City trip | Discover Berlin
The AMERON Berlin ABION Spreebogen Waterside is the ideal starting point for your activities in the city. We show you the most beautiful and exciting corners of the capital.
12xBerlin
Berlin's 12 districts give the German capital its face. Each has its own unique charm. The Kiez, especially in Berlin, refers to a still manageable residential area in the individual districts. Every Berliner lives in his or her neighbourhood and - according to the cliché - never leaves it. This makes it both smaller and larger than any other district. Kiez is a cult. It creates identity and gives its inhabitants a sense of home. Some Kiez have no name, others have made it into the Berlin travel guides of this world. Take a look here: Kollwitzkiez, Boxhagenerkiez, Bergmannkiez.
Street Food
Street food markets and food trucks have become a real trend. Here you can discover new tastes on an upscale level from all over the world. Whether Thai tapioca dumplings or Vietnamese porridge - the choice is overwhelming. But also classics like cheese spaetzle or the good old burger are reinterpreted by the food truck operators. The Markthalle Neun in Kreuzberg is very popular. With Street Food Thursday, the operators started a wave of street food events in Berlin. Other successful events followed, such as the Naschmarkt and the Breakfast Market.

Victory Column | Siegessäule
The Victory Column with its golden Victoria statue is one of Berlin's most famous landmarks, along with the Brandenburg Gate and the TV Tower. After climbing the 285 steps, you have a wonderful view over the Tiergarten and the roofs of the city from the viewing platform. Among other things, the Siegessäule became famous for the Love Parade, whose closing party was held for many years on the square in front of the Siegessäule. Berliners don't have much to do with the official name. They call the Victoria the "Goldelse".
Distance from the hotel: approx. 15 min. (public transport)
Spätkauf - Berlin neighbourhood culture
The Späti is one of the most important places to go in Berlin and an integral part of neighbourhood culture. Whether basic groceries, flowers, the after-work beer or tobacco products. You can get almost anything here. There are about 1,000 of them in the capital, most of them in the city centre. It is a supermarket, meeting place, internet café, bakery, drugstore, lottery office, post office and pub all in one.
Zoo & Café at the New Lake
More than just a beer garden. In the middle of the Tiergarten, romantically situated by the lake and between trees, is one of the most beautiful beer gardens in Berlin. Here, after just a short walk, you can enjoy oven-fresh pizza and cool beer in a pleasantly relaxed atmosphere.
Distance from the hotel: approx. 15 min. (public transport)
The Oberbaum Bridge
The Oberbaum Bridge connects the districts of Kreuzberg and Friedrichshain and is the landmark of these districts. The central arch of the bridge is adorned by two towers, each 34 metres high, whose cantilevered battlements are modelled on the middle gate tower of the city wall in Prenzlau. From there you have a good view of the Molecule Man, which was created in May 1999 by the American sculptor Jonathan Borofsky. It is a three-person sculpture that was erected near the intersection of the three districts of Alt-Treptow, Kreuzberg and Friedrichshain.
