DTV - Classification

Reach for the stars!

The offer of holiday flats, houses and private rooms in Germany is large. What makes the guest's descision easier? Simple as it is: the stars!

More than 50,000 holiday flats, houses and rooms were categorised and have received DTV-stars with which they are advertised in accomodation brochures, catalogues and in the internet with the assurance that their quality has been checked.

Dear hosts in Berlin,

Use the possibility to have your accomodation checked and evaluated objectively and autonomously. The classification shows the guest the quality your accomodation  - something which will pay off when your accomodation will be booked by satisfied guests.

Our colleagues at the Tourist-Information centre will be glad to inform you and will - on request - classify your object. Please contact us for terms and conditions here.
