Joie de Vivre oozes old-school elegance. It’s an old Altbau with high ceilings, herringbone floors, and striking crown moulding. It has everything you need for a good time – a projector for movie nights, bar accessories for making delicious cocktails, and a huge dining room with space for entertaining. Kurfürstendamm is only a stone’s throw away, so no need to hop onto the U-Bahn if you want to go shopping or have dinner in a glamorous restaurant.

Home truths:
*The wifi was a bit slow when we visited
*A dog usually lives here – it won’t be around during your stay, but it might be an issue for people with allergies
*Even though there’s a lift to take you to the fourth floor, you will still have to climb a couple of steps to reach the front door
