Has anyone been to Berlin recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- New venues worth checking out
I was there 6 months ago and had a mixed time. Wondering if things have changed.
Keen to hear from anyone who has been recently.
Cheers
Oranienburger Straße — still the best area in Berlin?

I was there in January and prices were slightly higher. Spent about $120/day all-in.
My tip: try the local spots away from tourists.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

Did you use local sites or find girls at clubs?
