S Bahn - U Bahn

I am looking forward to going to Berlin for the first time in two weeks time. I keep reading on forums about certain hotels being next to the S Bahn or the U Bahn stations... what is the difference between these train lines?

Hi,



U-Bahn is a subway while S-Bahn is a local railway. You can use both with the same ticket. U-Bahn operates only in the city (mainly in the western part) while S-Bahn also goes to some destinations in Brandenburg (like Potsdam). In the East there are also some trams.
