Landfolk – the best address for architectural vacation homes

January 14, 2024

The young Danish start-up Landfolk offers vacation homes with that little bit extra. The houses, 70% of which can be booked exclusively there, are lovingly selected by the host experts based on four criteria and lovingly furnished by the hosts. Guests should feel comfortable and relaxed from the very first second. Landfolk offers the houses in Germany, Denmark, Sweden and Norway. The company’s aim is to lure people from urban regions into nature and highlight its beauty with a cozy hostel to make their vacation perfect. Aesthetics and quality are a top priority in order to make vacation home guests completely happy.

Offers and booking process at Landfolk

You can choose from houses that no one else has access to – away from the mainstream booking platforms. Cute, small Swedish houses that are picturesquely situated in the middle of nature and offer pure tranquillity. The Kalmar vacation home in Vejby with its large grounds, tall trees and plenty of outdoor space with a barbecue and hot tub is an ideal example of this. Landfolk offers bright, light-flooded houses in idyllic regions with plenty of potential for relaxation and recreation as well as individually selected domiciles with attention to detail and great views. These include the vacation home with a fantastic view of Vejle Fjord in Denmark or the elegant house with a sea view in the bay of Sejero. Thanks to numerous window fronts, guests feel like they are right next to the sea.

Once you have found your favorite at Landfolk, send a booking request with the possible travel dates and the number of holidaymakers or book directly if available. Bookings that are confirmed immediately are also payable immediately afterwards. Houses that have to be requested only become payable after final confirmation. To help guests plan their upcoming stay, they will receive a Landfolk guide from their host before their arrival. This contains all the information they need to know and tips for excursions in the surrounding area to make the most of their vacation.

What distinguishes Landfolk from other providers?

Landfolk’s unique selling point is not only its lovingly furnished houses, but also the travel price, which is guaranteed to include everything. Guests do not have to pay extra for final cleaning, additional costs or insurance. Another advantage is the very flexible travel days. While other vacation home providers usually require Saturday as the arrival and departure day and are happy to charge extra for deviations, at Landfolk the guests alone decide when they come and go. This means that trips can also be booked during the week or for just a few days – an absolute plus point.

Holidays on the Moselle – The Perfect Weekend

June 5, 2020

Mosel, Moselschleife, Landal GreenPark, Moselle, Deutschland,

The Moselle, also known as one of the most impressive river landscapes in Europe, is one of the most popular holiday destinations in Germany. It’s a site that both the younger and older generations can enjoy!

Idyllic wine villages, a multitude of hiking trails with a view of the stunning vineyards, wineries and countless rustic restaurants with a great selection of wines, as well as the tasty home-style cooking and the varied sports programme make for an unforgettable short trip to the Moselle! Of course, I have summarized exactly what you can do on a weekend or a long weekend like Whitsun or Corpus Christi, so you don’t miss out on anything.

Where to stay?

The Landal GreenPark Mont Royal really lives up to its motto “My holiday in the countryside”. The holiday park surrounded by forest with its contemporary-style architecture really did it for us! We, obviously, went to the open holiday park Landal GreenPark Mont Royal over Whitsuntide, but we didn’t have any great expectations, as holiday parks often get old.

When entering our modern 6-bed house, I had to pause for a while and think about our Tiny House in Estonia, our apartment in Australia, and the Nordic interior decoration! The stylish furnishing with sophisticated interior design is simply impressive. Also, the houses in the park are very much the “Insta Houses.” Extremely photogenic!

The accommodations are not just a pretty sight, they have almost everything that you‘ll need! Many even have a Nespresso machine. You can find out more about this before your arrival. Think about the kitchen basics like salt, pepper, oil, and an outdoor grill!

If you are missing anything, you can always ask at the reception desk. The friendly, courteous staff will be happy to help you! A walk to the reception is always worthwhile, as there are goats, a restaurant, a miniature golf course, and a playground to look out for.

We spent a lot of time at our house. In the mornings, we had big breakfasts on the terrace, sometimes indoors, and in the evenings we saw beautiful sunsets with a glass of wine and a round of wizard.

But there are a lot of leisure activities in the surroundings that you can go for!

What to do?

Hiking Trails:

Kröv -Traben – Trarbach

On our first day on the Moselle, we set off with the dogs from our house in the Landal Mont Royal Park in Kröv to Traben-Trarbach.

