It got also quite nice view to the Berlin city center, if you like to see like see the whole center, this sure is a good spot. The station is also very close to the S-Bahnhof Warschauer Straße, if you need to change to this station, just need to walk about 3-5 mins, then you will reach the platform. If you like trains, here is a great spot to see the trains and railways. Inside and around the station have many different shops and restaurants. If you need something to drink or eat before you get on the train (or after), it is quite convenient to do so. Because of all the construction going around the S-Bahnhof, for awhile already. This area does look pretty messy to me. And you could see graffiti and some rubbishes everywhere, the street also seem quite dirty. It is not a good impression actually. It made the station a bit ugly. it's always full people here. They a got a small parking for bikes, but isn't big enough, so you could see bikes locks up everywhere as well. Hopefully the station will be better after the renovation.

    The station itself is under renovations at the moment (Oct 2012) and there is no kiosk at the…read moremoment which is quite absurd. However, it serves my favourite underground line in Berlin (U1) which provides the best east-west connection in the city centre.

    One of the most impressive things about German cities and Berlin is no exception to this, is the…read moreefficient and plentiful provision of public transport options Berlin is criss-crossed by well signposted and organised Deutsche Bahn railway trains, U-Bahn subway trains, S-Bahn psuedo-subway trains, trams and buses. These run reliably, are clean and run on an integrated ticketing zonal fare system. You can buy tickets for journeys within or across the fare zones (A to C), either for single journeys or as a daily travel cards and these cover all modes of transport. Just remember to validate your tickets for travel at the little validation machines on the platform The next most impressive thing about German public transport is the honesty of the travelling public. I was surprised and then shocked to find that you can just stroll onto the train platforms with passing any ticket barriersand watching travellers, people do pay for tickets. Perhaps to London's shame, I'm fairly sure that if there were no ticket barriers, a significant number of passengers would abuse the system. Some already try to do so despite the presence of ticket barriers Ostkreuz is a major interchange for a lot of S-Bahn services located in the eastern end of town. It provides another way to get to Berlin Schoenefeld Airport via the S9 line. You just need to locate the correct platform from which your service is departing and the departure boards are quite clear There are a few eateries but no toilet (I had to hold it a little til I got to the airport!). There are customer service agents with red hats to help customers but they weren't particularly helpful with regard to toilet facilities! Despite this, the station was a model of German efficiency - who needs the private sector to suck out last amounts of taxpayers' subsidy if the public sector can run such an efficient transport system?

    Folks unfamiliar with the German transport system probably fall in love with it instantly. Trains…read morerun on time, busses are considerably clean, trams are modern, and subways are a vital part of every big city. This is especially true for Berlin. Public transport gets you anywhere. At Bahnhof Ostkreuz ("East cross") all the city trains (S-Bahn) come together. It is one of four major stations (Suedkreuz, Gesundbrunnen, Hauptbahnhof) and it has been re-constructed for years. It now has a full-size roof which protects you from wind and rain, some food options, and large escalators that connect the North/South-bound and the East/West-bound platforms. I remember the good old days in the 1980's when Ostkreuz was one of the bigger transit hubs in East Berlin, with the best currywurst outside the station. Now I believe there's a Doner Kebab place, among plenty of food and drink options in the neighborhood.

    Brandenburger Tor is one of the nicer metro stations I visited on my trip to Berlin, as you can…read moretell with the name it serves the Brandenburger Tor which is basically the Brandenburg Gate which is one of the main and key attractions in Berlin. It is located on the U55 line which is quite useful for connections into Bundestag and Berlin Central Station, the overall journey across the line from Brandenburger Tor to the Hauptbanhof (Central Station) is 8 minutes and as I recall, this is the only line this station is on, meaning most likely you're going to have to visit another train station to change, being one of those two, to get the metro into Brandenburger Tor, perhaps because of this, it might just be easier to get the bus as I found to be easier when traveling from my Hotel. I called at this station by chance, hoping to get into Central Station so I used the U55 line to go the full length of the train route which is 8 minutes. There did appear to be one end of the station cornered off, which probably was the place you would get off the train for the U55 here at Brandenburger Tor, so they appeared to be turning and using the other plaform for some reason. This metro station did also seem bright and modern, it didn't seem old, dark and smelly like some trains on the network and also had lift access, warranting a solid three star rating which is supported by the location being meters away from the Brandenburg Gate. 3 star rating due to reasons discussed above, sadly I don't feel it is worth any higher as the station remains understaffed and of course it is only on the U55 line.

    I first visited Berlin in the early 1980s, and when the wall was up. During my visit, I had the…read moreopportunity to ride the West Berlin S-bahn, which traveled in part under East Berlin and through the ghost stations or Geisterbahnhof . I remember the train slowing down through a brightly lit and empty station, except for an East German guard or two.. I still vividly remember the green tiles line the walls of the Unter den Linden (not Brandenburger Tor) station. I had the opportunity to return to the Brandenburger Tor station last year. I was walking down the Unter den Linden and heading towards the Brandenburg gate, where this time I could freely walk through unlike the Berlin Wall days. The station came into view in front of me and I immediately knew that I had been here before (albeit in passing underground). I walked downstairs, walked through the corridors and touched those green tiles. That's quite a reminder of what was and how walls could happen again.

    Schlesisches Tor is one of the poorer stops I used on the Berlin Metro, during my time in the…read moreGerman Capital. It is on the U1 line only, so chances are to get where you want to go, you may have to get on another tube perhaps at a station, which is on more lines. I have to start by saying the configuration of this station, only being on one line (U1) when many other stations are at least on two is disappointing. Overall as a Station, Schlesisches Tor seemed to be highly old fashioned, and even dirty and unkept with lots of homeless people hanging around the station and a high amount of graffiti, so overall it wasn't very pleasant at all. It is located fairly close to the Berlin Wall East Side Gallery so the location overall is okay if you want to see the real Berlin wall, as I recall there is around 1.6km of it still standing. The station didn't appear to have lift access, and if it did, the lift certainly was well-hidden as it does state lift access on the map, despite there being no signs for this etc. Overall, Schlesisches Tor is a poor metro station in most regards, probably one of the worst on the networks I've visited mainly down to the routes this station is located on, overall feel and cleanliness and accessibility, hence sadly warranting a single one-star rating.

    Schlesisches Tor is a little worse for the wear, but it's still home station to me. There's nothing…read morequite like the sound or the sight of those trains coming around the bend. Every time I witness it, I grow a little bit more fond of Berlin.
