Arrival

  • Berlin is easily accessible by car, train, and plane. Below is an overview of the different ways to reach the Premier Inn Berlin Alexanderplatz:
  • By Car:
    Berlin is well connected to the German highway network via several autobahns (e.g., A10, A100). Directions within the city are clearly signposted. Parking is available near the hotel, though spaces may be limited and may require a fee.
  • By Train:
    Berlin is a major hub in the German and international rail network, served regularly by ICE, IC, and EC trains. Berlin Central Station is well connected to local public transport. From there, Alexanderplatz and the hotel can be reached quickly and easily via S-Bahn, U-Bahn, or taxi.
  • By Plane:
    The nearest airport is Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER). From the airport, Alexanderplatz is easily accessible by S-Bahn, regional train, or taxi.
  • Important Note:
    There is no parking available on campus. Participants are therefore strongly encouraged to use public transport or train travel. Berlin has an excellent public transportation network, allowing both the conference venue and hotel to be reached conveniently without a car.
