Frequently Asked Questions about hostels in Germany

  • What are the most affordable attractions for backpackers to visit?

    Germany offers many budget-friendly options for backpackers. Free walking tours in cities like Berlin and Munich are a great way to see the sights. Many parks, such as the Englischer Garten in Munich or Tiergarten in Berlin, are free to explore and offer beautiful scenery. Exploring smaller towns and villages allows for cheaper accommodation and meals than major cities. Hiking in the Black Forest or Harz Mountains is another inexpensive activity, requiring only sturdy shoes and packed lunches.

    Among the hostels in Germany, Lotte - The Backpackers, Lekkerurlaub and Eastseven Berlin Hostel are the most popular ones.

  • Which airports handle most of the air traffic to and from Germany?

    Frankfurt Airport (FRA) and Munich Airport (MUC) are the busiest airports in Germany, handling a significant portion of international and domestic flights. Other major airports include Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER), Düsseldorf Airport (DUS), and Hamburg Airport (HAM).
  • What are the best hostels with a pool in Germany?

  • What currency is used in Germany?

  • What are the best hostels with a jacuzzi in Germany?

  • How easy is it to navigate the roads in Germany?

    Germany has a well-maintained and extensive highway system (Autobahn), known for its lack of a general speed limit on many sections. However, be aware of speed limits in urban areas and residential zones. The road signs are generally clear and follow international standards. A GPS device or navigation app is recommended, especially for navigating smaller towns and cities.
  • What are the best hostels for families and kids in Germany?

    The best hostels for families and kids in Germany are Lekkerurlaub, Eastseven Berlin Hostel and Cvjm Jugendhotel München.

  • How can travelers best respect local customs while visiting Germany?

    Being punctual is important in German culture. Saying 'Guten Tag' (good day) or 'Guten Morgen' (good morning) when entering a shop or restaurant is polite. Tipping is customary in restaurants (around 10%), but not always expected in cafes or bars. Learning a few basic German phrases is always appreciated. Respect quiet zones, especially in residential areas, and be mindful of noise levels on public transportation.
  • What are the best pet friendly hostels in Germany?

    The best pet friendly hostels in Germany are Hostel Lollis Homestay Dresden, Pfefferbett Hostel and Superbude Hamburg St Pauli.

  • Which traditional festivals define the spirit of Germany?

    Oktoberfest in Munich is perhaps the most internationally known German festival, celebrating Bavarian culture with beer, food, and parades. Other significant festivals include Carnival (Fasching or Karneval) celebrated in various regions before Lent, and Christmas markets (Weihnachtsmärkte) which pop up throughout the country during the Advent season. Each region also has its own unique local festivals and celebrations.

    For medical emergencies, dial 112. For police emergencies, also dial 110.
  • What are the best areas to spend a week in Germany?

    A week allows for exploring a region in depth. Bavaria offers a blend of mountains, castles (like Neuschwanstein Castle), and cities like Munich. The Romantic Road, a scenic route through southern Germany, is ideal for road trips. Berlin, with its rich history and vibrant culture, is another excellent choice for a week-long stay. The Rhine Valley offers stunning scenery and medieval castles along the Rhine River.
  • What are the best areas to spend a weekend in Germany?

    For a weekend getaway, consider Cologne with its impressive cathedral, or Heidelberg with its charming old town and castle. Smaller cities like Bamberg or Rothenburg ob der Tauber offer a glimpse into medieval Germany. A weekend in Berlin allows you to explore some of its key landmarks, but a longer stay would be needed to truly appreciate its vast offerings.
  • Are there specific regions known for great weather?

    Southern Germany, particularly Bavaria, tends to have warmer and sunnier weather than the north. The regions along the Rhine Valley also enjoy relatively mild temperatures. However, weather in Germany can be unpredictable, so packing layers is always advisable, regardless of the region.
