The Park Inn Berlin is the tallest multistory building in Berlin.

The 41-floor hotel is on Alexanderplatz and has a height of 132 meters. It was built as the Hotel Stadt Berlin, part of East Germany's Interhotel organization, from 1967 to 1970. In the utmost floor there is a casino and panorama restaurant. In 1993, after German reunification, it was renamed Forum Hotel Berlin. Plans to rebuild Alexanderplatz suggested the hotel would be demolished. While this is now extremely unlikely, the plans have not been officially abandoned.

The hotel was taken over by the Park Inn hotel group in 2003 and renamed. In 2005 the entire façade was replaced.
