Introducing the Austrian Railways EuroNight train from Cologne to
Vienna...
This was originally a German Railways' City Night Line train, but
on 13 December 2009 it became an
Austrian Railways (ÖBB) 'EuroNight' sleeper train,
with sleeping-car, couchettes & seats. The
sleeping-car has compact 1 & 2 bed
compartments with washbasin, plus two deluxe
compartments with 1, 2 or 3 beds
plus private shower & toilet. The
sleeper berths come fully made up with sheets and
duvets, and all sleeper passengers get mineral
water in the evening and a light breakfast served
in their compartment next morning. Towels & toiletries are
provided, including shampoo and shower gel in the
deluxe sleepers. In the more economical
couchettes, you can book a couchette in a cheaper
6-berth compartment or a less-crowded 4-berth
compartment. Each couchette is provided with
sheet, blanket and pillow, and couchette passengers get
a small bottle of mineral water and a light
breakfast in the morning with tea or coffee. When waiting for
the northbound sleeper train at Vienna
Westbahnhof, if you have a sleeper ticket (as
opposed to couchette or seat ticket), you can use
the first class ÖBB Club Lounge, with
complimentary drinks.
More pictures & information about this EuroNight train.
1 or 2 bed sleeper:
The most comfortable option. Standard
sleepers have a washbasin, deluxe sleepers a private shower & toilet.
4 & 6-berth couchettes:
The economy option, ideal for families. Couchettes are basic padded
bunks with rug & pillow. This is a 6-berth
couchette.
Above: The
Austrian sleeping-car or 'schlafwagen'.
Sleeper & couchette
passengers receive a complimentary light breakfast
with tea or coffee in the morning.
This method involves two websites, so do a dry run on both
sites to check prices and availability before booking for
real. Anyone from any country can use
www.eurostar.com &
www.oebb.at,
not just UK residents.
Bookings open 90 days before departure, you can't book
before reservations open. Before starting to book, I
recommend noting down each specific train you want to book
using the train times recommended above, and the date of
departure. Obviously, remember that your date of
travel from Cologne back to Brussels will be the day
after your departure from Vienna to Cologne!
Step 1,
go to either
www.raileurope.co.uk
or
www.eurostar.com and book a ticket from London to Cologne
(shown as Koln on the Eurostar website) using the
train times on this page as a guide. It's
a good idea to try both websites, as one can be cheaper than the other. Tickets
can be posted to any UK address or collected at St Pancras
on departure.
Booking tip: If you don't see any sensibly-priced
London-Cologne through fares, try using
www.raileurope.co.uk
to book in two stages, first London-Brussels & back, then
Brussels-Cologne & back, as this can be cheaper.
Booking tip: You can also try the German
Railways website
www.bahn.de for booking your London-Cologne tickets, as they
offer 'London Spezial' fares from London to Cologne from
just 49 euros each way. However, you'll only
find these fares on journeys which involve the two or three
German ICE trains between Brussels & Cologne, not on
those involving Thalys. In the outward direction that
means leaving London much earlier (around 08:27/08:57) and
spending some time in Cologne, in the return direction it
means spending the morning in Cologne and leaving Cologne at
14:43 arriving London at 19:03.
Step 2,
go to the German Railways website,
www.bahn.de, and use the journey planner to book
from Cologne to 'Bratislava hl. st', looking for the option
which corresponds to the journey explained above, which is
shown with 2 changes, using the direct
EuroNight (EN) train from Cologne to Vienna and back then a
transfer in Vienna and a Vienna-Bratislava train.
It's important to select 'Bratislava hl. st.' and not
'BRATISLAVA' as the right option comes up only if you use
'Bratislava hl.st.'. It's better to book in one go
from Cologne to Bratislava rather than buy separate tickets
Cologne-Vienna and Vienna-Bratislava, because the 'spezial'
fare from Cologne to Bratislava is exactly the same price as
the 'spezial' fare on the same train to Vienna. You print out your own ticket.
If you have any trouble, just book Cologne to Vienna and buy
a separate ticket to Bratislava at the station when you get
to Vienna, although this will cost you 14 euros more each
way.
Stopover in Vienna? If you'd like a stopover of
anything up to 24 hours in Vienna, simply enter 'Vienna' in
the 'via' box and the number of hours in the 'stopover' box,
and you'll get the same cheap fares (if available) but with
a stopover in Vienna. If you want a longer stopover,
this mean buying separate tickets Cologne-Vienna and
Vienna-Bratislava.
Alternatively, you can also book this train using the Austrian railways website
www.oebb.at.
Click 'Englisch' at top right. Now click
'Online-Ticket' top left. Now look for the bottom left
'EURO-Night' square and click it. On the enquiry form,
enter departure station as 'Cologne' and arrival station as
'Vienna', your age and dates of travel. Click 'search
for offers'.
On the results page, you'll see a long list of possible
fares. Ignore the 'flexible' open tickets at the top.
