With a population of around 55,000, Bad Homburg masterfully blends small-town tranquility with cosmopolitan flair.

The city's history is deeply intertwined with its status as a world-famous spa town, which earned it the official title 'Bad' (Spa). In the 19th century, it was a summer residence for German emperors and a popular retreat for European aristocracy, including King Edward VII of England. This legacy is visible everywhere, from the grand Kurhaus to the elegant architecture. A key personality associated with the town is Friedrich Hölderlin, one of Germany's most celebrated poets. The decision to rent a motorhome Bad Homburg vor der Höhe places you right in the heart of this rich cultural tapestry. The weather is generally temperate. Summers are warm and pleasant, perfect for hiking and outdoor living, while winters can be cold with occasional snow, transforming the Taunus into a winter wonderland. The best time for your camper adventure is from late spring to early autumn (May to September), when you can fully enjoy the long days and mild temperatures. Choosing to rent a 4x4 camper Bad Homburg vor der Höhe is an excellent idea if you plan to explore the more rugged forest trails of the Taunus. Your journey starts here, in a city that promises both relaxation and adventure right after you pick up your camper.

Returning Your Camper Van Clean

wohnmobil_mieten_badhomburgvorderhoehe_romantische-altstadtgasse.pngwohnmobil_mieten_badhomburgvorderhoehe_historischer-elisabethenbrunnen.png

Returning your camper van clean is part of the rental agreement, but finding a wash station suitable for a high-top vehicle can be tricky. Standard car washes are often too low. To make your life easier, we've found a few suitable locations in and around Bad Homburg where you can get your motorhome sparkling clean before you drop it off.

Why it's a challenge: Most automatic car washes have a height limit of around 2 to 2.2 meters. Our camper vans, especially with roof attachments, are much taller, so you need a facility designed for trucks or large vehicles (LKW-Waschanlage).

Here are some options for you:

1. SVG Autohof Ober-Mörlen
This truck stop has a high-clearance wash bay perfect for motorhomes. It's a short drive on the A5 motorway and well worth it for a proper clean.
Address: Isaac-Fulda-Allee 1, 61239 Ober-Mörlen

2. LKW-Waschstraße Friedrichsdorf
Located in the neighboring town of Friedrichsdorf, this facility is specifically for large vehicles and is a convenient option close to our station.
Address: Max-Planck-Straße 14, 61381 Friedrichsdorf

3. Shell Autohof Bad Hersfeld (for longer trips)
If you are returning from a trip north or east, many larger Shell truck stops along the main motorways (like the A4, A5, A7) have excellent LKW washing facilities. Always look for the 'LKW-Wash' sign.
Address: An der B 27, 36251 Bad Hersfeld

Getting to Bad Homburg to start your camper van adventure is straightforward, especially for international travelers. Your main gateway will be Frankfurt Airport (FRA), one of Europe's largest hubs with excellent global connections.

From the UK & Ireland:
You'll find numerous daily direct flights to Frankfurt (FRA) from major airports like London Heathrow (LHR), London Gatwick (LGW), Manchester (MAN), Birmingham (BHX), and Dublin (DUB). Airlines such as Lufthansa, British Airways, and Ryanair offer frequent services.

From the USA & Canada:
Direct flights to Frankfurt are available from key hubs including New York (JFK), Chicago (ORD), San Francisco (SFO), Los Angeles (LAX), Toronto (YYZ), and Vancouver (YVR). Major carriers like United, Delta, Lufthansa, and Air Canada operate these routes. If you're flying from other cities, you'll likely have a simple one-stop connection through one of these hubs.

From Australia, New Zealand & South Africa:
Travelers from Sydney (SYD), Melbourne (MEL), Auckland (AKL), or Johannesburg (JNB) will typically have a one-stop flight to Frankfurt, commonly connecting through major hubs in the Middle East (like Dubai on Emirates or Doha on Qatar Airways) or Southeast Asia (like Singapore on Singapore Airlines).

From Frankfurt Airport (FRA) to Bad Homburg:
Once you land at FRA, you have two great options. You can take a taxi or ride-sharing service directly to our station, which takes about 20-30 minutes. Alternatively, you can take the S-Bahn (suburban train). The S8 or S9 line will take you from the airport to Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof (main station), where you can easily switch to the S5 line which goes directly to Bad Homburg. The entire train journey takes about 45 minutes and is very efficient.
