Located in southeast Germany, the Free State of Bavaria is a land rich in natural beauty. From the lush emerald forests of the national parks and conservation areas to the snow-capped peaks of the Southern Alps, the Bavarian landscape is a luxurious place to enjoy the outdoors.
Consider making the countryside of Bavaria your home base for exploring Germany. Although luxury accommodations in Germany come in an array of choices, Bavaria offers a range of unique options you should consider when planning your European vacation.
Book nights in hotels along the Romantic Road, which meanders for 350 km from the north of Bavaria to the foothills of the Alps, past many medieval castles and palaces. Use an online travel site to search for luxury hotels in the towns of Wurzberg, Augsburg or Fussen.
Consider a luxury spa or ski resort for your accommodations. In Germany, many spas merge alternative therapies with cultural activities such as the theater or exercise like snow skiing. Bavaria boasts over 50 such spas and resorts with a diversity of styles and themes. Use the All Hotels or Five Star Alliance Web site (see link below) to find the resort or spa of your choice.
Look for luxurious 5-star hotels along the banks of the Danube or Main Rivers. During the day, cruise the river and sample local cuisine and wines. To make luxury reservations in the towns of Passau, Ingolstadt or Regensburg, use either of the Web sites referenced below and search any one of these cities on the river.
