Where is the best place to stay in Travemünde?
It depends on your trip: near the beach for a classic beach holiday, the town centre and Vorderreihe for restaurants and short car-free walks, the Priwall for quiet and nature. The four locations are described individually above.

The first stop is the official host directory of Lübeck-Travemünde Marketing (travemuende-tourismus.de) – owners are listed directly, with no middle layer.
