The 9 best Airbnbs in Frankfurt

Experience the German city in style with our pick of the best Airbnbs in Frankfurt

Advertising

If you haven’t been to Frankfurt yet, you’re missing out. It's best known for its high-quality sausages (don't leave without trying them!), but there's lots more to it too. There are absolutely tons to see and do in this flourishing city (one of the biggest in Germany), from the medieval old town to the gothic ‘cathedral’ and the lovely Römerberg square. There’s also a whole host of great restaurants, and if you like a drink, track down an apple wine tavern. But after all this fun, sounds like you might need a cosy place to rest your head, right? Thankfully for you, Airbnb has it all, whether you’re travelling with pals, the whole family, or on a romantic getaway. 

November 2024 update: We've added two new incredible properties to this list, including a modern luxury apartment and an rustic garden home. Enjoy!

1. The luxury penthouse with a hot tub and sauna

There are a bunch of reasons to book this spacious penthouse apartment just outside of Frankfurt; the large hot tub, sauna and rain showers help give the illusion that you're staying in a deluxe spa and ensure you're relaxed the whole way through your stay. All the furniture and fixtures are trendy and high quality, right down to the king size beds.

In a quiet neighbourhood near the old town – a 20-minute drive of train ride from Frankfurt city centre.

A luxury price tag (but not too eye-watering). 
Time Out tip: This is the Airbnb to go for if you're travelling with an electric car – there's a charging station in the garage.

With sweeping city views from your private balcony, could you ask for anything more from your stay in Frankfurt? No, we don't think so, either. Ideal for a couple, this stunning luxury apartment sits on the 28th floor of the Henninger Tower.

Looking for a little respite from big city life? Look no further. This adorable garden cottage has just what you need from a weekend away. Wake up to sunlight peeking through your balcony doors, brew a coffee and sit outside to soak up the morning sun in your secluded terrace. Yes, it's as dreamy as it sounds.

6. Edgy one-bedroom apartment in the centre

Apartments in Frankfurt can be – it’s fair to say – a little same-y. This one, however, has been given some extra va-va-vroom thanks to a few stylish twists, like the exposed brickwork in the living room and the sexy monochrome kitchen area. Our favourite addition is the working telescope which can be used for stargazing (and umm… definitely NO spying on the neighbours, OK?!).

Rooms? One bedroom. Sleeps three guests.
The mood? 
Bachelor pad-ish vibes made a little cosier.
Location perks? 
In a trendy part of town, with some really good eateries nearby.
Budget range? 
Pay a little more for a cool location and great décor.
Time Out tip: Schedule in movie night at one of the three (!) local indie cinemas.

7. Black-and-white ground floor apartment

There’s something immediately relaxing about this neatly designed city apartment. It’s simply but effectively decorated in a way that feels just a tiny bit feminine, despite the bold use of geometric lines and a black-and-white colour palette. It’s got everything you’d need for a short break in town, including a small kitchen area and a nice sofa space for morning coffee.

Rooms? One bedroom. Sleeps two guests.
The mood?
Minimalistic domesticity with spa-like energy.
Location perks? 
Great location for getting to know the Ostend and the centre.
Budget range? 
No regrets for such a nicely done-up place.
Time Out tip: Don’t forget to visit the zoo! It’s walkable from this flat.

8. The ultra modern spot for two

This super swanky space for two is the kind of place you want to take your shoes off as soon as you enter - it’s that clean and sparkling. There’s a fully equipped kitchen, bedroom and walk-in wardrobe, as well as a balcony for ultimate chilling time. Just down the road, there’s cute restaurants, a bakery and a pizzeria. Think this sounds dreamy? Us too. 

Rooms? One bedroom. Two guests.
The mood? 
A millennial-style conversion that will look splendid on your Insta feed.
Location perks? 
You’ll be outside of Frankfurt (20mins by car) enjoying the quietude of Dreieich.

A very pleasing price.
Time Out tip: Consider exploring the area outside of Frankfurt more widely, including the zoo in Darmstadt, for example.

9. The idyllic green home

Located in the south bit of the city’s Westend, this quirkily decorated apartment is perfect for a short weekend break in Frankfurt. We love the retro styling of the place and the palm-print wallpaper. A large window keeps the room feeling light and has nice views of a little garden area. There’s no kitchen area provided, but the host has kindly provided an espresso machine and a kettle for all your caffeine addict needs. Plus, you won’t have any trouble accessing restaurants and cafes when hunger calls.

Rooms? One bedroom. Sleeps two guests.
The mood? 
Retro colour schemes and bold prints make this place a whole lot of fun.

Right in the centre with the Old Opera House just a stroll away.
