Top Cheap Munich Hotels and Accommodations

Munich hotels generally charge some pretty scary prices! If you're on a limited budget, it is not easy to find a nice, yet central accommodation.

Most cheap hostels in Munich are located around the Hauptbahnhof (central station). This is very convenient, because you can reach all major attractions by walking and don't need to spend on public transport.
On the other hand, the area around Hauptbahnhof is not the best one... but keeping in mind that Munich is one of the safest cities anywhere in the world, this shouldn't scare you too much.

Just keep an eye on your belongings when walking around. But, you'd do this anyway, right ?
