1. Village apartment good for four people (from USD 89)
This listing on Airbnb features an apartment situated in a quiet village 6 kilometers (4 miles) from the town center. This place is perfect if you prefer a quieter neighborhood away from the hustle and bustle of the town. You can still have your fill of walks and hikes in the village and nearby. A trip to town is also easy to do because of a nearby bus stop that takes you to other parts of town. The town center is only a 10-minute bus ride.
The apartment is perfect for couples but can also accommodate two more people in the living with the sofa bed. The kitchen is well-stocked and brand new, making it easy to cook your own meals. Central heating is available if needed. A guest’s review sums up what this place can offer: “Christoph and Kasia’s place is absolutely beautiful!!! We booked this Airbnb very last minute, and were so appreciative that they accepted our booking with very little notice! It was wonderful to be able to cook a much-needed home cooked meal in their adorable kitchen :) The place is beautifully renovated and very clean, and even has (my favorite part) a well stocked mini bar with German beer and wines!”

5. City apartment Lustnau
Here is one rave review of this property on Booking.com: “The room is quite clean and well equipped. The apartment is located in the quiet place which takes about 10 minutes from the center of Tuebingen by bus, but it is near to a bus stop and very convenient area. Across the apartment, there is a shopping center which comprises supermarket, bakery and pharmacy. We are totally satisfied with this apartment.”
The apartment’s location is advantageous for guests who want a quieter neighborhood but is not too far away from the town center. It offers free WiFi and is nearby the Hohentubingen Castle and Museum. With an oven and a microwave in the kitchen, you can cook your own meals. There is also a quaint seating area where you can put your feet up after a day’s adventure.

Address: Dorfackerstraße 20
7.76 km (4.9 mi) from Wurmlinger Kapelle (St. Remigius Kapelle)
6. Bright and modern apartment near the center (from USD 223)
The host would like guests to make his rental their “base camp” for exploring the town and rightly so. It is centrally located and you can reach the center in 10 minutes walking or a quick bus ride. The State Theater is also nearby offering indoor entertainment when the weather is not so good. The neighborhood is also quiet, with nearby walking and hiking trails along the Neckar river.
During winter, guests are provided heating through heated floors. There is a deck, as well as a balcony, for hanging out, while the kitchen has enough equipment to make a simple meal or coffee. Underground parking is available in the building. A recent guest also commended the host and the apartment: “Peter was a wonderful and friendly host, he made everything really easy! The apartment is very modern and in a great location, right next to the river and a very short walk away from the University and the Old Town :) it was very clean and very well equipped. We had a wonderful time and would definitely stay here again!”