The approx. 4.5km long hike offers great views and promises some exciting surprises along the way!

It takes only 5 minutes to cross the former fortress of Mont Royal and through the walls of the fortress to the forest paths that lead you directly to the gliding airfield “Mont Royal”. Here, one can watch how several gliders take off! It was a real highlight of the trip for me, as I‘ve never seen how it works. Those who want can also have something to eat or drink in the appendant inn.

From here, we continue to Traben-Trarbach. After another 15 minutes through the forest, you will be surprised with a wonderful view over a Moselle valley, followed by numerous vineyards and a great view of the village of Traben-Trarbach.

After the approx. one-hour hike, we treated ourselves to a delicious wine spritzer right on the Moselle.

Calmont Klettersteig

The Calmont Klettersteig was one of my most adventurous experiences; not only because I flew my drone into a tree, but also because of its narrow paths.

Don’t worry! It is not really dangerous. Height may be an issue because the path next to the hiking trail dips into a steep slope. However, after the 3 kilometers and 400 meters of altitude difference, you will be rewarded with a breathtaking view over the Mosel loop! If you don’t like to go that far, you can stop after 5-10 minutes and enjoy the view from there.

By the way, the Calmont is known as the steepest vineyard in Europe! So, do not forget to put on non-slip hiking boots.

Bernkastel-Kues

In the many stories that I read, Bernkastel-Kues was named the most beautiful town on the Moselle. I can only confirm this! Especially breathtaking were the historic market place and the beautiful half-timbered facades that the romantic old town boasts. Here, you will find many cafés, restaurants and shops.

A little tip: Try to come here on a Friday or during the week. On weekends and public holidays, it can get quite crowded.

Abenteuer Pur:

Pure Adventure

The Moselle Adventure Forest is only 5 minutes walk from the Landal GreenPark Mont Royal. Unfortunately, it was closed during our visit, but it impressed me so much that I have to tell you about it! I have seen some climbing parks in the past, but I have never seen anything like it!

Hanging Rope Bridge Geierlay

Have your ever had the chance to go over a hanging rope bridge? So if you are around, don’t forget to check it out! The 360m long bridge is for nobody with fear of heights! Crossing the bridge is a real adventure! But for now, check the website to see when you can cross it and from which direction. Due to corona measures you cannot cross it at any time as usual.

Übernachten wie Bill Clinton oder Ana Johnson im Steigenberger Grandhotel & Spa Petersberg

November 11, 2019

Steigenberger, Petersberg, Das Steigenberger Grandhotel & Spa auf dem Petersberg, Fasten Ur Seatbelts

The Steigenberger Grandhotel & Spa on the Petersberg has been known for years as the former guest house of the Federal Government. In the middle of the Siebengebirge, not only celebrities like Bill Clinton or Nelson Mandela were once guests here, but recently the successful blogger Ana Johnson too! Last weekend we were able to get an impression of the exclusive hotel on the Petersberg, which only recently reopened after two years of renovation.

The Hotel

Before I tell you about the 103 stylishly furnished rooms and the 9 spacious suites, I don’t want to miss out on depicting the idyllic scenery on our approach to the Petersberg. Already from here you have an enormous view of nature and the Rhine Valley.

Once you arrive at the top, you can feel the peculiarity of the hotel at first hand. You don’t just drive along the entrance to an exclusive five-star hotel, but a castle-like building that receives you accordingly.

Under a bright blue sky, we could check-in directly in our Rheinblick Suite. By the way, here, the name stands for its true meaning. For me, the view was particularly so special, because I could also see my home from up there.

In our spacious room, we missed out on nothing. Also, our French Bulldog, Chuck, enjoyed the spacious area very much.

Pure relaxation is offered by the very comfortable box springboard and the pillow menu. But if you need even more relaxation, you can visit the modern spa area. My absolute favourite was the fitness room with the latest Technogym equipment.

All sports fans can, of course, relax directly in the sauna, the indoor pool, or simply in the relaxation room with a view of the Rhine.

Restaurant

Absolute relaxation, can, of course, never be complete without a special kitchen. Already in the morning, you get everything your heart desires with a great view on the Rhine. In summer, you can sit on a beautiful outdoor terrace and savour the fresh delicacies.

