I take advantage of the request for Michela which will pass the New Year's Eve in Frankfurt, to make a post about a few days in the German city during the Christmas holidays. First of all, since the airport of Frankfurt-Hahn it is about 120 km away from the city you could take advantage of the distance to make an immediate stroll out of town.
To get to Mainz the times and rates are found on the Official site of the airport of rancoforte, 70 minutes, just over an hour to arrive, not bad. Mainz it is a really nice city as evidenced by the site of the city, also here is the Gutemberg Museum, the inventor of movable type printing, whose statue is also located in the city center.
In addition the site also offers short tours which can last from 1 hour to 3 hours, to download and print including map. Single particolare only in German and French. As for the pubs among the most cited Eisgrub e Haus des deutschen Weines.
With regard to the city of Frankfurt once you arrive at your destination since you will be there on New Year's Eve and that on January 1st everything will be closed I can only recommend you some good breweries, also considering the cold it will do.
Doctor Flotte is one of the nicest pubs in Frankfurt, in the center, quaint and full of good beers. Drosselbart a beer garden that obviously has also placed inside and which is located in Eschersheimer Landstrasse 607. Zu den Zwölf Aposteln is located at Rosenberger Strasse 1, a corner beer garden with a modern interior, here also a restaurant.
Paulaner am Dom located in Domplatz 6, in front of the Cathedral, old town, wooden interiors and copper barrels, the Paulaner in Germany is always a certainty. Zum Gemalten Haus Cozy beer garden, full of mural and good beer, to eat a hot and caloric dish this place is ideal.
In case you want tour the city sipping some good German beer, I recommend the tours BierBike. A sort of mobile table where you can drink your beer thanks to a tap and a barrel underneath. Yes pedal and visit the city in an original way to say the least. There are 16 seats and occupying them all for two hours you spend about € 18 each (including beer), not bad.
