In-Depth Review
Rooms and decor
B&B Hotel Graz-Hbf is the Graz branch of a European budget chain you'll find across Germany, Austria and France — a clear, predictable standard with no unpleasant surprises. Rooms run to the familiar B&B template: small but consistently clean, with basic furniture that actually works, a comfortable bed and a tidy, well-kept bathroom. Wi-Fi covers the whole building. Most reviews are happy with the quality at this price, but don't expect extras like a kettle, an in-room fridge or a full toiletry set. The code-based check-in in place of a key card gets singled out as fast and convenient — you don't wait for staff. The look is simple and clean, the modern-chain style.
Food and amenities
Breakfast is offered as a paid add-on rather than included in the base rate. It's decent for the B&B standard — not a standout, but enough — and a supermarket within walking distance is the cheaper alternative. Underground parking sits across the street at a reasonable price. There's no fitness center, spa or restaurant on site, and the front desk keeps regular hours. Larger groups stay here at times, which can make the common areas livelier than usual.
Location and getting there
The 3-minute walk to Graz Hauptbahnhof is the main selling point. The Railjet to Vienna, regional trains across Austria and the Airport Bus to Graz airport all leave from this station. Trams connect to the old town in roughly 10 to 15 minutes, and there are several restaurants and supermarkets within walking distance. The area around the station is urban and lively, though it doesn't have the old-town or riverside character of other hotels in this list.
Things to know before booking
This is a budget room, and it shows in the details. Rooms are small and short on extras — no kettle, no fridge and no full set of toiletries, so pack what you need. There's no fitness center, spa or on-site restaurant, and the front desk doesn't run 24 hours. You may also catch some noise from other guests, since larger tour groups pass through and can make the shared spaces busier than a quiet stay would suggest. On safety, the station district is fine, and code door locks plus CCTV in the common areas add a layer of reassurance.
Our take
B&B Hotel Graz-Hbf is the best fit for solo travelers and backpackers who want a private room at a low price, or anyone connecting through multiple cities who needs a base right by the station. If you're using the hotel mainly to sleep and shower before heading out for the day, this is the most cost-effective, dependable choice at this rate — starting around $89 a night. Just go in knowing the rooms are small and the extras are few, and it delivers exactly what it promises.

Insider Tips
- Use B&B Hotel's online check-in to skip the front desk completely — register before you arrive and you'll get the room code sent to your phone, which saves real time.
- The BILLA supermarket is within walking distance — grab water, snacks and breakfast items there instead of paying for the hotel's add-on breakfast.
- Ask about the underground parking across the street when you book if you're driving; it's reasonably priced and parking near the station is otherwise tight.
