XXL
XXL is my choice as the best gay kino arcade in Berlin. If you are staying in West Berlin it is a bit of a trip-25 mins from Zoo Station, but well worth it. The entrance is a porno shop that rents and sells gay DVD. You tell the man at the counter you want to go to the Kino and pay there. It varies from 6 to 8 euros depending on the time of day. Make sure you keep your ticket, since this allows you re-entry all day. Also you can check your coat and any bags for free with him. The complex consists of 16 booths throughout 3 different areas, plus a lounge/play area with slings and couches. Once you pay the films are free in all the booths, you just change the channel. Some guys sit in the booth with the door open. They are looking for contact or one-on-one. Others just sit on the couches that are placed throughout the kino and hop up when someone appeals to them. Anything goes here. You can also strip down to BVDs or go naked if you like. There are private lockers in the small entrance foyer to the arcade. Duplexx kino arcade is on the same street, about 10 blocks away, so many guys go back and forth between the two. Plus there is a MacDonalds half way between the two which is a cheap place to stop for a snack. There are also two drink machines thet serve beer and soda plus a cooler in the store with beer and soft drinks. The beer is cheaper than in the bars, it's just two euros.

Schonhauser Allee 98, Berlin 03-32-898-222 Wheelchair: No / While the complex is all on one level with no steps…
The guide
Where exactly
Take U Bahn line 2 towards Pankow. The stop is the same as the street-Schonhauser Allee . As you exit the train stay to your right to leave the station, cross to the left onto Schonhauser Allee. Keep right for about 6 blocks.
Cruisiest spot: While there is action everywhere, the favorite spot of many is in the second area where the booths are very large. There they are big enough to accomadate 6 or 7 people. Often when the crowd is small all the guys converge here.
When to go
Daily from noon to 3am. Best times: It can be hit or miss at anytime, but i find the mid afternoons, between 3pm and 5pm to be busy. Also early evenings 8pm-10pm are busy.
Etiquette
You will get the best results when you are in the booth and fully hard playing with yourself-dont be shy.
Nudity: Anything goes here.
