Geoff, the weather should be very good.

I had a great small guide of fold out maps - I don't have it with me at the
moment so can't give you a link to it on Amazon - but I ended up using it
more than the Rough Guide that I already had.

I stayed in the Eastern Berlin district of 'Mitte' at the Hotel Jurine -
difficult to forget the name for an English speaker <grin>. They have a web
site...

...but it was cheaper to book via Expedia. I've stayed there twice and I'll
stay there the next time I go to Berlin. The only downer was the expensive
breakfast, but there was a superb Italian caf? virtually next door.

Mitte is quite lively at night. Lots of bars, cafes and restaurants. Berlin
was a surprise hit, I enjoyed it a lot more than I was expecting to.
Certainly I'd go there again.

Some piccies here...
