MEININGER Hotel Zürich Greencity

MEININGER Hotel Zürich Greencity is a hostel-style hotel at Maneggstrasse 41, in the Green City district of southern Zürich, Switzerland, offering both dormitory beds and private rooms. Green City is a modern, sustainability-focused urban district in the Sihl valley, built on a former industrial site, with contemporary buildings, offices and apartments set among green space and the Sihl river. The nearby Manegg station provides S-Bahn connections to the main station in roughly fifteen minutes, so the Old Town, the Bahnhofstrasse and the lake remain easily accessible even though the hotel lies outside the central area. The district's position at the foot of the Albis hills also gives quick access to woodland walks. Among the cheapest places to stay in Zürich, the property has listed nightly rates of roughly CHF 40 to CHF 130, which makes it a favourite with backpackers, school groups, young travellers and anyone watching their budget in an expensive country. Room types include Dormitory Beds and Private Double Rooms, which allows solo travellers and couples to choose according to their needs. Listed amenities are wifi, lockers and a shared lounge, which provides a social space for meeting other guests. The brand is known for combining a hostel's low prices and communal atmosphere with hotel-style private rooms and a modern design. Self-catering is usually possible in shared areas, and nearby shops serve basic needs, though restaurant choices are more limited than in the centre. Visitors should allow travel time for sightseeing, and a Zürich public-transport ticket is advisable for stays based here. Dormitory beds in summer and during major events book out, so reserving ahead is recommended.
