Designer hotel with a little bit too much design..
We travelled to Leipzig for a one-nighter, and I selected the Meininger Hotel for its close proximity to the main rail station. Leave the station through the East hall, and the hotel is just one block away on the opposite side of the square. Upon arrival I was surprised that the hotel lobby and the bar and breakfast areas were a lot narrower than they look on the photos. Our hotel room, although meant to be top modern and with a slick design, felt narrow and -in my own humble opinion- had the charme of an overdesigned youth hostel. The bathroom was very good though, and the mattresses firm and comfortable. One noteworthy observation: The lobby area had an odor of sewage on both days, when we arrived and when we checked out. I am sure it’s not really the hotel’s fault as there is a big construction site nearby but to those with a sensitive nose it’s definitely a turn-off. In total, I would not stay at the hotel again, but rather look for another one of which there are plenty in the downtown area close to the rail station. On the plus side: The hop-on-hop-off sightseeing busses start just a few steps around the corner on Goethestrasse. Auerbachs Keller and all other downtown attractions are just an easy few minutes walk away.

Perfect stay in Leipzig
The location is perfect, very close to the main train station as well as city centre. If you dont want to eat breakfast in the hotel, there are great beagle shops around the corner. Staff was very friendly. Room was excellent, clean and quiet.

Excellent central location, clean, comfortable
Great location near the central station. There was construction on the building directly across during my stay (July 2019), but it wasn't ever too noisy. Rooms are comfortable and clean, lobby is inviting and there's even a shared kitchen/fridge which was handy. A supermarket is only a block away, bars and restaurants are nearby, as is the main square. Would stay here again.

A Hidden Find
Quiet, large room. Friendly, helpful staff. Appreciated access to the business center computer terminal and self-serve laundry. Easy walking distance to the main railroad and light rail stations. Note that the hotel is on a side-street (though easy to find).

Not great
It used to be a hostile, small rooms with tight quarters. Very noisy, little sound barrier between rooms or floors. The street is noisy until late hours and because there is no air conditioning or even a fan, had to leave the window open.

Pros: new, trendy, contemporary renovation. shared kitchen with induction cooktop, fridge, microwave and (paid) laundry/drier. Good amentaties/toiletries. Electrical outlets conveniently located by both sides of the bed. Shower contains water very well, no water splashes onto the floor outside. Lots of mirrors good for putting on makeup. Cons: beware - sound-proofing is quite poor. Can hear next-room quests (maybe children) banging on the floor and playing with light switches very clearly - creepy and scary at night. Bed not so comfortable. Shower space quite small even for a petite person - can barely turn around. Shower water temperature is unstable at times but tolerable. Bottom line: good value but not very comfortable. Personally, if budget permits, will likely choose a better place.

I was in Leipzig for a 5 day conference. This hotel is not luxury, but got everything I needed. Bed is comfortable (I like hard mattress better than soft one). The room is not very spacious, but enough for 1 person. Location is among the best, 5 min walk away from the train station. The only downside is there is no AC in the room. It should not be a major issue since Europe is ridiculously hot this summer.

Good value in central location
This hotel is 5-10 minutes walk from the main train station and the Markt SBahn station. The rooms are a nice size by European standards for a budget friendly priced hotel. They have some very efficient shelving that leaves plenty of places to store bags and to hang clothes and jackets. The shower stall is actually a small tub, and is a bit bigger than typically found in German budget hotels. The WiFi is fast, open and easy to connect. Breakfast is moderately priced if not included, and has quite a good selection and quality. There is a bar, but no restaurant outside of breakfast. There is a customer kitchen where you can cook for yourself, and there are ample restaurants within walking distance. There is a washing machine and dryer in the customer kitchen that you can use for a fee. The desk issues an electronic token that you scan on the machine, but be advised we had trouble with this. Overall, this is a clean comfortable hotel with a 24hr desk and is English friendly. We'd definitely stay here again.

Reliable cost effective option
Meininger is somewhat between a barebone hostel and a regular hotel. This Leipzig location, same as others, is efficient, clean, and convenient. Check-in was fast. Staff was friendly and helpful. There is a kitchen and laundry facility to use for a fee, which is good for travellers like me. Room was small but adequate. We had a private room of four beds only for two of us and it was nice. Walking from Hbf is about 7 minutes and a lot of busses and trams stop by, making this a perfect base to explore Leipzig.

Not suitable for summer stay
+ Very closed to the Main train station and located in very city centre. - Noisy and room was quite small. - No air conditioner during 33 degrees was really hot, not suitable for stay during summer time. - We paid for breakfast but the breakfast room was absolutely no staff control, everyone can just walk in and take a seat and eat. Was very very crowded and needed to wait for seats.

Lady who checked me in was very friendly. Room was spotlessly clean. Bed was comfy. Very smart lobby reception area. Great location near the main station. Had a few beers from the hotel bar when got back late after looking round the city. 2 ladies serving very polite and helpful . I travelled all over Germany in 7 days staying at 7 hotels and this was the best hotel I stayed in and the cheapest ! Didnt have breakfast so cant comment. I will 100% be staying here again

No air-conditioning!!! No fans!!!
Location is really good, however the rooms have no air-conditioning!!!!!! I asked twice for my windows to be opened but it wasn't done. I asked for a single room and got 4 beds! Also, my room was facing a construction site, so on top of getting no sleep due to the heat , the works were just over the top to cope with. I got no sleep and I'll never be back.
