relatively cheap here. the shared bathroom on the floor is split by gender and only contains one toilet, one shower, and two sinks. while there was never really a line for anything, looking back on it now after having been to so many hostels, their facilities should've been a lot bigger. the front desk people are really friendly, but i never saw the same face twice in the three days i was there. there's an access code that you need to get into the front door -- it's changed on a weekly basis. each room has its own set of keys (10 euro deposit per key). the kitchen is the size of a regular kitchen that you would find in a house. no clue how crowded it gets at night since there isn't much space, even in the adjacent lounge area that boasts two sofas. the rooms are clean and spacious, and the hostel is generally quiet. someone comes in once a day to take out the trash, so don't leave your valuables out. the pillows and bedding kinda sucks. the stairwells can be tricky, especially if you walk into the wrong one. the hostel is located in prenzlauer berg, which is pretty out of the way from all the tourist sights. it's conveniently located next to a U2 rail stop, but it would've been nice to stay in mitte instead. there's two grocery stores within a 5 minute walk of the hostel. one to its west, one to its south. there's also an organic market next to the U2 stop, but it's pricier. overall, it's an ok hostel. as the first hostel in a long string of hostel stays during our trip, it looked quite impressive. but in retrospect, it's just average when compared to some of the better hostels we stayed in.

Congratulations Eastseven, you have ruined all other hostels for me. I'll always judge them against my almost perfect time I spent at your establishment. The staff were absolutely amazing. So smiley! My room was big, clean, bright and not smelly. The bathrooms were outrageously clean. The beers: cheap, delicious and cold. Lagerbier Hell! The vegetarian dinner we cooked with the staff was amazing! And so much fun. Even the other guests staying when I was there were awesome. You have the formula perfect, Eastseven. Kudos. Quick bonus story: The dude from Philadelphia that was sleeping next to me. What. A. Character. I first met him after he'd used the bathroom and I was heading in. He'd left the toilet a mess, so behind his back and for this story, I called him Philmore Skidmark. Philmore invited himself to dinner with me. He then told me that he got kicked out of his last hostel for pulling the fire alarm when he couldn't unlock his door. He then told me that all Italian coffee was rubbish because his friend who worked in a Starbucks told him so. His outlandish stories and behavior continued until I checked out, and I would be lying if I said I didn't think about pulling the fire alarm and blaming Mr Skidmark. Someday you'll be a character in my novel, Philmore Skidmark.

This was the first hostel I have ever stayed in and I'm very satisfied with the service. The hostel has a kitchen & lounge area for people to mingle throughout the day. The rooms are VERY clean (sheets, floors, etc) as are the bathrooms. Staff is very friendly & helped us out with every possible question we could have asked for being first timers in Berlin. The hostel offers free walking tours and pub crawls every night. They have a happy hour starting at 8pm with beers for 1 euro..can't beat that! They also have breakfast for 2 euros. The hostel is very close to the city center, clubs & bars. It's definitely not the biggest hostel out there but it's big enough to still feel cozy and comfortable.

I had a great time here with my friends! Not the greatest location but the trains were close by. The hostel is kept super clean and the common space is homely and nice to drink beer and play board games!

Yelp
Great price, great location, helpful staff, clean rooms BUT no free breakfast or free internet. When someone can go online and look up all the stats for a room I expect to see all these things and then judge based on price and location of what I want to do in the city, but the price and location here did make up for the no breakfast and no free internet. Neither are too expensive, but the breakfast is only bread and cereal if you pay for it. They do have coupons for a place down the street as well. The location is 2 stops away from Alexanderplatz which is one of the main stops. The staff knew about vegetarian restaurants to suggest to me, which was great and knew the answer to any question I asked.

Great hostel tucked away in a quiet street in central Berlin. Not in the dead center of the city, but close to the U-bahn and a 20 minutes walk away from the Alexanderplatz. We stayed in a private twin bed room, which was basic, clean and very reasonably priced. The badrooms were quiet (despite the hostel being fully booked) and clean.

This hostel sets the bar at which level one could only dream others would reach. It is perfectly located, it is CLEAN, and the beds are comfortable. The staff was friendly and helpful. Too often, hostels are just gross. EastSeven is a treasure find!

Ryan R.

Yelp
For the price, this hostel gets bumped from 4 to 5 stars. Helpful, kind staff. Clean rooms and bathrooms (shared). Free dinner on Mondays and Wednesdays. Not to mention beer for 1 euro between 8 and 10. Not a party hostel, but in a cool (albeit gentrified* according to some locals) neighborhood. Very close to the U bahn. Also close to some great hangouts like Prater beer garden and Scotch & Sofa. *Given the history of race relations in the United States, the way the German's use the word "gentrification" is kind of an overstatement.

This is a fantastic hostel - clean, stylish and friendly. Myself and 3 friends rented their 4-bed room with en-suite downstairs and it was a lovely room. Everything from the beds, bedding and furniture etc was in really good condition and fantastically clean. The staff are all helpful and friend, particularly one member of staff whose name i didn't get who went on a full search to find us the bottle opener on our first night when we were desperate to get the wine open! It was a bit noisy on the evening (I think because our room was downstairs near to the lounge) but didn't seem to carry on very late - not past 12pm so not really a problem and to be honest it's what I'd expect from a young hip hostel! Fab coffees in the morning and we got 15 mins free internet when we bought them, also cheap beer in the evenings! Really good location in Prenzleberg, all round fab!

