As a cultural hotspot in the border triangle Germany-Belgium-Netherlands on the Eifel, the city impresses with its historical monument density. Above all, the World Heritage Site, the Aachen Cathedral, in which the German kings were crowned and Charlemagne found his last rest. Behind them are the Cathedral Treasury, the historic town hall, the Elisenbrunnen as well as the Couven Museum and the Casino Aachen. The visual flagship is the Kornelimünster district, which is also the starting point for the Eifelsteig hiking trail to Trier. Aachen pampers the whole nation with Aachener Printen, "Reisfladen", Zentis jams and hearty Sauerbraten, called "Öcher Suurbrödem".
Our a&o Hostel and Hotel Aachen is centrally located at the Aachen main station and is therefore not only for backpackers the ideal accommodation. Comfortable shared rooms and low prices convince families as well as groups and business travelers. With lots of tips and information you will provide our friendly staff during your visit. Fun-filled night owls will find their mecca in, for example, Pontstraße, which can be reached in under 10 minutes from the hostel. Relaxation is available for spa lovers in the Carolus Thermen, and nostalgics walk the best over the Christmas market at the end of the year
