Ladies don your dirndl and leave the leather shorts to the men

1st October 2012 Print

HostelsClub.com, the budget accommodation provider, has put together an amazing last minute deal to experience Oktoberfest. Prices start at £30.00 per person per night.

Oktoberfest is the quintessential Bavarian experience. Beer served in litre steins-hefted ten at a time by barmaids, pretzels bigger than your head and traditional oompah bands.

How to embrace the spirit of Oktoberfest? Get kitted out in traditional dress. Men wear the leather shorts with suspenders known as lederhosen. Ladies wear a dirndl, the bosom-busting dress that comes in endless styles, colours and lengths. Make a circuit of the fairgrounds and find a tent that best suits your taste buds. And always remember to cheers and look all your table mates in the eyes when you hear “Prost!”

With Oktoberfest proving popular with travellers, accommodation often gets booked up months in advance. Find last minute accommodation for the ultimate beer festival with Hostival, a nomadic, festival hostel. Built only for Oktoberfest, the pop up hostel can accommodate up to 500 guests within safe and secure 12 bed dormitories. It also offers toilet and shower facilities. Hostival is located close to the Oktoberfest fairgrounds, great for those who want to keep the party going afterhours.

Located in the heart of city, the grounds are well situated to take a break from beer to explore Munich. Stroll along the Marienplatz, watch surfers in the English Gardens or venture out on a day trip to the Alps.

Travel is valid for the duration of Oktoberfest, 22 September 2012 until 7 October 2012.
