Our offerings for families
Travel Season – Family Time
If you're planning a family vacation in Frankfurt, look no further: a central location, kid-friendly rooms, nearby play areas, the Main River right outside the door, the zoo, science museums, excellent public transportation, and family discounts. And don't worry if the kids get a little loud.
A family vacation should be a shared experience where fun takes center stage and stress is kept to a minimum. A little (weekend) adventure. Discovering and enjoying new places. Relaxing moments together as a couple or with the kids. The focus is on moments of well-being: breakfast together, delicious smells wafting from the kitchen, cozy evenings with games or stories. We strive to create a soothing atmosphere where everyone feels at ease and their needs are respected. And if the kids would rather run down the wide hallways than walk — that’s perfectly fine, too.
We offer places that provide space for shared activities while also allowing for moments of quiet relaxation. Delicious food becomes an integral part of the vacation. The result is a harmonious, stress-free time filled with laughter, trust, and wonderful memories.
And families stay at a particularly affordable rate: Parents with minor children pay the June rate for the respective room category for overnight stays with breakfast. Children up to age 5 stay and have breakfast for free, and for children ages 6 through 14, you pay 50% of the regular price for room and breakfast. Even large families can find suitable rooms at our youth hostel.

Central location
Family time in Frankfurt!
This modern home is the perfect starting point for exploring the city’s highlights with children of all ages. Located in a very central spot right on the Main River, many attractions — such as the “New Old Town,” the Main Tower with its observation deck at a height of 200 meters, and the Museum Embankment with the Film Museum, the Communication Museum, and many other museums — can be easily explored on foot. If your feet are tired, you can relax on a boat ride along the Main and watch the famous Frankfurt skyline glide by. There is much to discover in Frankfurt. And the city’s large parks offer plenty of space for children who want to run around and play.

Additional benefits
Fun
Recreational activities on-site
When you stay at a youth hostel in a big city, the focus is usually on the city itself. But even if it rains or you’ve had enough of museums, there are plenty of things to do right here at the hostel. A 24/7 common room, giant chess, table tennis, foosball, and a play area for the little ones.
Plus, plenty of space to play and hang out—even outside your room. And in the evening, parents can relax with a glass of wine or a soda on our Main River island with a view of the skyline, without having to leave the building.
Catering
Full board & packed lunches available upon request
You can choose between just breakfast or the full meal plan. We offer lunch and dinner (both hot meals) as well as packed lunches for an exciting day in the city. And if you’re still hungry after that, our well-stocked vending machines are there for you.
