Gay & Lesbian Scene
in Berlin
Berlin's status as a gay Mecca was truly born in the famously louche and hedonistic times of the Golden Twenties when Marlene Dietrich was living the fast life and Christopher Isherwood was drawn to the capital in search of handsome boys.
With reunification in 1989 and an increasing acceptance of gay lifestyles worldwide, Berlin's status as one of the planet's largest gaytropolises has been firmly cemented. No one need feel the odd one out in Berlin when scores of gay nightclubs, saunas, festivals, hotels and publications exist - even the mayor of Berlin himself is gay, and proud of it! As for a specific gay areas, Schöneberg is perhaps the pinkest district, with Motzstrasse, Fuggerstrasse and Nollendorf Platz boasting a high concentration of cafes, bars and saunas; but Mitte, Prenzlauer Berg , Kreuzberg-Friedrichshain and Tiergarten all have healthy scenes and hotspots are spread throughout the whole of Berlin. Check out the hotels we have nearby, and see what Berlin's gay scene has to offer you!
