My husband and I are going to Germany next month, and need advice on where to stay one night. We were about to flip a coin or throw a dart at the map, but before we resort to that, I thought I'd consult the experts here first.
We'll be meeting up with family in Monschau for 2 nights (May 22-24), but it is the night before we meet them that is up in the air and a giant question mark. We'd like to stay in the general area of Monschau (no more than an hour or two drive), and are considering Aachen or Bonn or ??. Our preference is not to stay in Köln, just because we'd like to avoid cities that large on this trip.
After Monschau, we're heading to the Mosel region (probably basing ourselves in Cochem) for 2 nights and the Rhine (probably basing ourselves in Bacharach or St Goar) for 3 nights.
Any suggestions or tips? Thank you very much!
