Artistic interior design
One of the most impressive things about United Hostel Frankfurt is the massive collection of artworks hanging on its colorful walls throughout the hostel, especially at the hallways. All the paintings were bought and decorated by the hostel’s owner to create an artistic, cozy yet vibrant atmosphere. As this is quite a new hostel (founded in 2012), the manager is still working on improving the decoration and facilities. However, it’s evident that United Hostel is one of the most modern accommodation in the area.
Lively atmosphere
From the reception to hallways, there are plenty of LED digital lightings nicely surrounding and blending in with the paintings. This lights up the space and help to ‘warm up’ the atmosphere during the cold winter months. The big Chill-out Lounge allows guests to hang out, play pool or have a drink and chat together.
The reception team is usually smiley and helpful, creating a great customer-friendly spirit. As you are in Germany, don’t forget to get yourself a beer from the United Lobby Bar, which is visible at the reception as soon as you walk in.
Impressive Old English Theater
What probably surprises guests most is the massive Old English Theater lying at the corner of the hostel behind a tiny door close to the entrance. The Theater offers a wide range of performances each and every week, from movie night to discotheque for dance-lovers with live band up on the stage. The locals can rent this area, which offers modern facilities of lighting and sound system. The theater can fit more than a hundred people.
High quality rooms at reasonable prices
United Hostel can fit up to over 300 people. With the price per dorm’s bed starting from as low as 19 EUR (about 20 USD), you would get access to the most modern hostel facilities in Frankfurt. There is a sink in each and every room. Showers are available in each floor and very much similar to that in hotels. Towel and lockers can be borrowed from the reception with a deposit.
Excellent meals served along
Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served at additional cost. The chill-out lounge is connected to a self-made kitchen. Thus, it’s possible to cook your own supper while mingling with your travel mate and new friends. United Hostel Frankfurt is a compatible choice of accommodation for all sorts of travelers, from party-loving backpackers to those who are into rather calm and quiet atmosphere. Thanks to the staff’s hospitality and helpfulness, you would feel comfortable and, at the same time, enthusiastic during your stay here.
