Once the former home of the Stasi, the space was revamped and renovated to create a hip and fashionable boutique hotel, Château Royal, in the heart of Mitte. When walking into the bar, you’re greeted with positive affirmations such as “You sexy m***** f*****!!!!”. And you know what else is sexy? The elegant atmosphere, delightful cocktails and high-class service — whether you’re a hotel guest or not. Open from 12 pm to 22 pm, it’s a great meeting place for business or pleasure. Indulge in a three-martini lunch or catch up with friends for a post-work nightcap. Speaking of the drinks, the staff has an eye for detail. They put their spin on timeless classics and create delicious signature cocktails that are on par with the bar’s brand. So what drink should you try first? We suggest the Negroni Sous Vide 62, made with Freimeister Kollektiv Gin, Blood Orange, and Campari, which utilizes the popular bar technique to enhance the flavor profile. Or maybe the Naked & Famous or Paloma Royal are more to your taste. No matter what cocktail you choose, you won’t be disappointed. And because we all get a bit hungry while drinking, bar snacks such as olives or a Club Sandwich are available to curb your cravings. Château Royal is the perfect spot to unwind day or night.
