We've compiled the best of the best in Lübeck - browse our top choices for the top things to see or do during your stay.
This historic town house in the heart of the city is Lübeck's most charming hotel with small, modest, well-kept guest rooms for up to five people on two floors. Comfortable beds, bright birchwood furniture, a quiet setting, and a great (not to mention nutritious) German breakfast buffet make this a perfect choice for budget travelers looking for romance.
This small, family-run boutique hotel in the Old Town offers comfortable rooms furnished in a modern Scandinavian style, most of which are well-suited for people with restricted mobility. There is a small courtyard with benches and chairs in the back. Breakfast is included in the room price, including vegetarian, vegan, or gluten-free options.
Only a stone's throw from the Holstentor, this hotel is close to all the main attractions and faces the moat surrounding the Old Town. It's family-run and very comfortable, with modern rooms, mostly decorated with bright cherrywood furniture. Though small, the guest rooms are big enough for twin beds and a coffee table and come with either a shower or a bath.
Close to the famous Holstentor, this ultramodern hotel, with its daring architecture, still reveals a north German heritage: the redbrick building, with its oversized windows and generous, open lobby, mimics an old Lübeck warehouse. When making a reservation, ask for a (larger) Superior Class room, whose price includes a breakfast. A big plus are the very comfortable beds, which are large by German standards. The Nautilo restaurant serves light Mediterranean cuisine.
