I went on Christmas holiday. It was pretty cold but there was all the Christmas decoration and the atmosphere was incredibly welcoming. I was with my family and we stayed in an hostel. During the day I organized a sort of tour to visit the most famous thing like the Berlin wall. I loved that city.

Hey! I’ve been in Berlin twice. The 1st one was in November. For my perspective, Berlin is expensive. The hotels are expensive actually. I stayed at leonardo hotel Berlin mitte, it was brilliant and worth of money but still expensive! I went to see my friend but I was only with him at nights. During the day I was feeling safe, but I think at nights it’s a bit scary for a girl to be alone. The food was ok.. some restaurants were really good and some others not, but you can see reviews before you go everywhere
Posted: June 30, 2025We stayed at Neohostel which I liked by the way. Every morning we had a buffet breakfast. The city was beautiful. I went to the Innotrans exhibition which I really enjoyed and the people there were very nice too.Check out the exhibition, the next one will be in 2026 and I really enjoyed it, maybe you will too. Besides Berlin, I was also in Erlen and Erlensee, a fantastic place. Germany, I will definitely go again.☺️
Posted: June 30, 2025Experienced: August, 2024Overall it is a safe city. My comment is only on the cleanliness since there was so much trash in the public areas, even in the parks. I found some good and affordable Vietnamese restaurants that were so good and enjoyable. I was lucky to find a gay hotel (honestly I've never feel more safer around men like that in my whole life), I love them.

I love Berlin! Because there is a lot going on I feel really safe in Berlin. I would recommend taking a stroll through one of the many parks in Berlin, get a Sterni Bier and definitely a Falafel wrap from Libanon Falafel in Neukölln!

Safe? Yes and no. But more no than yes. Expensive? In my opinion yes. But Berlin is an interesting and different. Absolutely worth a visit. lots of beer, wine and delicious Asian cuisine. Although you can find food for every taste there. Berlin is multicultural.

It really depends on the location. If it is on the outer ring of Berlin or in the more wealthy parts, it is very safe. However, Berlin Mitte, Neukölln, Wedding, Kreuzberg, Schöneberg and some other districts are rather rough, especially at night. I also don't feel very safe in the U-Bahn, so I recommend busses, the Regionalbahn or the S-Bahn at night.

It’s safe enough. I walk sometimes at night. But make sure that you are in big streets with good lighting. Some of the streets (mostly U-Bahns) may be dangerous for solo woman travelers. But I didnt hear such stories yet. Be safe)
