Visiting Berlin can be a great experience, even if the traveler has a tight budget. In order to get the most bang for your buck (or deutch-mark), it's imperative to know where to go to find such bargains. The Prenzlauer Berg area is a neighborhood in the city of Berlin which offers great accommodations and wonderful eateries for all who come to visit. Berlin is a gorgeous historical town. 

Lodging

One of the best places to get a good night’s sleep and not break the bank in Prenzlauer Berg would be the Eastern Comfort Hostel. This Hostel is a boat-hostel that's located in the Eastern part of Berlin, just along the border between the districts of Friedrichshain and Kreuzberg. A bed in a four bedroom accommodation suite is likely to cost you approximately twenty U.S. dollars for one night. To really understand how unique and full of character a night in the Eastern Comfort Hostel is, you must experience this for yourself and let the boat rock you to sleep.

For those wanting a little more intrigue and solid footing, there's the Alcatraz Hostel, which is located right in the heart of the trendy sector of Berlin. For only thirteen dollars a night, an individual traveler can stay in an eight bedroom dorm with all the comforts of a college dormitory. Any visit to Prenzlauer Berg will be one full of history and shopping for some of the best deals in Germany. 

Inexpensive Eats in Prenzlauer Berg

While traveling through the storied streets and the high rising office towers that are home to Prenzlauer Berg, a traveler can build up a mighty appetite. With so many places to eat in Berlin, it's easy to find some really inexpensive diners and cafes, featuring some of the best German cuisine available.

A great place to refuel is a restaurant called The Bird Burger. For nineteen Euros, the hungry traveler can get a seven hundred and fifty gram burger. If you can manage to wolf down the whole thing, it will be on the house! If the hungry traveler’s eyes were bigger than their stomach, then only eight to nine Euros will be charged. That's very inexpensive for a great meal, and one that's very fast as well.

Another great place to eat cheaply is called A Sausage in the Garden. This restaurant is located right on the outskirts of Prenzlauer Berg, and offers some of the best bratwurst in all of Berlin.
