The right accommodation

If you want to enjoy your city break to the full, you should first decide where you want to stay: Is proximity to the train station or the airport important? Should you avoid the hotel in the bustling city center or do you want to stay right there to enjoy the nightlife as much as possible?

In addition to proximity to the main sights, the service in the hotel itself is also an important criterion. Do you value a hearty breakfast? Are you looking for a room with a large French double bed for a real vacation feeling? Is a private parking lot at the hotel important? Should there be a garden or park nearby because your four-legged friend is coming along?

What about your travel budget? Are you looking for an inexpensive hotel or would you prefer something a little more luxurious? Determine your priorities - this way you will immediately find out which districts best suit you and your needs.

Must-dos in Leipzig

The metropolis of Saxony delights its visitors with its rich history and cultural diversity. Here, art and culture lovers are fascinated by the numerous museums and galleries and music lovers also get their money's worth, as the city is known for its long tradition and lively scene. But the first Leipzig landmark you should visit is the imposing Battle of the Nations Monument, which commemorates the battle of 1813. In addition to the moving history of the site, you can get a breathtaking view of the city from here.

Another iconic destination is Auerbachs Keller in the middle of the City Center. It is Leipzig's best-known and second-oldest restaurant, where wine was served as early as the 16th century. The old pub became world-famous thanks to the scene of the same name in Goethe's Faust. If you would like to dine in one of the four historic dining rooms, you should book a seat in good time, as they are in high demand!

Incidentally, Auerbach's cellar is located under the Mädler Passage - another sight not to be missed. There are around thirty such covered arcades in Leipzig, but this one is reminiscent of the Galerie Vivienne in Paris and is by far the most beautiful. Inside you will find restaurants, chic boutiques, a theater and many other very different stores and eye candy.

If you are looking for something special on your trip, you should look out for the various events at Messe Leipzig and get yourself a ticket. There are a wide variety of events here covering everything from living trends and food to creative hobbies such as model making, concerts and art fairs.
