Berlin is incredibly vegan-friendly and usually ranks in the top vegan friendly cities worldwide, but sadly since Hotel Almodovar closed down, it no longer has any 100% veggie or vegan hotels. However, it does have some vegan friendly hotel options!
Berlin has often been called the vegan capital of Europe or the world. (Although London now has more vegan restaurants than Berlin so it’s getting a run for its money.)
It won’t surprise you, then, that Berlin is home to a few vegetarian and vegan friendly hotels and hostels. As a vegan since 2008, I’ve had the pleasure of staying in a few fully vegan hotels and B&Bs, as well as staying in some vegan-friendly hotels that serve vegan breakfast, and it does make travel much easier. Having been vegan so long, until I stayed in a vegan hotel a few years ago, I’d almost forgotten what it’s like to wake up in a hotel and be able to eat at the breakfast buffet, but it certainly makes mornings much easier.
If you’re looking for the best vegan hotels Berlin has, you’re in the right place! I’ve put together a list of the best vegan, vegetarian and vegan-friendly places to stay in Berlin.
Best Vegan-Friendly & Vegan Hotels in Berlin
Numa I Boxer Rooms and Apartments
Located on the former site of Almodovar Hotel (which was the only all-vegetarian hotel in Berlin) is Numa I Boxer. Whilst it’s sadly not all veggie like Almodovar Hotel, they do have vegan options on the breakfast buffet.
If you’re looking for a comfortable stay in a hotel with well-equipped standard rooms, each guest room here has its own bathroom, air conditioning and fridge, while some also have balconies and dining areas.
As it’s located in Freidrichshein, this guest house is well-located for vegan amenities. Freidrichshein is a very vegan-friendly and trendy neighbourhood, and you’ll be within walking distance to lots of vegan eateries, including less than 2 minutes from Kamala Vegan, an all-vegan Chinese restaurant. It’s a perfect area to stay in when you visit Berlin.
Arcotel Berlin
Arcotel is a vegan-friendly small chain of hotels in Germany and Austria. Most of their branches serve vegan options at breakfast, including the Arcotel Berlin, which serves vegan breakfast options at the buffet every morning.
The Arcotel John F Berlin is really well-located four-star hotel, just a quick five minute walk from Museum Island in Mitte in the historic city center. It’s also a quick 5-minute walk from the nearest metro station. Public transportation in Berlin is easy to use and reliable, so this is a perfect place to use as your base to explore Berlin.
Each hotel room has free wifi and a flatscreen TV, and the hotel has a spa and gym overlooking the hotel courtyard.

FAQ
Why stay in a vegan hotel?
Having vegan breakfast at your fingertips means not having to forage for a plant-based meal first thing every day. Plus, some hotels have a vegan-friendly restaurant; a restaurant on site means if you don’t feel like going out for dinner you don’t have to (though in Berlin, you’re probably going to want to go out!).
Choosing the most vegan-friendly non-vegan hotel
If you want to stay in a vegan place, but can’t stay in a 100% vegan hotel, then I always recommend booking near vegan restaurants, especially ones that serve breakfast if possible.
Breakfast is always the trickiest meal of the day to find vegan in my experience since many vegetarian and vegan restaurants don’t open until lunchtime, and most restaurants don’t seem to serve up many vegan breakfast options.
Berlin is the city of brunch (seriously, the city takes brunch seriously and is awash in spots serving up big brunch buffets every weekend), so take a look at a list of the best vegan breakfasts (like this one) and book nearby.
Or, you might want to get an apart-hotel with a kitchen so you can prepare breakfast, or at least get some muesli and a carton of oat milk to keep in the fridge.
If your hotel has a mini bar, you can also stash your non-dairy milk in the minibar fridge and have breakfast in your room in a pinch. Though as I mentioned, Berlin is the city of brunch, so better yet, find a vegan brunch spot near you!
