U3 and bus stops across the street, with the forest two streets away, offer a unique combination of urban transit and suburban calm.
Located on a quiet, tree-lined side street in Zehlendorf, the pension sits directly opposite the U3 subway station and a bus stop, making central Berlin, Messe Berlin (8 km), and Brandenburg Gate easily accessible. The forest begins a short walk away. A supermarket, bakery, and cafés are within a few minutes' walk. Berlin Brandenburg Airport is 22 km away. Free street parking can usually be found in the neighbourhood.

Accommodation

Rooms are clean, practical, and include a wardrobe, heating, flat-screen TV, and garden or courtyard views.
All rooms feature a wardrobe, heating, flat-screen TV, and free toiletries. Some rooms offer garden views, while others face the inner courtyard or the quiet street from a private terrace. Single, double, twin/double, and quadruple room configurations are available (one single room offers 1 bed, one double room offers 2 beds, the quadruple room has 4 beds). A kettle with tea and coffee is provided in the room, along with a refrigerator. While some rooms have a private bathroom, others have a private bathroom located across the hall, so confirmation is recommended when booking. Daily housekeeping and towel changes every two days are typical.

Dining

The on-site Der Kretaner restaurant serves modern Greek cuisine for lunch and dinner, with extensive dietary options.
The modern restaurant offers Greek dishes with vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free choices. Lunch and dinner are served Tuesday to Saturday, 12:00-21:00.

A bakery is conveniently located by the bus stop across the street for morning coffee or pastries.

Leisure

The guest house provides a quiet inner courtyard, a garden, and a sun terrace for relaxation. Boating is noted as an activity in the surrounding area. The proximity to a forest offers additional leisure walking opportunities.

Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Use the U3 station directly across the street for quick trips to central Berlin and Kurfürstendamm.

  • 02

    Book a table at the restaurant if traveling on Monday, as it is closed and the pension currently offers no alternative on-site dining.

  • 03

    Check if your room includes a private bathroom or a dedicated bathroom across the hall, as this varies by room type.
