When you want something cosy:
1) 'Das Hotel': Well, to be more precise, the little candlelit, limestone-walled club under the 'Hotel.'I went there last weekend, and it really didn't feel like being in Berlin. This lovely John Lennon and Yoko One lookalike-couple were DJing, mainly early 60's soul music, and the combination of the music and the exchange students conversing in Spanish and everyone dancing felt very European without being tied geographically to one location. Kind of like being in a hotel! (Article in German)
When you want a 'club' atmosphere:
2) 'Week End': So, this past weekend (har har), instead of going to an overcrowded Erasmus party (Ed. Note: ERASMUS is a European university exchange system that allows students from all over Europe to 'study' [i.e. party] anywhere in Europe], I went to Week End with a friend and some Americans we had met. Week End is on the 12th floor of the former Haus des Reisens, and it's got an amazing view of East Berlin and the Alexanderplatz. Week End is a little bit Circa (i.e. expensive to get into), but the music is electronic heaven and you can watch the sun rise over the Fernsehturm if you're so inclined :P
