The nearer it gets to the Frankfurt Book Fair, the more difficult it can be to find suitable accommodation. We help you find one.
There are more and more hotels going up in the Main city all the time, however. An affordable alternative to the hotel market is provided by rooms and apartments rented out by private landlords. The Frankfurt Book Fair offers you here a selection of the options for you to choose and book hotels and private rooms in the category you require.
Free entry for you and an accompanying person.
