Cozy old-building charm & modern design.

Explore Bamberg on foot from this centrally located holiday apartment.

Welcome to the Franconian Rome*!

In the holiday apartment Domizil they live on one of the seven hills of Bamberg.


*Bamberg is known as the "Franconian Rome" because, like Rome, the city is built on seven hills. This nickname arose because Emperor Henry II viewed the city as a counterpart to ancient Rome, a notion reinforced by renowned artists during the Baroque period.

Like in a design hotel,

only much more comfortable!

Our holiday apartment is designed just like the kind of accommodation we would love to stay in: clean, minimalist, and modern in its furnishings, cozy, with a blend of warm and cool colors and materials. Thoughtful touches bring a smile to your face. There are no personal belongings of the owners; the apartment is used exclusively as holiday accommodation.

Discover the World Heritage city of Bamberg!

Our holiday apartment is the perfect base for exploring the beautiful Bavarian university town on foot. Located on one of Bamberg's seven hills, above Bamberg Cathedral, in an incomparable old town atmosphere, yet far enough away from the hustle and bustle to ensure a relaxing stay.

From here you can easily reach the Franconian Switzerland hiking area, the Hassberge hills, the Steigerwald forest and the surrounding cities such as Nuremberg, Würzburg, Coburg and Bayreuth.

We felt very comfortable from the start. The location was excellent, and the city center was easily accessible. Carolin was very friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend this accommodation.

Superbly located, cozy, and clean apartment!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The apartment is very clean and cozy. We lacked nothing! Communication was very friendly, and check-in/check-out was straightforward. The house is very quiet, and the other residents are also very nice. A small suggestion: Perhaps some kind of wall protection (glass, tiles, foil?) should be installed behind the stovetop burners. Otherwise, the freshly painted wall won't stay looking so nice for long when the stove is in use ;-)

 perfect!

 This is our second stay at this apartment, so that says something right there. It's a well kept, clean, bright apartment with all the services you might imagine and is just a short walk from the old centre of the city with all the shopping and museums nearby. I will note that there is no onsite parking and that the parking that is available (for an additional Euro 10/day) involves a bit of a circuitous drive down a narrow winding road and then a 150m hike uphill and through a completely different building to get back to the apartment, so be sure to transfer your luggage by stopping near the apartment before parking. The instructions provided were totally usable to negotiate all this, but were only in German, so Google Translate is your friend.