Instead, look down the list of fares shown as 'valid on a
specific train' until you see one for 'Ticket to Wien
Westbahnhof TRAIN EN 421 from 20:05 to 09:04, for the type
of seat, couchette or sleeper that you want. Select
it, don't bother reading about their 'thrift tip'. You pay by credit card and print out your own
tickets. Easy! The prices shown on
www.oebb.at
are in euros, and are the total cost for all passengers
selected, not per person.
If you don't succeed in booking Cologne to Bratislava
all in one go, or you want to stop off for more than 24
hours in Vienna, you can easily buy a Vienna-Bratislava
ticket at the station when you get to Vienna for 14
euros, as no advance reservation is necessary, you just
buy a ticket and hop on. You can buy tickets to
Bratislava at any of the red ÖBB ticket machines using
your credit card or banknotes, you actually end up with
a day return but it's the same price as a one-way.
Or to save time at the station you can buy a ticket
online at www.oebb.at,
the Austrian Railways website, printing out your ticket
in .PDF format. Alternatively, you can buy
Vienna-Bratislava tickets at
www.raileurope.co.uk from £15 one-way, £30 return,
tickets sent to any UK address.
The easiest way to book train tickets from London to
Bratislava
is at
www.raileurope.co.uk,
because all the trains can be booked as a single
transaction on one UK-based website. If you don't live
in the UK, or want to book 4-berth couchettes (which
for some reason raileurope.co.uk can't do) book using
www.eurostar.com &
www.oebb.at
instead, see the next section. Bookings open 90 days
before departure, you can't book before reservations open.
Before starting to book, I recommend noting down each
specific train you want to book using the train times
recommended above, and the date of departure.
Obviously, remember that your date of travel from Cologne
back to Brussels will be the day after your departure
from Vienna!
Step 1, go to
www.raileurope.co.uk,
but resist the temptation to enter 'London' & 'Bratislava' as this won't find you the cheapest fares.
Instead, first enter 'Cologne' & 'Vienna' and your dates
of travel, look for the direct overnight train from Cologne
to Vienna, book the type of seat, couchette or sleeper you
want, do the same for the return journey, add these tickets
to your basket and click 'continue shopping'. Thanks
to the vagaries of the French reservation system,
www.raileurope.co.uk
won't book 4-berth couchettes only 6-berth ones, so if you
want 4-berth couchettes simply
book using
www.oebb.at instead, see the next section.
Step 2, still at
www.raileurope.co.uk,
now book the train from Brussels to Cologne & back, using
the train times above as your guide. Add this ticket
to your basket and click 'continue shopping'.
Step 3, still at
www.raileurope.co.uk,
now book the Eurostar from London to Brussels & back, using
the train times above as a guide. By all means take an
earlier Eurostar outwards, or a later one back, if it has
cheaper seats available or if you'd like to stop off in
Brussels. Add this ticket to your basket and proceed
to payment stage.
Tickets can be sent to any UK address (£2.25 fee) and
normally arrive within a couple of days.
There's a 2.5% credit card fee, so use a debit card if you
can. Only UK credit cards are accepted.
Step 4, you can buy a Vienna-Bratislava open ticket at
www.raileurope.co.uk
for £15 each way, but it's just as easy (and a fraction
cheaper) to buy it at the station in Vienna, for 14 euros. No
reservation is necessary, you just buy a ticket and hop on.
You can buy tickets to Bratislava at any of the red ÖBB
ticket machines using your credit card or banknotes, you
in fact end up with a day return but it's the same price as
a one-way.
Booking tip: It's worth comparing prices for the Cologne-Vienna
EuroNight train at both
www.raileurope.co.uk
&
www.oebb.at (see the section below)
as they can differ. It's also worth checking prices
from London to Cologne & back at
www.eurostar.com, as sometimes this is cheaper than
www.raileurope.co.uk.
Cologne is shown as 'Koln' on the Eurostar site.
Booking tip: You can also try the German
Railways website
www.bahn.de for booking your London-Cologne tickets, as they
offer 'London Spezial' fares from London to Cologne from
just 49 euros each way. However, you'll only
find these fares on journeys which involve the two or three
German ICE trains between Brussels & Cologne, not on
those involving Thalys. In the outward direction that
means leaving London much earlier (around 08:27/08:57) and
spending some time in Cologne, in the return direction it
means spending the morning in Cologne and leaving Cologne at
14:43 arriving London at 19:03.
You can book the
Eurostar, Thalys and EuroNight train by phone with a
number of UK agencies, including
Deutsche
Bahn's UK office on 08718 80 80 66 (lines open
09:00-20:00 Mon-Fri, 09:00-13:00 Sat & Sun, no booking

(1, 2 & 3-berth deluxe rooms with private shower & toilet,
and 1, 2 &
3-berth standard rooms with washbasin, there's a shower at
the end of the corridor for passengers in standard rooms,
and all rooms have power-points for laptop computers),
modern air-conditioned couchettes
(choose between a berth in a 4- or 6-berth compartment),
and ordinary seats (not recommended).
