Find hotels in Arnsberg from £33

The best area to stay in Arnsberg is the Altstadt (Old Town), which is the historic heart of the city.

The Altstadt is situated on a peninsula formed by the Ruhr River, giving it a distinctive, almost island-like feel. It's characterised by narrow, winding cobblestone streets, half-timbered houses, and the impressive Arnsberg Castle ruins perched above. The central market square, Alter Markt, is a key landmark, surrounded by cafes and shops, and it's very walkable.

Couples looking for a romantic getaway will find the Altstadt particularly appealing. The historic architecture and scenic river views create a charming backdrop for strolls, and there are several traditional German restaurants for evening meals. The proximity to the Arnsberg Forest also offers opportunities for peaceful walks.

For those who appreciate modern comforts alongside historical surroundings, hotels just outside the immediate Altstadt, but still within a short walk, offer a good balance.

The best time to visit Arnsberg is during the late spring (May to June) and early autumn (September to October) months.

During late spring, the weather is pleasantly mild, with temperatures typically ranging from 15°C to 20°C. The countryside is lush and green, making it ideal for outdoor activities like hiking or cycling along the Ruhr Valley Cycle Path. You'll find the gardens and parks, such as the Rodelpark, in full bloom, offering a colourful backdrop for your visit.

Early autumn also offers comfortable temperatures, usually between 10°C and 18°C, and the landscape transforms with stunning autumnal colours. This period is superb for scenic drives through the Arnsberg Forest Nature Park or exploring the historic town centre without the larger summer crowds. Many local festivals celebrating the harvest or traditional crafts also take place during these months, providing a chance to experience local culture.