At least once you should try the kitchen of the star chef Anthony Sarpong. We were not only impressed by the unique and remarkably delicious dishes, but also by the local wine accompaniment. If you like, you can even visit the winegrowers at the nearby winery the next day, and take back a souvenir with you.

The extremely attractive cuisine is also offered at festivities in the hotel, especially in summer, the hotel hosts a large number of weddings in the beautiful banqueting halls. Here, every bride gets 100%, a fairytale wedding!

Location

Only recently, the Lonely Planet ranked the city of Bonn 5^th, among the best travel cities in the year 2020. So, if you are planning a city trip to Bonn, you can enjoy the proximity to the centre of Bonn and nature in the Hotel Steigenberger on the Petersberg.

However, it is not a must to leave the Petersberg on a short weekend trip. The Petersberg offers a variety of hiking trails right in front of the door! But if you still want to explore the Siebengebirge, I’d recommend to drive to the parking lot of the Drachenfels and hike from there to the Drachenburg.

On the 30-minute way to the top, you will pass some rustic restaurants, the castle Drachenburg and some donkeys, which make the ascent easier for some.

From Cologne Bonn Airport, it takes only 25 – 35 minutes (depending on the traffic situation) to get to the hotel.

Conclusion

Do you want to visit this fabulous hotel?

Then have a look at our website. Even if you don’t live far from the Steigenberger Hotel Petersberg like me, it’s still worth escaping everyday life and just relaxing. It was certainly not my last time at the Steigenberger Grandhotel & Spa Petersberg!

48 hours in Dresden – Travel Guide to Dresden

August 8, 2019

Dresden, Fasten Ur Seatbelts, Travel Guide, Steigenberger Hotel

When it comes to travelling, why go so far when you have so many great places nearby! Berlin, Munich, and Hamburg are the most famous cities for a city break in Germany. However, I keep writing and telling everyone that Germany has so much more to offer. Last year, I was in Heidelberg and gave an account of it. This summer took me to Dresden. I am still going back and forth from the baroque Old Town on the Elbe. A visit to Dresden offers a diverse range of activites, since not only culture enthusiasts but also shopping lovers will get their money’s worth!

Warum soll man eigentlich so weit verreisen, wenn man so viele tolle Orte in der Nähe hat! Berlin, München und Hamburg sind die bekanntesten Städte für einen Städtetrip in Deutschland. Allerdings schreibe ich immer wieder, dass Deutschland so viel mehr zu bieten hat! Letztes Jahr war ich erst in Heidelberg und habe darüber berichtet. Diesen Sommer hat es mich nach Dresden verschlagen! Ich bin immer noch hin und weg von der barocken Altstadt an der Elbe! Ein Besuch in Dresden ist super abwechslungsreich, da nicht nur Kulturbegeisterte, sondern auch Shoppingliebhaber voll auf Ihre Kosten kommen!

How to get to Dresden

Many roads lead to Dresden as well as to almost all places in the world. If you live in Germany, you should consider the distance based on the faced whether the person is traveling by car, train, or plane. We flew from Cologne, which was very pleasant. The flight does not even take an hour, and the small airport in Dresden makes the arrival and departure totally easy. The central station is, of course, central and is approached by almost all major cities within Germany. Of course, you can also consider whether you want to travel by bus rather than by car.

For all those living outside of Germany, I would always recommend taking the flight path. If there is no direct flight to Dresden, you can also drive from or to Dresden within 2 hours.

Auch nach Dresden führen wie zu fast allen Orten auf der Welt viele Wege. Wer in Deutschland wohnt, sollte anhand der Entfernung abwägen, ob er mit dem Auto, der Bahn oder dem Flugzeug anreist. Wir sind von Köln aus geflogen, was total angenehm war! Der Flug dauert noch nicht Mal eine Stunde und der kleine Flughafen in Dresden macht die An- und Abreise total einfach! Der Hauptbahnhof liegt natürlich zentraler und wird von fast allen Großstädten innerhalb Deutschlands angefahren! Natürlich könnt ihr auch überlegen, ob ihr anstatt mit dem Auto mit dem Bus anreisen möchtet.

Für alle außerhalb Deutschlands würde ich immer den Flugweg empfehlen! Sollte es keinen Direktflug nach Dresden geben, kann man auch innerhalb von 2 Stunden von Prag oder Berlin aus nach Dresden fahren.

