The Hostelz.com Review
HI - Lübeck - 'Altstadt' Hostel is clean, bright and quiet, and centrally located a block from the river and a few minutes walk from restaurants, shopping, and historic landmarks. The staff is helpful and friendly. Baggage can be left in a locked room or behind the counter. No laundry room is provided, but there is a laundromat a few blocks away. A large breakfast is included.

The Location

The hostel is in a great area of old town Lübeck. It is only a fifteen-minute walk from the main train station. It's located on a quiet residential street close to shops, restaurants, and the beautiful city gate tower. There is also an Irish pub that hosts an English pub quiz half a block down the street. The lovely city center and many beautiful churches are also in walking distance.

Rooms and Bathrooms

One- to four-bed rooms are available. The rooms are clean and bright, with big windows overlooking the street or courtyard. The beds are bunk bed style with clean sheets and blankets. Each bed is accompanied by a shelf with a reading light. There is lots of storage in the lockable closets provided and the room is locked with a key card security system. There is a private sink provided and the bathrooms are close by and very clean. There are separate stalls for each toilet and shower. The showers and towels are decent and everything is very new and clean.

Common Spaces

Free breakfast is provided every morning in the common space, a small cafeteria with nice tables and chairs. Breakfast is a full German spread with juice, tea, milk, a selection of bread, cereal, fruit, jams, Nutella, and cheese and meat platters. Coffee is available for purchase from an automatic vending machine.

Summary

Overall the Altstadt Hostel is clean, quiet, and safe -- a great place to stay in Lübeck, one of our favorite towns in Germany. There is so much to do and see, and everything is in walking distance -- from touring the many beautiful churches, wandering among the quaint neighborhoods, or visiting the Puppet Museum (which has the largest private collection in the world). Lübeck is a gorgeous town with lots of photo opportunities, good shopping, and plenty of restaurants.

5  Great hostel and perfect location! Very nice place, clean, friendly people, and international atmosphere. very good rooms and excellent breakfast. For sure one of the best hostel i have ever visited.  , italy ()
2  Large rooms, nice shower. the food wasn't very good, i traveled in a large group, about 30 people, and it wasnt enough for us. Lamps off at 11.  ()
3  Good location, only a three-minute walk into the heart of the city. The room I stayed in was small, but had a wardrobe, table & chair, and its own sink. The bathroom and shower were right across the hall on the same floor and they were new and clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was included and the variety was really large!! I recommend this place!  ()
