About MOA Berlin
More than just a hotel
MOA Berlin is more than just a hotel - as an urban hub, we combine accommodation, events, co-working, gastronomy and neighbourhood into a vibrant all-in-one space for international guests, Berlin locals and business communities.
Under our leitmotif „Congress, neighbourhood & culture“ the MOA Berlin becomes a dynamic place where people can work, network, celebrate and grow together. We combine international event excellence with genuine Moabit neighbourliness and a clear set of values. Because we believe in the power of personal encounters and their enriching effect on society. And this attitude gives us orientation, creates meaning and characterises every experience at MOA Berlin.
Our philosophy
What does MOA Berlin stand for?
The MOA Berlin is the most enriching temporary living space. Our enrichment lives from the fact that Congress, Neighbourhood and Culture come together perfectly.

Whether you are planning large congresses, holding creative meetings, working productively in the co-working area or looking for a place for a relaxing overnight stay between business and pleasure - we have the right room for you.
We think "Community instead of group": An open, appreciative atmosphere in which guests, locals and teams make genuine connections. As proud ambassadors, our motivated teams ensure that every experience remains authentic and has a long-term impact.

History & Development of MOA Berlin
Once upon a time
2008 - The end of the Paech bread factory
In 2008, the chimney of the Paech-Brot factory will be demolished as the last landmark of the former large bakery in Moabit.
2009 - Big building plans
The project company Woks, which includes shareholders of the former Wendeln bread factory, wants to build a four-storey district centre with retail, services, hotel and gastronomy on the site. The first floors of the building could be occupied at the end of next year.
2010 - The hotel building stands
Construction: the modern hotel building will open in 2010 with 196 rooms divided into four categories and a 1,600 m² atrium on the top floor.
2011 - Appointment as Best Western Premier
In March 2011, just a few months after its opening, the hotel, which belongs to a small, independent hotel group (Chapeau Hotels), was named Germany's best business hotel, although its offer is equally well suited to leisure guests.
2016 - Hotel MOA Berlin
Since 1 January 2016, the hotel has presented itself under a new franchise brand and shines in a new look as Hotel MOA Berlin. The background to the brand change was the aim to get a strong brand and experienced partner at the side, who supports the hotel in strengthening its orientation and positioning in the MICE/convention segment and to grow continuously there.
2019 - rebranding & strong growth trajectory
In 2019, the management - together with the hotel management team and the newly created marketing department - decided to develop a strong mission and overarching vision for the hotel group and MOA Berlin in particular in a strategy process lasting several months with the support of two external brand and management consultants. As a result, the individual service brands MOA STAY, MOA MEET, MOA EAT AND MOA WORK were created as independent service areas and thus separate profit areas, which have ensured clarity and a clear brand promise both structurally and operationally.

2026 - The MOA Berlin becomes an independent hotel
At the beginning of 2026, MOA Berlin is consistently going its own way: after15 years ago, MOA Berlin broke away from the franchise and officially launched as an independent brand. The decision in favour of independence is an expression of a clear ambition - more entrepreneurial freedom, faster decision-making processes and a stronger focus on its own identity as one of the capital's largest conference hotels.
MOA Berlin is thus consciously taking a bold step and investing every euro where it will have a long-term impact - in brand, technology, community and genuine entrepreneurial freedom.
The positioning no longer envisages a classic hotel, but a new urban hub for events, work, stay and eat. With the promise „Congress, neighbourhood & culture“ MOA Berlin combines international event excellence with genuine Moabit neighbourliness and a clear set of values - authentic, approachable, fit for the future.
