Berlin could tempt stag party revellers

People planning to take a stag weekend in Europe without breaking the bank this year might be tempted by the prospect of spending a few nights in Berlin.

The German capital has posted record visitor numbers for the last five consecutive years as its reputation as "a cheap, yet cool" destination continues to attract the crowds, Agence France-Presse reports.

Berlin is home to a host of world-famous clubs such as Berghain and attracts a young crowd determined to make the most of the city's pumping nightlife - making it ideal for stag parties looking for a night on the tiles.

The range of low-cost flights to the city run by Ryanair and easyJet also makes it cheap to get to, while revellers can take advantage of a plethora of affordable hotels that provide ample accommodation.

According to research by Hotels.com, Berlin is among the most popular destinations for holidaymakers looking to make their pounds stretch a little further this year, with the city ranking as one of the top ten places where tourists can get more luxury for their travel budget.
