Hi,

I am due to go to Berlin on business from Thursday next to Monday. The meeting is in the area near the Rummelsburg station. I want to stay near the centre of the city but don't know the districts to judge where to book accommodation so as to be commutable to the meeting.

I have phoned the venue but the person didn't speak English and I don't speak German...

Anyone know Berlin well enough to advise?

I've googled maps but afraid I can't make much sense of it all.

Thanks

jph

I see the station now, it's on the S3 S-bahn railway line in the east of the city.


OK, I have been to Berlin 3 times. I would stay near the Alexanderplatz station, Hackescher Markt station or Friedrichstr. station. All these are on the S3 rail line.

Yes, the S-Bahn is going through some serious problems. They had to pull out all rolling stock for safety inspections. A short time later, the same thing happened again. There are many other means of public transport in Berlin (metro, tram, bus) - better count on them.
