One Day in Aachen, Germany
We’ve visited Aachen on two different occasions, both for only a day each.
Naturally, we found ourselves getting lost beneath the towering Aachen Cathedral… but the good news is, that’s where Aachen comes to life.
Being a college town, Aachen is the perfect place to grab cheap eats from AKL Lebanese Restaurant, local beers from Rewe City, and sit on the steps on the backside of the Town Hall to enjoy people, the cathedral, and the lively city.
We stayed at two different locations in Aachen, the first place was at A&O Hostel, which is great if you’re on a super budget.. and the second at B & B Hotel Aachen — which we really enjoyed.
Both places are near the train station and just outside the main city center — which makes for a great walk in and out of town finding local coffee shops and yummy grab and go food.
