Axel Hotel Berlin: A stylish LGBTQ+ hub in Schöneberg featuring 'heterofriendly' luxury, a rooftop bar, and a famous wellness area.
About
Welcome to Axel Hotel Berlin, an iconic cornerstone of the German capital’s vibrant queer landscape. Situated in the historic Schöneberg district—the legendary heart of the city's LGBTQ+ community—this 'heterofriendly' hotel is much more than just a place to stay; it’s a social hub designed with gay men and the broader queer community in mind. From the moment you arrive, the avant-garde design, characterized by a sophisticated palette of gold and black, sets a tone of glamour and intrigue. Each of the 87 rooms is a sanctuary of comfort, featuring floor-to-ceiling windows and sensual details like translucent bathroom walls. But the real magic happens in the shared spaces. No gay map of the city is complete without mentioning the hotel's 6th-floor wellness area. Here, guests can unwind in the sauna, Turkish bath, or the famous outdoor jacuzzi, which offers a perfect vantage point for socializing and relaxation under the Berlin sky. After a day exploring the nearby KaDeWe department store or the local bars and clubs of Schöneberg, head up to the Urban Bar for a cocktail with a view. Whether you are visiting for a romantic getaway or a spirited adventure, Axel Hotel Berlin provides a safe, stylish, and open-minded environment where the philosophy of 'diversity and respect' is always at the forefront.
