Hostels in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany

I was very satisfied. The room was cozy and very clean and the staff very nice and helpful. Internet works very well. That was a nice experience to stay there! The location is also very good, many shops and cafes nearby.

As a female solo traveller I felt extremely unsafe and uncomfortable. I paid for one night and never stayed, I left at 10:30pm and went to a hotel nearby. I was first out in a room with older and very strange people who had food all over their beds and floors as though they live there full time. The smell was horrendous and I knew I couldn't sleep in there. I asked for another room thinking I got unlucky. I was then transferred to a room with 3 older men in there 50s and 60s who were walking around with only underpants and then fully undressing in front of me. They were not reading books or minding their own business, just staring at me while I made my bed. As I went to leave, one of them followed me and asked where I was going, if I was leaving, and when I'd be back. He was strangely invested in my quick return bit was odd. There should be a healthy mix of women and men, and travellers want to stay with like-minded travellers, not homeless people and creepy old men! I lost 30 euros at this place. Just avoid it!

I can't speak highly enough of the excellent and friendly service we received from the managers at this hotel. They went out of their way to accommodate us - 2 coachfuls of Scouts (83 people) for one night at 3 hours notice! They were very patient with the multiple requests for WiFi codes, help with vending machines etc, and the noise and mess that such a big group of kids inevitably brings. They even helped us order delivery pizza and let us use the dining room to eat it. On top of that, the rooms were clean and functional although basic. The showers were hot and the beds comfortable. Breakfast was very good...even marbled eggs decorated for Easter! I would stay here again if visiting the area or passing through and needing a pitstop.

Great youth hostel! The facilities are very new and very clean! There are many places to read and rest in the lobby, and the front desk service is very good! The bed is semi-closed and will not be disturbed. Convenient transportation, there is McDonald's next to it. Thank you!

There is need to improve on the check in times . I ended up not checking in because my flight was delayed and they insisted that checking in time was between 4pm - 7 pm . I ended up booking elsewhere to cater for my flight that was landing around 9 pm .

Absolutely marvelous! I have traveled to 38 countries in my life and have stayed in countless hostels around the world. Hostel Aachen is not my all-time favorite - but it is pretty close! I took a weekend getaway to Aachen while living in Germany. I booked Hostel Aachen because it was a good price and the location was well-reviewed. I quickly learned that this place is a hidden gem! The staff are EXCEPTIONAL - complimentary and responsive! I was given a private room, free of charge. Towels were provided to me at no extra cost. The room was clean and had a large window. The showers and bathrooms were EXTREMELY clean (not just for a hostel, but for a hotel). Facilities were also well-maintained. The building also features a lovely patio area for eating and smoking and a very large lounge area, with a kitchen (fully stocked with tea, coffee, utensils, and dishes), a large, 20-person dining table, a small kitchen table, and even a work desk and lounge love seats. The amenities are wonderful, but the best part is the staff. I was fully accommodated my entire stay and wanted for nothing - my questions about places to eat, means of travel, sites to see, and things to do were all answered promptly and with great detail. And the staff is simply simpatico. I extended my stay an extra day! Oh, and the location is ridiculous! You can walk 10 minutes to the main square or take a bus 5 minutes or a scooter for 3 minutes. And the train station is literally across the street! Unbelievable! If anything, There is a train station across the street, which means trains do pass by in the night. But I was able to sleep with no problems. This just may be a concern for people with trouble sleeping.

Great location, very close by to restaurants, bars and shops. Close by to U bahn stop and easy to walk with suitcases from the Hautbahnhof. The room had a sink which was helpful although the room could get a bit stuffy in the summer weather. The toilets and showers were in separate rooms - there was more than enough of both so you didn't have to wait. The breakfast had a lot of variety of meat, cheese, bread, yoghurt, cereal, fruit. Staff were very friendly although not the most help with questions we had. Unfortunately on all 3 nights there were groups of children making lots of noise up until 12am. Overall it was a great stay and I would recommend it.

The location is very good, the room is very good, very clean, but the front desk is not 24 hours.

Experience stay with camping retro feeling! Great idea (indoor camping with old living/rail cars, living cars, and even a cable gondol) to the smallest details lovely implemented, for example with suitable seats before the theme cars and decorations. Community sanitary facilities (as usual in the camping) are very well equipped and clean, in the toilet tract no mief and a lot of paper stock. Breakfast is available on a large built-in empore, also here original design details, it is relatively easy held, but absolutely sufficient (I actually missed only cooked eggs) and properly presented, Also is always checked whether something is missing. The staff is very friendly and helpful. And lastly, the price-performance ratio is also true! If I need a night stay in the Bonn room again, I will be very happy to come back! Tip: Before booking, check whether the room and ”comfort” offers of the selected accommodation also meet their own requirements and physical requirements. For example, the old bed car sections are very closely connected, The beds are very narrow and when they are located with 2 people one must climb his bed per head (this was just the old bed cars). I had booked the department alone, I reached the place (I was used to ”tack garage” and isomate). :-)
