New hotels in Regensburg - out of the ordinary

Are you looking for a hotel that’s out of the ordinary?
If so, you will find it in the heart of the UNESCO World Heritage city of Regensburg, which is located just 1 ½ hours northeast of Munich. Many hotels offer modern comfort in a historical setting which provides both convenience and charm.

Brand new in 2011:

In the Elements Hotel , which is very close to the Regensburg Cathedral, there are suites with decor inspired by the four elements: Fire, Water, Earth and Air. Enjoy the unique experience of relaxing in your own Jacuzzi in the Water and Wellness suite or savor a candlelight dinner in the Fire and Amber suite.

In the hotel Altstadt-Engel, located in the picturesque old town section of the city, guests will find themed rooms like the hatter room, the brewery room, the Historic Sausage Kitchen room, the Old Town Bridge room and much more.

Description of the city Regensburg

The best preserved medieval city in Germany, situated at the northernmost point of the Danube River has a special charm. Two millennia of history have remained alive here. The most Italian city north of the alps also offers world renown sights such as Porta Praetoria, the gate to the Roman Castra Regina, the Old Stone Bridge and St. Peters Cathedral. Visit the Old Town Hall with Reichssaal which for 200 years served as the seat of parliament for the Perpetual Imperial Diet and with the original Tourture Chamber of the middle ages or the Palace of the princes of Thurn und Taxis - the family dynasty that founded Europe´s first postal service and now part of the Bavarian National Museum. To fall in love with this town, just stroll through the narrow streets and alleys of the old town and you can see what the city once was and still is today. In contrast with many other city centres, the residents have not been ousted by office-workers. The historic city center has a healthy mixture of shops, offices, flats, hotels, restaurants and cafés. Listen to the delightful voices of the boy´s choir of Regensburger Domspatzen, taste the delicious sausages at the Historic Sausage Kitchen or take a boat trip on the Danube River. You will discover that history can be fun. Experience an ancient town which is young and modern at the same time.
