Situated directly on the River Main, this youth hostel has great panoramic views of Frankfurt’s skyline. Haus der Jugend offers a 24-hour reception and relaxing inner courtyard.

A buffet breakfast is provided each morning, and buffets are also available for lunch and dinner. Guests can enjoy snacks and drinks in the Backpackers Inn café, while admiring the views of the Main and central Frankfurt. First of all the staff at the reception was super nice. Then everything else was fine. The rooms were clean, the bathrooms were clean as well, that is the most important - cleanliness. I am happy for this find in Frankfurt. It is not a party place, which is good, you can party outside, but when you come "home" you want to rest. I loved it.

This hostel in Marburg is situated on the upper floors of the main train station, in a quiet central location. Within a 10-minute walk from the Old Town. Hostel Marburg offers free WiFi and access to shared kitchens.

Hostel Marburg offers quiet rooms with cable TV, as well as beds in dormitory rooms. The dormitories are equipped with lockers and a seating area. There are shared bathrooms in the corridor. It is easy to take a train or bus because there are the train station and bus stop right in front of the hostel. Most of all, the staffs were really kind. I stayed for two nights in different rooms of this hostel respectively. So I thought I had to check out and check in again. I worried about the time between check-out and check-in. But they just let me stay without any additional cost. I was grateful for that.

Boasting a shared lounge, HOME Hostel im Schönhof-Viertel is situated in Frankfurt/Main in the Hessen region, 1.7 km from Messe Frankfurt and 1.5 km from Senckenberg Natural History Museum. The property is located 2.8 km from Frankfurt Central Station, 3.3 km from Palmengarten and 3.5 km from English Theatre. Free WiFi is available and private parking can be arranged at an extra charge. I can't say enough positive things about this place! It looks like it's brand new, the room smelled great, everything was super clean, the bed was the most comfortable I ever slept on in a hotel, plus the location is super convenient, when you are attending any fair within the Messe expo (just one stop with the S-Bahn). A pro tip - if you step out of the S-line at the Main West station, do not go downstairs, just go towards the end of the platform, you'll see an open iron door to an iron pathway between the railways, follow the pathway and find an iron staircase going down at the end, then cross a simple rail when you come downstairs and then just around one small building, there is the hotel! It's like 5 mins walking (in comparison with the Google route, that will take you around the block for like 15 mins). The very nice lady at the reception helped me with this and it was super useful. I also had a very positive experience with the online checkin and the staff was wonderful too. The breakfast was simple, but nice. After some pretty horrible experiences in the past with Frankfurt hotels, this is like a 5-star experience! I couldn't recommend this hotel enough, for a single work-traveler, the one bed room is just everything you need. Plus the value for the money... that's just incredible. Book it, you will be satisfied.

Situated in Kassel, 4.1 km from Kassel Central Station, B-Hostel features views of the garden. The property is set 4.1 km from Museum Brothers Grimm, 7.9 km from Train Station Kassel-Wilhelmshoehe and 10 km from Bergpark Wilhelmshoehe. The accommodation features a shared kitchen and free WiFi throughout the property. Really nice, almost cosy. B-Hostel has a downstairs and upstairs setting. While I was staying downstairs in my 1st week’s stay (and I was ok with it), I resided upstairs in the second part of my travels. Upstairs is definitely an upgrade in comfort.
