A by Adina Checks into Prime Spot on Berlin's Most Distinguished Shopping Avenue

BERLIN: TFE Hotels’ premium apartment hotel brand, A by Adina, continues its international expansion with the announcement of a 161-key property on Berlin’s most distinguished shopping avenue. Set to open in autumn 2027, the new-build A by Adina Berlin Kurfürstendamm will anchor the vibrant FÜRST urban quarter - offering design-led studios and apartments, alongside a world-class restaurant and bar and wellness facilities – in an area of Berlin renowned for its upscale shopping, dining, and vibrant atmosphere.

Today’s announcement follows the brand’s European debut in Vienna, which welcomed guests in April 2025, and builds on the success of A by Adina Sydney and A by Adina Canberra - which opened in Australia in 2021 as the flagships for the brand’s elevated apartment hotel experience. With more A by Adinas in the global pipeline, the brand is rapidly becoming synonymous with sophisticated stays blending the comfort of apartment living with premium hotel service and amenities, delivered in first rate locations.

While every A by Adina location has been thoughtfully chosen to blend seamlessly within its surroundings, there’s always a contemporary Australian twist at the heart of every stay. Architectural finishes and thoughtfully designed interiors are hallmarks, as is the intuitive service that allows corporate and lifestyle travellers to enjoy the best of the city on their terms. 

“A by Adina is redefining the apartment hotel category with premium hotels in standout locations,” said TFE Hotels’ CEO, Antony Ritch. “The new A by Adina Berlin Kurfürstendamm is in an incredible neighbourhood that puts our guests in the heart of the best retail the city has to offer.” 

Ritch said with each new opening, TFE Hotels was building momentum and delivering a curated experience that reflects the local culture while maintaining the brand’s signature brand touches.

“The new A by Adina will mark the brand’s debut in Germany and become TFE Hotels’ fourth property in Berlin – a city that also proudly hosts the award-winning innovation hub, MMNT Lab,” Ritch said. “The hotel is also  key addition to the FÜRST development, which is transforming the former Ku’damm-Karree into a dynamic hub for culture, hospitality, and commerce. 

“Guests will enjoy designer amenities and hotel services, combined with a laid-back Australian approach to hospitality that gives guests all the freedom and flexibility to enjoy their own stylish city pad for as little or as long as they like.”

“We are gathering great momentum with our A by Adina expansion which offers exciting new opportunities to connect clients with premium stays in iconic global locations,” Ritch said. “Whether it’s a city break in Vienna, hitting the shopping strip in Berlin, cultural escape in Canberra, or a sojourn in Sydney, A by Adina offers a refined home base for modern travellers.