Inclusive fares are charged covering travel plus
sleeping accommodation. The sleeping-car fare includes
a light breakfast.
More
pictures and information about this train.
Travel tip: For a good meal in a classic
Parisian brasserie before boarding the sleeper train in
Paris, catch the earlier 14:04 Eurostar & dine at the
Brasserie Terminus Nord directly across the road
from the Gare du Nord. For a cooked breakfast in
Munich or evening meal before boarding the Paris-bound
sleeper on your return, try the typically Bavarian
Mongdratzerl restaurant, located in the hauptbahnhof
itself.
1, 2 or 3 bed sleeper:
The most comfortable & civilised option, standard
with washbasin or deluxe with shower & toilet.
4-berth couchettes:
Ideal for families, much more space per person than
6-berth couchettes.
6-berth couchettes:
A very economical option, far better than a seat for
just a few euros more...

You
should take a good guidebook. I think that the Lonely
Planets and the Rough Guides are about the best out there
for the independent
traveller. Both guides have everything you need - plenty
of background historical and cultural information, and lots
of
practical information. You won't regret buying one of
these guides..!
www.hotelscombined.com
is probably the best hotel search system I've seen, a free search tool
which checks all the main hotel booking sites (Opodo, Expedia,
Booking.com, Hotels.com, AsiaRooms, Travelocity, LateRooms and
others) to find the cheapest hotel rates. Set up in
2005, it's probably the best place to start for booking any
hotel online in any country, worldwide.
Other hotel sites
worth trying...
www.tripadvisor.com
is a good place to find independent travellers' reviews of the
main hotels, and it has the low-down on destination sights &
attractions, too.
www.booking.com is my own preferred hotel booking system
(Hotels Combined being a search/comparison system). It
has a simple interface, a good selection in most countries
worldwide, useful online customer reviews of each hotel, and
decent prices, usually shown inclusive of unavoidable extras
such as taxes (a pet hate of mine is systems that show one
price, then charge you another!).
Backpacker hostels...
If you're on a tight budget,
don't forget the hostels. For a dorm bed or an
ultra-cheap private room in backpacker hostels in most
European cities use
www.hostelbookers.com.
Travel insurance & health card...
Get travel insurance, it's essential...
Never travel without insurance from a
reliable travel insurer, with at least £1m or preferably £5m medical cover. It should also cover loss of
cash (up to a limit) and belongings, and cancellation. An annual
multi-trip policy is usually cheaper than several single-trip
policies even for just 2 or 3 trips
a year (I have an annual policy myself).
Don't expect travel insurance to bail you out of every missed
connection, but European international rail conditions of
carriage (known as the 'CIV') contain consumer protection
provisions that entitle you to travel forward by the next
available train if you miss a connection because of a delay to
the first train, irrespective of who operates which train, and
even if your ticket is in theory train-specific and
non-changeable.
Feedback from using
insurance for rail & ferry travel is always welcome. Here are some suggested insurers.
Seat61 gets a small commission if you buy through these
links.
If you're a
UK citizen travelling in Europe, you should apply for a free
European Health Insurance Card, which entitles you to free or
reduced rate health care if you become ill or get injured in
many European countries, under a reciprocal arrangement with
the NHS. This replaced the old E111 forms
as from January 2006. The EHIC card is available from
www.ehic.org.uk. It doesn't remove the need for
travel insurance, though.
Get a spare credit card, one designed for foreign travel with no currency
exchange loading & low or no ATM fees...
It costs nothing to take out an extra credit card.
If you keep it in a different part of your luggage so you're
not left stranded if
your wallet gets stolen, this is a form of extra travel insurance in itself. In addition,
some credit cards are significantly better for
overseas travel than others. Martin Lewis's
www.moneysavingexpert.com/travel/cheap-travel-money explains which
UK credit cards
have the lowest currency exchange commission loadings when you buy something
overseas, and the lowest cash withdrawal fees when
you use an ATM abroad. Taking this advice
can save you quite a lot on each trip compared to using your
normal high-street bank credit card! You can save money on ATM charges and exchange rates using a
Caxton FX euro currency Visa Card, or indeed the
multi-currency 'Global Traveller' Visa Card,
find out about these cards & sign up here.
Get an international SIM card
to save on mobile data and phone calls...
Mobile phones can cost a fortune to use abroad, and if you're
not careful you can return home to find some huge bills
waiting for you. I've known people run up over £1,000 in
data charges just by leaving their iPhone connected during a
simple trip to Europe. However, if you
buy a global SIM card for your mobile phone from a company
such as
www.Go-Sim.com you can slash the cost by up to 85% and
limit any damage to the amount you have pre-paid. Go-Sim
cuts call costs in 175 countries worldwide,
and you can receive incoming calls and texts for free in 75 countries. It's pay-as-you-go, so no nasty bills
when you get home. It also allows cheap data access for laptops
& PDAs. A Go-Sim account and any credit on it doesn't
expire if it's not used between trips, unlike some
others, so a Go-Sim phone number becomes your 'global phone
number' for life.
