Petit déjeuner avec possibilité de varier les plaisirs. Conseil avisé de la réceptionniste pour choix du restaurant du soir (Spitzhorn)
Un détail: une pince pour prendre les toasts une fois grillés :-)

Gutes Frühstück
GANZ ANDERS ALS ERWARTET. SCHLIMMSTE UNTERKUNFT WO ICH JE WAR.
Sehr dreckig. Der Staub ist sofort hochgewirbelt beim abstellen der Tasche.
Die Toilette hatte Flecken und man hat den Stuhlgang vom vorherigen noch wegmachen müssen.
Die wände habe ausgesehen, als würde alles Schimmeln. Zum glück war es kein Schimmel sondern der Putz war sehr billig gemacht.
Die decke war nicht verputzt etc.
Im gesamten hat es ausgesehen, als wäre alles neu renoviert worden aber bei der Hälfte abgebrochen, um geld zu sparen.
Wir sind leider erst sehr spät angereist, ansonsten wäre ich keine Nacht dort geblieben.
Der Mitarbeiter hat leider kein deutsch gesprochen.
Parkplatz wurde vorab reserviert, aber an der rezeption hat es geheißen, es wurde keiner reserviert und wir müssen schauen, wo wir parken.
Ich bin nicht sensibel. Wenn schimmel im Bad etc ist oder Staub, ist das für mich nicht schlimm. Aber wer es hier länger aushält als 1ne Nacht hat meinen Respekt.
Alle wo dahin müssen haben mein Beileid.
Entspricht NICHT den Bildern auf der Website.

Facile d’accès et proche de Gstaad .
Matelas très confortable !
Parti seul en chambre lit double (privée) :
-Petit Déjeuner pas assez varié du tout , pas de croissant / pains au chocolat . Et même pas de chocolat à tartiner alors que nous sommes tout de même en Suisse …
- Chambre très mal insonorisée.
- Sur 3 nuits et 4 jours , pas une femme de ménage pour aspirer ou changer les essuies de bains .
- Aucuns rangements sécurisé et même pas d’armoire qu’on puisse ouvrir ou fermer une simple étagère ouverte ..
- Pas de télévision 😨
-Pas de verrouillage de la porte
- Aucune prises dans la salle de bain ni de sèche cheveux il faut le demander à l’accueil .
- Les prises électrique sont pour les chargeurs à embouts fins pas les prise rondes (adaptateur à la réception)
- Personne à la réception qui parle français …
- Aucune déco dans les chambres au contraire peinture bâclée , chambres sans aucuns charme .
Parlons du prix , d’accord c’est la Suisse , et d’accord nous sommes le village à côté de Gstaad mais le prix ne vaut vraiment pas la qualité de l’hôtel ! Il faut un minimum avec des rangements , une télévision et un meilleur petit déjeuner même si compris dans le prix !
Globalement j’ai fait en sorte de rendre mon séjour agréable mais il y a pas mal de points à améliorer car c’est un hôtel /auberge avec un très bon potentiel !
Alors certes c’est surtout une auberge où il est possible d’avoir des dortoirs de beaucoup de personnes car c’est parfait pour des groupes qui se rendent la bas pour le ski ( en gros groupe pas besoin de télévision ou autre on passe des soirées entre amis , mais tout le monde ne pars pas la bas pour le ski et à partir du moment où il y a des chambres individuelles au double du prix il serait bien d’y mettre plus de confort et plus d’investissement.

Loved l the board games available and a separate play room for kids Loved free coffee til 11 a.m.
I was shocked,at first,in a 6 bed room,that it was co ed,I e.men and women.I was unaware of that wgen I made my reservation. The trip guys in my room were gentlemen and perfect roommates..

This was an amazing hostel - new, clean, quiet, spacious. Good breakfast. Lots of different areas for families and others. Had a car so easily able to get around the area. Would highly recommend.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Good location. nice and clean room.
The mattresses used in the bed could have been thicker. due to thin mattress - edge of the bed caused discomfirt.

Really clean and had everything we needed after a day of cycling.
Honestly can't think of anything.

The staff was super helpful and kind, the building was interesting and modern, everything is super clean and the breakfast is great! Never thought a hostel can be so comfortable.
4.1
Breakfast was good when supplies were available (dont expect to have a full spread at 10am). beer was on tap, and patio space was comfortable.
Everything had to be asked for, including towels and wifi information. Gstaad basic transit card is included, but also had to be asked for. Nothing in the room but sheets. Cooking staff were rude. Used the community grill and got yelled at by the chef to clean it, but did not provide anything to clean with.
I also would not call this a 'youth' hostel. There were several families with young children, and a huge group of older men. Was hoping to meet other travelers in the 20-40 range.

location, cleanness
Breakfast room too big, not great breakfast
4.1
Clean, quiet and good common area.
The dining/social area with large usable tables offers great space to do work, but there are NO ELECTRICAL OUTLETS for computers or cel phones ☹️!
4.1
Location: Short walk away from Saanen train & bus station.
Cleanliness: Very clean and nicely maintained
Staff: Jonas was amazing. Super friendly & helpful guy.
We booked a private room & got 1 with 4 bunk beds. Not a big thing but would have preferred double/twin beds
4.1
Well designed modern building that kept cool even in a heatwave. Plenty of floor and storage space in our twin room with private bathroom. Spacious reception and dining areas. Coffee machine and cold drinks. Excellent as a Youth Hostel, but not up to a hotel standard as regards bedding/bathroom. I liked the evening meal - provided at a very inexpensive price (though my husband wasnt so impressed). Breakfast buffet was plentiful but not luxurious. Bike storage was a lower level, where skis were stored in winter. Staff were wonderful, and spoke excellent English. We left a garment behind and they posted it on to us.
Our room was totally overlooked by the next house and was without net curtains for modesty!
4.1
Very nice and new hotel.
Bathrooms are very clean
Wifi signal is good everywhere
Rooms are large and bright
Breakfast and dinner were very good value and quality
Not the fault of the hotel but there was a group of teenagers that behaved very badly on the second floor.
Absolute savages
