They're in the same building. Panorama Bar is open on Fridays and Saturdays and Berghain is only open on Saturdays and occasional Thursdays.
They’re like no other clubs in the world. They open at midnight, don't get going until 5am, and close at around 2pm on Saturday/8pm on Sunday.
Pano is friendly, social and quite mixed gay/straight, Berghain is mostly gay and much more hardcore; there's a kind of 'heaven and hell' split.
The regular DJs are always good and there’s usually a star on the roster (recent ones include Miss Kittin, Erol Alkan, Andy Weatherall). Dress code is clubby. The bouncers won't let you in if they don't like the look of you. Entry is 8€ Friday/10€ Saturday, and worth it.
Behind Ostbahnhof. Every taxi driver in Berlin only has to hear the words 'Panorama Bar' to zip off in the right direction.
