Telegraphenamt
Industrial-chic neo-Baroque. Bare brick walls, exposed steel girders, Deco flourishes, and original pneumatic-tube postal equipment used as décor. Think 1920s Berlin filtered through a contemporary design lens. The lobby was once the main telegraph counter hall. The whole building communicates.
Book a Roomy City or Cosy City room for views of Monbijou Park and the TV tower — the courtyard-facing rooms are quieter but the city views are the payoff
Why It Matters
Awarded 2 Michelin Keys 2025 and Falstaff 5 Stars / 92 Points 2026. The former Haupttelegraphenamt was once the largest imperial telegraph communications center in Europe — up to 20,000 telegrams sent daily until 1976. König Galerie, one of Berlin's most significant contemporary art galleries, opened a second Berlin outpost inside the building in 2023. The 1,200 sqm gym is consistently called one of the best in any Berlin hotel.
A neo-Baroque monument built between 1910 and 1916 as Germany's most elaborate postal building, reopened in November 2022 as a stylish boutique hotel and private members' club. The award-winning DREIMETA architects stripped things back to raw brick and exposed girders, then layered in art deco detailing and Babylon Berlin references. Dark, moody, and genuinely cinematic — guests either love it or find the dim corridors disorienting.
Where You'll Stay
7 room types available
Cosy
From EUR285 / nightThe entry room, facing the quiet inner courtyard. At 24 sqm it's compact but considered — super king bed, walk-in rainforest shower, and a dedicated workspace/vanity table. Some rooms have a French balcony. Interconnecting door to Roomy available.
Super king · 24 sqmCosy City
From EUR345 / nightSame footprint as Cosy but flipped toward the street for city views — the TV tower, Monbijou Park, and the pulse of Mitte. Historic cap ceilings give it a period feel. Marshall Bluetooth speaker added. Some rooms include a French balcony dormer.
Super king · 26 sqm
Graham's Residence
From EUR1,175 / nightThe top-floor penthouse at 140 sqm over two floors. A stylish staircase connects the living area (lower floor, with bull-eye window, dining table for 8, and kitchenette) to the bedroom above. Spectacular city views, a little balcony, and entrance doors on both floors. The biggest room in the hotel by some margin.
Super king · 140 sqm
Mabel's Place
From EUR1,170 / nightA proper 100 sqm suite on two floors, with panorama windows putting Berlin on full display. Spiral staircase connects the bedroom, kitchen, and living area below to the bathroom — which has a freestanding bathtub — above. Two full bathrooms, a dressing room, a kitchenette, and a dining table for six. Also sleeps one extra guest on the sofa bed.
Super king · 100 sqm
Maisonette
From EUR695 / nightTwo floors connected by an internal staircase, with the bedroom below and the living area above. Industrial design language — large, high-rising windows, exposed structure, and elegant furniture. At 40 sqm across two levels it feels considerably bigger than the footprint suggests.
Super king · 40 sqm
Roomy
From EUR360 / nightNoticeably more spacious at 32 sqm, facing the inner courtyard for maximum quiet. The extra floor space makes the living and sleeping areas feel genuinely separate. Marshall Bluetooth speaker is a nice touch. Interconnecting door to Cosy available.
Super king · 32 sqmRoomy City
From EUR414 / nightAt 34 sqm with views of Monbijou Park, the TV tower, or street life below. A balcony on some configurations lets you lean into the Berlin skyline over morning coffee. The comfortable furniture makes it hard to leave.
