mellody Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 i have been staying at 2 other hostels of this chain (Meininger, they have hostels all over europe), one of them in berlin, and they were good. this one is supposed to be even better than the other berlin one where i have been staying before. of course, if you stay in a dormitory, you shouldn't mind sleeping in one room with strangers, but backpackers do that all the time, it's a great way to meet new people. Meininger also has single rooms though, if you prefer that and don't mind to pay more. The hostel at Hallesches Ufer is only about 2 km away from the church, it's 2 underground stations, or you can walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mellody Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 so far, the weather forecast for berlin on june 1st says partly cloudy, 18-22°C. but it's very insecure so far in advance. robi, you only want to go sightseeing for alexanderplatz? how about brandenburg gate and kurfürstendamm? there's some stuff on wikipedia, if you need some more ideas for sightseeing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berlin#Architecture and don't forget the world famous polar bear "Knut" at the berlin zoo.

CottonCandy Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 so far, the weather forecast for berlin on june 1st says partly cloudy, 18-22°C. but it's very insecure so far in advance. yup. wetter.de predicts a sunny 20-30°C. very exact, i know but no thunderstorms, no storms and no snow yay WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO WEAR??

mellody Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 wouldn't be so sure about the thunderstorms, you'll never know on a hot+sunny day... and what am i going to wear? probably a summer dress. i'll decide 3 days in advance, when the weather forecast is more reliable.

robertina Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 just an average from past years... i'll check the weather later on thanks mellody, i thought about alexanderplatz cause it's the famous place in berlin, but i'd like to see some more of the city! summer dress for me too, i only have to plan something just in case of heavy rain....

mellody Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 i wonder why alexanderplatz is so famous, i found it quite unspectacular and rather loud and dirty. i only can imagine that it's famous because of the novel "berlin alexanderplatz". if i could visit just one sight in berlin, i'd choose the brandenburg gate. but as i've been in berlin about 5 times already, for me this time is only for the concert, not for sightseeing.

rockstardelight Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 has anyone received the tickets? or does anyone got the mail, that they have been dispatched? that does mean that we have to collect them somewhere or what? can't see that everything is under control like freddies double said?

Don't worry, if we don't get the tickets by post, we can sure get them at the venue showing the receipt we printed when we bought them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
