There currently are a variety of options to travel by night train from Innsbruck (Austria) to Hamburg (Germany), taking between approximately 11 and 14 hours: Namely the NJ 40420 and the 304. These lines are operated by ÖBB and Snälltåget.
The Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) operate the Nightjet and Euronight trains (the latter together with other national railway agencies).
ÖBB night trains typically feature three types of carriages: seats, couchettes, and sleepers.
Seats are for the bravest, while couchettes and sleepers provide a more comfortable journey. In the couchettes, you can find simple and rather narrow berths, while the sleepers are equipped with proper beds and sometimes even a private bathroom. Couchettes accommodate up to six people, while sleepers are private compartments for one to three people.
They sometimes include a private bathroom or even a shower, sometimes only a sink.
Snälltåget offers night travel with various comfort levels on night trains between European cities.
Snälltåget provides three options: budget seats in open coaches, berths in shared compartments for up to six people, and private compartments for groups. All berths include pillows, sheets, blankets and duvets.
Both shared and private compartments transform from day seating configuration to night bed mode. With three berths per side and ladder access to upper berths, private compartments offer the best option for groups.
Animals are permitted in private compartments only. Bikes are not allowed, but collapsible bicycles can be transported as hand luggage or stored on luggage racks.
