Nepomuk's Bed & Breakfast Backpackers Hostel Innsbruck

This is a great hidden gem! The inconvenience of booking by phone was made up for by the location, and cleanliness of the the rooms. I only stayed one night, but I recommended to a friend that visits Innsbruck mornlften, and didn't know about it.

Pros: - affordable - perfect location (super central in old town) - bedsheets/towels provided (I'd recommend guests bring their own though as they only provide one small hand towel each) Cons: - archaic way of booking and managing (all paper, no emails, no written confirmation of booking, don't always answer phone) - cash only in a city where ATMs charge at least 5 euros for withdrawal. - no actual reception, it's just a bakery where the check in staff was unpleasant. Felt like the main focus of the is the bakery not the hostel. - flimsy pillows - poor quality mattresses and one top bunk bed frame beds had some screws sticking out If your only concerns are budget and location then this is the place for you, otherwise.. I don't recommend it.

What a lovely place to stay. The hostel ist really well located within Innsbrucks city centre. Still it's quiet during the night. Also there is a bakery right below the hostel. The rooms are cozy but still spacious. The owner is really sweet and has good recommendations. Taken all that the price is good, as both booking and accomodation are comfortable. Also super convenient to book via phone. I'd even recommend it over booking.com.

One of the coolest places I have stayed at. We were greeted at the door by a lovely woman who welcomed us with open arms giving us iced cold beers after a long day. The service is awesome the area is so lovely and we can’t say any bad things about it. We have stayed in about 10 hostels all over Europe and this one is the best by far! Great people make a great experience.

Besides the shower being lukewarm on a cold day, maybe I also just came at the wrong time because my experience here was unfortunately a little bit disappointing and frustrating. And maybe it’s my fault but I did have to give feedback because it’s not that I think the manager didn’t speak English well, in fact it’s very well, but the communication was not clear nor effective and a bit of a confusion that could have been prevented. I understand the difficulty of being in charge of the front bakery and a hostel at the same time. But there doesn’t seem to be a clear system and the manager was making excuses about the bad service instead of apologizing. Here is what happened: I came around 4:00pm to check in, immediately I asked the manager where I could do my laundry since I just came back from a crazy 3 day hike. She said “you give it to us and we do it for you because we have a personal washing machine”. It’s 10 euro per load, wash and dried. Perfect. I asked how long would it take? And she said “you are checking out the day after tomorrow so that’s good, it will be done by tomorrow.” I said “ok, do I need to come pick it up here at the front desk?” And she said “we will bring it to your room”. It was very cold that week and I had given her most of my long sleeves so I was hoping I could get it done in the morning. The next day, at 9:30am I went back to ask around how long will my laundry be done, just so I know when to come get it. She said they haven’t started it yet and the reason is because her cleaning lady isn’t there yet. I asked when she would come and she said “10am”, and I had to ask again “so when would it be done?” And she said “in the afternoon”. It was so cold outside that I had to take back some of my long sleeves and pants before they started it. So 3pm rolls around, and I was starting to feel weird about how long it was taking to do a single load of laundry. But I decided to be a bit patient and went out for a bit and returned at 6pm. I came back to the front and the manager was taking her time talking to some customers about their trip to Spain, not even acknowledging me, that I had to pull a chair up and sat down for a good 5 minutes right in front of her before I realized that there is just me and those customers in the bakery. Everything was closed. I stood up finally and she then had to interrupt the customers. I finally got my laundry. I told her I thought it was going to be delivered and she said “well the cleaning lady didn’t know which room you were in and I forgot too”, when I feel like the logistics of hostels is they should AT LEAST know who is in which room if they have my information on the system and were the one who offered to deliver the laundry. I was just following orders. My feedback: 1) ask when the travelers need their laundry done and if it won’t be done on time they should have the option to do laundry somewhere else with the suggestion of the manager. 2) write the name of the person down on the laundry load with the room number so the cleaning lady knows too. 3) don’t offer to bring the laundry up and let the travelers know to check back in, since they are making excuses with how busy they are (I don’t mind going to the front myself, I’m not the one stuck behind the counter). I made the mistake of trusting someone else to do my laundry. It took over 24 hours when I could have just done it myself getting to the laundromat in 5 minutes with public transportation. She said she didn’t want me to wait for my laundry… but with their service it took way too long and very very unreliable.

My daughter and I stayed only one night and wished we could have extended as this place is a little gem. The staff are so friendly, the location is perfect with great facilities and very clean. It is set in the old town with easy access to (2min walk) the hop on hop off bus. 10min walk to the cable cars to visit the alps and various museums. The cake shop downstairs is a wonderful place to start the morning with breakfast included. This was also my first experience at hostel style accommodation and I loved every minute of it. This is a must if your looking for cheap clean friendly and safe rooms. Thankyou nepomuks.

The location is outstanding! In the heart of the old town, a 1 minute walk away from the famous Golden Roof. You can really reach everything by foot - nice restaurants, bars or museums and churches. The B&B itself is very clean and directly located upon Cafe "Munding". The bathrooms were renovated a short time ago, so they are quite new. There's a kitchen where you can make yourself (free) coffee or tea. Of course you can cook here. An absolutly highlight is the breakfast. You get your breakfast downstairs at the lovely Cafe "Munding". You only get cheese, sausages or eggs if you pay extra, but you won't need it. Because you get the outstanding cakes and cookies from the Cafe (Of course there is a buffet full of fruits, vegetables, cereals, cream cheese, marmelades, bread,....)!!||And the price is top! You only have to leave your car in one of the parking garages (10€ per night). But the walking distance is only 5-10min.

This place its incredible! The location is just perfect, exactly in the middle of the city, super clean and affordable, has even views to the mountains! Breakfast is included and the owner is very kind and nice. So happy I've found this place! Many hugs!
