Central yet quiet: Art Nouveau hotel in Berlin
Central yet quiet: Art Nouveau hotel in Berlin

Accommodation: A turn-of-the-century residence
The hotel is a tremendous value in the heart of Berlin. Its location on a quiet, tree-lined street just off the Kurfürstendamm couldn't be better. The five-story building, built around 1900 as a private residence, has a nostalgic, old-fashioned look with ornate designs on its cream-coloured facade, tall windows, romantic balconies edged with flowerboxes, and a large tree shading the entrance. You step inside to a hallway with a black-and-white marble floor, mirrored walls, and a vaulted ceiling. The rooms are spacious and nicely furnished in a traditional style with dark wooden furniture, pastel-coloured fabrics and lace curtains. Many of the rooms face onto the quiet courtyard.

Accommodation: A quaint 16th century inn
This romantic little inn dating from 1534 combines history, charm and an excellent location. Just two blocks from the central market square, the Kloster-Stüble is tucked away on a quiet side street behind an old church and has pretty views of the surrounding countryside from many of the rooms. Behind the hotel is the Castle Garden, a quiet park that offers a unique view of the town. The rooms are somewhat snug but comfortably furnished in the rustic style. A large apartment, set under the eaves, is perfect for families or longer stays. The cosy restaurant serves hearty, regional cuisine.

Accommodation: Hotel Haus Lipmann
The Hotel Haus Lipmann has been in the same family since 1795. What makes this pleasant little inn especially appealing is its location in the heart of one of the quaintest villages on the River Moselle: with its picturesque medieval buildings, church and castle ruins, Beilstein is a true gem. The dining rooms in the hotel are just as attractive as its exterior: you may find yourself in a small farmhouse-style room before an old fireplace, in the warm, panelled main dining room, or in the Knights' Hall surrounded by a collection of medieval weapons. Weather permitting you can move outdoors to the terrace and watch the gentle river glide by as you sip a glass of excellent Moselle wine. Upstairs are five charming, nicely decorated guestrooms, all with splendid river views.

 

Joachim Lipmann, the owner's brother, offers wine tasting in his cellar across the square and runs the town's little wine museum. Haus Lipmann makes an excellent base for exploring the Moselle and nearby Rhine. Possible activities include a visit to Eltz Castle, one of Germany's most picturesque medieval castles.
