Located in Munich and with München Ost Train Station reachable within 700 metres, Wombat's City Hostel Munich Werksviertel provides a shared lounge, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi and a bar. The property is around 2.9 km from Deutsches Museum, 3.2 km from New Town Hall and 3.2 km from Mariensäule. The accommodation offers karaoke and a shared kitchen.

The hostel features certain rooms that include a safety deposit box, and each room has a private bathroom with a shower.

I've stayed in many hostels, hotels, b&bs etc. and Wombat hit all the marks. The bunks are comfy with a lot of privacy, good bathrooms in each room, great common spaces, super friendly staff, and a perfect location near Munich ostbahnhof. A hostel I would happily return to or recommend to others

Receptionist, whose name is Sebastian, is super helpful, kind, and empathetic. When I arrived to the hostel, it was heavily snowing outside and I felt very cold. He offered me a warm tea, which was truly kind and considerate. He also gave me tips on where to travel and how to take a train to the airport. Room is very warm, clean, and comfortable to stay. View is nice and breakfast is delicious. I think hostel is really nice for its price! I will stay here again when I visit Munich

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great location, a little out of the city but lots of public transport. We used lime scooters to get into the city and the football game. Ubers are always about and cheaper than a local taxi. Lovely hotel and staff.

    Loved the beds! Very comfortable and the fan was amazing. Nice and clean. Massive place! Unfortunately I got there late and didn’t get to see all of the communal areas but the cafe/bar area was nice. Quiet, noise from outside doesn’t affect hostel despite there being lots of bars just outside the entrance. Would come back here to explore properly another time, looked great for meeting new people!

    Location was excellent, ideal for backpackers and budget travelers. The vibe inside the hostel was very cool, warm receptionists, smiling stuffs and travelers, overall cleanliness was very good. There is not much to complain except number of toilets and shower places in a floor. It produces some rush in the morning. Otherwise, an excellent choice for budget travelers.

    Staff was very welcoming and friendly. It was first time in dormitory for me. I liked how there is separate bathroom for rooms because I do not like to share with everyone in the hostel. Bathroom and bed were very clean and well managed. Mattress was good - no bed bugs. Enough space to fit even large luggage and small safety lockers by every bed to keep your valuable goods. I liked how clean it was.

    Great location. But lockers were so bad, you needed to either rent a lock for 1 EUR/day plus 10 EUR deposit the lockers do not work with small padlocks that usual backpackers carry. Capacity was full despite covid and there is no kitchen. But for the price, very clean and tidy hostel.
