I want to know about the economic way to travel and also about the economic hotels in these cities.
I've found your website the best way to find my answer. I'm waiting for your best suggestions.

Are there any direct trains from Karls. to Brussels?

How can I do that?

How could I get to Karls. from Trento or Bolzano by train? Have I to go to Munich first and then take another train to Karls.?

Has anybody stayed there? What's your opinion about it.

On our Euromeet2008 website (in the accommodation travelogue) we have already introduced a couple of hotels in Karlsruhe that might be interesting for those of you attending the Euromeet!

However, we are aware of the fact that the closer the meeting comes, the more deals will be offered on various hotel booking websites.

So, please, be so kind and share your deals and hotel finds here on this thread - it will be highly appreciated by your fellow attendees!

Thanks a lot in advance!

Need suggestions as to the better logistics to visit the Koln Cathedral from Karlsruhe and return to Karlsruhe.

I have been looking at some of the train schedules (not in the diebahn site, for time purposes in the Raileurope site) as well as to the KD Boat schedule at http://www.kdrhine.com/

From Karlsruhe, it looks like there's no way to do a day trip and do both the visit to the cathedral and sailing down from Koln to about Koblenz. I had some notes from a response a couple of years back but can't find them. So it looks like I'll need to stay in Koln overnight. So take an early train out of Karlsruhe and see the cathedral that afternoon, then sleep in Koln and sail in the morning.

Any other suggestions - reverse circle? Should I ride from Karlsruhe to Koblenz, sail from Koblenz to Koln, see the cathedral the following morning and take the train from Koln to Karlsruhe. [The assumption is that maybe there's a good reason for doing the trip in reverse, like maybe the cathedral is better viewed in the morning than the afternoon].

Would you recommend one or two places to stop along the way?

Any comments/suggestions welcome! ... and one other thing to do in Cologne, and favorite place to eat. I sort of like potato dishes ;=)

Thanks.

I am wondering if any one can give me distance from baden airport to karlsruhe and what railway station station to use to get to stuttgart.

Hello,
I live in Brasil and have a trip to Germany early October. In Karlsruhe will have a car rent from Avis and need to return it to their location in Karlsruhe at Stuttgarter Strasse 27. Is an easy walk from there to Karlsruhe Hbf ?? Is there any tram that can use ?? Easy to get taxi if necessary ??
Thanks in advance

Greetings list,

Does anyone know of website or other resources where one can get information on renting an apartment for a vacation lasting a week or a bit longer? My wife and I will be in Germany visiting her relatives in the Berlin area for Xmas and we'd like to take the chance once we're there to go to the Karlsruhe region. Would an apartment in fact be more economical than a traditional hotel? Any ideas or information would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Cristobal

Hi buddies,

Nice to visit this forum and postings ensured me to get proper and correct information about my doubts. I am about to visit Karlruhe in mid of May for some official work in 76032 Karlsruhe and would stay there for approximately 6-8 weeks or longer.
So can you please post your comments for following Qs.--

1. What would be best bet for accomodation for single room appartment(pref with Kitchen), and since I am alone so may I get it shared by students or working professionals near my office location(76032 Karlsruhe).

2. Would it be better to have initial accomodation in some hotel room or youth hostel for 5 days. What would be the nominal charges for the same.

3. How is weather condition nowadays? Should I bring some warm clothes, or normal jackets would be OK?

4. Somewhere I read that Traveler's Cheque are not accepted easily, so what would be the best way to carry amount... should I get some Debit Card, how ever I'd have the local bank's card anyway within some days.

5. Which is nearest International/Domestic Airport from Karlsruhe. If not Intl AirPort then which one would be the best route to follow Frankfurt or some other.

I would be grateful to you if you solve my queries...
Thanks in advance :)

Hello,

My brother and I are on our business trip to Germany in April from India. We are first visiting Hannover (Hannover Messe) then Karlsruhe (Resale 2007) and lastly Munich (BAUMA).

I am planning to leave Hannover by CityNightLine train on April 18 to reach Karlsruhe on April 19 morning. Most of the hotels offer 2PM check-in but we will be there at 5:30 AM. Is there any hotel with 6-7AM check-in which is also economical?

We will have 19th & 20th evenings to enjoy the town and nearby surroundings - any advice? I will love to try local breweries and German beer.

Any ideas for Black Forest trip? We will be going to Munich on April 21 by train and can take detour on that day.

Thanks in advance!

We are flying out of the Karlsruhe-Baden airport and want to spend a short time in the Black Forest area. We are specifically interested in the ENZ river. Is Karlsruhe the best place to stay due to the airport, or is there a better place for one day and overnight siteseeing in the Black Forest. Thank you for your help.

Thank You.

When I was in Karlsruhe, I saw a bench with a stone mounted on the middle of it. I think it was on the Kaiserstrasse or somewhere near the univerity and the Marketplaz. I am searching for a photo of that bench. The significance of the bench is that my wife was adopted from Karlsruhe by Americans stationed in Orleans in the Air Force. Her mother used to tease her that she was found under a rock in the Black Forest. When we came across the bench, I told her that she was a local celebrity and that was "her rock". Unfortunately we didn't get a picture of the bench, and now we regret it. The anniversary of her adoption is coming up and I would like to surprise her with a picture of the bench.

I am working as an Aupair in Karlsruhe, Ive been here for around a month, are there any other Aupairs here? Also, what are some good night clubs/pubs?

I would like to know if anybody has ever stayed at the Eden Hotel Karlsruhe Germany ? . We will be over in October and need to find a reasonably priced hotel with a triple room for 3 adults in Karlsruhe .The web sites I have looked up in Australia show the Eden Hotel and the Rennaisance Hotels as two options but the prices are very different The Rennaisance is double the cost.All the other hotels show 1 -2 people only .
Can anyone offer advice on the Eden Hotel or know of another one I could look up .thankyou for any assistance

Hi, I shall hopefully shortly be arriving from Newcastle Upon Tyne (UK) to live near Karlsruhe for 6months. I'll be working as an au-pair. It'd be great if anyone could let me know of any open-mic nights for singers/guitarists in Karlsruhe or generally anywhere where I'll be able to find people who are into guitar-based music. Oh, if anyone knows about whether I'll need a licence to go busking or what the attitude of the local police is to buskers that'd be appreciated. I don't speak a word of German so any tips on language schools would be welcome too. Think thats it for now. :)

Hi,

I saw that an open air cinema runs in July and August in Karlsruhe. Are all films shown in German? I am trying to organise a group activity but many members of the group do not have any German.

Thank you for your help.