What to Do

As already mentioned, there are countless possibilities when it comes to enjoyable activities in Dresden. But (!!) I especially liked that I could see all the main attractions, where the city thrives just after the 2 days of my arrival Dresden so, I didn’t miss out on anything.

I would start your tour at the Neumarkt, where you are at the same time directly at the Frauenkirche. On Neumarkt, you will find numerous cafes and restaurants overlooking the Frauenkirche. In good weather, you should definitely enjoy a glass of wine with a view of the Frauenkirche.

From here it is only a few meters to the Elbe. You will pass the Fürstenzug, Residenzschloss and the Augustusbrücke. Despite the construction of many new buildings and reconstructions, there is still a certain charm from the past infused here.

In particular, you will notice on the way to the Zwinger Palace, how clean the Old Town and the sights are.

If you are already looking forward to a little compensation for the sightseeing program, you can walk straight from the kennel garden to the shopping center “Altmarkt-Galerie Dresden.”

If you have no fixed program in the evening, I would definitely look at what movie in the open-air cinema is running. You cannot only watch entertaining movies but also sit right in front of the Elbe. Things can get hardly more romantic than that!

On the second day, the merged parks of Schloss Albrechtsberg, Lingnerschloss, Schloss Eckberg, and Saloppe, are definitely worth a visit. It’s best to go by tram. Just get information shortly beforehand, which train goes there. The journey takes about 25 minutes.

I have listed all the places in the Google Maps view again. You can even save the map in your app so that the locations are always displayed on your map in Dresden.

Wie bereits erwähnt gibt es unzählige Möglichkeiten an Aktivitäten in Dresden! ABER (!!) besonders gefallen hat mir, dass ich nach den 2 Tagen in Dresden schon den Hauptkern sehen konnte und mich dafür nicht abhetzen musste!

Ich würde eure Tour am Neumarkt starten, wo ihr gleichzeitig auch direkt an der Frauenkirche seid! Direkt am Neumarkt findet ihr zahlreiche Cafés und Restaurants mit Blick auf die Frauenkirche. Bei schönem Wetter sollte man auf jeden Fall ein Glas Wein mit dem Blick auf die Frauenkirche genießen.

Von hier aus sind es nur wenige Meter bis zur Elbe. Ihr kommt am Fürstenzug, Residenzschloss sowie an der Augustbrücke vorbei! Trotz der vielen Neubauten und Rekonstruktionen besteht immer noch ein gewisser Charme aus der Vergangenheit.

Insbesondere wird euch auf dem weiteren Weg zum Zwingerpalast auffallen, wie sauber die Altstadt und die Sehenswürdigkeiten sind.

Wer sich jetzt schon auf einen kleinen Ausgleich zum Sightseeing Programm freut, kann vom Zwingergarten direkt in Richtung Shoppingcenter „Altmarkt-Galerie Dresden“ laufen.

Solltet ihr abends noch kein festes Programm haben, würde ich auf jeden Fall mal schauen welcher Film im Open Air Kino läuft. Ihr seht nicht nur unterhaltsame Kinofilme, sondern sitzt auch direkt vor der Elbe. Romantischer geht es kaum!

Am zweiten Tag lohnt es sich die verschmolzen Parkanlagen von Schloss Albrechtsberg, Lingnerschloss, Schloss Eckberg und Saloppe anschauen zu fahren. Ihr kommt ihr am besten mit der Straßenbahn hin. Informiert euch einfach kurz vorher, welche Bahn dorthin fährt. Die Fahrt dauert ca. 25 Minuten.

Alle Orte habe ich euch nochmal in der Google Maps Ansicht aufgeführt. Ihr könnt die Karte sogar in eurer App speichern, so dass euch die Orte immer auf eurer Karte in Dresden angezeigt werden.

