lol unless they work for a major german trance artist. berghain, watergate, and weekend are all fine on entry so long as you don't look/act like part of the models+bottles crowd. the best parties are the ones never advertised. berlin+prague both are amazing cities to wander through...try dropping off the tourist path.

Originally posted by netroM I can't speak for Prague, but when we were in Berlin for our classtrip, we stayed at a hostel called Hostel am der Zoo iirc. Located right next to the Zoological Garden. Pretty much in the middle of the city. Was really cheap. Bunkbeds and shit. The lounge area was cool tho, biljards table and drinks in the bar Great chinese place directly under us, sex "utility" shop right next door to that. Really shabby place. We were 16-17 at the time tho, so didn't go to any clubs, just pubs...

I think that's the same hostel I stayed when I was there. Convenient location, a couple of fun places near there, though there's no way I'd be able to find them again... World Cup wasn't good on the memory.

I had a really good experience at this hostel in berlin:

not really in a cool neighborhood per se, but it's so centrally located and close to the u-bahn that it is no difficulty at all to get anywhere - kreuzberg, fhain, alexanderplatz, mitte.

But the real way to go is, like schadenfreude said, to make german friends.

Berlin for partying, Prague for sightseeing and chicks.
