Location literally can't be any better. Less than 100 m from the HBF. Comfortable beds, Nice little bar and common area to Hang out if one likes.

Swapnil

Good location. Comfy bed, with individual lights. Good value for money!

Laura Spain

The location is top notch, just 4 minutes walk away from the Hauptbahnof. My room was really comfy and despite the fact that it was a 6 bed room, everyone was super comfortable and had a good night sleep. The hostel's winter garden was fun to sit in and enjoy my evening and overall, 5/5 for Wombat's. Will come here again whenever I'm in Munich.

Bashir Germany

The staff is super cool, I met some people that was cool to talk with, the breakfast is good and everything was good tbh

Dex Austria

The location is great, just a few minutes walking to get to the central station

Mariana Germany

The location is really great! Just near the main central station, from there you can go anywhere. Breakfast is very good and value for money. The lockers work pretty well and you don't have to bring your own padlock, they can be locked using your room card, which is also used to open the hostel's doors. The bar seems to be really nice during the nights as well, a lot of people having fun :)

Fernando Portugal

The location is excellent. The common areas are great and super comfortable also for working remotely. The bar and the staff are great! I did not expect that, but towels were provided.

Sergi Spain

I liked the convenience to the train station and how close it is to old town. It’s a safe place to stay.

Buffy United States of America

Great location near the transit station and a 10 minute walk from the city center. Decent breakfast for the price. Friendly and helpful staff.

Wesley United States of America

The staff was very helpful and friendly. They provided me useful information to get around the city. Breakfast at a reasonable price.

  • Is it quiet at night?

    Wombat's being in the center of a big city like Munich does result in some noise on the lower floors facing the streets, especially on weekends. Guests also have access to "Wombar" on the ground floor. The "Wombar" is open into the night which can cause some noise on the first floor. If you are looking for a quieter bed, please ensure to send us a message so that we can do our best to place you on a higher floor.

  • Can a person get a bed for long period like 6 months ?

    Returning guests are very much so appreciated and one of the things we love to see here in at the hostel. However, we are looking to promote an atmosphere of being a place where travelers can come to feel at home for their time here. For this reason, there is a maximum stay of 7 nights. All guest are able to stay a total of 7 nights here at the hostel. This also is the policy when looking to book multiple consecutive stays of 7 nights. You are then asked to be a minimum of 7 nights away from the hostel, but we do prefer two weeks. We do apologize for any inconveniences this may cause you, but ask for your understanding in this.
