Casa CamperUtilitarian design hotel
Spanish shoemaker Camper approaches hospitality with practical minimalism, swapping in-room minibars for an all-day rooftop snack lounge.
“The devilishly good-looking interior is defined by clean lines and striking furniture set against rust-red walls.”
What it’s good at
Remarkable
Utilitarian bedrooms with red Shaker peg rails sit above an eighteen-meter ombre counter.
Listed
A ground-floor market kitchen and bar opens directly onto Weinmeisterstraße pavement tables.
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in AFAR.
It brings the same youthful irreverence and unpretentious artiness to Berlin… The rooms and suites are stylish in a remarkably original way.
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Weinmeisterstraße station sits directly across the street, and Hackescher Markt is just around the corner.
The rooms
Translucent window blinds project room numbers to the street, and showers look out through floor-to-ceiling glass.
The gym and sauna
The gym has cardio machines and wood wall bars, and an illuminated Finnish cedar sauna sits right next door.
Restaurant
Bar Basta
Berlin pop-up Lobb runs the kitchen, serving seasonal European plates and cocktails behind wide curved corner windows.
At the table
Tentempié looks over the Berlin skyline through floor-to-ceiling windows, stocked with fresh juices, pastries, and an honesty bar.
How it began
Following its Barcelona debut, Camper commissioned a custom eight-story zinc building that opened in Mitte in 2009.

The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
