Here are the top hotels and vacation rentals in Oldenburg for your perusal. Read through our carefully curated list and find a listing that’ll suit your every need.
The handsome, historical city of Oldenburg is one of the jewels of Germany’s North Sea coast. It draws a wide range of tourists to the city - those from within the country enjoy its coastal delights, and those from beyond often come to see the churches and architecture. Neighbouring the famed city of Bremen and the Dutch border, it is a place with a lot of pull for the tourist seeking something a little bit different.
While much of the attraction of Oldenburg lies in its castles and old churches, the city moves between historic and modern smoothly and seamlessly. Oldenburg is well catered for when it comes to a diverse range of holiday accommodation.
From the top hotels to cozy apartments and soothing Airbnb vacation rentals, we’ve amassed the very best for you.
We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 04, 2024.
1. Villa Stern: unfussy but rewarding (from USD 118)
Villa Stern doesn’t feel like most hotels, due perhaps in part to the relaxed feel that pervades here. It has its own private garden for guests’ use as well as wood floors rather than carpets in all rooms. There are just 15 rooms here so it never feels overly busy, and one delightful aspect is that they offer the free use of bicycles that belong to the hotel, giving you an excellent chance to see the city from a different perspective.

2. Hotel Sprenz: going the extra mile (from USD 106)
Centrally located in Oldenburg, this lovely hotel is most notable for how helpful staff and management are. They’ll provide you a picnic meal without being asked when you head out for a day trip, and the breakfast buffet is extremely highly rated. Additionally, they’ll provide – again free of charge – a free transfer to get you to the train station when you check out. The food and drink is excellent too – take your pick from a range of German regional dishes in the restaurant or beers, wines, and non-alcoholic options in the bar.

The rooms are brightly decorated and breakfast is an excellent value, with plenty to choose from at the buffet. Parking is also free of charge.

4. Hotel Rosenbohm: chic, boutique style (from USD 127)
The Designhotel Rosenbohm, to give it its full name, is unlike the majority of hotels in that each room is designed individually. All are elegantly styled with chic furnishings to make it Oldenburg’s most stylish accommodation. It’s located in an excellent position for exploring the old town, something that any visitor to Oldenburg will be keen to do on day one. It’s also just 20 miles from the North Sea coast, putting that in prime position for a day trip to remember.

5. Apartment dwelling (from USD 34)
This apartment is broken down into three separate AirBnB lodgings, all of which can be booked separately (if available, of course). If you book just one room and the others are occupied, you will find yourself sharing a bathroom and a kitchen, but it’s worth it for the great location. The city and university are just 15 minutes away, and all modern conveniences are available including a printer and copier upon request. The owner lives in the apartment below, so if you have any requests she is easy to reach and happy to help.

6. Perfect for families, close to central Oldenburg (from USD 75)
This spacious apartment is all about sun. For one thing it has a balcony terrace on which you can open the doors (or just the curtain) and let the light shine in. For another, it has a decor that feels sunny even when it’s cloudy outside. Which, let’s face it, is always a risk on the North Sea coast. Bright yellows and bumblebee motifs make this a perfect place to stay for young couples with kids. It helps that it’s also perfectly positioned for the city centre. The owner also furnishes you with all the information you need for the best stay in Oldenburg.