</ iframe>Where to stay   It’s like they always say save the best for the last. You do not have accommodation yet for your trip to Dresden, and are still looking for something right in the city center? Well then, not to worry I have found the perfect place for you. The Steigenberger Hotel de Saxe is located right in the heart of the Saxon capital. Location and staff have earned 10 out of 10 points from me. We were greeted so warmly at the reception on arrival, that I felt very comfortable. Also, in my exclusive room, I did not miss anything when it came to viewing the city’s beauty. From my room, I could look directly at the Neumarkt and admire the magnificent Frauenkirche. With the window closed, I had absolute peace in my comfortable room, and with the window open, I was sprinkled by the soothing sounds of a violinist during the day. Personally, I love it when I can hear something of the city life and could spend hours sitting by the open window. But I’ve also enjoyed spending time at the desk in my spacious and modern rooms. I just felt good all around. In the morning, I always went directly to the fitness and wellness area from the elevator to start the day and afterwards enjoy the rich and fresh breakfast buffet. Additional pluses are available for the champagne for breakfast, the very freshly prepared buffet, the freshly squeezed juices, and the selection of local produce. Even the dinner on the terrace overlooking the Frauenkirche has everything to offer. You can get anything from local to international cuisine. The Lillet Wild Berry is a must for all aperitif lovers! As you can see, you can experience a lot in Dresden. So, nothing should stand in the way of your next girlfriend, couple, or family trip.

Das Beste kommt bekanntlich zum Schluss! Ihr habt noch keine Unterkunft für eure Reise nach Dresden und sucht noch etwas direkt mittendrin?

Da habe ich das passende für euch gefunden! Das Steigenberger Hotel de Saxe befindet sich direkt im Herzen der Sächsischen Hauptstadt! Lage und Personal haben 10 von 10 Punkten verdient! Wir wurden direkt bei der Anreise so herzlich an der Rezeption empfangen, dass ich mich direkt sehr wohl gefühlt habe!

Auch in meinem exklusiven Zimmer hat mir nichts gefehlt! Ich konnte von meinem Zimmer aus direkt auf den Neumarkt schauen und die prachtvolle Frauenkirche bewundern.

Bei geschlossenem Fenster hatte ich absolute Ruhe in meinem komfortablen Zimmer und bei geöffnetem Fenster wurde ich tagsüber von einem Geigenspieler berieselt. Ich persönlich liebe es, wenn ich etwas vom Stadtleben mitbekommen kann und hätte stundenlang am offenen Fenster sitzen können! Aber ich habe auch seit langem wieder die Zeit am Schreibtisch genossen in meinem geräumigen und modernen Zimmern. Ich habe mich einfach rundum wohl gefühlt!

Morgens bin ich immer direkt mit dem Aufzug in den Fitness- und Wellnessbereich gefahren, um fit in den Tag zu starten und danach das reichhaltige und frische Frühstücksbuffet zu genießen! Zusätzliche Pluspunkte gibt es für den Sekt zum Frühstück, das sehr frisch zubereitete Buffet, die frisch gepressten Säfte und die Auswahl von lokalen Produkten.

Auch das Abendessen auf der Terrasse mit Blick auf die Frauenkirche muss sich nicht verstecken! Es wird alles von lokaler bis zu internationaler Küche angeboten.

Der Lillet Wild Berry ist für alle Aperitif Liebhaber ein Muss!

Wie ihr seht könnt ihr in Dresden so einiges erleben! Der nächsten Freundinnen-, Pärchen oder Familienreise steht also nichts mehr im Weg!

One night in Bremen with a donkey, dog, cat & cock

April 26, 2019

by fastenurseatbelts

Leave a comment

What do you think is the first thing that comes to the minds of people when they think of Bremen? Donkey, dog, cat, cock – Well, any other ideas? Make sure not to miss out on the Bremen Town Musicians as they are known, to most, as the landmark of Bremen. But the Bremen Town Musicians are not the only highlight in Bremen. One thing I can tell you, for sure, is that Bremen is more modern than many German cities that you already know.

The modern Hanseatic city of Bremen on the Weser impressed me on my way from the main station to the H + Hotel with its imposing windmill. Within 10 minutes on my way, I had already seen St. Peter’s Cathedral and the bronze-colored donkey, dog, cat and cock. I did not find a typical Old German town in Bremen, but rather a dynamic and hip city that has much to offer in a small space.

Best Sights

Of course, you have to have seen the Bremen Town Musicians in Bremen. Do not be alarmed or disappointed by them, because in reality, the grim fairy-tale characters look a bit smaller than on television or in pictures.
You can get the most exciting coffee you can drink at Bremer Roland. Why? From here you can watch all the hustle and bustle on the Town Hall Square and still have an ideal view of St. Peter’s Cathedral and, of course, the beautiful Town Hall. The Bremen Roland, placed in front of the Town Hall, is incidentally an international symbol for freedom and market law.
At the water promenade, Schlachte you can walk past numerous cafes, restaurants and bars. Maybe you can also look into one of them. Getting bored there is not a possibility, it is rare on the promenade, especially in fair weather, as the most diverse events are offered.
My highlight and favorite district in Bremen is the “Schnoorviertel”. The small colorful and lined up houses from the 15th and 16th century have just taken my heart for an eternity. Here you can not only get some great Instagram pictures but also go for shopping and eating out.

