“Welcome Back—Family and Friends”: Under this motto, Hannover Marketing und Tourismus GmbH (HMTG) and more than 40 select hotels are inviting guests to enjoy an exclusive short getaway in Hannover this July. 

The rules are simple: To book this special offer, just one guest per room must provide proof of residence in the Hannover region at check-in. What’s special this year is that you can also book an additional room for family and friends who don’t live in Hannover! 

“This initiative sends an important and necessary message for tourism in the Hanover region. We invite you to enjoy a safe, exciting yet relaxed city and cultural getaway, marking the start of the late 2021 tourism season. Our summer offer is also meant to show that the local hotel and restaurant industry, cultural institutions, and attractions are ready and looking forward to finally welcoming guests again,” said Hans Christian Nolte, Managing Director of HMTG.

For overnight guests who do not live in the Hanover region, the HMTG has put together a “culture package” that can be picked up free of charge at the Tourist Info office on Ernst-August-Platz. It includes, among other things, the “Roter Faden” brochure, “Kultur for free”—tips for free city walks—as well as vouchers for discounted admission to the Herrenhausen Gardens, the hop-on hop-off city tour, or the guided city walk.

Tips for a short vacation
A visit to the current exhibition “Duftsafari” at the Herrenhausen Gardens, discovering public art together on a stroll, and then a pedal boat ride across Lake Maschsee. Explore the city’s different neighborhoods by bike, enjoy the view of the Leine River over coffee and cake, and round out the evening at the Varieté Theater, the opera, or one of the many theaters. A hiking tour through the Deister or the Calenberger Land, a visit to one of the fascinating museums, and then a live “Back on Stage” concert at the Gilde Parkbühne—the Hanover region has many exciting and relaxing highlights to offer for a short getaway.

With over 40 participating hotels and their many different highlights, there’s something to suit every vacation preference. For example, Hannover fans and their guests can spend a night at the Luisenhof, Hannover’s only 5-star hotel right in the heart of the city, or be among the first guests to enjoy the comfort of the newly opened NH Hotel on Klagesmarkt. The Courtyard am Maschsee offers rooms with unique views, while at the Mercure Medical you can spend a relaxing afternoon by the outdoor pool. Hotels with special themed rooms, varied breakfast buffets, and beautiful outdoor terraces invite you to spend quality time with family and friends.

Through the previous, similar campaign, “Mein Hannover Hotel – A Guest in Your City,” more than 3,500 residents of the city and region of Hannover have stayed at “their” hotels over the past six years.
