House of Weekend

High above the rooftops of Berlin-Mitte, the House of Weekend sits enthroned on the former Haus des Reisens at Alexanderplatz. The 83-meter-high rooftop terrace offers arguably the most direct view of the TV Tower that a bar in Berlin has to offer. Club nights with a skyline panorama, that's the promise of this place.

House of Weekend: Berlin’s Most Famous Rooftop Bar above Alexanderplatz

Anyone who has ever climbed the stairs to the House of Weekend’s rooftop on a summer evening immediately understands why this place has been a top address among Berlin’s bars with panoramic views for years. Since 2007, the 320-square-meter rooftop terrace at a height of 83 meters has been part of the House of Weekend. The view of the Berlin skyline and directly onto the TV Tower is not a bonus, but the actual experience. The club features several levels, including the 15th floor and the expansive rooftop terrace, which is a real hotspot during the summer months. Particularly noteworthy: A highlight of the rooftop bar is the 37-meter-long counter with six bar stations. This is not just a bar; it’s an infrastructure.

Music, Atmosphere, and Berlin Nightlife at the Highest Level

As impressive as the panoramic view is during the day, the House of Weekend truly knows how to turn it into a real club night. Changing DJs play music from various genres, including R&B, Hip-Hop, Afro, and Latin. An integrated surround sound system with 26 speakers provides rich sound at a height of 83 meters. If you want to enjoy the rooftop terrace with a view of Alexanderplatz, you should keep an eye on the weather forecast: On warm summer days, the rooftop terrace sometimes opens as early as 19:00. A note for the ascent: The rooftop is only accessible via stairs; the elevator goes up to the 15th floor. So, make sure to wear good shoes and enjoy the Berlin night from above.
