Emergency accommodation
In Hanover with no place to stay? A number of organisations can help find you a bed.
The Tourist Information Office can see what they can do for a small fee and has some emergency offerings in pensions, inns and other smaller ventures in addition to the regular private accommodation space. Visit the Tourist Information office for more information.
The Mitwohnbüro-Hannover also offers temporary lodging. Operated by Thomas Kühn, this company helps individuals find temporary accommodation for short or longer periods-usually in a private flat or other type of residence. The company is rolling out special search services for the World Cup games this summer. The Mitwohnbüro charges fees for it services - so look elsewhere first if you are trying to pinch pennies. For more information, contact tel. 32 23 22 or visit www.mitwohnbuero-hannover.com.
Hanoverians are known for being internet savvy. If you find yourself without a place to stay, your solution lies at your closest internet cafe and is just a few clicks away. Several locals maintain private accommodation year round and this summer will be no exception. Most places are privately-owned apartments that have yet to be let and as such are fixed up to accommodate temporary guests. Others on offer are kleine dachwohnungen, or small rooftop apartments in private homes. Log on to read offers, or to post your own. Sites with offers include www.hannover.opusforum.org, www.hannover.kijiji.de and www.hannovermesse.de/21107.
