Hotel offers East German experience

June 22, 2007 By Leave a Comment

A hotel in Berlin is offering the chance to experience a piece of East-German life.

“Ostel” gives its visitors some idea of what life was like under communisim, and is located within a typical “Plattenbau”.

With prices starting at 9EUR per Person (in a shared room), this also looks like being a good place for visitors on a low-budget to go, who can save and take in a bit of nostalgia at the same time. It is located near the Ostbahnhof in the Wriezener Karree.

Read the full story on the BBC News website or visit the Ostel homepage.

Hotel Katharinenhof (Bad Homburg)

May 2, 2007 By Leave a Comment

This hotel is outside of Bad Homburg in a part of the town called “Ober-Erlenbach”. It is reachable by bus (Nos. 2, 12 & 22), and is situated in the old-part of Ober-Erlenbach.

Particularly for visitors on business, this can be a welcome place to stay away from the centre. There are still sufficient facilities (restaurants, supermarket, …) within walking distance.

For more information, visit the homepage.

Hotel “Zum Taunus” (Wehrheim)

April 28, 2007 By Leave a Comment

If you’re prepared to stay even further out of Frankfurt, then Hotel “Zum Taunus” is the other hotel I used when I was flat hunting.

Wehrheim is reachable using the Taunusbahn.  Some trains go through to Frankfurt, others end in Bad Homburg where you can change to the S-Bahn.  By road it is easily reached using the B456.
For more information, visit the Wehrheim homepage or call direct on +49 6081 5168.
