Visit Lübeck

Very cool city. Totally accessible with friendly people and a ton of great restaurants. Easy place to explore the Baltic coast from. Perfect place for a 2-3 night stay; longer if you just want to chill, shorter stays if your are pressed for time.

Charming pedestrian street with a variety of shops and cafe, restaurant. The old town was fascinating and interesting to walkabout in. great mix of restaurant and world wide cousin - we ate at a Vietnamese restaurant, food was perfect and service level high.

Loved the vibe in Lubeck - plenty to see and do. People seemed friendly and I just wish we could have stayed longer. We travelled to a few cities in this part of Germany over the course of the week, finishing in Hamburg, and Lubeck is the one I always look back on fondly.

The architecture in Lübeck centre is predominantly medieval and coupled with the wide river flowing through it gives a wonderful atmosphere. There are two museums and the church of St. Mary is well worth a visit. Shopping is well catered for and the cafés are excellent, the Weiner Caféhaus in particular. We were slightly wrong-footed by the fact that most shops are closed on Sunday and the cafés don’t open until 11am so breakfast should be taken in the hotel on that day.

We visited Lübeck the week before Christmas to enjoy their Christmas markets. We were not disappointed! Everything was in walking distance. We were there over the weekend, and there was still a lot going on. We enjoyed the café and eateries, as well as all the sites, sounds, smells and tastes of the Christmas markets. (We recommend the Backstore Cafe for delicious breakfasts!) You'll have to sample some marzipan while in Lübeck. It is made there. You can buy marzipan in any supermarket, but you won’t want to miss the delicious cakes at the Niederegger Cafe. There is a small free museum on the top floor of the Niederegger Cafe. Be sure to visit it. The view of the market from there was also beautiful. The people of Lübeck were very friendly. Lübeck is a hidden gem in Northern Germany. Definitely worth checking out.

Lubeck is an amazing city full of charm and wonder! In order to do everything a 2-3 day trip would have been great, but we managed to do quite a bit in just one day. I would definitely recommend the churches, Holstentor, and the Town Hall guided tour. Perfect food options too, with a diverse range of culinary delights. Once you are in the old town, nice and easy to get around on foot. I'd probably avoid going during the Christmas markets again though.
