The Nürnberg Hostel is in a unique location on the top of the hill overlooking the city. It's within walking distance of the town (about 20 minutes from the old town), but there are no alternatives to walking up the hill to get there.
The hostel is part of Kaiserburg Castle – one of Nürnberg's major historical landmarks. The showers are clean and hot water is not a problem. The rooms are big and clean and the staff are friendly but not too talkative. Breakfast is included (the usual cold meats, cheese, kaiser-bread, and coffee/tea) like most German hostels, but this one usually has a long queue because it is popular with school groups.
The hostel can be very institutional – but if you want a historic location and good value this place is ideal. If you prefer a convenient location close to the railway station and bars/restaurants with a laidback atmosphere then Lette'm Sleep may be a better option. Either one is good for being able to get to Nürnberg's main attractions.
Like other Bavarian youth hostels, individual guests aged over 27 are supposedly not allowed to stay but this rule seems to be applied fairly arbitrarily at times here – especially during quieter periods.
