Zurich Youth Hostel

Generally the youth hostels are really nice, the breakfast is really good, the staff is really polite and can help you with everything even with annoying roommates.

It was great, in a very attractive suburb of Zurich, with great views of the mountains and good facilities (beds, shower, food, washing machines etc all fine) really good, 24/7 friendly staff! And the great majority of people who I met (from all around the world) were great. I had one roommate who kept on smoking in our room, which I complained about and this was dealt with, but there was a bit of tension between us for a little while, however, this was also soon resolved too! And I left on good terms with everyone, after an excellent 7 days stay!

Clean and tidy. The staff are friendly. It looks quite distant from downtown, but one can travel easily by bus/tram in around 20 mins. Breakfast is nice. You can also buy a dinner set for around 20CHF, and it's really delicious. Recommended to all travelers on a budget.

The aesthetic of the hostel was great. The breakfast exceptional, but with very limited vegan options. The fact that the rooms had a pre-room with sinks and space for dressing and luggage storage without annoying the other people and with relative privacy was great!

Great location, friendly & helpful staff, spacious rooms, comfortable beds and pillows, clean showers & toilets, plenty of room in shared facilities, great breakfast, etc. Not a party hostel (if that's what you're looking for) but nice and quiet. It was easy to meet new people. You can also get great food and drinks at the bar/kitchen and they are reasonably priced for Zürich. The reception can also exchange money, in case you don't have any CHF yet. You will need 2 CHF as a deposit for your locker (you'll get it back); no need to bring a padlock for the locker. Shops, restaurants, and public transport in short walking distance. All up, a great place. I will visit again.
