Stuttgart hostels

Stuttgart is a vibrant, growing city with many students, a buzzing nightlife, and an artistic atmosphere, making it the perfect city to stay in a hostel. Travelers will find that a hostel in Stuttgart provides the same basic amenities as a hotel, but often has a more welcoming, independent feeling and offers a unique chance to meet fellow travelers in a relaxed environment. Hostels here are also usually a much cheaper option than the many business hotels located around the city.

Many hostels in Stuttgart, such as Hostel Alex 30 and Inter-Hostel, are located near the city center, meaning that they are conveniently placed for major coach and rail links, as well as the city’s subway system.
