Uncomfortable wobbly beds, I didnt think it was a very fun hostel and the rooms were dirty. Needs improving and more of an atmosphere.

A good and relatively quiet place still in walking distance from the central station (but not as near as some other accommodations)

Thank you Dieter for your comment.With the S-Train just one stop to Central Station and two more stops to the City Center (Marienplatz). From the Hotel to the Train Station it is fifteen minutes by walking distance. And in 10 minutes by foot you're on the best beer- party of the year, "Oktoberfest". you have any questions, problems or do you need information for Munich, please come to the reception. We're here 24 hours for you.

All the facilities in the hostel are good, breakfast is nice and always provide us a clean environment. The only thing to be consider is the elevator. One elevator is kind of not enough for so many people.

15-20 minutes (on foot) away from Marienplatz, the hostel has a perfect location if you're in Munich for Oktoberfest

Thank you for your nice reviews Athos. The hotel is 10 minutes by walking distance to the Oktoberfest and in the year 2012 we have a new bar. The name is "Brezn-Bar" and we make the special after Oktoberfest -party in this year. So, if you have time come back to Meininger Munich City and make the "Wiesn- Special-Party" in the new "Brezn-Bar" with us :)

The hostel is just too busy for the staff to be friendly. They are basically stressed out. The kitchen is just too small. If we knew that earlier, we would have stayed elsewhere. The good things about this hotel is comfortable beds and the location, though it is 10 minutes walk from the main train station (5 minutes walk to Hackerbrueker station, it is located in the better part of the city. Due to this reason, expect school groups and family with kids.

Not very far from the Main train station, you gotta pay additional 4,5 EUR for breakfast. The breakfast is good though.. Bar is the next door, common area is nice, you just gotta wait for the lift whole eternity...after all very good hostel!

Owner Comment (Show)
Thank you for your rating. With the S-Train is just one stop to Central Station. Breakfast cost EUR 4.50 when you decided in the morning. If you buy the breakfast on check- in, it will be cost only 4,00 EUR for a all you can eat buffet. They start from 7:00 untill 10:00 o'clock. You can use also the lift from the first floor. Then the waiting time is not so long:)

The breakfast is cheap and it was complete. It has different things to eat. It was clean enough. It's near the station and there is a tram stop just one block from the hostel.

No wifi in the room, sad. But the stuff was very friendly, and location was quite far away from the main station. Anyway, it is nice. But the room is very small. Especially the washroom.

Pretty groovy hostel. Bar, food facilities and a good breakfast available for cheap. Only around the corner from the train station and a tram stop up the road. Close to pubs and restaurants. I would definitely stay there again.

I picked this hostel for the value! I got so much more than I bargained for. There was always someone at the front desk to answer questions about the hostels and the location. The atmosphere was so cozy for a large hostel. There was a bar in the lobby and drink specials. Nothing too crazy, but enough to be able to chat with other guests and relax after a long day of seeing the city. The bathrooms were very clean. The kitchen was great to cook in, and to meet other guests! I enjoyed it!

The staff was great and the lobby was nice, but the room was disgusting. There were ants in the shower and mold all over the bathroom. It is also not in a great location and it's a bit of a walk to the city center.

Dear Ellen, thank you for your comment. We know the problems with the bathrooms,therefore we renovated any rooms and the bathrooms and we cleaning the rooms with special cleaning agent. On the other side of the street ther is the famoust restaurant of munich with the best beer and very good german food but not so expensive.

This is the best hostel I have ever stayed in for the price. All the rooms are up to date and that is the best breakfest I think you can get for the price anywhere. Yes, the staff are not friendly or welcoming but if you get their attention they will answer your questions. It is unfortunate this place is almost 2km from the train station. The walk back after a long day of sightseeing was the worst part of my stay but even that wasn't the end of the world because you are still in city centre.

The stop almost outside our front door and run every 5-10 minutes to the city center and back to the hotel.
