Würzburg Address Book

Congratulations to the newlyweds! The wedding day came and went in this historic, little town on the Romantic route without a hitch.

In between all the activity, I had a chance to walk around and came across some fun little places along the way:

Eva Maisch & Schmuck is a chic, little jewellery shop representing several German designers.
Café Balthazar on martinstraße 3 (T: +49 931 404 4447) is a trendy café/lounge bar and was packed at mid-day.
Schloß Steinburg is a charming castle hotel perched up on the hill with views of Würzburg in the distance. Decor is a bit Rococo, but the restaurant serves up good food. Pictured is the indoor pool with views of the Marienberg.

Welcome to Würzburg!

Würzburg is a charming, little place, that's most famous for it's Residenz, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. My brother's wedding ceremony will take place in the Residenz's Chapel. Imagine having your wedding in an important, historic Baroque church and the most amazing thing is that it cost only EUR50 to rent the venue (If only all the other wedding-related expenses were so reasonably priced)!!

Welcome dinner for out-of-town guests was at Nikolaushof up on a hill by the 400-year-old, onion-domed, Käppele. It has great views of Würzburg from its terrace and is a great place a an outdoor reception in warmer weather. As it was, it was still a bit cold and the dinner was held indoors.

Since I am using wi-fi so much. I thought I'd start a public service and give people an indication of wi-fi hotspot pricing. So whenever I'm connecting via wi-fi, I'll indicate network and pricing at the end of the post.
Wi-fi connections used:
Best Western Premier Hotel Rebstock (service provider is probably T-Mobile) -- EUR5/24 hours (what a steal!!)
T-Mobile @ Frankfurt Airport (spent 3.5 hours at Starbucks in the New Shopping Avenue at Terminal 1's check-in level) -- EUR18/24 hours, you can also buy in smaller units such as EUR8/hour
