Local knowledge for Frankfurt

Where to stay

Most hostels sit in the Bahnhofsviertel, right around the Hauptbahnhof, where every U-Bahn and S-Bahn line converges and you can walk to the Römer in 15 minutes. Sachsenhausen, across the river via the Alte Brücke, is calmer and puts you close to the Schweizer Strasse bar strip and the apple wine taverns.

Getting around

  • Take the S8 or S9 S-Bahn from Frankfurt Airport to Hauptbahnhof. It runs every 15 minutes, takes 11 minutes, and costs just a couple of euros. The taxi runs many times more for the same trip.
  • Kleinmarkthalle on Hasengasse has hot food stalls selling lunches for a few euros. It beats anything near the station on price and quality, and it closes early afternoon on weekdays.
  • Pull up the Frankfurt Messe trade fair calendar before you book. Fair weeks, especially the Book Fair in mid-October, push hostel rates two to three times higher than normal. A week's difference in timing can save you real money.

When to go

January and February are the cheapest months to find a bed. Prices climb in summer and spike hard around Messe trade fair dates scattered throughout the year.
