Hotel Berlin '43 is a 1943 novel by Vicki Baum, set in a luxury Berlin hotel during World War II, serving as a microcosm of Nazi society with a cast of Gestapo agents, Nazi officials, and anti-Nazis. The plot follows a 24-hour period, focusing on characters like actress Lisa Dorn and a fugitive, Martin Richter, as they navigate the fear, intrigue, and danger of the war-torn city, with the story echoing themes from Baum's earlier hit, Grand Hotel. The book was adapted into a 1945 film.