Of course, that’s not all that Bremen has to offer, in addition to the historic buildings, a charming old town, lively parks and wonderful views of the Weser, I have also visited the newly modernized H + Hotel. You cannot, not want to live in the middle of it all.

If you have not yet met the Bremen Town Musicians, you will be able to see them in your room at the latest. And even better is that you do not need a car for a city trip to Bremen if you stay at the H + Hotel Bremen. If you are reluctant to walk, you can rent a bike at the hotel. For a refreshing start to the day is also provided through an extensive breakfast buffet.

Now the exploration tour can start.

DEU

Was fällt wahrscheinlich fast jedem ein, wenn er an Bremen denkt?

Esel, Hund, Katze, Hahn – Na, schon eine Idee? Die Bremer Stadtmusikanten sind den meisten als Wahrzeichen von Bremen bekannt! Doch die Bremer Stadtmusikanten sind nicht das einzige Highlight in Bremen! Eins kann ich euch sagen, dass Bremen moderner ist als viele deutsche Städte, die ihr bereits kennt!

Die moderne Hansestadt Bremen an der Weser hat mich schon auf meinem Weg vom Hauptbahnhof zum H+ Hotel mit einer imposanten Windmühle beeindruckt! Innerhalb von 10 Minuten habe ich auf meinem Weg schon den St. Petri Dom und den bronzefarbenen Esel, Hund, Katze und Hahn gesehen. Eine typisch altdeutsche Stadt habe ich in Bremen nicht vorgefunden, sondern eher eine dynamische und hippe Großstadt, die auf kleinem Raum viel zu bieten hat!

Best Sights:

Natürlich muss man in Bremen die Bremer Stadtmusikanten gesehen haben! Nicht erschrecken, denn in natura wirken die grimmischen Märchenfiguren etwas kleiner als im Fernsehen oder auf Bildern.
Den spannendsten Kaffee trinkt man am Bremer Roland. Warum? Von hier könnt ihr den ganzen Trubel am Rathausplatz beobachten und habt dabei noch einen idealen Blick auf den Petri Dom und natürlich das wunderschöne Rathaus. Der Bremer Roland, platziert vor dem Rathaus, ist übrigens ein internationales Symbol für Freiheit und Marktrecht.
An der Wasserpromenade Schlachte könnt ihr an zahlreichen Cafés, Restaurants und Bars vorbeispazieren. Vielleicht schaut ihr auch mal in eins hinein? Langweilig wird es an der Promenade selten, da gerade bei schönem Wetter die unterschiedlichsten Veranstaltungen angeboten werden.
Mein Highlight und Lieblingsviertel in Bremen ist das „Schnoorviertel“. Die kleinen bunten und aneinandergereihten Häuser aus dem 15. Und 16. Jahrhundert haben es mir einfach angetan! Hier kann man nicht nur tolle Instagram Bilder machen, sondern auch shoppen und essen gehen.

Natürlich ist das noch nicht alles, was Bremen zu bieten hat! Neben den historischen Bauwerken, einer bezaubernden Altstadt, lebhaften Parks und wunderbaren Aussichten an der Weser, habe ich auch das frisch modernisierte H+ Hotel besucht! Mehr mittendrin kann man gar nicht wohnen! Wer bisher noch nicht den Bremer Stadtmusikanten begegnen ist, wird sie spätestens im Zimmer sehen können! Und noch viel besser ist, dass man für einen Städtetrip nach Bremen kein Auto braucht, wenn man im H+ Hotel Bremen übernachtet! Wer ungern zu Fuß unterwegs ist, kann sich im Hotel ein Fahrrad mieten. Für einen erfolgreichen Start in den Tag ist auch mit einem ausgiebigen Frühstücksbuffet gesorgt!

Jetzt kann die Erkundungstour doch losgehen!

