Lil, Berlin Cityguide in one paragraph
In Berlin, you can a) take a walk on the old airport Tempelhofer Feld. b) Stroll along the Kudamm and slurp on an eclectic assortment of oysters at the Kadewe amongst the most international people Berlin can offer. c) have art-historical views & talks in the Hamburger Bahnhof, the Gropiusbau, or in one of the countless galleries. d) Or contemplate on photographs in the C/O Berlin. e) As a reward relax in one of the dayspa suites in Berlin's huge inner city SPA, the Vabali. d) Take the bus line 100 and f) take advantage of one of the many subsidised theatre, opera, dance and music offerings. g) Go skinny-dipping in one of the many lakes h) ride along the Berlin Wall Trail with rented bicycles. i) Late in the evening we will get hungry....

Sleepless nights? The best hotels in Berlin
In Berlin there are endless dance music clubs. Even there are sex music clubs in Berlin like the Insomnia, the Kitkat or Pornceptual. Yet Berlin weakens when it comes to beautiful hotels. Here is a small selection of appropriately phantasy inducing hotels in Berlin
Château Royal (my new favourite)
SO/ Berlin Das Stue (classic)
Sir Savigny (City West, not so discrete)
Provocateur (everbodies darling, not mine)
Hotel de Rome (central classic)
Henri (budget but very lovely!)
The Mandala Hotel – spacious and discreet
Wir tuen nichts Verbotenes, dennoch schließt leider 'sehr-diskret' in Berlin ein gutes Design aus, stabil sind
Ritz (central), Adlon, Waldorf (bath tubs!) etc.
25h (the view!)
the Sky Suites of Park Inn (the view!!!)
the Amano’s (never been)
Gorki Apartments, Noma & serviced apartments
the Crown Plaza (discreteness tip!)
I am fascinated by that sparkle in your eyes when I enter the restaurant or my hand gestures elegantly during dinner. How you watch my body and listen to my voice – in silent anticipation.
