We, from Thailand and Indonesia, went to Koln for New Year and stay at the Meininger in Koln. We were so impressed about everything there! ... The room and bathroom are clean. Breakfast was great. Staffs were friendly, and some were so cute (esp. the girl at the reception on Tuesday).

On New Year's eve, we couldn't find a place to stay and it was extremely cold outside, but the staff was so nice and let us stay in the bar for all night before we catch the train back to the Netherlands in the early morning.

Thank you for everything.

Would definitely recommend this hostel. Within reasonable distance of all attractions in Berlin via the easy to use s- Bahn train system. However i wouldnt use the directions given with the hostel, much easier to ask at an information desk.
Lovely hostel however, friendly staff and clean rooms. I would stay here again

This is a lovely hostel, with friendly staff and it is very clean,
It is a little difficult to find with the instructions given from the booking, however once you find it, it is a good distance from all good places to visit in Berlin.
I would stay here again!

I stayed at the Meininger hostel on Tempelhofer Ufer over Easter 2006 and again in early August 2006.
Both times I was travelling alone and booked a single room.
First time I had a ground floor room which was very easy to access direct from the street, without going into the hostel proper. This room had one single bed.
Second time I was on the second floor (two flights up) in a larger room with two single beds.
The rooms are very modern, if spartan. Cleanliness is excellent.
For a continental breakfast the selection is so-so: cereals, toast, cheese, cold meats, yogurt, fruit, juice, tea and coffee.
The service was at all times fantastic - very helpful staff.
There are three Meininger hostels in Berlin; I chose this one because it's the smallest and cosiest, and all rooms have private bathrooms. The main hostel, directly over the canal, is massive with much more of a typical hostel vibe.
The location is excellent - about a 10-15 minute walk to Potsdamer Platz, and about 10 minutes to the restaurants and cafes of the southern part of Kreuzberg.
I'd definitely stay here again.
