Youth guesthouse at the Kaulberg
Description
Winding alleys, baroque facades, mysterious shops and numerous water veins - you are in the middle of Bamberg, which has been a World Heritage Site since 1993. Right in the middle of the maze of streets in the old town lies our youth guesthouse. Am Kaulberg with its 31 rooms with upscale furnishings that offer space for 108 guests.
Even people with physical disabilities will find the right domicile for their stay in one of Germany's most beautiful cities.
The youth hostel has a lift so that wheelchair users can reach all areas of the house. One room is handicapped accessible, i.e. there are three single beds, extra wide doors and the bathroom is also accessible by wheelchair. An emergency signal is installed so that the staff of the JGH can be called for help in an emergency. With the lift you can also reach every floor in the house without any problems.
