"Great WiFi, clean room, helpful staff, wonderful selection at breakfast. Pool was lovely, towels available there. Outdoor seating was relaxing after a day of walking around the city. I wish they varied their selection of beers in the cooler as I find Jever too bitter. Bitburger or Licher preferred. Overall, a great experience and we would book there the next time we visit Gießen."

When is the best time to go to Marburg?
The best time to go to Marburg is during the spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October) months, when the weather is mild and the natural surroundings are at their most appealing.Springtime in Marburg brings pleasant temperatures and the blooming of flowers, particularly noticeable along the Lahn River and in the university's botanical garden. It's an excellent time for exploring the city's hilly streets and the Marburg Castle without the intensity of summer heat or the chill of winter. Many outdoor cafes begin to open fully, offering a relaxed atmosphere for enjoying a coffee or meal.Autumn offers a beautiful display of colours as the leaves change, especially around the castle and along the riverbanks. The temperatures remain comfortable for walking and sightseeing, and there are often fewer crowds than during the peak summer months. It's a great time for those who appreciate scenic views and a more tranquil experience while still being able to enjoy outdoor activities.While summer (July and August) is also popular, it can be quite warm, and the city sees more tourists.
