Located 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.

The location was perfectr. It was right by the river Main, and easily accesible by the bus and the tram. Very close to the Dom as well. The breakfast spread at the hostel was excellent!

Just 656 feet from Frankfurt Central Station, this modern hostel is centrally located in the city’s red light district.

Super cool! The vibes were amazing and there’s a space for remote workers to use it

Featuring a shared lounge, HOME Hostel im Schönhof-Viertel is located in Frankfurt in the Hessen region, a 19-minute walk from Messe Frankfurt and 0.9 miles from Senckenberg Natural History Museum.

The hotel didn't put full address. I booked uber to get back hotel from the airport but he can't find the address and i had to book another one and he still couldn't find it till he tried to go around area to find again. And the staff is not helpful and friendly. They didn't show me how to unlock and put the luggage till i came to ask them again. Then they came to show me how to. I'm not gonna rate this place as a place to come

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The breakfast was awesome, the best I ever had in a youth hostel. The location is convenient, cross the road and you can walk along the Main.

    This is a well-managed hostel. The rooms are clean and have enough space. The location is close to the Dome and some distance from the main train station so it is safer at night. Breakfast is super great.

    Stayed here with friends whilst attending Euro 24, room was clean, staff were friendly the accommodation was perfect for what we needed at a very good rate. The hotel is in a great location for getting around Frankfurt, tram stops outside main entrance, there are places to eat in walking distance, area felt really safe to walk around even late at night.

    Great location. Probably the cheapest you can stay in central Frankfurt while still avoiding the motels in the red light district. Two minute walk from the old town square. Good TV.

    Lovely spacious room which is not always a given with the Ibis Budget Hotels. Good wifi. Safe neighbourhood, a short walk to the tram stop for into the city. As well there are plenty of food options around the hotel and a lovely walk towards the riverside which you can walk down to get to the city- amazing views of the Frankfurt skyline. Would recommend this hotel, perfect for resting after a day in the city!

    Great location to the Frankfurt city center. Friendly staff, the room was clean, very comfortable bed. There was a modern, casual atmosphere without feeling like a cheaper/budget hotel.
