The Property — Conny´s Treff
A functional, no-fuss three-star in the north of Erfurt. The lobby is bright but sparse with a small reception desk and a few plastic plants; the vibe says 'practical base', not destination. It suits independent travellers who need a clean, quiet room near the autobahn and don't mind a 20-minute walk to the cathedral. The USP is free parking and easy access to the A71 – handy if you're touring Thuringia by car.
Chronicles of Erfurt
Erfurt was founded around 742 as a Frankish bishopric and grew rich on the woad trade in the Middle Ages. Its medieval core survived WWII bombing largely intact, giving it the best-preserved Old Town in central Germany. The Krämerbrücke, a continuous row of houses built on a bridge, and the towering St Mary's Cathedral are the architectural highlights. Today Erfurt is the capital of Thuringia, a relaxed university city known for its left-leaning politics and as the birthplace of the Reformation.
Best Time to Visit
Full Erfurt guide →Best months
May to September. June has long days, café-filled plazas and temperatures around 22°C – ideal for wandering the Altstadt without the July-August peak crowds.
Peak / festival surge
June peaks with the Erfurt DomStufen-Festspiele (open-air opera on the cathedral steps) starting in late June. Hotels book up fast and prices rise 20-30% for these weekends. The festival and summer solstice drive the rush.
Budget shoulder season
April and October: average highs of 14°C, fewer tourists, and hotel rates drop 15-20%. The city's parks are still green in October, and the Christmas market hasn't yet inflated prices.
Weather & packing
Erfurt has a continental climate: warm summers but sudden cool evenings even in June. Pack a mid-weight jacket for after sunset, plus a light raincoat – June sees about 8-10 rainy days.

Your Perfect Room

Best views

Money & Currency

Use bank ATMs for the best rates; avoid currency exchange bureaux at Erfurt Airport or tourist offices, which charge high fees and poor rates.
Cards (EC/Maestro, Visa, Mastercard) are widely accepted in supermarkets, chain stores, and larger restaurants; many smaller cafés, bakeries, and market stalls prefer cash, so always carry some euros.
In restaurants, round up the bill or leave 5–10% for good service; taxis round up to the nearest euro; hotel housekeeping is not expected but a couple of euros left in the room is appreciated.
Eat, Shop & Travel on a Budget
Cheap car hire →Filter coffee or espresso at a bakery or café kiosk, around €2–2.50.

A main course at a simple restaurant or Gaststätte, roughly €10–14.
The area around the Anger and small food stalls at the weekly market on the Domplatz offer affordable bratwurst, Döner kebabs, and currywurst for €4–6.
Discounters like Aldi, Lidl, and Netto are common, with Rewe and Edeka as slightly pricier alternatives.
High-street chains (H&M, C&A, Primark) are found in the Angermuseum area; a Saturday flea market near the Flohmarkt am Anger can yield cheap second-hand clothes.
A single day ticket for buses and trams within Erfurt costs about €6.80; from Erfurt Airport, a budget option is the bus line 35 to the main station (€2.80) – avoid taxis.
Use the ErfurtCard for discounted museum entry and free city transport; buy groceries at Aldi/Lidl rather than eating out for every meal; fill a water bottle at public drinking fountains (free).
