Rosenheim is situated not far away from Munich, direction south-east and has a railway station. It's a nice little town and not far away from the mountains, the Chiemsee and a lot of other beautiful places. Have a look at: http://www.kuko.de/main.asp?main=tourist&c1=&c2=sigthseeing I never stood there myself (always in the surrounding area), therefore I am not able to give you a conrete advice to find a room. But I am sure the tourist office would do their best to help you ( touristinfo@rosenheim.de ) I am curious about where you'll be landing at last! Good luck, Christian --- Just SMILE - and the world smiles with you!!

We also have other options but some thing like this seems ideal, we are also going to look at Augsberg and Essenheim, we have plenty of time to decide but the more information and tips we can get the better it will be, we have been thinking of going for some years but this time we will definitely make it, Regards, Tony. --- I am no longer a stranger in a strange land.

Holiday accommodation in Bavaria exists in a location steeped in romance and mystery, where fairy-tale castles nestle amongst the densely forested, snow-capped mountains, and charming rural village communities still adopt traditional customs and a way of life that is typically Bavarian. --- luxury resorts http://travel.justlu-xe.com/ Reply    Reply with quote    Contact shubh
