Night train from Munich to Krakow starting at 70 EUR
There currently are a variety of options to travel by night train from Munich (Germany) to Krakow (Poland), taking between approximately 13 and 14 hours: Namely the IC 416 and the IC 40416. These lines are operated by Deutsche Bahn, ÖBB, PKP Intercity and České dráhy.
Deutsche Bahn
Does Deutsche Bahn still operate night trains?
Deutsche Bahn (DB) exited the actual night train business in 2016. However, it operates around a dozen Intercity and Eurocity trains that run exclusively at night.
What are the travel conditions like on these trains?
These trains only have first and second class seats. The cars remain lit throughout the night and the seats cannot be reclined.
ÖBB
The Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) operate the Nightjet and Euronight trains (the latter together with other national railway agencies).
What types of carriages are available on ÖBB trains?
ÖBB night trains typically feature four types of carriages: seats, couchettes, the compact Mini Cabin, and sleepers.
What's the difference between seats, couchettes, Mini Cabins, and sleeper cars?
Seats are for the bravest, while couchettes, Mini Cabins, and sleepers provide a more comfortable journey. In the couchettes, you can find simple and rather narrow berths. The Mini Cabin is a compact sleeping option for solo travelers – two Mini Cabins can be combined for couples. Sleepers are equipped with proper beds and sometimes even a private bathroom. Couchettes accommodate up to six people, Mini Cabins are designed for one person each but two can be combined for couples, while sleepers are private compartments for one to three people.
What amenities do sleeper cars offer?
Sleepers may include a private bathroom or shower, or sometimes just a sink. The Mini Cabin bridges the gap between couchettes and sleepers, offering solo privacy at a lower price point.

PKP Intercity is Poland's national long-distance railway operator, running domestic and international train services throughout Poland and to neighboring countries.
České dráhy
ČD, the Czech national railway, operates domestic and cross-border passenger trains linking the Czech Republic with its neighbors.
