About this property
Miniloft Berlin Mitte - Apartment Hotel: Unique Lofts, Prizewinning Architecture
Miniloft Mitte's downtown studio apartments are located in a stunning, prize winning building that combines a new building with renovation of an existing structure from the nineteenth century. The architects/designers are also the owners of the apartment, and have their own apartment in the building with their family. Architecture buffs love it here!
This listing is for a studio apartment in the category "Extroverted". We have a total of 4 different studio apartment types in our hotel: "Extroverted", "Introverted", "Classic" and "Compact". If you are not picky, you may enjoy the non-specific "flexible" competitive rate, where you will be booked into the best apartment available at the time of your arrival.
The apartments allow you full independence while enjoying your stay in Berlin in a unique atmosphere. The generous floor plan allows you to indulge in the modern luxury of pure space. The apartments are equipped with everything you need, and we provide all-organic products and cleaning supplies.
All major public transportation routes can be easily reached from this central location, and so many Berlin attractions are within walking distance (Brandenburg Gate, Reichstag, Alexanderplatz, Berlin Wall museum).
There are supermarkets and excellent restaurants and cafes within five minutes walk.
Here is a bit of our history:
The Building - Phase 1: Britta Jürgens and Matthew Griffin, the architects who run the minilofts, also developed and designed the buildings. The Miniloft building was built on the property Hessische Str. 5 in two phases from 2001 – 2004. It is a complex interweave of renovation and new construction. When they bought the property in 1999, the rear wing which now houses the classic minilofts was a run down building from the 1890's typical of Berlin Mitte. In the first phase the architects completely transformed the narrow original wing by renovating the existing apartments.
The Building - Phase 2: In the second phase, the modern miniloft building (bender), was constructed in the overgrown bomb site at the front of the property. Its three bent stainless steel ribbons embrace the existing rear wing behind and navigate between the buildings on either side.
The building has received several prizes, and been internationally published in many magazines and books all over the world, from Canada to Japan and China.
THINGS TO NOTE:
As with all of the city center of Berlin, there can be some construction going on around us, although the apartments are well insulated, it is normal that during business hours some audible disturbances might occur.
*The suns shades that you see in the pictures don't work anymore and it is unfortunately not fixable but we have dark curtains to provide shades in the Extroverted lofts.
Story behind the sun shades fiasco is on our hotel website called the Miniloft Apartment hotel Berlin/Design and architecture/The Miniloft Process/Design of the hotel: Glazed crime thriller
*NO LATE CHECK OUTS AND EARLY CHECK INS. Please contact the management team via message for such requests.
*No Air conditioning.
*We have a sanded concrete floor with a rug in the living area and a sisal carpet in the dining area.For long term stay with toddlers , it might not be ideal.

Miniloft Mitte was a nice place to stay for a couple nights in Berlin. Super close to public transportation to all the sights and the central train station. Would stay again!
Mygranddaughter and I came to Berlin for five days for a history tour vacation. The place that we stayed was centrally located in walking distance to the train station to get around Berlin easily without needing a car. We enjoyed the place and the surroundings. I highly recommend this place for those of you who like to walk around to tour.
This was a great place to stay while in Berlin. 10 minutes walk from the main train station Hbf, and then about 20-30 minutes walks to Alexanderplatz, Reichstadt and the Zoo, all through very interesting neighbourhoods with great restaurants and stores. Apartment was beautiful with all amenities

Miniloft is perfect
Miniloft is the perfect accommodation for a trip to Berlin! It was clean, conveniently located and the service was impeccable. Unlike a stuffy hotel or a shady hostel - it truly felt like home. We will certainly be staying there again in future trips to Berlin. Thank you, Minilofts!
Three of us were visiting Berlin and were so happy to have stayed in this complex. It is close to the main train station and on the bus line to Tegel Airport. There are food stores and great restaurants in the area. We able to walk around the city each day without needing any form of mass transit.
This was our first visit to Berlin. The location is great since it is within walking distance of the main train station in Berlin (a quicker tram ride) plus it is convenient to a subway stope and tram stops. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and spacious. There are plenty of places to eat nearby, or a short tram ride away for more variety. We were very satisfied with the stay.

It was a wonderful stay in Germany
My husband and I spent 7 nights in Berlin at the Miniloftmitte. We found the accomodations to be perfect for our wonderful week in the city. The apartment was perfectly located, well-appointed with everything we needed, well maintained, and the staff was very helpful.
Also the Berlin guide book that was provided was invaluable to help us get around the city, and the restaurant recommendations were perfect.
We highly recommend the Minilofts to anyone traveling in Berlin!
We are all mature, experienced, travellers; this place was on a main tram and underground line. The apartment was clean, and the beds were comfortable. It had everything we needed for a week's stay. Communication with hosts ( who I believe are architects?) was efficient, prompt, and helpful. Great week in Berlin! Would stay there again!! :-)
With a homemade coffee and freshly baked bread from the bakery around the corner to start the day. The dining table was my favorite place to plan a day of sightseeing. The tips en trips provided in de Miniloft Berlin Guide were a great addition.
The Miniloft provides you a house in Berlin. It is overwhelming spacious.
This was a return trip to Berlin after many years, and the Mitte Miniloft was an ideal apartment for our week-long visit. The location was very close to public transportation, markets, restaurants, and cultural sites. Communication and check-in was seamless and the host was very responsive. The only issue we encountered was a non-functioning ceiling fan, and while it couldn't be repaired during our stay, the host provided floor fans to help with our comfort.

Designer loft with great location and service
We were a family of 3. Stayed in Berlin for 3 nights and LOVED the Miniloft. Very cool desing, very clean and very well located. You can walk everywhere from there.
We also loved the guide book written and provided by the owners of the Miniloft. Very informative and fun. And the owners were very relaxed, let us stay way passed the check out hour which was great for us to spend extra time in the beautiful city.
We will definitely go back!!

Stay at Miniloft
We spent a week in a Miniloft compact studio in September 2012. We found the location excellent. We could live like Berliners and shop for groceries in the area. The studio was comfortable, airy and well kept. We had everything we needed for self-catering.
The staff was friendly, efficient and very helpful with useful tips. No unpleasant surprises.
If we return to Berlin we would definitely stay there again.
Center City Homebase right off public transportation.
Renting this property was really easy. Straightforward process. Finding they keys is always an adventure with this type of rental. Not here. Easy to find. This unit is near several groceries, coffee shops, and local restaurants. The unit is modern and clean and was the perfect fit for our two week stay during the Christmas and New Year season.

Perfect apartment in excellent location
It was the second time I stayed at Miniloft and this time I brought my family - wife and two teenage sons.
To my satisfaction the apartment worked just as well for the whole family as it had done for me when I stayed there myself. Perfect apartment to make yourself at home and in an excellent location, central but quiet. We enjoyed the architecture, the materials, the furniture and the equipment. Extra plus for providing oil, salt and pepper for cooking and salad-eating if you feel like staying at home at night....We ould gladly recommend Miniloft to anyone!
