| Hello! I love beer, especially the lovely smoked beers of the Bamberg region of Germany. I'll be visiting the city this October and would love to try "immersion travel" -- living where the fine beer is made! You should've seen my smile when I read that this was possible in Bamberg... Anyway, although I hear there are "lots" of brewpub/guesthouses, I keep running into just a few places: Faessla, Spezial, and Greifenklau. Faessla seems to be the most recommended, although I'm a tad concerned that it'll be like staying at an Elk's Lodge -- not that I have a problem with that, but if something cozier and more historic would be available, that's more my taste (I understand Faessla looks pretty 1950's-ish). In trying to book a room, though, I'm having trouble finding anywhere to reserve online. Faessla, for instance, just provides a phone number and I don't really speak German very well yet (I'm working with Rosetta Stone, though, but will be cramming after I get my accommodations set up). Anyone have any tips on how to reserve? Or, are these other brewpubs/guesthouses that might be worth checking out? Any info would be much appreciated. Thanks so much & have a great day! |
