NEOHOSTEL, Berlin

The hostel is situated in a calm but industrial-edged area within Köpenick. A tram stop is directly outside the entrance, with services connecting to Adlershof S-Bahn station in about 10 minutes, from which central Berlin (Alexanderplatz, East Side Gallery) is a further 30-35 minutes. The journey into the city centre typically takes around 45 minutes by public transport, requiring one change. For airport arrivals, a taxi or Uber takes roughly 25 minutes, while public transport (S-Bahn to Adlershof, then bus 162 to Betonwerk) takes around 45-60 minutes. The surrounding neighbourhood includes a Lidl supermarket within a 10-15 minute walk, an Italian pizzeria, and a Turkish street food spot one tram stop away. A Lidl is also within 500 metres. The area near the hostel is close to a cement factory and old factory buildings, which gives it an unusual setting. A short walk leads to the Köpenick Palace and its gardens, a local highlight.

Leisure amenities focus on outdoor and social spaces. The garden contains outdoor furniture, a picnic area, and barbecue facilities. A bar in a shipping-container style serves drinks at low prices, with seating outdoors and a small football pitch. Inside, the hostel offers table football and billiards for guests. Bicycle rental is available for an additional charge. Boating, kayaking, and canoeing can be enjoyed in the surrounding area - the Köpenick waterways and nearby palace gardens provide a pleasant walking and cycling environment. There is no on-site pool, sauna, gym, or spa. The lounge area is limited to kitchen seating, with no dedicated cosy lounge with armchairs or sofas.
