The city is slowly coming to life with festive sparkle. Strings of lights are being hung, market stalls are being set up.

🎄 The Magic of the Christkindlesmarkt – Experience Christmas in Nuremberg

When the first fairy lights sparkle above the streets and the scent of roasted almonds and mulled wine drifts through the old town, you know: the most wonderful time of the year has arrived in Nuremberg.
In just two weeks, it will begin again – the Nuremberg Christkindlesmarkt opens its gates! From November 28 to December 24, the Hauptmarkt transforms into a glittering winter wonderland.

A Stroll Through History and Delight

Since the 16th century, the Nuremberg Christkindlesmarkt has drawn visitors from all over the world. Between beautifully decorated wooden stalls, handcrafted Christmas ornaments and traditional treats like Nuremberg gingerbread and bratwurst, it’s easy to lose track of time.
If you’re lucky, you might even meet the Christkind in person – high above on the balcony of the Church of Our Lady, as it opens the market with its famous prologue.

Peaceful Stay, Festive Spirit – at Hotel Vosteen

Just a short stroll from the market square lies the Design Hotel Vosteen – a place where the bustle of the city fades away. Here, 1950s charm meets timeless design, warmth meets style.
After a day at the Christkindlesmarkt, there’s something special about closing the door behind you, sinking into a cozy armchair, and letting the impressions of the day linger.

Perhaps with a cup of tea. Perhaps with a glass of wine. But certainly with the comforting feeling of being home.

A Hidden Gem for the Advent Season

Those who visit Nuremberg during Advent experience a city bathed in golden light. Beyond the famous Christkindlesmarkt, it’s worth exploring the Handwerkerhof, the Sternenhaus with its concerts and readings, or the Partner City Market, where Nuremberg’s international friendships come to life.
And when you’re ready to unwind, you’ll find peace and comfort at Vosteen – your charming home away from home.

Tip:
Book early – rooms during the Advent season are in high demand.

Nürnberg ist eine Stadt voller Geschichten – und diese Geschichten schmeckt man. Zwischen knusprigem SWith Schäufele, freshly tapped beer, and spicy sausages, you can truly feel the tradition and heart of Franconian cuisine. Guests staying at the Design Hotel Vosteen don’t have to go far: many of the best spots are right in the Old Town or just a few kilometers away.

Here are our favorite places to experience honest food and great beer.

🍺 Hausbrauerei Altstadthof – Organic & Brewing Art

The Hausbrauerei Altstadthof (Bergstraße 19‑21) doesn’t just serve beer – it brews it too: red beer, dark beer, and other house varieties, all certified organic.
The kitchen serves classic Franconian specialties – from Schäufele to dumplings – in a rustic, cozy setting. A place that perfectly combines tradition, craftsmanship, and enjoyment.

🍽 Barfüßer – Vaults & Beer Culture

Right in the heart of the Old Town at Hallplatz 2, Barfüßer is a restaurant with its own brewery and vaulted cellar. Here, hearty Franconian dishes meet handcrafted beer. The combination of a rustic cellar, lively dining room, and summer beer garden makes a visit a genuine experience for both locals and visitors.

🌿 Fränk’ness – Modern Franconian

Located directly at St. Lorenz Platz, Fränk’ness (Königstraße 70) offers modern cuisine with regional ingredients. Oven-baked dishes, creative menus, and a stylish atmosphere make it the perfect spot for anyone wanting to experience traditional Franconian cuisine in a fresh way – without losing authenticity.

🥨 Goldenes Posthorn – Nürnberg’s Classic

Next to St. Sebald is the Goldenes Posthorn, one of the oldest restaurants in the Old Town. Its rustic interior and traditional dishes like Rostbratwürste or roast pork make the visit a small journey back in time. Ideal for tasting authentic Nürnberg.

🍻 Wirtshaus Hütt’n – Cozy & Traditional

In the middle of the Old Town, you’ll also find Wirtshaus Hütt’n. Here, Schäufele, Sauerbraten, and Saure Zipfel are all freshly prepared. The family-style atmosphere, beer garden, and warm hospitality make it a real insider tip for guests wanting to enjoy Franconian cuisine in a relaxed setting.

🍺 Augustiner Zur Schranke – Historic Flair

This rustic spot in the Old Town charms with its half-timbered house, cozy interior, and classic Franconian dishes. Whether it’s Schäufele or hearty snacks – paired with a freshly tapped Augustiner beer, the evening couldn’t be better.

🧾 Conclusion: Enjoyment That’s Close By

Enjoying Franconian cuisine means taking your time, savoring the dishes, and discovering the stories behind them. Whether in the vaulted cellar of Barfüßer, the beer garden of Altstadthof, or the historic rooms of Goldenes Posthorn – Nürnberg’s Old Town offers honest food and great beer just minutes from Hotel Vosteen.

Guests staying with us are right in the middle: in the heart of the flavors, the tradition, and the enjoyment.

A hotel can be described quickly: rooms, breakfast, central location.

But this – the Vosteen – is something different. It’s not a place you simply book and leave. It’s a feeling. A home away from home.

Perhaps it’s the soft creaking of the old tiles in the stairwell. The 1950s details that don’t try to look vintage, but are simply authentic. Perhaps it’s the people who work here. Or those who keep coming back – because they know that here, you don’t just stay; you arrive.

We are not an anonymous gray sleeping cube. We are a small, family-run hotel, with history, soul, and a keen sense of what guests really need: peace, friendliness, and a touch of warmth from the heart.

In this blog, we want to share what moves us, what happens behind the scenes – and what makes Nuremberg truly special, beyond the usual paths.

We’re glad you’re here.