First H.ostel in Münster

January 21, 2019

H.ostel Münster, Münster, H-Hotels, Fasten Ur Seatbelts

German cities are often underestimated for their beauty. Just a week ago, I was in Münster for the first time and the only thing that I can say about it is that: Do not miss it! Especially the “small” German cities are always a perfect surprise for almost anyone. Many associate Münster with the famous Christmas market at the Town Hall. However, Münster has something to offer in every season.

Last week I visited the student city for the first time. I noticed instantly the countless cyclists despite the cold season. It only took me 2 hours to travel from Cologne to the central station in Münster and around 7 minutes walking to the newly opened H.ostel in Münster.

As I was standing at the reception of Marienplatz, I immediately noticed the hip Fatboy lounge furniture that adorned the place. Finally, I was able to witness an industrial-styled and modern accommodation. The rooms here are made of a combination of wood and steel.

Normally, I associate a hostel with the “messy” backpacker stalls, which certainly have some charm for some, but they are not really my style. They can absolutely not be compared with the H.ostel in Münster. Here, you can spend an affordable night in a spotless double room or in a group room. For a decent and free internet connection you do not need to go to the McDonalds next door because, of course, you can simply get that in the H.ostel. The only thing you don’t get here is breakfast. But you can get a coffee to survive the day ahead at the snack bar next to the reception.

Furthermore, I would also recommend you to try at least one of the numerous café and restaurant food offers in Münster. I had breakfast in the hip cafe “Glowkitchen” and enjoyed my wine in the evening at the restaurant, “L’Osteria“, which is just 4 minutes away from H.ostel.

Within just a 5-minute walk, you will not only find countless restaurants, cafes, markets, and shopping facilities but also all the main attractions that Münster has to offer.

Do you have any further suggestions for a weekend trip in Münster? Please do not hesitate to mention them below in the comment section.

DEU

Deutsche Städte werden oftmals unterschätzt! Gerade erst war ich zum ersten Mal in Münster und kann nur sagen: Verpasst es nicht!!! Gerade die „kleinen“ deutschen Städte sind immer für eine Überraschung gut! Viele assoziieren Münster mit dem bekannten Weihnachtsmarkt am Rathaus. Dabei hat Münster zu jeder Jahreszeit etwas zu bieten!

Letzte Woche erst habe ich die Studentenstadt zum ersten Mal besucht. Mir sind direkt die unzähligen Fahrradfahrer trotz der kalten Jahreszeit aufgefallen. Nur knappe 2 Stunden habe ich von Köln aus bis zum zentral gelegenen Hauptbahnhof in Münster gebraucht und nur 7 Gehminuten bis zum neu eröffneten H.ostel in Münster.

Kaum stand ich also an der Rezeption am Marienplatz, fielen mir direkt die angesagten Fatboy Lounge Möbel ins Auge! Endlich mal wieder eine im „Industrial Stil“ gebaute Unterkunft, die der heutigen Zeit entspricht, war direkt mein erster Gedanke! Auch die Zimmer bestehen aus einer Materialkombination aus Holz und Stahl!

Normalerweise denke ich bei einem Hostel direkt immer an die „unordentlichen“ Backpacker Buden, die mit Sicherheit für einige auch ihren Charme haben, aber absolut nicht mit dem H.ostel in Münster vergleichen werden können. Hier könnt ihr preiswert in einem blitzsauberen Doppelzimmer übernachten oder aber auch in einem Gruppenzimmer. Für eine ordentliche und kostenfreie Internetverbindung braucht ihr auch nicht zum Mc Donalds nebenan zu gehen! Die bekommt ihr selbstverständlich auch im H.ostel! Das einzige, was es hier leider nicht gibt, ist ein Frühstück! Einen Kaffee zum Überleben, bekommt ihr natürlich an der Snackbar neben der Rezeption.

Allerdings würde ich euch bei den zahlreichen Café und Restaurant Angeboten in Münster auch empfehlen mindestens eins zu testen! Gefrühstückt habe ich in dem hippen Café „Glowkitchen“ und meinen abendlichen Wein habe ich in der nur 4 Minuten entfernten „L’Osteria“ genossen!

Innerhalb von 5 Gehminuten findet ihr nicht nur unzählige Restaurants, Cafés, Märkte und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, sondern auch alle Hauptattraktionen, die Münster zu bieten hat!

Habt ihr noch weitere Anregungen für einen Wochenendtrip in Münster? Dann ab damit in die Kommentare!

In Kooperation mit H-Hotels
