Reviews of Generator Hostel Berlin

Peter Lubej

Very close to the S-Bahn station and nice place to meet young people from all over the world. Could be closer to the city center!

Cheap and clean.

The Bar is very nice with deals running all the time

Sharon Hrris

Fun and funky, but without the need to sacrifice the little luxuries in life such as safety, security, cleanliness. An all round good vibe and staff are really knowledgable and helpful. Only a 10 minute tram ride from Alexanderplatz and accessible to airports so not as out-of-the way as you may first believe. Supermarkets and eateries are all in the vicinity with a swimming pool complex just across the road and bowling facility not far away. Plus, the NewEurope Tour People are around to take you to the meet-up point at Brandenburg Tor every day so no excuse to get lost. Es ist ausserst gut. Wunderbar!

It was one of the best hostels I have stayed in

Customer review

Not too hard to find but make sure to definately get off at Lansberger as opposed to Storkhasse if on the ring metro. The staff were moderately helpful but the main boosts are the atmosphere and the events held within the infamous generator bar which I would recommend to any stayer. B+

Customer review

The free breakfast buffet was okay. Dinnerplates offered were good value for money (€5 or €6). Happy Hour in the bar from 17.00 to 19.00 hours was a good idea.

Cheap, cheap, cheap. Food, drink, accommodation was so good and so cheap.

Danielle Salmoria

Really good. A few amends: too much bureaucracy to lend an plug adaptor (I had to wait in a queue and gave up); there should be a few fruits included in the morning coffee, not only to sell; and definitely, for the price and size of the hostel, the internet should be free and there should be more computers. I waited 1h to use it. Apart from those, great.

Max Wood

Really big and fun with loads of people and stuff to do. Breakfast is very good!

It said on the websit free pub crawl from reception the pub crawl had to be paid for but nevertheless was very good.

The hostel is HUUUUGE, if you like the intimate style, this is not for you. Very impersonal, but it was clean, had a nice atmosphere and cool bar with events every night. The breakfast is good, buffet style and free. It is far from the center, but on the S-Bahn trains it is easy and fast to get around. The rooms weren't cramped and it was clean enough. It is crowded and loud, but people are friendly and huge area to lounge around. Internet is a bit expensive, but laundry is good at 5 euros, including detergent, wash and dry; though it takes like 4 hours for the dryer to finish its cycle. It was definetly not the homey style hostel, but very good for the 8euros/night we paid.

Customer review

The hostel had a nice common area to mingle with other individuals, but most people stayed to themselves.

It was definitely a party atmosphere and a bit out of the centre which meant that places nearby were relatively cheap compared. There was a lovely shopping centre around the corner for convenience. However, the shared bathroom can be inconvenient especially when at the other side of the corridor as we were-walking in your pjs past lads that have been out til 7 am is slightly embarrassing, and there is nowhere to put your things in the communal showers other than risking leaving them on the floor!! Nevertheless we enjoyed our stay and it was ok value for money

Rebecca Shears

Such a young atmosphere!!
