When to go
Best time
Morning, Mid-day, Late afternoon
Because there isn't any landscape in your shot, you can photograph the rainbow façade of the Meininger Hotel Berlin Airport during any month.
Morning, midday and late afternoon will produce similar lighting conditions. In my personal opinion, I like shooting here midday when the strong sunlight reflects on the structure, which will make the technicolored architecture pop a bit more.
Field tips
I recommend using a wide-angle lens (11mm) to capture the façade of the building. If your lens is too narrow, you won't be able to photograph the entire scene.
Make sure to incorporate the sky in your shot, which will create a beautiful contrast against the rainbow building.
Either bring along a few friends or wait until a few passerby walk through your frame. Having people in your shot will add a sense of scale.
Check every corner of the building for varying perspectives. Play around with the leading lines and shapes of the structure and see what other compositions you can create.
A telephoto lens would also work amazing here. Get closer to the building and shoot the interception of lines and different geometric shapes that you can find along the building.

Do nearby
If you want to see or photograph the nearby planes taking off, then I recommend checking out the hotel's rooftop.
Visit Landschaftspark Rudow-Altglienicke or Coloniapark for a lesiurely stroll in either park.
