Germany Hotels by HotelTravel.com
No country in the world has a more storied and varied history- culturally, economically or politically. Throughout the ages, German people have made some of the greatest impacts on Western society. Travelling throughout the country is much like a journey through history, as one can marvel at everything from medieval castles to gleaming, super-productive factories. The German people enjoy a reputation for accuracy, precision and efficiency, although an equally enduring image is of lederhosen-clad Bavarians hoisting beer steins at Munich's famous Oktoberfest. Neither of those stereotypes reflects the diversity of Germany's towns and cities. From romantic Heidelberg, the medieval Nuremberg of Dürer and the Weimar of Goethe and the Bauhaus, to the lively port cities of Bremen and Hamburg, the financial centre of Frankfurt and revitalised cities of the former east like Dresden. Overshadowing them all is the cosmopolitan decadence of Berlin, where bureaucrats of the new capital rub shoulders with artists and club-goers.
Almost two decades removed from rebuilding a unified Germany, the country attracts more and more visitors who are finding it a great place to have a holiday. As those who have visited before, you'll be charmed by Germany's people even as you are entranced by its beauty. While Germany certainly has big city charm and small postcard-perfect towns, it is the wonderful harvest festivals, the enormous collection of art, architecture and culture that truly bring visitors back time and again. Hotels in Germany offer some of the finest in European lodging. The perennial pleasures of huge forests, delightful castles and fine wine and beer are draws for tourists from all over the world. In the south, German resorts in the Alps attract ski-lovers in winter and hiking enthusiasts in summer. Discover it in depth via these pages on German Activities and German Sightseeing.
Scathed by two World Wars and a Cold War, Germany has experienced a rebirth as a powerful, confident nation. With the memory of the wall that divided Berlin into east and west not far in the past, it continues to be a driving force towards a greater European resurgence. For the visitor, German accommodation can mean anything from 5-star luxury in the heart of Bonn to the castle-like quaintness in the rolling countryside. There is seemingly no end to what one can chose for their holiday theme, as just the mention of German names evoke mystical or inscrutable times past: The Black Forest, Hamburg, Nuremburg, Munich, Bavaria, Dresden, Neandertal, Rhineland, and, of course, Berlin. Germany's hotels and resorts offer visitors a fantastic array of trip choices, to further enhance their enjoyment of it.
