Booking Train Tickets - Booking night trains or sleeper cabins

Q: What’s the difference between a seat and a sleeper cabin?

• Seats on night trains are like standard daytime train seats — sometimes reclining, but not intended for sleeping. These are usually the cheapest option. • Sleeper cabins offer beds or bunks and are designed for overnight travel. Depending on the country and route, they can be: - Shared compartments (4–6 passengers) - Semi-private (with curtains or gender-specific options) - Fully private cabins (solo or double occupancy) Prices reflect comfort and privacy level.

Can I choose the type of sleeper cabin when booking?

Yes — if multiple cabin types are available, you’ll see them listed as separate options when you search.

You can compare:

• Layout (shared vs private)

• Class level (1st class sleeper, economy sleeper, etc.)

• Price and refund rules

Each option includes a short description before checkout so you know exactly what you’re getting.

Will I have to share my cabin with other passengers?

It depends on the type of sleeper ticket you book:

• If it’s a shared or standard sleeper, you may be placed with other passengers of the same gender (depending on the country).

• If you book a private cabin, it will be for your exclusive use — either solo or with your travel companions.

The cabin type is always shown before payment. If you prefer full privacy, make sure to select a “Private” or “Exclusive” option when booking, if this option is available.

Are sleeper trains available in all countries?

No — not all countries operate night trains or sleeper services.

Rail Monsters offers night train bookings in select countries where:

• Sleeper cabins are available through our suppliers

• Ticket delivery is fully digital

• The service is reliable and officially supported

If no night trains appear for your route or dates, it's likely because:

• None are running that day

• The route isn’t supported by our system

We’re expanding sleeper coverage regularly — so more routes will appear over time.
