Frommer's "This hotel boasts that it is a "home for artists"... Clients from the arts, media, and even the political or business world are drawn to this unusual hostelry." Full review
Concierge "This is a stylish place, yet it has something to offer even the most cost-conscious traveler: The cheapest accommodations are plain rooms on the top floor with a shared bath."
Fodor's "The Luise is one of Berlin's most original boutique hotels, with each fantastically creative room in the 1825 building or 2003 built-on wing—facing the Reichstag—styled by a different artist." Full review
Insight Guides "Close to the main train station, it is in an ideal location and is a one-of-a-kind experience."
Lonely Planet "At this 'gallery with rooms' each unit is designed by different artists who receive royalties whenever it’s rented." Full review

Avoid those facing the train tracks.
DK Eyewitness "The 30 rooms in this small hotel were all individually and imaginatively designed by different local artists, with themes ranging from loud pop art to classic Modernism."
Time Out "Housed in a former neoclassical residential palace just a short walk from the Reichstag and Brandenburger Tor, this ‘artist home’ is one of the city’s more imaginative small hotels." Full review
Rough Guide "Each room here is an eccentric, and impressive, work of art: one comes with bananas all over the walls and hot-pink velvet bedding, while another is Alice in Wonderland-themed."
Gayot "Visitors have dubbed the Arte Luise Kunsthotel as 'a gallery where you can spend the night.'."
Travel + Leisure "What began in 2008 as an “art lab” in a palatial (but condemned) 1825-vintage residential building has evolved into a livable museum-cum-hotel near Berlin’s government district." Full review

Oyster Mid-Range
"The Michelberger Hotel is a trendy, budget-friendly option set in a former warehouse in the Friedrichshain neighborhood." Full review
Time Out "With its purposefully boutique industrial look and buzzing creative feel, Michelberger might seem like Berlin in a nutshell to some." Full review
i
Some of the rooms are quite noisy, so you might want to request a room facing the courtyard.
Rough Guide Star
"Modern, trendy and urbane, this relaxed haunt with its cool warehouse-style interior provides anything but workaday accommodation."
Travel + Leisure "Unlike a lot of self-consciously funky hotels around the world, the Michelberger is genuinely cool." Full review
BlackBook "Strategically located for travelers with nocturnal itineraries, equidistant from Berlin’s most notorious nightclubs (Berghain, Watergate, Bar 25, etc.)."
