The photographs of this wonderful apartment don't do it justice, it is wonderful!! The views from the floor to ceiling windows are astounding and we spent a good deal of our time watching the world go by either from inside or from the comfy chairs out on the balcony.
The apartment has everything you need for a very comfortable holiday. Comfy beds, plenty of nice thick towels and a wonderful bathroom and kitchen. The kitchen has every utensil you would ever need, in the tidiest drawers I have ever seen!! Also, there were very welcome extras such as spices, condiments, coffee tea and best of all a lovely bottle of wine!
The apartment is across from Koblenz, but there is a ferry within a 10 minute walk which operates during the day every day apart from Monday. Otherwise it is a pleasant 30 minute walk into the City. We also used the train - it is mainly a freight line from Ehrenbreitstein, but there is an hourly passenger train into Koblenz HBF with regular trains wherever you wish to travel.
There are numerous good restaurants, take aways and ice cream parlours in Koblenz, our favourite was the Pegelhaus - fab food, lovely riverside setting and very friendly service. There is a nice and very friendly Indian/Italian/German restaurant, Hotel Sessellift just down the road in the former Rathaus. If you are used to Indian cuisine in UK, I would recommend the traditional German food which was lovely.
On hot days there is a really nice Freibad on the banks of the Rhine at Oberwerth which is about a 15 minute drive, we really enjoyed our days there.
There is a Lidl just 10 minutes down the hill or a REWE about 15 minutes up the hill, both had everything we wanted.
There is a huge amount to do and see around the area - Castles, Fortresses, Museums and beautiful towns and villages. I traveled with my husband and sons aged 16 and 19 and we were busy every day and there is a lot we just didn't have time to do.
Some things to bear in mind - the fabulous view means steep paths and lots of steps even 10 minute walk to the Lidl was a good work out for my legs!! Also, there is a freight rail line which runs 24/7 and a bell tower very near to the main bedroom so I wouldn't say the apartment is peaceful, but you quickly get used to the different sounds. All in all, a fabulous holiday!
