The Best Hotel in Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia, Germany

Hotels in eastern Germany are up to international standards and, due to economic subsidies in the 1990s, often far outshine their West German counterparts. In the East it’s quite normal to have a major international hotel in a 1,000-year-old house or restored mansion. Smaller and family-run hotels are more charming local options, and often include a good restaurant. Most big hotels offer special weekend or activity-oriented packages that aren't found in the western part of the country.

During the trade fairs and shows of the Leipziger Messe, particularly in March and April, most Leipzig hotels increase their prices.