Excellent... I really recommend this hostel!! Comfortable rooms.. Albeit sometimes you can hear some noise from the corridors, it isn't a thing to get bothered by.. It was rare.. The team is really nice, the price (January 2014) was worth to pay, good Internet for free even inside the rooms, clean toilets, the breakfast was ok.. The location is also good. I think one of the best options in Berlin, perhaps the best...

Pros: A nice, clean hostel located a short walk from Alexanderplatz and an easy train ride to most city sights. Excellent kitchen with many appliances. Clean, always the top priority. Separate shower stalls. Very fast, free WiFi. Cons: A bit pricey compared to other Berlin hostels. Breakfast doesn't include brötchen, a German breakfast mainstay. Does not have power outlets at every bed. Charges a 3% fee to use Credit Cards. Forced me to use their currency conversion and pay in Dollars, even when I requested to pay in Euros. Added another 3% fee on the total. This is in addition to any foreign transaction fees your card charges. Overall a nice, clean hostel, but not worthy of its price or its super high ratings. Especially when they charge so many credit card fees and there are so many nice hostels in Berlin.

East Seven was a decent hostel in a decent location. Luckily, there is a U Rail stop pretty close by, so public transportation is easily accessible. If you are looking for a fairly cheap hostel with bare bones amenities and a clean (shared) shower, this is your place.

The hosts are so nice and accommodating with suggesting great places to visit whatever your needs are. The rooms are clean and the garden out back is very cozy! 5-stars! Book a room! I'll be back.

I just finished 4th (or maybe 5th?) stay here and I am surprised I haven't written a review yet. This is one of the few places I have encountered on the road that really felt like 'home'. The common areas are nice and spacious, the kitchen is stocked with all of the food-making gadgets you might need. The backyard garden complete with hammocks, foozball, and a bbq. It is super nice to have your morning coffee or an evening beer out there, when the weather is warm enough. The staff all really seem to like their jobs there, and always offer a friendly hello and happily answer any questions you have. Also they are all bilingual, many of them multilingual - and easy to communicate with no matter where you come from. The cleaning staff seem to always be there all day, and do a great job keeping the place super clean. It's very close to the U-Bahn, just two stops away from Alexanderplatz, which is one of the main transit interchange stations. One station north is a great area for shopping and eating. There are several good grocery stores nearby. Between the location, the staff, and the super rad common areas - there is an awesome sense of community that you feel immediately upon entering the hostel. I always look forward to visiting. Until next time - cheers!

The Eastseven Hostel is definitely an excellent choice for first-time-visitors. It's conveniently located in a hip neighborhood, right near a U-Bahn-Station, close to the touristy center Alexanderplatz. It's very clean (people walk around barefoot or on socks) the staff is very friendly and helpful and the place is just very cozy and comfy. For people who have already been to Berlin, I wouldn't recommend it because Prenzlauerberg is just not the type of area you want to hang out, if you know anything about the city. For first-timers it's perfect, people who've already been to Berlin should find something in Kreuzberg.

I had a great stay here. The rooms are nice and clean. They have a good downstairs lounge and kitchen area. I found the staff to be generally helpful, except that I found out afterwards that I was charged $1.52 for using the wifi. Not that expensive given that I used it to Skype for an hour, but it wasn't clear to me that it wasn't free.

I just returned from a five week backpacking trip through Europe, and East Seven was by far my favorite hostel we stayed in. Pros: Nice kitchen with lots of room and utensils (and quite close to a Lidl where you can buy groceries), and within walking distance of a great weekend market, big communal lounge area (complete with a laptop dedicated to spotify, so you can share music with other guests), massive courtyard. They give you a wristband upon entry and actually do check when you enter, and there's also a rotating door code so I felt quite safe inside. The pub crawl that picks up is great fun, we actually went twice because a few of the bars rotate. Cons: I honestly can't think of one. Stay here!!

Great place to meet people and amazing front desk staff. Stayed in a private room, shared bathroom. Grocery store down the street is super cheap! Breakfast is alright... Walking tour was GREAT! Would definitely recommend it to others.

This is a no-frills hostel that makes you wonder why anyone would want the frills anyways. The staff are so friendly, and the atmosphere so welcoming, that you immediately feel at home. 10/10 would stay again.

East Seven is the perfect example of what happens when the operators and employees of a hostel take pride in their establishment. It's the little things like one euro beers and free facebook on the computer. Front desk was VERY helpful, and was quick to provide restaurant recommendations and travel tips (do the free walking tour! very, very worth it). Rooms and bathroom facilities were very clean. Will be recommending this to all my friends traveling to Berlin.

My sister, two friends and I shared a room here back in April for 5 days. We were on the first floor and had our own bathroom - awesome! The room was a good size and the staff was so nice and very helpful. I loved the free Monday night dinners they hosted too. The hostel seemed very safe - they change the lock code on the door every few days. They also had free unlimited wifi, you just have to get a code from the front desk. I definitely recommend this hostel!

When we checked in to EastSeven, we were met by friendly staff and smiling faces. This was a good indicator of things to come - there were clean rooms and a great experience, complete with free wifi. The only negatives were the rather disappointing in-house breakfast and the under-performing sinks in the bathroom. An easier way to get luggage to our fourth-floor room would have been nice as well.

great place, best I have stayed in so far. wonderful and quiet garden, lounge and even a selfcatering kitchen. free walking tour, free WiFi even in the rooms, amazing staff and good german beer - not the cheap stuff although their prices are very moderate. rooms are very comfortable (big pillows) and the decor is very nicely done. all in all a very relaxed and wonderful base to explore the city from.
