Best Rooms for Rent in Bremen

Located at the River Weser, Bremen is home to the second biggest harbor in Northern Germany. You might know the city from the Brothers Grimm’s fairy tale “Town Musicians of Bremen”. Due to its harbor, it is nowadays a major economic hub and a great candidate for coliving with fellow freelancers and digital nomads.
If you want to live like a local, take a fairy South across the river to Stadtwerder. There you can relax at the beach, play volleyball or use the WI-FI at Café Sand. Watch out for the Lichtluftbad; at this river beach venue, people have been bathing naked since 1905. Lichtluftbad also hosts events like Walpurgisnacht, the night when witches congregate around a bonfire.
On the north side of the river, you will find the old town and cultural center of Bremen as well as the majority of the coworking spaces. Marktplatz is the heart of the city. In summer it is great for sightseeing. In winter, however, there’s the traditional German Christmas market with gingerbread and mulled wine.
