I had been in this hostel 3 times and each time it was great. It is more hotel than hoste with good service, all is clean, staff is very helpfull. I love Zermatt but it is very expensive around there and this hostel is good option how to enjoy it. You can choose from room with shared bath and many... More

I stayed here in an 8 bed dorm for 7 nights while do a ski training course. The hostel is really well run and clean and the staff are very helpful and friendly. The price is very reasonable for what you get and this includes breakfast and evening meal. The quality of the food was superb and the portions are... More

This place is on top of a hill and the way up to the hostel is very steep. If you are carrying a lot of luggage, you may want to consider taking a bus or taxi. From the train station to the hostel, there is only 1 sign “Jugendherberge“ in the town that tells you the way. It took me... More

The hostel was basically a hotel, evidenced by the fact that a ton of families were staying there. Zermatt can at times be prohibitively expensive, and staying at this hostel is a great way to cut costs. It's clean, cheap-ish, well located, and a has a great social atmosphere (two thumbs up for the ping pong table). If one considers... More

On the top of a hill this is not handicap friendly. But if you're staying in the Zermatt region, don't pay for an expensive hotel, this hostel is clean, tidy, serves great food, still very close to shops and walks and has the BEST views of Mount Marmott! The meals served are of excellent quality, soup, main, salad bar and... More

Zermatt is very expensive especiallly for family of four. We took a chance because all hotels weds booked and this wasn't. We had a 4 bed room to ourselves. It was 2 bunkbeds which the kids loved. Beds were super clean and comfortable. They give u nice clean bedding. A plus for us was built in meals. With kids it... More

Location 1 word: upslope! The hostel is about 15mins walk from the Zermatt train station, but be prepared for an uphill journey. The hostel does state the uphill walk in its website; its just that the slope is tough when you have a heavy backpack! To add to the slope, there's a fleet of stairs right before the hostel! To...

Probably the best value you will find (unless you take the gondola up and ski down for lunch on the Italian side!) in all of Zermatt for anything. Altho this is a youth hostel there were people of all ages (including lots of families w/ small children---the only down-side as it tended to be a bit noisy and out of... More

As a family of 4 it was looking incredbily expensive for us to ski and stay in Zermatt, but we were determined to do it. We stumbled upon this Youth Hostel via internet and couldn't have been happier. Be aware that there is another youth hostel down the road, but this one seemed from other reviews, better for families. We... More
