 On the corner of a busy junction in Berlin’s happening Mitte district stands an imposing late-Bauhaus building that has had several incarnations. It was a department store, the headquarters of the Hitler Youth and a repository for the archives of the former East Germany’s ruling Socialist Unity Party. It was also the home of a historical institute run by the Marxist state. These days, though, it’s home to the fabulous and well-heeled: the 82-year-old building has been acquired by the London-based Soho House Group for use as a private club but with guest rooms that can be booked by nonmembers. 

 The air-hockey table and hopscotch area in Soho House Berlin’s vast concrete and steel reception convey the kind of playful, informal welcome expected of a group that has long attracted members from the creative and media professions. But there’s also plenty of grownup amusement, from the Cowshed Relax Spa and a private cinema to the slick Club Floor, where hours are easily lost sipping cocktails in the embrace of the bar’s Bauhaus-era velvet sofas, or reclining by the rooftop pool on stylish loungers. 

[(See pictures of beards at Berlin fashion week.)](https://www.time.com/time/photogallery/0,29307,2002819,00.html) 

 The 40 guest rooms come in six sizes, the largest at 118 sq m. Textured, unfinished walls are offset with vintage-look furniture and unexpected amenities (the vinyl-record players and LPs are a delight). There are hints of Britishness here and there — tea and biscuits in the bedrooms, for example, and toiletries from Babington House, an affiliated property in the Somerset countryside — but by and large, designer Susie Atkinson’s vision remains true to period and place. 

 Rooms for nonmembers start from around $130 per night. See [sohohouseberlin.com](https://www.sohohouseberlin.com/) for more.
