Hotel Minerva

על המקום הזה Hotel Minerva

Hotel Minerva is a four-star property near Freiburg's Hauptbahnhof with an established gay-friendly reputation. The location gives easy access to both the Altstadt — a 10-minute walk — and the train connections that make Freiburg surprisingly well-connected: Basel is 45 minutes south, Strasbourg 45 minutes north, and the Black Forest begins on the eastern edge of the city. For visitors attending CSD Freiburg in July, the Minerva provides reliable upscale accommodation within walking distance of the festival. Freiburg's CSD is modest in size (around 15,000 attendees) but has a character — politically engaged, queer-feminist, university-city energy — that makes it different from the larger CSDs in Cologne or Hamburg.
