3. Where + when Thursday 19th February 2009.
Arriving in Duderstadt and starting Dendritic Cell Immunology therapy @ The Institute of Tumor Therapy, Duderstadt.

I am currently undergoing Dendritic Cell Immunology therapy at ‘The Institute of Tumor Therapy’ in Duderstadt, Germany.
To get here, you have to either fly Frankfurt and drive approx 4 hours or it’s an 1.5 hours from Hanover.
It is very close to Gottingen which has the highest Nobel Peace Prize winners per capita than anywhere else in the world. They are EXTREMENLY innovative in regard to finding ‘cures’ to illnesses and have received more accolades’ than Cambridge and Oxford put together (so my Dr’s assure me)
It is a very small sleepy town and quite picturesque. Not at all what I was expecting!
When I arrived it was snowing and I really felt like I was walking down ‘Main Street’ in Disney Land outside my hotel as it seems so perfect (like a film set!)
I chose to stay in Zumen Lowen Hotel, which is the best in the town (It’s a SMALL town but let’s just say it’s NOT like the Four Seasons here ;-) )
I have a large corner suite but it’s VERY basic. One thing I cannot get used to is that the Germans seem to like to sleep with a single duvet, even if you book a double bed but I shall not waffle on about this again he he.
The hotel has wonderful friendly staff, who try their very best to be accommodating.
Hotel tips:
As before bring what YOU need.
There is no internet connection from the bedrooms, you have to go into the restaurant to connect, however it is free! ;-)
The hotel is very reasonably priced, so please do not have great expectations.
They have an indoor heated pool ;-)
My friends LOVE the cake shop in the lobby, the slice of cake is enough to use as a major door wedge, both generous and tasty.
The Hotel is 5 minutes walk to the Insitute.


Other recommended Hotel walking distance is Hotel Budapest; expect small basis B&B style.
