town/city for 2 night stay between amsterdam & prague?

Hello!!!





I will be travelling with my boyfriend on a roadtrip in the beginning of october. We are renting a car.



Our flight arrives in Frankfurt, and from there we are driving directly to Amsterdam where we are staying in the city. From Amsterdam we are driving to Prague and staying in the city/downtown, from Prague we will go back to frankfurt, where we will stay briefly for the night before departing to return to toronto.





As the drive from Amsterdam to Prague is pretty far, we are looking to stay somewhere mid-route for 1 or 2 nights to break it up.





We don%26#39;t mind adding 100-200 km to the drive in order to go somewhere interesting.





We have discussed Berlin... but i am not sure if it is the best option... I am thinking that we should maybe consider somewhere that is not such a big city in order to round out the trip.





Does anyone have suggestions of where we should go? I%26#39;m really looking for something to round out the trip. I know in amsterdam and prague we are going to do a lot of site seeing / wandering around the city and also get an opportunity to check out night life... so i%26#39;m thinking that a smaller town with a slower pace might be a good place to stop.





Now that i%26#39;ve written an essay I will summarize... where should we go... ?? the dates we%26#39;re looking at are October 6-8.





- berlin



- munich



- hannover (i heard there is an alternate version of oktoberfest here?)



- other random town? if so which one?





when we%26#39;re here we will be primarily interested in having comfortable accommodations (willing to pay up to 150 euro, but less is better) and just getting a feel for the local culture via restaurants, window shopping/ wandering (would be interested in any festivals or markets for sure) or rural type site seeing (mountains, water).







any feedback would be greatly appreciated!!!





Thanks,



Katherine

I%26#39;d recommend going to the Harz mountains, e.g. Goslar or Quedlinburg for two days. It%26#39;s a nice contrast to Amsterdam and Prague with great scenery and nice little towns and villages:
