Party Hostels in Frankfurt

Frankfurt’s nightlife doesn’t just revolve around bankers and business suits. Head to **Zeil**, the city’s main shopping street, and you’ll find it transforms after dark into a hub for bars and late-night spots. Just off it, **Kleinmarkthalle** stays open late on Fridays, serving cheap drinks and snacks to a mix of backpackers and locals. The hostel scene here is small but sharp: places like **SF Hostel** on Mainzer Landstraße put you within walking distance of the action without breaking the bank.

The city’s pub crawls are a reliable way to dive straight into the scene. Meet at the **Justitia Brunnen** near Römer at 21:45 on Fridays and Saturdays, and you’ll get a taste of Frankfurt’s mix of underground clubs and no-frills bars. Don’t expect Berlin-level chaos, but do expect a crowd that’s up for a laugh and a drink.

Meininger - Airport

from 21.00 / night
Verified December 2025

Frankfurt’s nightlife doesn’t just revolve around bankers and business suits. Meininger - Airport is in Bahnhofsviertel, which puts it at the start of that circuit.

Which Area Should You Stay In?

How Frankfurt's nightlife zones break down

Bahnhofsviertel

This is where Frankfurt’s nightlife kicks off. The streets around **Elbestraße** and **Moselstraße** are packed with bars, clubs, and late-night kebab shops. It’s gritty in places, but it’s also where you’ll find some of the city’s best underground venues. Hostels here put you right in the action, but it can get noisy: pack earplugs.

Best for: Underground clubs and budget hostels

Nordend

A more local feel than the city centre, **Nordend** is where Frankfurt’s young professionals and students hang out. **Berger Straße** is the main drag, lined with cafés, wine bars, and cocktail spots. It’s quieter than Bahnhofsviertel but still lively, with a mix of dive bars and trendy hangouts. A 15-minute walk from the city centre.

Best for: Cocktail bars and local hangouts

Sachsenhausen

Across the **Main River**, this neighbourhood is famous for its **Apfelwein** (apple wine) taverns and traditional German pubs. **Textorstraße** is the heart of the action, with places like **Wagner** and **Zum Gemalten Haus** serving cheap drinks and hearty food. It’s a 20-minute walk from the city centre or take the S-Bahn to **Lokalbahnhof**.

Best for: Traditional pubs and apple wine

Practical Info

🚆
Getting around Frankfurt
Frankfurt’s public transport is efficient and covers all the nightlife hotspots. A single ticket costs €3.20, or grab a 24-hour pass for €9.50 if you plan to hop between neighbourhoods. The U-Bahn and trams run until around 1:30 am, after which night buses take over. Walking is often quicker in the city centre: most hostels, bars, and clubs are within 20 minutes of each other.
💰
Budget for a night out
Hostel dorms start at €15–€20 per night, but prices jump during trade fairs. A beer in a bar costs €4–€5, while club entry ranges from €5–€12, often including a drink. If you’re on a tight budget, stick to happy hours (usually 5–8 pm) or join a pub crawl for bundled drinks and entry.
🍻
Best time to go out
Frankfurt’s nightlife peaks on **Fridays and Saturdays**, when pub crawls run and clubs stay open until 5 or 6 am. Weeknights are quieter, but student bars around **Bockenheim** (near the university) keep things lively. Avoid August: many locals leave for holidays, and some venues shut down.
📍
Where to stay
The **Bahnhofsviertel** district is the epicentre for backpackers, with hostels like **Five Elements** and **MEININGER** within a 10-minute walk of the main station. For a more local vibe, try **Nordend**, where cafés double as evening hangouts. Stay near **Konstablerwache** if you want to be in the middle of the action.
🚨
Safety tips
Frankfurt is generally safe, but keep an eye on your belongings in crowded bars and around the main station. Avoid walking alone along the **Main River** late at night: stick to well-lit streets like **Zeil** or **Berger Straße**. If you’re out late, pre-book a taxi or use the **FreeNow** app (€10–€15 for most rides within the centre).
🍽️
Cheap eats near nightlife
Grab a **Frankfurter Würstchen** (€3–€4) from a street stand or dive into **Kleinmarkthalle** for late-night snacks. **Döner kebabs** are a post-club staple: try **Mustafa’s Gemüse Kebap** on **Zeil** for €5.50. If you’re craving something heartier, **Bockenheimer Warte** has student-friendly cafés serving €6–€8 meals until midnight.
