Wombat’s City Hostel Leipzig

Leipzig has a unique charm, blending the timeless melodies of its famous local, Johann Sebastian Bach, with a thriving modern art scene. The city boasts stunning historic architecture, lush parks, fascinating museums, and bustling markets. Wombat’s City Hostel Leipzig is perfectly located in the heart of the city, right in the beautiful Waldstraßenviertel neighborhood and just a short stroll from St. Thomas' Church.

why
Wombat's leipzig?

Like everything in Leipzig, our City Hostel also has a remarkable history. We've infused the popular former "Sleepy Lion Hostel & Apartments" with Wombat’s signature look and feel, creating a space where history meets modern comfort. Now, we welcome you to an inspiring house where you can relax with a cup of coffee under high stucco ceilings or step outside to explore the city—with many attractions just minutes away!
