Anyone been to Campsite Innsbruck Kranebitten
 

Hi,

I will be going to Innsbruck this summer and finding a cheap hostel is hard. So, i have found this campsite as a cheaper alternative.

However, I have never stayed at a campsite and need to know what it is like and how it works.

Also have these questions:

1) Are they in tents or caravans?
2) shower facilities is this outsdoors?
3) what about breakfast
4) and heating?
5) do you pay for anything extra?
6) anything else i need to know?
7) What equipment do i need to bring?
8) is this place easy to get to?

look forward to hearing from you

hey sorry don't even know what country its in!!But have heard really good thing about Plus campsites through europe (mostly italy i think?) if that helps anyone!!worth a google if your heading towards italy atleast!

Innsbruck, so Austria, right?? I was there on a "tour" once, so I was in a hotel. In retrospect it does strike me as less hostel/backpacker friendly.

Good luck!

Yes - its in Austria! anyone with any help?

I have been to Innsbruck twice and stayed at two different hostels.

There is the HI hostel which is a little bit out of town (but can get the bus there). It feels sterile and a bit like an instituition but is the cheapest option. The lockout period during the day can be a bit of a nuisance.

Alternatively, there is St Nikolaus which is more central but more expensive. It's a real hit and miss afair. The rooms are a bit crammed and bathroom facilities not great. The owners are a bit strange including the old fat German guy (in his defence he drove us to a nightclub in the middle of the night!). They have an underground bar called the 'Iglu' which is cool to hang out in.
