a swell camping ground in munich
by forshy1 about the tent @ munich
we stayed here for 2 nites during june 2006. though it got quite cold in the evening, the reservation office was extremely generous with their blankets. (they supply you w/mats & blankets) not being booked to capacity might have allowed them to do so. we stayed in the big tent where you scope out a place to set up camp, unroll the sleeping bag, drop the bags, and go back out to play. they have ping pong tables, tons of places to sit & chill, their own beergarten, a fire pit (which is crackling every nite) and a place to play some futbol. the bathroom facilities were well kept and had tons of hot water to go round. outside of the bathroom facilities, they have solar heated water where folks could do a bit of laundry; they have a clothesline to assist with the drying stage. in addition to the big tent, if you bring your own tent they've got room for you to set it up or you might be interested in their smaller tent which has beds. in the big tent, they have lockers. you just need to bring a lock. keep in mind that if they are fully booked, there may not be enough lockers. we went during the FIFA games and had no problems though. and the staff...... very nice folks!

Looking for central, cheap hostels in Munich
by efrat_g
Hi!
I'll be in Munich for about a week in the first days of October.
I'm looking for central, nice & cheap hostels in Munich, somewhere pleasent you've been to, and most importantly in a good location.
I'd also be happy to hear about good online guides to the city.

One of the best hostels in Munich is the Euro Youth Hotel with dorms in high season at £13 a night. I've stayed here, and it's pretty clean and has a good vibe going. It's near anything you'd want to see, however I found it to be pretty loud, and after a days traveling this could be somewhat annoying.
However i've heard great things from friends about a place called 'The Tent Munich' hostel which describes itself as the cheapest hostel in munich. It's a little odd though, it's like a campsite... 100 bed dorms! But if you're on a tight budget then this is the one.
Good luck and safe travels.

Hi!
You won't be lucky with a nice and cheap hostel in the first days of October I fear. The Oktoberfest is still on then and hostels are probably booked out already or don't take any reservations at all in advance for this time. With a little luck you find a decent hotel on the outskirts of town for an ok price at this time.
So if you have a chance to come at another time (if it's not the Oktoberfest you are mainly coming for), you should think about postponing your trip. Oktoberfest is on from 20 September to 5 October.
Hope this helps!

Oops I forgot. If you chose to come before or after Oktoberfest I can recommend Wombat's hostel next to the main station. It's modern, new and very friendly.

Or the Hotel Senefelder which is right across the street from Wombat's. Very reasonably priced except for during Oktoberfest.
