For my first trip, I booked a bunk in a sleeper cabin shared with three strangers for $84. For my second trip, I booked a private cabin with three bunks, a sink, and a vanity for $200. Nightjet has three tiers of sleeping accommodations, from reclining seats to bunks in shared and private cabins. During my first European train trip, I booked an $84 ride from Vienna to Venice in a shared cabin with six bunks. A year later, I booked a private cabin from Venice to Vienna with the same train line for $200.

Nightjet seating carriage - $40The author's seat on an overnight train in Europe. Joey Hadden/Business InsiderMy worst experience on an overnight train was in Europe. In October 2022, I took a 12-hour ride from Berlin to Vienna with the Austrian Federal Railway's OBB Nightjet line. Since I was traveling on a budget, I booked the cheapest accommodation on the train. The accommodation didn't include sheets or a pillow, as it's not recommended for overnight travel, a representative of the train line previously told Business Insider.

I knew my cabin would be small, but once on board, I was still shocked when I saw it for the first time. Inside the author's shared Nightjet cabin. Joey Hadden/InsiderAccording to OBB Nightjet, my cabin was built to fit six people inside a 74-square-foot space. I was surprised by how little personal space I had even when it was still just one other passenger and me. I couldn't imagine six people squeezing in there, and I was grateful that we weren't booked to the max.

On overnight trains, splurging for a private space is worth the price. In private cabins, travelers get a bed, a sink, a vanity, and sometimes a full bathroom. AdvertisementIf you want to sleep on an overnight train, book a private cabin. But when I've booked private cabins on Amtrak and Nightjet, ranging from $200 to $1,000, I've slept better with no disruptions. So I recommend private cabins to all travelers with rolling luggage, a nighttime routine, or a desire to sleep well.

Austria’s state railway ÖBB, which has been leading the revival of overnight services in recent years, has unveiled a new 33-strong fleet of night trains, which will debut in December 2023. From ensuite doubles to solo podsThe solo 'pods' allow for privacy in a dormitory-style setup. OBBThe seven-carriage trains will each have a capacity of 254 passengers, and will be composed of two seating cars, three couchettes and two sleeping cars. In the sleeping cars, all compartments will have their own bathroom, including a shower. That’s why we are working together to further expand the European night train network,” she said in a statement.
