Step into history and comfort at the Euro Youth Hotel Munich, a unique hostel-hotel nestled in a historic building that remarkably survived World War II. As Lonely Planet aptly describes, this atmospheric haven “oozes history with every dangling chandelier and creaky staircase.” More than just a place to sleep, the Euro Youth Hotel offers an experience, blending old-world charm with modern traveler needs, all while being perfectly situated for exploring Munich.
Unbeatable Location: Right in the Heart of Munich
Location is paramount when exploring a new city, and the Euro Youth Hotel Munich boasts an enviable address. Situated a mere 100 meters from Munich’s Hauptbahnhof (main train station), you’re instantly connected to the city and beyond. This prime spot places you within easy walking distance of Munich’s iconic central sights, including the Marienplatz, Residenz, and more.
Beyond the immediate city center, the Hauptbahnhof acts as Munich’s central transportation hub. This grants you effortless access to suburban attractions like the BMW Welt, Allianz Arena, and Nymphenburg Palace. For those eager to explore further afield, day trips to Neuschwanstein Castle, the Bavarian Alps, and even Salzburg are easily achievable thanks to the hotel’s exceptional connectivity.
A Hostel with History: From Luxury Hotel to Traveler’s Haven
The building itself tells a story. One of the few structures in the Hauptbahnhof area to emerge unscathed from WWII, the Euro Youth Hotel Munich occupies what was once one of Munich’s first luxury hotels, the Astoria. This rich history permeates the hostel’s atmosphere, giving it a character rarely found in modern accommodations. You’re not just staying in a hostel; you’re experiencing a piece of Munich’s past.
