Hostel in Strasbourg's Neudorf and Port du Rhin district, Grand Est, France.
Auberge de Jeunesse HI Strasbourg 2 Rives is a youth hostel on Allée des Marelles, in the Neudorf and Port du Rhin district of Strasbourg, in the Grand Est region of France. The name refers to the two banks of the Rhine, and the hostel's position near the river places it close to the Franco-German border, with the Rhine footbridge and the German town of Kehl within easy reach. The Port du Rhin area is south-east of the Grande Île, and trams connect it to the Cathedral, Place Kléber and the main railway station in roughly fifteen to twenty minutes. As a Hostelling International member property, it follows the HI model of affordable shared accommodation, and the listed room types are Dormitory Bed and Private Room. Listed amenities include wifi, a shared lounge and a garden, which provide space for socialising and relaxing. Details about a restaurant, spa, pool or fitness area are not available, so none is claimed; meal arrangements, breakfast options and kitchen access should be confirmed with the hostel. The neighbourhood offers everyday shops and cafés, while the old town and the Krutenau district have many winstubs and student-friendly restaurants serving tarte flambée, choucroute and other Alsatian dishes at modest prices. Rates generally range from about €25 to €75 per night, depending on the room type and season, and booking early is advisable for the Christmas markets and summer. The service style is informal and sociable, suited to backpackers, school and youth groups, cyclists and budget travellers. Cycling along the Rhine and the canals is popular, so the location suits those exploring by bike. No website is recorded in the available data, so reservations should be made through the Hostelling International channels or by contacting the hostel directly.
