Provocateur
Burlesque-glamour boutique hotel. Moody, sensual, theatrical. More boudoir than business hotel.
Book a Bellevue or higher for a balcony — worth the upgrade in summer
Why It Matters
Winner of Mixology Bar Awards 'Hotel Bar of the Year' in both 2019 and 2024. Member of Design Hotels and Marriott Bonvoy. Interior by Saar Zafrir inside a beautifully restored 1911 Art Nouveau shell with an original 1912 elevator still in service. Each room has a 'Provocateur Mode' that transforms the lighting and ambiance at the press of a button. German Design Award winner 2018.
Provocateur is a 58-room boutique hotel inside a 1911 Art Nouveau building in Berlin's Charlottenburg district, just off the Kurfürstendamm. The interior, designed by Saar Zafrir, is a full-on burlesque fantasy: dark red and petrol-blue velvet beds, brass fittings, dim chandeliers, fishbone parquet flooring, and black marble bathrooms. Think 1920s Paris filtered through a Berlin lens. The bar is one of the city's best — a multiple award-winner — and in summer the terrace fills with locals as much as hotel guests.
Where You'll Stay
8 room types available
Bellevue
The first tier with a private balcony. 28 sqm, king bed, city views. Red velvet throughout. In summer, the balcony alone makes it worth the bump up in price. Marble bathroom with rain shower.
King · 28 sqm
Classic
From 25 sqm and genuinely comfortable for two. Queen bed, patio view, the same burlesque-inflected design palette throughout — velvet armchairs, floor-to-ceiling closet, rain shower in a black marble bathroom.
Queen · 25 sqmDe Luxe
The standout room category at 32–46 sqm. King bed, city views, a freestanding clawfoot bathtub right in the room, plus a separate rain shower. Some rooms also have a projector showing moody black-and-white art films. This is the sweet spot for a special stay.
King · 39 sqm
Intime
Step up from the Petite at 20 sqm. Some rooms face the patio, others look toward the city. Red or blue velvet tones, queen bed, mirrors, layered curtains for theatrical lighting control. Still compact, but more breathing room.
Queen · 20 sqmMaison Suite
The top room at 65 sqm. King bed under a sloping ceiling, a separate living area with velvet sofa and Marshall speaker, a freestanding bathtub, rain shower, and sky views. Genuinely apartment-like. Built for celebrations — anniversaries, birthdays, groups of close friends who want a proper gathering space.
King · 65 sqmPetite
The smallest room in the house — 15 sqm — but every centimetre has been considered. Queen-size bed, patio view, black marble bathroom with rain shower, and DALUMA toiletries. A proper room for a sharp Berlin weekend when you plan to spend most of your time out.
Queen · 15 sqmSupérieur
At 27 sqm, this is where the rooms start to feel genuinely roomy. City or courtyard views, queen bed, the full Saar Zafrir design treatment. A solid choice for a couple who actually want to spend time in the room.
Queen · 27 sqmTerrace Suite
40 sqm with a private terrace — think champagne under the Berlin sky. King bed, city views, rain shower, full suite amenities. The outdoor space sets this apart from the De Luxe.
