A genteel 19th-century spa town where steam still drifts up from 26 Roman-tapped hot springs, Belle Epoque colonnades and a grand casino outshine the town's modest size. Nicknamed the Nice of the North for its mild climate and manicured calm rather than any real seafront.

Getting aroundcompact and mostly flat, easy on foot, with a dense local bus network for the rest; Frankfurt is around 40 minutes by train, so Wiesbaden works well as a quieter, low-key base
Where to stayMitte for the spas, Kurhaus and Hessian State Theatre on your doorstep; Biebrich for a quieter riverside base near the Rhine and the palace gardens; Suedost if visiting for the BRITA-Arena or Museum Wiesbaden
